In Detail Maybelline Super Black Colossal Kajal Review and My Experience
The packaging of superblack Kajal is quite literally the opposite of original colossals. Its a black packaging with yellow labelings. I have to admit, I like the new packaging more. It has a twist up retractable mechanism which is smooth. It closes with a satisfying click, so pretty safe to travel with.
The Maybelline super black kajal has a lovely creamy formula that glides smoothly. I am a person who does not like to put a pencil kohl on my upper lash line, I always go for a liquid eyeliner. However because the formula of this kohl is so smooth, I applied it on my upper lash line as well. It has a soft and super matte texture. There are really sparse tiny silver shimmers in the kajal which become prominent only when I look really attentively and close. I have highlighted the tiny shimmers on my hand swatch below. The Kajal is intensely pigmented. I love how the pigment is true black and there is absolutely no charcoal or brown tones whatsoever. If you like to flaunt bold kohl rimmed eyes, this Kajal is a must have.
The wear time of superblack Kajal was approximately 8 hours on my eyes. In this period, it did not fade of smudge at all. By 10 hours, I could notice some minor fading around the outer corners of the eye which was not very obvious. By 12 hours, it started fading a bit on my waterline. So I have to say I am really impressed with the staying power of this Kajal. Its absolutely water proof and smudge proof. In fact I need a good makeup remover to completely take it out.

MBF Advices
Although I am pretty -meh!- about the price hike, I honestly feel that the formula of the super black colossal kajal is way superior. I recommend this to everyone who likes intense black kohl on the eyes. Make sure to remove with a good quality makeup remover before retiring to bed because this does not come off completely easily.
MBF Rating
4.5/5
(I would have given it a 5 if the ingredients were mentioned because I feel its really important to know what we are putting on our skin.)
This looks like exactly what I wanted in a kohl, a little bit of shimmer makes the eyes look really defined like in your eyes picture. Totally love your reviews.
such a well pigmented kajal. I don’t mind paying that much if it can give me eyes so perfectly rimmed like yours. 😀
Why do you have such pretty eyes? Now I will need to buy this Kajal as well naa 😛 😀
I love this kajal and you have really well defined eyes. I will check this kajal out.
