Please dont use kajal of any brand on your baby's skin. It might lead to a white spot which is permanent. This condition is called as chemical leucoderma. White spot can appear on the cheek also after couple of months. So stop using any sort of kajal on her delicate skin. If it does not go away then you will have to consult a dermatologist for treatment.
