How to Make Organic Homemade Kajal

If you keep getting allergic reactions due to using store-bought kajal, try homemade kajal. Homemade kajal doesn't expire and you just need a few things to make lots of kajal, which is going to save you a lot of money.

Steps

1
Place a burning earthen lamp with castor oil in between two bowls and put a plate over it, as shown in the picture.
2
Wait for about 20 minutes and lift up the plate. Be careful, as the plate will be very hot. Use a cloth or tong to pick it up. You will find soot is collected at the bottom of the plate.

3
Scrape out the soot with a blunt knife or from the backside of a spoon. Take it out in a dry container and add a few drops of ghee (butter) in it. It will form a black paste, which is the kajal. You can store it in a steel box.

No, unless you are allergic to one of the ingredients.

Warnings

You have to mix the kajal with ghee with your index finger, which will stain your finger. It will take at least two days to get off. Alternatively, you could use a wooden stick or a tongue depressor.

Thanks!
