Yes, and I love it, but it is very bright white so I tone it down a bit by painting over it after it is dry with a little thinned down flesh 08.

Yay!!! Thanks for the tip! I canāt wait to try it! I wish there was a good one for eyebrows!!!
iām experimenting with prisma color tips. My old hand isnāt quite steady enough to use paint on such fine details and I am not satisfied with my work. I like gel pens, but they seem to run out very quickly and they are very, very white so Iām with Bette on using a coat of neutralizing color over them. You donāt want to end up with that French Manicure look.

Helen, what do you mix the powders with? You make them sound so interesting!
They are just powder makeup from Coastal Scents. There are links on this forum to the tutorials. They are not mixed with anything, but rather are sealed when you finish working with them. They are fun, but have a definate learning curve. They are beginning to work very well for me and they work well with the Genesis paints although most of the tutorials are for air dry. Genesis works just as well. I find they are great for creases and subtle shading also some blushing. I still do mottles and undertones with Genesis.

Got my jelli roll pen! LOVE IT!
ļø thanks guys!
Where did you get it? Can you post a pic?
Amy, I ordered mine from LCI PAPER. I found them online. They have this pen on ebayā¦ But asked 4.95 for the pen and 14.95 for shipping! 
I paid 4.72 with shipping for one pen. LCI paper was cheaper than Amazon also:-) I love it!

Thanks for the pic and info!
honojane, I use prisma white. I wet the tip and glide it on. If itās to white I take a damp q-tip and roll over it. It tones it down. I bake it and let sit overnight.Then I apply 2 to 3 coats of satin varnish. Itās never failed me. If you donāt like it, it will just wipe off before you bake.

I have that so Iāll try it next time.
Iāve been experimenting with prisma tips. I use a slightly off whiteā¦canāt remember the name of the color but itās working out better for me than paint. My hands are not quite steady enough to do a good job with the paint and I donāt like the french manicure look.
