The Ruby shade delivers a rich, velvety matte finish when worn alone. It provides a smooth, opaque color that can be built up for greater intensity.

To extend the wear of your lip color, first outline your lips with the pencil, then gently fill in your entire lip area. This creates a base that helps lipstick adhere better and prevents feathering, making your lip look last significantly longer.

While the formula is designed to be nourishing and non-drying, individual sensitivities vary. We recommend checking the full ingredient list if you have specific sensitivities. If concerns persist, a patch test is always advisable.

Ensure you are using the provided sharpener, as it's designed specifically for this pencil's lead consistency. Apply light, even pressure and avoid twisting too aggressively. If the pencil is very cold, warm it slightly in your hands before sharpening.

First, ensure your lips are well-exfoliated and moisturized. If the pencil itself seems dry, try sharpening a small amount off the tip to reveal a fresh product. Storing it in a cool, dry place also helps maintain its creamy texture.

For extended wear, outline and then fill in your entire lip with the pencil before applying lipstick or gloss. This creates a base layer that grips onto color. You can also blot with a tissue after initial application and then reapply a second layer.

Practice makes perfect! Start with short, controlled strokes rather than one long line. Rest your elbow on a stable surface for a steadier hand. If you make a mistake, a small amount of concealer on a precise brush can clean up the edges.
