    I bought these in Black Bean (dark metallic greyish) and Cottage Cheese (white highlighting) from eBeauty. I adore them!!! I usually am not a fan of coloured eyeliners but these were SO cheap I couldn't resist. I use the cottage cheese (horrible name I know) under my waterline so it has a refreshed effect on my eyes. Sometimes I use Black Bean in conjunction with my black eyeliner just to give it a little cool glimmer. It's subtle and not overpowering. This is definitely a steal for the price!! Pick one up just to see what NYX is like - I think after purchasing these pencils I will try out other products in the brand.

    This is a great pencil for eyeshadow and as everyone mentioned about the smudging, yes it becomes a problem but i dont think it works too well as an eyeliner because of the smudging. I also tend to dislike fat pencils because they always seem hard to sharpen, i have always had a problem with the sharpening process of all pencil eyeliners because some just keep shedding and breaking and by the time i know it my pencil is all sharpened away :( so far i havent had a problem with this one.

    These are an amazing, well priced base for all of your eyeshadows. Inexpensive and come in a variety of colours. Highly pigmented, and don't crease. They blend extremely well!

    This works awesome! i use it in "Milk" and i love how smooth it is (: at ulta, i believe they are around 5 or 6 dollars, but i found that at the some little stores in the mall they are only about 3 dollars...so i think 3 dollars is a great price, its good quality and i definitely recommend it :D as others have mentioned before, if you have very oily eyelids it is best to use a primer with them, but in my case, it stays on long & strong just like that (:

    NYX jumbo eye pencils are my all time favorite bases to use! I have about 10 different shades (and counting), they are pigmented, they blend well, they don't crease, they make shadows so much more vibrant. These are a must have for your collection if you love makeup. If you can only afford one, I would recommend getting it in the creamy white shade called "Milk", these are super creamy and the white is the most universal color of them all. NYX jumbo eye pencils are amazing!

    Since I usually love NYX and had never been disappointed before with their products. I decided to pick up one of their black jumbo eye liners (which I've been on a hunt for a good one) and they were on sale at Rexall for a great price. The colour is very vibrant and goes on really well and smooth. But unfortunately like others have said it creases into your lid so easily. All day i had to keep wiping the colour off of my lid and it looked like i was wearing eye liner from the night before. I'll probably only use it when i use a primer, shadow and want a intense whole black smoky eye lid so it won't matter when it creases.

    They look and sound amazing right?
    These pencils are so raved about I hunted them down for over a year. When I finally found a store that carries them in MTL I went crazy and bought them in as many shades as I could.
    The colour payoff is decent. They are super smooth and soft, a bit too much as, making it very very difficult to applyas they literarlly melt on my eyelid. I need to apply them with a eyeliner brush or cream eyeshadow brush, which is ok but losses the intensity of the colour, and tends to leave traces of the bristles on my eyelid.
    I usually seal it with a similar shadow, in order to prolong the longevity of the look. I even use a primer before application. Despite all this, they jumbo pencil still manages to smudge and crease like crazy. Its unwearable.
    Big dissapointment as the colour are so pretty and the selection is nice. I can only wear them as a tiny little eyeliner right at the base of my lashes, so I can minimize the smudging and keep it under control throught the day.

    I heard lots of great things about the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils from the YT beauty community, so when I finally came accross them at an Ulta store in Maine I couldn't wait to try one. I must say that the product is very pigmented and I love how the color glides on easily without having to press down or tug at your eyelid like similar products; however, I tend to have oily lids and even with a primer I found this product creased within hours. But hey, its not like you cant throw it in your bag and touch it up as needed.

    I found NYX and thought I give it the brand a try. This brand is awesome. Its affordable and all their products are highly pigmented and never powdery. They just had a 50% off sale on Canada day and lets just say I bought the entire website haha. I bought the rest of the line but for now I have Milk and Yogurt. Both are great colors that go on so smooth. I just wipe Yogurt on my lower waterline and I immediately look fresher haha! I love how creamy they are, and for new mother like me, 2 swipes on the lid and you're out the door. I love NYX!!!

    These are great as a primer! I think in function they remind me of the paint pots by MAC because it's a good base and it gives color. Plus they are very affordable and comes in a variety of shades.
