Faux Freckle Pencils

Topshop's Freckle Pencil Will Give You a Naturally Fake Freckle Face

— June 28, 2014 — Fashion
Drawing on beauty marks is a trick that's been around for decades, but this idea is taking a new form with the Freckle Pencil.

Although there are many people who complain about freckles appearing on their skin, the brown-colored pencil will help to provide an instant sun-spotted look to those who desire it. In terms of what you're applying to your skin, the formula probably isn't all that different from other eyebrow or eyeliner pencils. However, what makes the look more natural is that the pencil is marbleized, so that your freckles aren't all the same color and you come out looking like a cartoon character with identical freckles.

Topshop will be releasing its Freckle Pencil in July for £5 in the UK.
