Will Kajal improve babies eyebrows?

Mar 21, 2019

It is a proven fact that Kajal improves babies eyebrows, provided it is made out of natural ingredients with medicated values.

In many parts of India, applying Kajal to baby eyes is an age-old tradition. Its application is believed to ward off the evil eye besides making them clear, bright, big and attractive. Though today’s generation may stamp it as a myth or may find no logic in it, yet it’s true that in the 1970s and 80s, we could hardly come across children with spectacles, whereas today, we can see a large number of school going kids wearing powered glasses. The reason behind this change can be various but it is a reality that each and every mother of today is undergoing this dilemma “Is Kajal good for baby eyes?”.

There was a time when Kajal was an unbranded segment and whatever was available in the market, people used to buy that. But now the scenario is different, there are so many branded eyebrow pencils for newborn babies that the parents are left with no choice but to go with the commercial product that claims to be waterproof, smudge free and long lasting. In other words, it is the Kajal, that drives the cosmetic sales. However,  the new generation pediatricians have come up with multiple reasons to avoid applying Cosmetic Kajal in baby eyes as they have high levels of chemicals (like lead and Zinc) and heavy metals that can lead to itchiness, watery eyes, and other allergies, in addition to affecting the brain, internal organs, and bone marrow, that can later on, lead to anemia, low IQ, and convulsions.

While it is necessary that the health care providers educate the public regarding the different types of Kajal available in the market, its pros and cons, its composition, and its adaptability to the little eyes with respect to the baby’s age, the preliminary steps that can be undertaken prior to applying Kajal in baby eyes are:

  1. Parent education by Pediatricians and Ophthalmologists regarding the advantages and disadvantages of applying Kajal to baby eyes...
  2. Display of related materials in the Health Care departments.
  3. Regulatory directions to the manufacturers regarding the authenticity of the product.

Despite all the noises against the use of Kajal in baby eyes, it is routinely used in children, in India. This is because the tradition of applying Kajal to baby eyes is so intertwined with India's tradition that it is almost impossible to ignore it.

Today, the old Ayurvedic beliefs and traditions are becoming more and more popular and relevant. In the Ayurvedic system, the kajal is made keeping in view the health aspects of eyes rather than the cosmetic benefits. Though there are few herbal kajals available in the market in the form of paste, gel, stick, and pencils...it is always ideal to use a trustworthy product, and Sreedhareeyam Herbal Baby Kajal is the present talk of the town. The product is 100 % herbal, dermatologically tested, quality assured and certified, and manufactured in Sreedhareeyam Ayurvedic Ophthalmology Centre. The reasons behind the wide acceptance of Sreedhareeyam Herbal Baby Kajal is its hand-picked herbal combination that has Antimicrobial & Anti-inflammatory properties that protect the eyes from infection, guards the eye against sunburns, nourishes the eyes, thickens the brows,...thus improving the overall appearance. Instead of using eyebrow pencil for newborn babies, you can apply this herbal paste with your fingertip. The benefit of applying Kajal with the fingertip is, it enhances the wellness of babies eyes in addition to nurturing the bonding between the mother and child.

Nutshell is, Kajal improves the babies eyebrows and can be used on a daily basis as the ingredients used for its preparation have various medicinal values. The only factor you need to take care of while applying kajal to baby eyes is, your hands should be extra hygienic else they may transmit infections to the baby. Also, your fingernails should be decently trimmed otherwise it might accidentally hurt your baby's eyes while rubbing the kajal on.

With that said, Sreedhareeyam’s Herbal Baby Kajal is good for baby eyes as it contains no chemicals and so can be easily removed by dabbing a drop of olive oil or by washing the eyes with just plain water.
