An interesting brown that is not too dark for someone with fair skin and blue eyes. If you are looking for a very dark brown, you may be disappointed. However, I liked the color and consistency and will use this a lot, although not as much as a charcoal pencil I prefer for daytime.

On recommendation of someone I tried this pencil. It did not live up to my expectations. It is very similar to MAC’s Teddy. MAC’s product is superior in that it has better color payoff, & is easier to apply. I still would like a pencil that glides on easily, with even more color payoff. Almost like a gel liner, but with the ability to smoke out if desired. Had to return.
One of the best eyeliners I’ve tried. It glides on effortlessly, doesn’t skip, and doesn’t feel waxy. It blends well and stays on. There’s a velvety consistence to it I like; it doesn’t look harsh. I have both the brown and the grey colors, which work well with my coloring.
Can't say I'm a fan of the color of this pencil (Mambo.). I plan to return it. I have medium blonde hair and usually wear a charcoal color pencil. This one is way too light and an unusual shade of brown. Makes me look washed out. As far as the pencil though, it goes on well. Just not happy with the color.
