This cult-favourite eyebrow pencil is your key to achieving perfectly defined, natural-looking brows in seconds. Its unique angled tip allows for precise application, whether you're drawing fine, hair-like strokes or filling in larger areas. Paired with a built-in spoolie brush, it effortlessly blends colour for a soft, polished finish that resists sweat and oil, making it an essential for the Mauritian climate.

• What it is: A dual-ended, automatic eyebrow pencil featuring a flat, angled tip on one end and a spoolie brush on the other.
• What it does: Effortlessly fills, defines, and grooms eyebrows for a natural yet polished look. The formula provides long-lasting wear that holds up against humidity and sebum.
• Who it's for: Perfect for everyone, from beginners seeking a foolproof tool to experts wanting a quick, reliable pencil for daily use.
• Shade: 06 Dark Gray is a cool-toned, soft black shade ideal for those with dark brown to black hair, providing definition without appearing harsh.
• Texture & Finish: A firm, waxy pencil that glides smoothly without tugging, delivering a natural matte finish that mimics real brow hair.

1. Brush Up: Use the spoolie end to brush your brow hairs upwards and outwards to see their natural shape.
2. Fill & Define: Twist up the pencil tip (only 1-2mm) and use the angled edge to outline your desired shape and fill in any sparse areas with light, feathery strokes.
3. Blend Out: Use the spoolie again to gently brush through your brows, blending the colour and softening any harsh lines for a seamless, natural finish.

Mindful Tip: Already have a brow pencil you like? Finish it first to prevent waste. This pencil is a great replacement when you're ready for a reliable, easy-to-use option.

When to Apply (AM):

Eyebrows are typically one of the final steps in your makeup routine. Apply after your skincare, sunscreen, and base makeup (foundation, concealer, powder). This ensures a clean canvas for precise application.

How to Remove (PM):

The wax-based formula is long-wearing. To remove it completely without tugging, use an oil-based cleanser or a dedicated bi-phase eye and lip makeup remover as the first step of your double cleanse. Gently massage the remover over your brows, then follow with your regular water-based cleanser.

Step-by-Step Guide:

• Frequency: Use daily as part of your makeup routine.
• Amount: Only twist up 1-2mm of the pencil lead. The formula is pigmented, so a little goes a long way.
• Prep: Start with clean, dry brows. If you have oily skin, you can lightly dust them with translucent powder first to improve longevity.
• Groom: Use the spoolie brush to comb brow hairs into place.
• Define: Use the sharp, thin edge of the angled pencil to draw a clean line along the bottom of your brow. This creates a defined shape.
• Fill: Use the wider, flat side of the pencil to fill in sparse areas using short, upward strokes that mimic the direction of your natural hair growth.
• Blend: Flip to the spoolie end and gently brush through your brows to soften the colour and create a natural, seamless gradient.

If-This / Then-That Tips:

• If your brows are very sparse: Focus on building the shape with light strokes rather than trying to draw a solid line.
• If you have thick brows: Use the pencil primarily to fill in any gaps and define the tail of your brow for a more polished look.
• If the colour looks too harsh: You've likely used too much pressure. Lighten your hand and rely on the spoolie to blend and diffuse the pigment.

Watchouts: The most common issue is the pencil tip breaking. To prevent this, never twist up more than a couple of millimeters of product at a time.

The Myth: "You need to draw harsh, dark, solid 'Instagram brows' for them to look defined."

The Reality (Why this pencil is better): This pencil's firm texture and sharp angled tip are designed for creating soft, feathery, hair-like strokes. This mimics the look of natural brow hair for a result that's beautifully defined yet understated. This approach is more modern and universally flattering than a solid block of colour, which can look severe and artificial, especially in bright daylight.

• Works Well With:
  • Translucent Powder: Applied before the pencil on oily skin to create a matte base for better grip and longevity.
  • Brow Gel (Clear or Tinted): Applied after the pencil to set the hairs in place for all-day hold.
  • Concealer: Used with a fine brush to clean up the edges and create a sharp, defined brow shape.
• Use With Caution:
  • Very Emollient Foundations or Primers: If your base is very dewy, the pencil may not adhere as well. Set the brow area with powder before application.

• All Skin Types: Excellent. The formula is designed to work on any skin type.
• Oily Skin: Particularly well-suited due to its firm, wax-based formula that helps resist sebum and smudging.
• Dry Skin: Glides on smoothly without catching on dry patches.
• Sensitive Skin: Generally well-tolerated as it is fragrance-free and requires minimal pressure to apply.

