Maybelline Colossal Kohl Pencils - Why we still love them?

It has been years since Maybelline launched the Colossal line which included some incredible products that gained much popularity among the ladies. And one such product was the Maybelline Colossal Kohl pencils which came in 4 shades. This is not a review of the much loved kohl pencils but just a glimpse of why we loved it so much and will still continue loving them.

When I first bought Jewelled Jade, I was still in college. The colour, the formula, the price made me smitten to this even more. I have repurchased the same shade along with Crushed Emerald and Smoked Silver about 4 months back. Maybelline has recently come up with the Lasting Drama Eyestudio Gel Liner Pencils (the shades and the formula are bang on) but I still feel the Colossal Kohl pencils have a special place in our hearts as one of the earlier used coloured kohl pencils.

Maybelline Colossal Kohl Pencils


Why we loved them?
  • Shades: Apart from Black, there are 4 more shades, Crushed Emerald, Jewelled Jade, Turquoise and Smoked Silver
  • Price: 249 INR. They are truly affordable. (Nykaa sells two pencils for 249 INR)
  • Formula: It requires no tugging and is very smooth to apply
  • Pigmentation: Beautiful colour pay off in just one swipe
  • Style of pencil: Retractable and thus freeing us from sharpening after every 2-3 uses
  • Staying Power: Stays easily up to 8 hours on oily lids 
  • Quantity: 0.35 grams 

Swatch Time!!!

Left to Right:
Crushed Emerald, Smoked Silver, Jewelled Jade  


Crushed Emerald: A beautiful green with subtle shine to it.
Smoked Silver: More of a grey with blue undertones.
Jewelled Jade: A greenish blue.


Presently I have 3 of these and I use them every alternate day. I typically use them when I want to use some eye shadow but my stringent schedule doesn't allow to do so. Although the range has limited shades yet my love for these will perpetuate for a long long time.

HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream

Hello lovelies! Today I am reviewing a moisturizer: HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream. I had purchased this in the month of November anticipating the dry winter to take a toll on my skin. I generally have combination to oily skin all through the year except in the winter. However, this winter my skin was more on the normal side than drier. The only moisturizer that I use, irrespective of the season, is my Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion. Despite having oily skin, I really enjoy keeping my skin hydrated as it also helps to check further oil secretion. I came to know about the brand, HealthVit, from Nykaa when I was searching for a facewash, which is indeed a very good facewash. Hence, this brand a rather good impression to me.   HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream About HealthVit: HealthVit is a part of West-Coast Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. and primarily manufactures natural health and dietary supplements, personal care products, ...
