Freckle 101: Your guide on testing the lab sample
Hi Berry Patch! 👋🏼🤠 Our 15 product testers have officially been chosen, and the samples have been sent out. Our first meeting is this Thursday, so here's my official Freckle 101 on how to get the best freckle application (and the most comprehensive feedback!).
Please test the pen in the following ways:
1. Without makeup - just over skincare
2. With makeup - over your finished look
Rudi's Preferred Method
1. Focus freckles around the "triangle" that starts in between the brows and ends by the side of the nostril. This is where most natural freckles occur from sun exposure
2. Hold the pen so that the ball tip is straight forward towards you (not angled)
3. Start by applying 3 dots on the bridge of the nose
4. Place finger over dots and "copy" them, then "paste" them near the original dots
5. Repeat on sides of nose
6. For additional freckles, the most natural look leads under the eyes and across the upper cheek area
YOUR Preferred Method
???
Use the pen however YOU would usually go about creating freckles! Think of all the ways you'd like them to come across.
Do you want them to look perfectly round? Some oblong and some not?
If you want more pigment, should you keep them on the skin instead of "copying" them?
Play around with the pen in all the ways you'd naturally try a new product, and make sure you write down that feedback and take photos when you can.
We can't wait to meet you and get all your feedback to make this product perfect.
If you're NOT in the product testing group, feel free to leave your initial thoughts on the product design based on the photos we've shared so far! ⬇️

I love that with the copy-paste method, you can make them light, but you can also use it for little beauty marks in fun places as well. The longevity on this is great and last all day which is quite the test because I am an oily girl that wears dewy makeup, so when products last, I am in love. Because of the long-lasting wear, I decided to try it as an eyeliner (I know, not the point), but I have to tell you it lasted and did not move, so there was a double purpose for me, and I loved it.
It took me a moment to get the application right, but once I did, it was super easy. 😍
Literally let out an aww 🥹🥹 when I opened the package and saw it’s an actual pen 🖊️…that’s just so perfect.
Wore today over minimal skincare (busy Mom here 🙋🏻♀️) and it wore beautifully and so naturally— 8+ hours of wear later and no smudging, no transfer, no movement, no color change… just a slight, gradual fading. *chef’s kiss*
Only initial feedback is I would love to see how the tip of the pen would perform with a little more tension/stiffness to it, because I was applying it half-focused while my toddler needed me and my dog needed me and I noticed I made a few more “dashes” than I intended. They still looked great, blended right in to my natural freckles (and let’s be honest— my lingering pregnancy melasma 🫣🤣.)
Besides that, I can’t wait to have this with me everywhere— one on the vanity, one in the bag, one in the car. Idk what it is about me and freckles but I just love how they pull together the face, add interest, make everything cuter and more casual but in a polished way.
SO looking forward to meeting you, Rudi, Beaubble girls, and the rest of the group!!
Picture for reference…applied more freckles, imperfectly, after wearing them all day, right over the earlier ones, added a lip but other than that no makeup, did the copy n paste method (love that method). No filter, don’t mind the imperfections or rbf…I swear I’m elated here! 😂🤣😘😘
