<p>I am looking for a powdery, dry medium similar to a chalk pencil. However I notice that <strong>not all chalk pencils are pure white and often exhibit a yellowy tinge.</strong> I have seen "white charcoal" products advertised, but I believe these are a patented synthetic material?</p>

<p><strong>Background:</strong>
I would like to add <strong>pure white highlights</strong> to studio marker illustrations, &amp; charcoal illustrations on toned paper. I would like a non waxy/oily pencil that can be smudged/blended like charcoal. The last pencil I tried was a Stabilo Carbothello white chalk pencil.</p>

<p>Are there any pencils similar to chalk that are pure white? </p>

I am looking for a powdery, dry medium similar to a chalk pencil. However I notice that **not all chalk pencils are pure white and often exhibit a yellowy tinge.** I have seen "white charcoal" products advertised, but I believe these are a patented synthetic material?

**Background:**
I would like to add **pure white highlights** to studio marker illustrations, & charcoal illustrations on toned paper. I would like a non waxy/oily pencil that can be smudged/blended like charcoal. The last pencil I tried was a Stabilo Carbothello white chalk pencil.

Are there any pencils similar to chalk that are pure white?
