kajal
Dark eye cosmetic
Kajal is a dark cosmetic, traditionally made from soot or lampblack, used to line the eyes.
Common throughout South Asia and the Middle East, it serves both decorative and cultural purposes—mothers often apply it to infants' eyes to ward off the evil eye.
Similar to kohl, though kajal typically has a softer, more paste-like consistency: She rimmed her eyes with kajal before the wedding.
