Hola ladies! :D I am probably the last person on the planet to review Maybelline’s Colossal Kohl in Turquoise. The reason for the delay is because I always thought that this particular shade would not suit me. I am more comfortable with midnight blues and olive greens. But I got a chance to use it when I was sent the Valentine’s Insta Glam Gift Kit by Maybelline. Read on to see if my fears were confirmed or my doubts were busted! ;)  
Product Name: Maybelline Colossal Kohl True Turquoise

My take:
·        The kohl is true to its name, a bright turquoise. It will suit fair and medium skin tones perfectly but might look a bit OTT in deeper complexions.
·        The texture is smooth and creamy and applies with ease without any tugging or pulling. I have even used it as a upper lid eyeshadow because of its texture.
·        It can be used both on the waterline and on the upper lash-line. It does not sting at all. I have worn this while having contact lenses on and there was no irritation
·        Staying power on my non-oily upper eye lid is pretty long just like Colossal kajal and it literally stays on till I wipe it out with makeup remover. The longest I have worn this on the upper eyelid is 7 hours. On the lower lashline there is a bit of fading after 4-5 hours.
·         The cheerful yellow packaging of colossal range makes it a breeze to search for them even in a cluttered vanity :D Love!!
·        Price is quite affordable compared to other high end brands and the quality, just like any other Maybelline products, is top notch too!
·        Available anywhere :P
Rating: 4/5

Finally, here is how I choose to wear the Maybelline Colossal Kohl in Turquoise. I have applied a generous amount of the kohl at the center of my eye lid and blended the inner, outer and crease with a matte brown eyeshadow. On the lower lash line it’s the kohl again, but the waterline has colossal kajal. I have completed the look with Colossal Volume Express Mascara. (A thin line of liquid black eyeliner is also used. The liner used here is Rimmel London’s Amazing Black liner. Read review by clicking here)
