Ingredients:

1. Almonds: 4-5
2. Castor Oil or Ghee: 1 teaspoon

Instructions:

1. Soak Almonds: Soak the almonds in water overnight or for at least 6-8 hours. This helps in softening them, making it easier to grind them into a fine paste.

2. Peel Almonds: After soaking, peel the almonds to remove the skin. The skin should come off easily after soaking.

3. Grind Almonds: Grind the peeled almonds into a smooth paste using a mortar and pestle or a grinder. Add a few drops of water if needed to facilitate the grinding process.

4. Prepare a Wick: Cut a thin strip of clean cotton cloth or use a clean cotton wick from a lamp. Ensure that it’s long enough to dip into the almond paste and protrude out of the container.

5. Assemble Setup: Take a small, heat-resistant container or a metal lid. Place the prepared wick in the center of the container, letting one end touch the bottom.

6. Pour Castor Oil or Ghee: Pour a teaspoon of castor oil or ghee into the container, enough to cover the bottom where the wick is placed.

7. Light the Wick: Light the top end of the wick with a matchstick or a lighter. Let it burn for a few minutes until it starts to smoke.

8. Collect Soot: Hold the container at a slight angle over the flame, allowing the smoke to collect on the inner surface of the container. The soot will gradually accumulate.

9. Repeat Process: Keep moving the container to ensure even collection of soot. You may need to relight the wick a few times until you collect a sufficient amount of soot.

10. Scrape Soot: Using a clean, dry tool like a spoon or spatula, carefully scrape off the collected soot from the container walls.

11. Mix with Almond Paste: Mix the scraped soot with the almond paste to form a smooth, black mixture. Adjust the amount of soot according to the desired intensity of the kajal.

12. Store in a Container: Transfer the prepared kajal into a clean, airtight container for storage. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

13. Usage: Apply the homemade kajal using a thin brush or a clean fingertip along the waterline of your eyes.

Notes:

• Ensure that all utensils and tools used are clean and dry to prevent contamination.
• Test a small amount of kajal on your skin before applying it to your eyes to check for any adverse reactions.
• Store the homemade kajal properly to maintain its consistency and prevent it from drying out.
