Troubleshooting
Pencil tip breaks easily during sharpening or application.
Ensure the pencil is stored in a cool environment. When sharpening, use a high-quality cosmetic sharpener and twist gently. If the tip is very soft, place the pencil in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes before sharpening.
The color doesn't last as long as expected.
For maximum longevity, ensure your lips are clean and dry before application. Outline and then fill in your entire lip with the liner to create a strong base for any additional lip products. Blot lightly after application.
Difficulty achieving a precise, clean line.
Always sharpen the pencil to a fine point before each use. For added stability, rest your pinky finger on your chin or cheekbone while applying to steady your hand.
Liner feels too dry or drags on the lips.
Ensure your lips are well-moisturized before applying the liner. A light layer of lip balm applied a few minutes prior can help, just blot off any excess before lining.

Setup & Application 1. Preparation: Ensure lips are clean, dry, and moisturized for the smoothest application. 2. Sharpen: For the most precise line, always ensure your Lip Contour 2.0 pencil is sharpened to a fine point using a cosmetic sharpener. 3. Outline: Starting from your Cupid's bow, gently outline your upper lip, then repeat for your bottom lip, connecting the lines at the corners. For a fuller look, subtly overline just outside your natural lip line. 4. Fill (Optional): For extended wear or an opaque matte finish, fill in your entire lip with the liner before applying lipstick or gloss. ### Compatibility This lip liner is designed to be compatible with a wide array of lip products, including Huda Beauty liquid lipsticks, cream lipsticks, lip glosses, and balms. Its versatile warm brown shade pairs well with nude, brown, peach, and even some red lip colors. ### Care & Maintenance - Storage: Store the pencil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat to prevent softening or melting, which can lead to breakage. - Sharpening: Use a high-quality cosmetic pencil sharpener. Twist gently to sharpen, avoiding excessive force to prevent tip breakage. Clean your sharpener regularly. - Hygiene: For sanitary reasons, avoid sharing your lip liner with others.
