1. Clean Your Face Well:

This is the most important tip to start with. Before putting any makeup, you should cleanse your face well. Before applying kajal, you should clean the areas around your eyes well. Oily skin makes your eyes turn smudgy faster. After cleaning, dab ice cubes around your eyes, so that the kajal won't smudge by the oil.

2. Choose A Perfect Kajal:

There are several products which may cause your eyes to turn itchy or make you get tears after applying, which will only smudge your kajal even more. Choosing an appropriate product means you can get beautiful eyes. There are smudge-proof and water-proof kajals that are available in the market.

3. Know The Right Way To Apply Kajal:

Never draw lines from the inner corner of your eyes. Many of you do so, but as the inner corners are usually watery, it can smudge your kajal. Start from the outer corners and take short strokes to fill the contour.

4. Apply A Concealer:

If you have the problem of dark circles, your eyes will look dull and smudgy, no matter how well you apply the kajal. Apply a concealer around your eyes and blend it well with the skin. Now, apply kajal and make your eyes appear darker and deeper. This process will only make your eyes look more prominent without smudging the kajal.

5. Be Tricky With The Eyeshadow:

If you want to follow the hacks to apply kajal perfectly, eyeshadow can save you from getting an all-smudgy look. You just need to choose the similar shade that of your kajal and with a flat brush, apply it on the inner leads after using a kajal pencil. It will keep your kajal intact.

6. Go For A Darker Effect:

Dark and defined eyes look amazing, right? But many of you make your eyes appear dark by just applying strokes after strokes. That will surely turn it smudgy. Dip your kajal pencil into a gel liner pot and then apply it. There will be no smudge, no zombie look; only dignified and beautiful eyes that you will get.

7. Choose A Gel Eyeliner:

If your eyes are extremely sensitive and watery, you should switch to a gel liner instead of a kajal pencil, as it will turn smudgy. Use an angular brush to apply the gel liner and that will give you the same intense look as that of a kajal.

8. Make It Smoky:

This trick is especially for those who like it to be smudgy. If you are not fond of the defined lines and want to create a mysterious and dusky look, you can go for smudgy and smoky eyes instead.

Whatever you do with your eyes, use the best-suited product and never forget to remove the makeup before going to bed.
