I have been using Kajal liner and just recently found out that the sale of authentic kajal and kohl is prohibited in the US as they can contain very high levels of lead. The kind I use is from a company called Hashmi, their official website does not mention lead one way or the other, but I bought mine from seller on a popular auction site which claims it is lead free. Does anyone know whether these claims are true or false? To be really honest, I'm kind of scared but I love how dark the liner is.

Kajal eyeliners contains lead. Yes, the Kajal products is also illegal in the United States. Please choose an eyeliner that won't harm your eyes and skin.

Thanks for your help, I am going to stop using it. It's too risky.
