Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Comments on Kajal available to you cant be offered without seeing or testing it. ON the other hand procedure to prepare it at home is: Basic ingredient in Kajal is lamp soot. Light a cow ghee lamp, allowed soot to form on a silver cup bottom. After sufficient soot accumulates, remove cup away from the lamp. After cup cools down, straight away apply soot to eyelids. No other ingredients needed. Make fresh kajal daily as needed. Only difficulty in this approach is need of Indian cow ghee. In India, itself it is being sold at Rs 400/- a kg, only for medicine purpose. For storage and easy application, people add cow ghee or castor oil to make a smooth paste. The contents of such a Kajal can be assured to be free from lead or zinc oxide.
