Already in ancient Egypt, the use of the kohl was very appreciated ...
This fine black, dark gray or blue powder is obtained from powder of antimony which is a " metalloid " with a metallic color. Its name comes from stibi in Greek (in Arab Khul).

We apply it with a wooden stick, dipped into the rose water, level with lashes, blindly in a light movement leaving the internal corner of the eye towards the temple.
A small itch can be felt, it is the normal reaction which goes very fast.
Eyes waterl what dilutes the Khol powder.

It can also be applied as "eyeliner" to highlight or to underline eyelids.
It is advised to remove with a cotton and a little cream the kohl which has poured, what allows to define with accuracy the outline of the eye.
The Kohl is generally kept in a small wooden phial decorated in a craft way, and endowed with the stick intended to use the product.
