too dark slightly dry [SEP] the color is a dark gray almost charcoal a similar shaped eyebrow pencil from elite korean is a light grey so i can adjust the saturation by apply layers this pencil is too dark for my tastethe texture is slightly dry so it is hard for me to get it applied evenly maybe i will do better with more practicethe beveled edge is great for applying color to the thicker and thinner parts of the eyebrow i can make it look very natural which is what i want probably the best aspect of this pencil is its low price
