Heart Percent Dot on Slim

The slim 0.4g format was developed by HEART PERCENT to solve a specific problem in gradient lip technique: the standard 0.8g pencil, while effective for filling in the full lip, is too wide for precise initial placement when you want to control exactly where your gradient begins. The slim tip - roughly the width of a precise felt-tip marker - allows you to:

• Place the starting dot of colour accurately on the medial point of the Cupid's bow and the centre of the lower lip
• Overline the natural lip edge with a single thin stroke
• Layer individual shade passes without disturbing the placement beneath
• Work on smaller areas of the lip - the inner corners, the Cupid's bow peaks - without covering a broader zone

For daily makeup use, the slim is more versatile as a precision tool; the standard is faster for filling in quickly.

The Dot On Mood Contour Eyeliner Slim is the most distinctive product in this collection - it is not a conventional black or brown eyeliner but a contour-specific pencil designed for face and eye shaping. In Korean makeup, contour pencils are used to:

• Define the shadow below the cheekbone for subtle face shaping without powder contouring
• Create a softer shadow at the outer corner of the eye or the crease - a technique that defines eye shape without a stark liner look
• Mark and blend shadow zones for a more natural-looking depth than traditional heavy contouring

The slim tip allows controlled strokes in specific areas that can then be blended outward with a finger or brush. The formula is designed to blend on contact - which differentiates it from a hard-press eyeliner that sets before blending is possible. For customers who have used Korean face contouring products, this pencil occupies the same territory in a precise slim format.

01 Peach Beige is a warm peachy-nude at the lightest end of the shade spectrum - lighter than Clean Beige but with a warm peach undertone rather than a pure beige. It is suited for:

• A warm-toned barely-there lip that reads as natural on warm or light-to-medium skin tones
• As a first layer under Campink or Appricot Coral to warm up the shade result
• For creating a peach-to-pink gradient - start with Peach Beige across the full lip for warmth, then add Campink at the centre for a peachy-pink gradient

The peach direction makes it more distinct from the neutral Clean Beige and the cool Bare Lips - for warm undertones especially, Peach Beige reads more flattering as a standalone shade than the neutral nudes.

All slim shades visible in the collection:

• 01 Peach Beige: Warm peachy-nude. New addition.
• 05 Appricot Coral: Bright warm apricot-coral for summer energy.
• 08 Claudimove: Cool mauve-rose for a sophisticated minimal look.
• 10 Clean Beige: Neutral nude-beige close to natural lip colour.
• 14 Campink: Warm dusty pink - the most popular everyday shade.
• 15 Moblips: Deep plum-pink for deliberate or evening looks.
• 18 Pigroz: Warm rose with character.
• 19 Dusty Pink: Greyed-out muted pink - the signature Korean dusty aesthetic.

The slim format is the only way to access the individual named shades - the standard 0.8g pencil comes in a single universal shade.

The Dot On Mood range includes two eye pencil formats:

• Gel Eyeliner Pencil: Dense pigment, quick-setting gel formula, designed for defined lash-line liner work. Smudge-resistant once set.
• Contour Eyeliner Slim: Blendable contour formula, designed to be softened with a fingertip or brush. For shaping and shadow rather than sharp line definition.

Use the Gel Eyeliner Pencil when you want a visible, crisp lash-line definition - the liner that looks like a liner. Use the Contour Eyeliner Slim when you want depth and shape without a hard line - the natural shadow that looks like it comes from the eye's structure rather than a drawn product. Both have their place in a Korean makeup kit; which one to buy depends on whether you are building definition (gel liner) or dimension (contour liner).

The Contour Eyeliner Slim is applied in small, controlled strokes and immediately blended:

Under-eye shaping: Draw a very light shadow below the lower lash line at the outer corner and blend downward and outward with a fingertip to create a naturally shadowed outer-eye definition. Use a small amount - less is more for a natural effect.

Crease contouring: Apply in short strokes along the natural crease above the eyelid and blend upward with a blending brush or a clean fingertip. Creates depth without visible powder or eyeshadow application.

Cheekbone contour: Draw a light line below the cheekbone (from just below the ear toward the corner of the nose) and blend outward with a brush or sponge. The slim tip gives precise control over the starting placement.

In all cases, the key is to apply lightly and blend immediately. The contour pencil is a starting tool - the blending step creates the final look.

The Dot On Slim collection is the most useful for:

• Korean makeup beginners who want to learn the gradient lip technique with a precise tool
• Experienced Korean makeup users who want to expand their slim shade wardrobe
• People interested in Korean contouring techniques using a pencil rather than powder or cream
• Those who prefer building looks incrementally with precise, controllable tools rather than broad-coverage products

If you have never tried the gradient lip technique, start with one slim pencil (14 Campink or 18 Pigroz) and learn the placement-and-blend approach before expanding the collection. If you are already comfortable with slim pencils, the Contour Eyeliner Slim is a natural next step.
