Lakme Eyeconic Kohl White: Review

Today the review is going to be on the famous Lakme Eyeconic Kohl White. These kohl pencils are available in 5 different shades: White, brown, Green, grey and Blue and the one I will be reviewing today is the shade white. We all love to use black kohl pencils but we rarely think of using a white one and the way kareena has used this one in the advertisement looks way too dramatic for daily look. She might have exaggerated the look for the advertisement but the fact is that while kohl does look great in the lower water line, if applied in decent quantity. While color is usually used to make the eye look open up and bright. Many people does not prefer using a white color instead they prefer a neutral/nude colored liner pencil, but I found that white works well for me.

My take on Lakme Eyeconic Kohl White:

This kohl pencil from Lakme comes in an all white retractable pencil form white is very easy to use as well as recognize due to its white color. There is nothing very special about the packaging; it’s a simple white retractable pencil. Its retractable form actually saves it from sharpening which causes products to get wasted.

The color is a bright white which gives full pigmentation in a single coat. As the product is meant to be used in the water line, it is completely free of shimmer particles. The company claims it to be smudge proof, water proof and with long staying power but the product is unable to stay on the waterline for more than 3 hours. It might stay a little longer but its intensity becomes very low after 3 hours. I have tried using the product in the inner corner to brighten up and it does work well in the inner corner as well. In the inner corner, the product does stay for more than 3 hours.

The product is easy to use, but care has to be taken while using it. The actual product is very creamy and thus the pencil might break if too much is taken out.  

Pros of Lakme Eyeconic Kohl White:

• Affordable
• Looks great both in the inner corner and lower water line
• Retractable form makes it easier to use
• Creamy texture
• Easy to blend
• Can also be used as an eyeshadow base (with proper blending)
• No shimmers

Cons of Lakme Eyeconic Kohl White:

• Does not stay for too long in the water line
• No ingredient list

Would I buy this product again?

Yes! Until I get a better alternative for my lower lash line, I will continue to repurchase it (I personally rarely use black kohl in my lower water line)

Do I recommend this?

Yes! As this is one of the most affordable product of this kind and it does work decently
