Eyes are the windows to your soul... so much of your real self shows through those peepers.
It’s no surprise that lining them with kohl not only amps up your look, it is also believed to ward off the evil eye (because who needs the negativity, right?).
No wonder the use of kohl goes way back in history.
And now, eyeliners have gone excitingly graphic!
