FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the powder-pencil formulation?

The powder-pencil formulation provides a super soft texture that glides effortlessly and is easily blendable, allowing for a soft or smoky eye effect.

Can I use this eyeliner for a winged look?

Yes, you can create a soft wing. For a sharper, more graphic wing, you might find a liquid liner more suitable, but this pencil can achieve a diffused or smudged wing.

Is this eyeliner suitable for sensitive eyes?

The product is described as having a soft powder-pencil formulation enriched with oils, which generally makes it comfortable. However, individual sensitivity may vary. It is always recommended to perform a patch test if you have very sensitive eyes.

How do I achieve a smoky eye with this pencil?

Apply the pencil along your lash line, then use a small blending brush or even a clean fingertip to smudge and diffuse the line outwards before it sets.

What is the best way to sharpen this eyeliner?

Use a sharp cosmetic sharpener specifically designed for eyeliner pencils. This will ensure a clean point without breaking the soft lead.

Can I use this on my waterline?

Yes, the soft texture makes it suitable for lining the waterline for added definition.

Why is the product non-returnable?

The product is non-returnable for hygiene reasons, as is common with cosmetic products once opened or used.

Troubleshooting

Pencil is too hard to apply

Ensure the pencil has been sharpened correctly. Warm the tip slightly by rubbing it gently on the back of your hand before applying.

Eyeliner smudges easily

Allow the liner to set for a minute after application. For increased longevity, consider using an eyeshadow primer or setting the liner with a dark eyeshadow using a fine brush.

Difficulty sharpening the pencil

Use a high-quality cosmetic sharpener designed for softer pencils. Ensure the sharpener's blades are clean and sharp.
