Description
Define your eyes with a deep, black line using the Kiko Colour Kajal pencil. This kohl is applied inside the eye, along the inner rim. Its colour, intense black, shows up from the first stroke.
Its soft, creamy formula glides over the eyelid without tugging. It allows a precise, graphic or blended line for a smoky look. The Kiko Colour Kajal pencil can also be applied to the eyelid, along the lash line, for an oriental look.
The pencil is made of wood, with a coloured cap that shows its shade at a glance. It is sharpened like a classic pencil. Shade 01 Black is the black of the range, which also has ten colour shades. The Kiko Colour Kajal pencil slips into any make-up bag.
Our verdict on this Kiko Colour Kajal pencil
Review written by the Air d’Orient team · Updated on 19 September 2026
We have read buyers’ feedback on this Kiko Colour Kajal pencil to pick out what comes up most often, good and not so good.
The strong points
- A truly intense black, much appreciated for defining the eyes.
- A soft lead that is easy to apply, on the waterline as well as on the eyelid.
- A comfortable formula: for many, even on the inner rim of the eye.
- A wooden pencil to sharpen, with a coloured cap to find the right shade.
Good to know
- A creamy lead that can run: with humidity, watery eyes or heat, the line can smudge by the end of the day. Apply a black eyeshadow over it to set it.
- A lead sensitive to heat: it can break in strong heat. Keep it cool and leave it in the fridge for a few minutes before sharpening it.
Where we lean: for anyone who likes a soft, black kohl that is easy to apply along the rim of the eye, this is a Kiko Milano classic. For a line that does not budge, the Flormar waterproof pencil below holds up better against water. For more kohls, browse our range of oriental kohl.
