What the heck do you do with these things? Are they eyeliners? Are they eyeliners that also double as lip liners? Can I wear them on the water line? WHY YOU SO COMPLICATED, SON?!
The $17 Chromagraphic Pencils from the upcoming MAC Work It Out collection come with an insert that basically tells you how *not* to wear them.
Um…OK!
MAC suggests not using several of the six shades from Work It Out in the lip area, along the water line and, in some cases, avoiding the eye area completely.
Hmm…
I’m guessing that people will do what they will, and use them however they want, and I wouldn’t be surprised if some intrepid makeup artists out there do some off-label business with them.
Still…
Even though I love the nude Studio Chromagraphic pencils, I’m going to avoid the colorful ones from Work It Out because, yes, on the one hand they’re hella vibrant, but they also like to scoot all over my skin and transfer up into my crease, and when they touch my water line, my sensitive eyes water.
If you’re still intrigued, all six Chromagraphic Pencils arrive with the rest of the MAC Work It Out collection at counters, stores and online on March 2nd.
Finding motivation…
You guys, I’ve been going to that high intensity interval training class at night for going on three weeks now, and I love it! I still miss the camaraderie I had with the people in the daytime class, but the nighttimers are freakin’ hardcore.
I like to find someone near me who’s really pushing it, and I try to keep up with them. It’s so much fun going to a class where people push you, not to say that that never happened in the daytime class, but it’s fun trying to push myself and do things I’m not sure I can do.
And when I go to sleep at night, I’m so tired that I conk out when I fall into bed. Zzz…
I know I talk about HIIT all the time, but it’s been wonderful! It’s very hard for me, but it’s also a lot of fun. If you ever get a chance to try it, go for it! There are a bunch of HIIT workouts on YouTube that you can try to see if you like it.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

I really like it how MAC come up with these vibrant shades! The blue makes your brown eyes pop! I think I like the purple but can’t also resist that orange! Would look fab in the summer!
These are so weird. Would I ever wear them? Doubt it, but why do I want to own them all?????
Why are they not for use on the waterline??? Are they unsafe?? I called the customer care line today but the person who answered first tried to tell me it’s just the blogger’s opinion from the website I saw it at. Then she finally understood but said she didn’t know why and suggested I take the ingredient list to my doctor.
