FAQs
What are the main moisturizing ingredients in this eye pencil?
The pencil is primarily moisturized and soothed by shea butter and macadamia seed oil.
Can I use this eye pencil on my waterline?
Yes, the pencil is formulated to be soft and soothing, making it comfortable for application on the waterline.
How do I achieve a precise line with this pencil?
Regularly sharpen the pencil using a quality makeup sharpener designed for soft liners. For very fine lines, ensure the tip is freshly sharpened.
Is this eye pencil suitable for sensitive eyes?
Yes, it is formulated with botanical oils and butters, and is mineral-based, making it suitable for sensitive eyes and skin.
How can I make the eyeliner last longer?
Apply an eyeshadow primer before the eye pencil. You can also set the line with a coordinating eyeshadow using a small, dense brush for increased longevity.
What is the best way to store the eye pencil?
Store the pencil in a cool, dry place with the cap securely fastened to prevent it from drying out.
Can this pencil be used for anything other than lining the eyes?
Yes, its creamy texture and blendability allow it to be used as an eyeshadow base, for smudging effects, or even for subtle highlights on the face.
Troubleshooting
Pencil is too soft and breaks when sharpening.
Ensure you are using a sharpener specifically designed for soft eye pencils. Sharpen gently and avoid excessive pressure. Store the pencil upright in a cool environment.
Color payoff is not as intense as expected.
Build up the color by applying multiple light layers. Ensure the pencil tip is adequately sharpened for concentrated application. Try warming the tip slightly on the back of your hand before application.
Application is smudging easily.
For longer wear, apply a thin layer of eyeshadow primer before using the pencil. Consider setting the liner with a matching eyeshadow shade using a fine-tipped brush. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed when not in use to prevent drying.
Pencil feels dry or tugs at the skin.
Sharpen the pencil to expose a fresh, creamy surface. Ensure the pencil has been stored correctly and is not old. Warm the tip slightly on the back of your hand before applying to the delicate eye area.
