Are you familiar with Chella? I first discovered Chella in one of my ipsy bags. About a year ago, I got to try a beautiful indigo blue, easy-to-apply liquid eyeliner with a felt tip.
Since then, I learned that Chella is also known as Chella Brow Bar, located in Westlake CA, and they sell a full line of awesome-looking brow products and tools to create beautiful brows at home as well as eye makeup and skincare on their website chella.com.
When I had a chance to try another Chella product via SircleSamples, I jumped on it. SircleSamples sent me Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil.
I’d call it a crayon since it’s a nice fat jumbo pencil. Plus it has a very creamy consistency that seems more crayon-like than a stiff pencil. It can be spread with fingers or with a brush.
The Ivory Lace shade is perfect for me. It’s almost an exact match with my fair/light skin tone.
I use the pencil to brighten my eyes in four different ways:
- line my lower waterline
- in the inner corner of my eyes
- under my eyebrows
- under my eyes.
It’s a very nice concealer for hiding dark spots and the dark circles under my eyes. It’s amazing what a difference this pencil makes! My face looks so much brighter and more awake.
Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil also comes in three other shades:
- Latte: medium skintones
- Cappuccino: medium/dark skintones
- Cinnamon: dark skintones.
The Highlighter Pencil is priced at $18. You can buy the Chella Ivory Lace and other Highlighter Pencils on the Chella website as well as at dermstore.com, birchbox, ipsy, and Amazon.
Have you tried any products from Chella? Or have you been to the Brow Bar?
You just reminded me that I have one of these in my stash somewhere. I will have to dig it out again.
The Ivory Lace Highlighter, Laura? Yes, you should. I think it’s so handy! How did you acquire it?
Ipsy 🙂
Oh! I didn’t know they gave it out before this month. Cool.
I’ve never heard of this brand before, but it looks interesting =)

It was new to me too when I first tried the brand in my ipsy bag. Chella is known for their Brow Bar outside of LA, and their brow products but I’m glad they’re expanding into other makeup too
Yes! I got like 3 or 4 of these pencils already and I keep hoarding more. This is the perfect multi-tasker 🙂
Glad you think so too!!
Just got into highlighter pencils. They are so much easier to draw on than using liquid. I’ve been to Westlake many times ( we have friends there ), but never noticed the brow bar . . . will have to look next time I’m in the area 🙂

The Brow Bar looks really nice in the photos, Monica. If you do go someday, let me know what it’s like!
Thank goodness you compared it to a crayon because the idea of a highlighter pencil, and all I could picture was a white eyeliner haha. Thanks for the recommendation! 🙂

For some reason, Chella calls it a pencil, but I agree, a crayon is more like it. The shade selections are quite good or at least for me they are!
That’s what I call a perfect match! Love that you can use it as a highlighter as well as a concealer.

I love creamy pencils especially for around the eyes, it just so much easier! This looks a perfect color for you!

It sure is, Jen. Such a handy little multitasked 🙂
This post just reminded me of the fact that I have this and don’t know what I did with it. On the hunt for it I go and glad you enjoyed it!

I’m not familiar with this brand, but I’m intrigued. I’ll have to look them up sometime!

Chella’s eye products are definitely worth getting to know, Lisa!
I have never tried… But that highlighter pencil looks niiiice!
Erika recently posted…Lancome Grandiose Wide Angle Fan Effect Mascara | Review
It’s definitely a good one, Erika. So handy!
I’ve never heard of this brand. The highlighter pencil blends nicely into your skin, too. You can barely see it, which is a good thing.

I discovered the brand via ipsy, of course. And I was happy to get this multi-tasking crayon to try out too. Can’t believe the shade matches my skin tone so well!
Highlighter pencils are such an easy and effortless way to brighten the eyes and the surrounding area! I know I have a few somewhere– I will have to go dig around to find it! Your posts always make me so happy, Allison!

I love highlighter pencils, but I haven’t tried this brand. I might need to give it a go!
Chelsea recently posted…NARS All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation – Review
This one really works for me. Can’t believe how good the color match is too.
I got this once from my Ipsy bag, but I ended up swapping it and ever since I did, I wish I hadn’t! lol People love this crayon and I love that it has so many uses.
Kristina Vieweg recently posted…New Pink Revlon Goodies!
I think they gave it out again in the March ipsy bag, but I got it from another source. It is certainly worth owning ‘coz it’s so useful!
I had never heard of Chella before, but this pencil sounds great. I love that you can use it as a concealer too.

I wasn’t familiar with it either, Gio, till I got the beautiful indigo liquid eyeliner in my ipsy bag last autumn. They’re best known in the Los Angeles area where they have the Chella Brow Bar, and there might be more than one in the area. I really love both the pencil and the liquid liner. 🙂
I love using these under my brows! I didn’t get this one in my bag =/
Brooke @ Blushing Noir recently posted…How To: Eat Dessert for Breakfast + GIVEAWAY!
I didn’t get it from ipsy either, Brooke. I got it from another service that I had never heard of. And yes, I forgot to mention using it under my brows or did I, lol?
I love this for the lower waterline
Phyrra recently posted…Spring Break Beach Essentials
me too. It’s so natural-looking
I love products like this! I had a nude liner from Rimmel that I used up completely, but it looked so great in my waterline. I will keep this brand on my must try list!
I’ve heard good things about the Rimmel liner too! I love the Scandaleyes pencils I bought last week. This Chella pencil is a perfect match for my skin tone so I’m loving it.
Hmmm this looks quite interesting!

Some women got the Chella Highlighter in their ipsy bags this month, but I got it from another service. It really is very handy, and I am amazed at the great shade match for my skin.
That trio of shadows looks right up my alley
Not quite sure what you mean, Betzy. This is a highlighter/concealer. Oh, you mean the NYX trio that I got in my ipsy bag a year or so ago!
I had never heard of Chella before this month’s Ipsy bag! I got a highlighting pencil, so I’m excited to try it in comparison to the Billion Dollar Brow’s pencil. Have you tried that one, too?
Erica @ Coming Up Roses recently posted…How to Perfect your Resumé
I have not tried Billion Dollar Brow. I have bangs so I don’t always do my brows, but the Chella crayon is great for highlighting under my brows when I remember to do it!
Ahh I didn’t get this in my bag this month but wanted it!
I didn’t get it through ipsy either, but I managed to get it through another source. I love it!
OOOO I had never heard of this before now. I wanna try!

Chella is a wonderful brand! Worth getting to know 🙂
I’ve tried the blue liquid liner from Chella, too, and I have one of these highlighters to try. I have been forgetting to use it! Thanks for the reminder.

Thank you, Kristin! I think rose gold is good for me, too!
I’ve gotten this about 3 times in subscription boxes and I’m never sorry to see one in them. It’s very versatile. I gave my latest to my sister who loves highlighters and she’s happy with it too.
