The MAC studio Chromagraphic Pencils ($16 each)
Chances are great that if you’ve rolled as much as your preferred MAC counter lately (shout-out to the Corte Madera counter at Nordies, woo-hoo!), you most likely passed the studio Chromagraphic Pencils without bringing one home.

Honestly, I don’t blame you, since if I didn’t understand about them, I’d most likely avoid ’em too. On paper, they appear rather boring.

Only they’re not. At all. They’re really truly handy. In a nutshell, they’re creamy, flesh-colored eyeliners…which does noise quite lame, right?
But I keep one of these $16 wonders in my makeup bag in any way times as well as always bring one with me on trips. I utilize them all the time, really, in so lots of different ways.

Here I’m using the MAC studio Chromagraphic Pencil in NW25/NC30 in a number of places, including my water lines, under my brows, in the inner corners, down the bridge of my nose as well as around my mouth.
My water lines get irritated as well as red whenever I’m exhausted or after I’ve been crying, as well as those are times when I like to apply a couple layers of Chromagraphic Pencil on them. then I’ll tons up my lashes with mascara as well as do a bright lip.
Boom! unexpectedly I look less emo as well as less likely to have a spontaneous crying fit.
And they don’t just raise water lines. They’re likewise excellent for lazy brow phases, which I go with from time to time. Like, if you haven’t plucked or waxed in a while, just draw a line with a Chromagraphic Pencil under your brows, as well as smudge it out with a 239 to instantaneously take your brows from tragic to triumphant.
No, really! The Chromagraphic Pencils assist to hide any type of stray hairs to ensure that your lower arch looks smoother as well as less choppy, likewise understood as “less janky.” I utilized one quite much everyday a couple years back when I grew out my brows.
How about lip liner? Can you utilize ’em for that?
Why, yes. Like, if you’re using an intense red or bright pink lipstick as well as you want to clean up the edges, just outline your lip around your natural lip line with a Chromographic after you apply your lipstick, as well as then blend out the edges with a clean (I like utilizing a rigid concealer clean for this).
They even work as improv deal with highlighters! In these pics, I drew a line down the center of my nose as well as mixed it in with a MAC 217. then I worked my Chromagraphic Pencil into the exact same 217’s bristles by running it across the pencil tip, then buffed the product into the inner corners of my eyes.
Seriously, so bomb, as well as so versatile. They’re $16 each as well as are available in just three shades — NC15/NW20, NW25/NC30 as well as NC42/NW35. The names are uninspiring, I know, as well as they make them noise like duos, however they’re private liners.
