Maybelline Colossal Kajal 12h Extra Black eyeliner review

Finding a great eyeliner is tricky... Getting the right thickness, longevity and ease of application sees a whole sea of options from pencils, to liquid, to gel to powder. 

This one from Maybelline is called colossal kajal 12h extra black and I was intrigued by the extra black and 12h claim. 

It is a roll up pencil which starts with a fine point but after one use it is a thick blunt, soft blob! It's easy to apply and glides on quite smoothly, but definitely not an option if you want a fine line. A great option however if you want to smudge the line out rather than have anything precise. 

It was definitely an opaque, strong black which I was very happy about, however it did not quite last perfectly for the 12hour claim... After a seven hour night out it had started to smudge and the colour had started to break up- but it definitely lasted much better than some other eyeliners I've tried (Sephora's was useless!). 

A great choice if you're looking for a blacker than black eyeliner which blends well and has better than most staying power.