• Sparse or patchy eyebrows that need filling.
• Undefined or asymmetrical brow shapes.
• Unruly brow hairs that need grooming and direction.
• A desire for a quick, easy, and polished everyday look.

• Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax: A hard, natural plant wax that gives the pencil its structure and helps the formula resist smudging from heat and oil.
• Iron Oxides (CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491): Mineral pigments that provide the natural-looking gray and brown tones for the colour.
• Tocopherol (Vitamin E): A skin-conditioning antioxidant that helps protect the skin.

• Fragrance: This product is formulated without added artificial fragrances. It is unscented.
• EU Declared Allergens: Based on the representative ingredient list, this product contains none of the 26 allergens that must be declared under EU regulations.
• Irritation Potential: Very low. The formula is simple and designed for use on the delicate skin of the brow area. However, as with any cosmetic, discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• For external use only.
• Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Discontinue use and consult a specialist if you experience any signs of irritation, such as redness, swelling, or itching.
• Do not use on broken or irritated skin.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• This product is suitable for teenagers and adults.

• Texture: A firm, waxy solid that delivers smooth, even pigment. It is not overly soft, which allows for precise control and prevents over-application.
• Scent: Unscented (Fragrance-Free).
• Finish: Natural matte.
• pH: Not applicable for an anhydrous (water-free) formula.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains hydrogenated vegetable oils and esters which could be a potential trigger for highly sensitive individuals, but the risk is generally considered low for a brow product applied to a small area. Individual responses vary.

• Problem: The pencil looks too harsh or "drawn on."
  • Solution: Use a much lighter hand and apply with short, feathery strokes. Always use the spoolie to brush through your brows afterwards; this diffuses the pigment for a softer, more natural look.
• Problem: The colour doesn't last all day on my oily skin.
  • Solution: Before applying the pencil, prime your brow area by sweeping a small amount of translucent setting powder or an eyeshadow primer over it. This creates a matte base for the pencil to adhere to, increasing its longevity.
• Problem: The pencil tip keeps breaking.
  • Solution: Only twist up about 1-2 millimeters of product at a time. The angled tip is designed for precision and can be fragile if extended too far.

The firm, wax-based formula is an excellent choice for the hot and humid Mauritian climate. It is designed to resist sweat and sebum, helping your brows stay defined and in place throughout the day without smudging or melting.

Storage Tip: Like any wax-based cosmetic, it's best to store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or in a hot car, as extreme heat can soften the pencil and make it more prone to breaking.

However, your needs might differ:

• If you need extreme waterproof hold for activities like swimming: Consider a dedicated brow pomade applied with a brush, followed by a waterproof setting gel.
• If you prefer a much softer, powdered look: You might enjoy using a matte eyeshadow that matches your brow colour, applied with a fine angled brush. This can give a very diffuse, soft-focus finish.

Note: These are aggregated sentiments from online communities and do not reflect guaranteed results.

• On Shade and Performance: "The dark grey is perfect for my black hair, not too harsh... Lasts all day even when I sweat." Users with dark hair appreciate that the gray tone prevents the "Sharpie brow" look that a black pencil can create, offering a more natural definition. (Paraphrased from YesStyle review, 2024).
• On Texture and Undertone: Many reviewers mention the formula has a good waxy texture that helps hold brow hairs in place. They praise the 06 Dark Gray shade for being a true cool-toned gray without any red or warm undertones, which is a common issue with other dark brow pencils. (Aggregated from Amazon customer reviews, 2024).
• A Fair Caveat: While widely loved for its affordability and performance, a common tip from experienced users is to be gentle. One Reddit user noted, "Be careful not to twist it up too much, the lead can break easily because it's so thin." This is typical for precisely angled automatic pencils. (Paraphrased from Reddit, r/AsianBeauty discussion, 2024).

What hair color is the 06 Dark Gray shade best for?
It is ideal for individuals with dark brown to black hair. The cool gray tone provides natural-looking definition without the harshness that a pure black pencil can sometimes create.

Is this eyebrow pencil waterproof?
It is designed to be long-lasting and resistant to sweat and sebum (oil), making it great for daily wear in humid conditions. However, it is not fully waterproof and may fade with prolonged water exposure like swimming.

How can I make my brows look natural and not "drawn on"?
The key is to use a light hand and mimic your natural hair growth. Use short, upward strokes instead of drawing solid lines. Always finish by brushing through your brows with the spoolie to blend the colour and soften any edges.

Why does the pencil tip sometimes break off?
The angled tip is fine and precise, which can also make it delicate. To prevent breakage, only twist up 1-2mm of the product—just enough for application. Do not apply excessive pressure.
