Is it imitating women for men to use kohl?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: The kohl that men use is the same kohl that women use. Is it permissible to use it?

Answer:
It is permissible for men and women to use it. It is permissible for men and women to use kohl, but using ishm is better, and that is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to apply.
