The pencil works by applying some form of alum to the wound, which then causes the blood vessels to contract and stops the bleed. It removes the cut visually and promotes healing. The cut is still there but it doesn't bleed and isn't red since blood-flow to that particular area is constricted. Moisten tip of pencil with water and apply to the affected area. Rinse and dry pencil after each use.
