Makeup pencils have always been popular. There are foundation pencils that hide troubled skin spots and dark circles under the eyes. Others not only provide coverage but also contain certain therapeutic oils like tea tree and vitamin E oils. There are also large crayon-sized pencils that can be used for �all over� color. Recently, dual-ended crayons that combine two different makeup types in one pencil have been developed. One pencil may have lip crayon on one end and eye crayon on the other, while a second could have two shine variations of the same makeup, such as metallic and matte. If the pencil tip is too soft, put the cap on tightly and run it under cold water. If the tip is too hard, roll the point in your hand until it reaches the softness you desire. Don't forget to clean your hand afterwards, though!
