FAQs

Can I use this pencil on my waterline?

Yes, the Artist Color Pencil's formula is designed to be safe for use on the waterline, offering definition and color to the inner rim of the eye.

How do I clean the pencil if it gets dirty?

Wipe the exterior of the wooden pencil with a dry or slightly damp (not wet) soft cloth. Avoid getting water inside the pencil or on the sharpened tip.

What is the best way to sharpen this pencil?

Use a sharpener specifically designed for cosmetic pencils. Sharpen gently in short strokes until the desired point is achieved. Avoid pressing too hard, which can cause the wood to splinter or the lead to break.

Is this pencil waterproof?

The product offers a long-lasting wear with a matte finish, but it is not explicitly described as fully waterproof. It is smudge-resistant once set.

How many shades are available?

The Artist Color Pencil is available in an array of trend-led shades, including matte and shimmering cosmic colors, offering limitless creative possibilities.

Can I use this for contouring or highlighting?

Yes, certain neutral shades can be effectively used for subtle contouring or defining features like cheekbones. Its blendability makes it suitable for creating soft shadows.

How long does the pencil typically last?

With regular use, and depending on how often it's sharpened, a single pencil can last for several months. Usage frequency and sharpening habits will influence longevity.

Troubleshooting

Pencil tip breaks during sharpening.

Ensure you are using a quality cosmetic sharpener designed for wooden pencils. Sharpen slowly and gently. If the lead is excessively soft, you may need to refrigerate the pencil for a short period before sharpening.

Product is difficult to blend.

Work in small sections and blend immediately after application, as the formula sets relatively quickly. Ensure your eyelid or lip area is properly prepped and moisturized if needed.

Color appears less intense than expected.

Build up the color gradually with multiple light applications rather than attempting to achieve full opacity in one swipe. For deeper intensity, layer shades or use over a complementary base.

Pencil feels dry upon application.

Check that the pencil has been stored correctly and that the cap has been replaced securely after use. Sharpening a dry tip can sometimes expose fresher, less dry product. Ensure lips or eyelids are adequately hydrated before application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Artist Color Pencil is ready for immediate use upon purchase. To ensure optimal precision, it is recommended to sharpen the pencil before its first use and between subsequent uses as needed.

Compatibility: This product is designed for use on eyes, lips, brows, and cheeks. It is compatible with most standard cosmetic sharpeners.

Care: Store the pencil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the formula. Clean the exterior of the wooden casing with a dry or slightly damp cloth if necessary. Always ensure the cap is securely replaced after each use to prevent the pencil from drying out.
