Pencil Yourself Pretty
Making your eyes a standout feature is now as easy as picking up a pencil. This season’s crop of eye pencils offer an easy way to add instant polish to your lids and eyebrows. Our favorites include cream or powder shadows that now come in pencil form.
And we especially love pencils with a double-ended features such as a coordinating shade or a handy blending tool. What it all means is that in just a few quick strokes, lids get a sheer or matte wash of color, eyes are precisely lined with a choice of two shades, and brows are filled and groomed. It’s fast, easy and all at your fingertips. Write on!
