Anastasia Beverly Hills Pro Pencil brow highlight & concealer — Base 2, full-pigment matte, sharpenable

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Pro Pencil in Base 2 is a full-coverage matte highlight and concealing pencil designed for precise brow shaping, waterline brightening, and clean edge definition.

Built for makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts who want crisp, long-lasting detail work, this sharpenable wooden pencil blends creamy pigment into a seamless matte finish. Use it to lift arches, hide stray hairs, brighten the inner eye, or create a neutral base for shadow — all with a smudge-resistant formula that dries down for longer wear. Its compact, sharpenable tip gives you control for micro-detailing while the richly pigmented texture delivers instant coverage and a professional look.

How does the Pro Pencil lift and define brows?

Applied along the brow bone or directly under the arch, the Pro Pencil instantly highlights and sharpens the edge of the brow for a cleaner, lifted appearance. The high-pigment matte formula creates a crisp contrast between skin and hair, helping brows read as more structured without looking greasy.

• Use short strokes under the tail to create an instant arch lift.
• Blend lightly with a small fluffy brush for a natural gradation.
• Sharpen the wooden tip for ultra-fine lines and hair-like detailing.

Can it conceal stray hairs and clean up shape?

Yes — the pencil covers tiny hairs and conceals imperfections along the brow edge while delivering a matte, opaque finish for corrective work. Because it dries down, it helps keep concealed areas neat and reduces the need for repeated touch-ups during the day.

• Apply directly on stray hairs to visually minimize them.
• Use around the perimeter of the brow to refine and correct shape.
• Layer lightly and blend to avoid harsh lines for a natural result.

Is this pencil good for brightening the waterline and eye area?

The creamy, full-coverage texture works on the waterline to open and brighten the eye, and it also functions as a base for eyeshadow to intensify color. Because the formula is matte and smudge-resistant once set, it reduces transfer and helps keep the eye area looking clean.

• Apply a thin line to the inner rim for an awake appearance.
• Use as a lid base to enhance shadow payoff and longevity.
• Allow to set briefly to ensure longwear and minimal creasing.

How do I sharpen and maintain the Pro Pencil for detailed work?

The Pro Pencil is housed in a wooden casing that accepts a standard cosmetic pencil sharpener, allowing you to expose a fine, precise point for micro-detailing. Regular sharpening keeps lines crisp, whether you’re creating hair-like strokes or a clean concealer line beneath the brow.

• Use a high-quality cosmetic sharpener to prevent breakage.
• Sharpen incrementally to preserve product and avoid waste.
• Store capped in a dry place to protect the tip between uses.

Who this is for: The Anastasia Beverly Hills Pro Pencil in Base 2 suits makeup artists, professionals, and anyone who values crisp, defined brows and precise eye-area correction. It's ideal for those who prefer a matte, full-coverage pencil that can multi-task — concealing, highlighting, brightening, and priming — while offering a sharpenable tip for exacting detail work and long-lasting, smudge-resistant wear.
