Indian women love kohl and the alluring look it creates. But removing kohl is usually a difficult task that involves using many products. We gathered the best ways and products to take off that stubborn kohl without much fight:

Be gentle:  Be gentle with your eyes. Tugging can make kohl accumulate together which is more difficult to remove. Also, tugging can give you fine lines on your under eyes.

Makeup wipes: The easiest way to remove eye makeup. Try MAC wipes (they are the best albeit a lil expensive) or the almond oil ones from Kara. Pick wipes which have oil as opposed to toners in them.

Oil-free makeup remover: All those feel makeup removers never work on kohl, might be using the wrong one. Pick an oil-free makeup remover and always use two cotton balls, one for each eye. We like the one by Sephora and Neutrogena.

Use coconut or olive oil: The best and natural way to remove kohl is to dip a cotton ball in oil and wipe the kohl off. But taking off the oil from your eyes will take some time!

Baby oil: Baby oil is gentle and another great way to remove kohl easily! Baby oil removes makeup in a jiffy and is not as oily as coconut or olive oil.

Vaseline: Massage a little bit of Vaseline on your lash line and remove with a cotton ball. Use a towel to remove the Vaseline residue.

Buy a makeup remover cloth: It is honestly the best investment. All you need is some water and the microfiber cloth cleans your eyes in a jiffy!
