Illamasqua "Sophie" Medium Pencil | MrAJBx3 Beauty/Makeup Blog


The Sophie Medium Pencil has to be my favourite black eyeliner pencil because it is really black and it is seriously blend-able
Unlike a lot of Pencil Eyeliners I have used they tend to tug on your eyelid which isn't nice so I mostly use gel eyeliners because they can be so precise and do not pull at all but with the Sophie Eyeliner it isnt super soft but it does run softer than most eyeliners which is nice the thing i love the most about these medium pencils are they blend like no other eyeliners usually eyeliners are hard to blend but these are quite like creams when you apply them to the eyes, They are PERFECT for creating a cut crease or a nice smokey eye because you can layer up your products for a actual smoked out finish
What i love about this pencil is Illamasqua came up with a Modernised techinque that was used by the likes of Greta Garbo to give the eyes dimension and depth they call it "Skin Sketching"
The Sophie Eyeliner and all Medium Pencils are £13 from Illamasqua and they last for a good while as well which I also love!

I want to talk about something which i think is quite close to me the reason behind the "Sophie Pencil"
The Sophie Pencil is more than a Simple Eyeliner, it helps raise money for the Sophie Lancaster Foundation and if you dont know what that is, its Foundation set up to :

- To create a lasting legacy to Sophie.

- To provide educational group-works that will challenge the prejudice and intolerance towards people from alternative subcultures.
- To campaign to have the UK Hate Crime legislation extended to include people from “alternative subcultures” or “Lifestyle and Dress”

Sophie was a girl who was kicked to death because she was different which i think is totally wrong to basically kill someone because they look or act different obviously I'm big on this because i mean look at me I don't exactly look "normal" so if someone can be killed for something as simple as looking different things need to change

£3 from every Sophie Pencil bought from Illamasqua goes to the Sophie Lancaster Foundation. You can get the Medium Pencil, The Sophie Wristband and Make a Donation all go to helping the Sophie Lancaster Foundation

STAMP OUT PREJUDICE, HATRED AND INTOLERANCE EVERYWHERE

S.O.P.H.I.E
