  • Hi Guys, this summer my mother taught me how to make Kajal/ Kohl like the old traditional way. It was fascinating to see how it is done!
    You will need:
    •A bell metal plate ( It is a form of bronze with a higher tin content) also known as Kansa plate with upward edges (Kansa is considered to be the healing metal of Ayurveda)
    • Container
    •Pure almond oil
    •Cotton ( used to light clay Diya)
    •Mustard oil (Sarso ka tel )
    •Spoon
    •Pestle & Mortar (for crushing the almonds)
    •Matchstick or Lighter
    •Crush 5 almonds using pestle and mortar, Make a cotton pad as shown in the video and put the crushed almonds
    •Add 2 spoons of Carom (Ajwain) and close the cotton pad. Fill mustard oil in the clay diya to 1/4th capacity.
    •Transfer the cotton roll to the clay diya to immerse in the mustard oil, Once it all soaked in add more oil to the clay diya and light it.
    •Use three, pillar-shaped containers to support the bell metal plate on top of the diya.
    •The plate should be high enough to not completely put off the diya light and it should be close enough for the diya fire to deposit the black ink. you can see the fire lapping at the Kansa plate making it black.
    •Wait until the entire mustard oil is exhausted. The black ash collected is the kajal/kohl. Collect it using a spoon and keep it in a small box.
    Take a small amount almond oil and mix it into the collected black powder. Store in a cool place.
    •You can use the powder for eyeshadow it will prevent the kajal from smudging. Make sure you keep it in a pan so that it is easy to take the product using a flat brush.

    Hello everyone!
    I hope you and your family are keeping healthy and staying safe. I'm currently working on my graduation project where I'm trying to understand the relationship between beauty and personal grooming. I would love to hear your thoughts on the same!
    I'd really appreciate it if you'd take five minutes of your time to fill in this quick survey.

    The South Indian way of making homemade Kajal is as follows:
    Make a fine paste of sandalwood by rubbing the pure wood on a flat soft stone mortar & a fine paste of Hirda & both to be mixed well & applied on the bottom of a clay pot.
    The wick is made out of a cotten cloth 6"×6" & is soaked in the juice of Bringiraj plant leaves & dried in sunlight- repeat for for 5days
    Keep it on a mud Diya. Caster Oil is used to lit the wick & the pot with the above paste with some support to allow air.
    The black soot formed is then mixed with castor oil & stored in a silver container for use.
    Sandal / Hirda / Castor oil will give cooling effect to the eyes & Bringiraj will improve the eye sight

    beautiful video.
    I guess the art of making and storing kajal varies a little by region in India, but the concept is the same. My grandmoms - dadi and nani - used to make kajal for us with home made ghee, in a clean clay diya and collect the soot in beautiful artistically engraved and ornate brass kajal daanis for application. The whole concept of kajal making is so holistic and artistic.
