Follow this easy makeup guide to replicate Bebo's kajal-perfected eyes!

Prepare The Eyes

To perfect the kajal-rimmed eyes, you need to prep the eye area first. Begin by cleansing your face with a mild cleanser and applying a hydrating eye cream. This will prevent dryness and give your face the required hydration.

Use a primer or concealer on the eyelids to form a smooth base. It will ensure that the kohl remains intact for longer hours.

Choose The Right Kohl Pencil

'The Buckingham Murders' movie star's statement eye makeup is all about defining the eyes with dark kohl. Pick a waterproof, high-pigment kajal or kohl pencil that forms a clear line without tugging. You can always opt for creamy-textured kajal or gel-based kajal pencil to flaunt the deep, rich black finish.

Give Definition To Lash Lines

Next step, draw a prominent line on the upper eyelash line. Ensure to stay as near to the roots of the eyelashes. Then apply the kajal to the lower lash line and extend it a bit more at the outer corner to form an elongated look.

If you love a dramatic look, you can reapply or layer the kohl till you get that desired intensity.

Smudge It For Smoky Effect

A smudged kohl appearance is especially ideal for creating a sultry, glamorous effect. To achieve this vibe, post kohl application, gently smudge it a bit with a smudge brush or cotton swab. Pay attention to blending it to the lower eyelash line outwards to create a smokey effect. You can always apply a dark brown or matte black eyeshadow over the kajal to set it and increase its intensity.

Tightline For Intensity

Tightlining or applying kajal to the upper waterline is a makeup method that gives depth to your eyes. What's more? It gives your lashes a fuller appearance. To recreate this technique, softy lift the eyelid and apply the kohl along the inner rim of the upper eyelash line. It instantly enhances the eyes and gives them the ideal statement look!

Amp Up With Mascara

Applying a mascara that lengthens and volumizes the hair will finish the look. For an eye-opening look, curl your lashes and add a coat of mascara to your upper and lower lashes. This improves the overall appearance and draws attention to your eyes.

Go Minimal On Remaining Makeup

Balance is pretty important to mimic Kareena's kohl-perfected eyes. Simply put, when you are defining the eyes with dark kohl, the rest of your makeup should be subtle. It will give that added focus to the eyes as intended.

Use a delicate, dewy base and a neutral or natural lip colour to maintain equilibrium. The dramatic eye look can be complemented without being overpowered by light contour and a hint of sparkle on the cheekbones.
