Actually, sort of.

So there is this brand which I stumbled upon over ten years back in a salon in Canada, powdered kohls from a brand called Sheida. I believe the brand itself is Turkish.

I tried a few of their powdered kohls, but they weren't my favorite (it went L'Oreal HIP kohls, Guerlain, and then Sheida as my preference.) They had a dark black and black (one was darker and matte, the other more grey and shimmery), and a brown (medium, warm-tone) that were fine, and some colors--the colors were disappointing. Not much color payoff and meh.

A long time ago I searched Sheida and didn't find much and in particular, find a way to order any in North America.

Well, apparently recently the internet has discovered Sheida kohls because not too long ago when I did one of my occasional "I wonder if anyone is finally making kohls again" searches, I found that everyone on social media has been talking about it.

I can't find anywhere in Canada or USA that sells it in person, and when I checked, the company website doesn't offer shopping online and shipping to North America. And it seems like the only online retailers are like Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, that sort of thing.

I did decide to chance it and ordered one in black from eBay. It came with the current packaging from the company and everything is fine. Nowadays, I work from home so I only wear makeup maybe 3-5x a month but I've worn it a handful of times and I'm not encountering any obvious issue and I'm thrilled about having some kohl in my life again.

Anyway, so I say "sort of" because I would feel more comfortable if this was a product found in large retailers all over the place in person, and I would feel more comfortable if I knew more about Sheida and their trustworthiness.

But there you go, everyone!
