I recently purchase lakme absolute kohl ult.and to my surprise it is so extensive. Lakme this conversation is for you- I am not going to eat this pencil . ( Its is not a diamond its kohl) How am I suppose to sharpen this. Why dont you come up with an idea which is called sharpner. Which cost Rs 5 only ( add that to the pencil cost) we are ready to pay for it. It is black but not super black and stay in the waterline for a very short duration. As an indian brand you should be perfect. After all we are not china products. Indian product should be worth buying worldwide. Its not good for sensitive skin as it does not come out easily and redness of eye or around the eye is a common thing happining. It stays for 8 hours and is smug free but not for working ladies like me.
