The use of kohl can be traced back to 3500 BC to ancient Kemet (Egypt )and the ancient kingdom of Punt. It was originally used for prevention of eye ailments but was also thought to protect from “the evil eye.” The use spread about Central and South Asia, the Mediterranean, Horn of Africa, and India, where it today has a variety of names like Kajal amd surma for lining eyes. Eritrean women have long applied kohl (kuul) for cosmetic purposes, as well as to cleanse the eyes, lengthen eyelashes, and to protect the eyes from the sun's rays. It is popularly used by the Oromo women of Ethiopia. In Nigeria it is called by the Yoruba name Tiro as well as Tozali or Kwalli in other west African groups. It is used on both adults and children to cleanse the eyes and give clearer sight and for beautification purposes by some women. #beautyhistory #eyeliner #kohl #kuul #tiro #tozali #kwalli #kajal #surma #eyemakeup #blackbeauty #blackhistory #sacredbeauty #ancientbeauty #africanwomen #africanculture #africantradition #africanbeauty (at Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cge9FqiO3oS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
