"When we darkened her eyes, I did it with a black pencil — we went through a lot of those," Merker said. "I had three different versions: a harder and a softer pencil. Because sometimes if you go into the waterline and the pencil is too hard, it's not smooth enough so it won't show up. A softer version is more comfortable too. And of course, sometimes they break so you need more."
