Love it, but it creases!

These eye shadow sticks are amazing. The pigmentation of it is great, however my one big problem is that it crease rather quickly. Within less than half an hour, it creased on me. I have oily lids, and when I first test products out, I see how long it lasts without primer. Just a heads up to all the girls with oily lids like me, don't use this as a primer.

Fantastic!

I use this as both an eyeshadow primer and occasionally, as the eyeshadow itself. It's easy to blend, doesn't crease, and stays on all day. The Yogurt shade is closest to my own skin tone, so I can use that as a primer and then put whatever shadow I want for that day on top and it keeps it in place.

Better used as a face highlight than as an all over lid color

This is a very recent purchase yet I've found a somewhat different use for it.

The eye pencils are obviously meant to go on your eyes yet I've found that I like to use this pencil as a face highlighter instead. It goes on smoother than powder highlighter and you can blend it in as much or as little as you would like.

I tried it once on my eyelids and was not very pleased because it looked weird blended out.

Overall, this pencil works better as a face highlighter (or inner corner highlighter) than an all over lid color, in my opinion.

You do have to use a special sharpener to sharpen the pencil but those are usually not hard to find. (Mine is from NYX.)

Product: 7/10 - only because I didn't like the way it looked on my eyelid Pigmentation: 10/10 Wear Time: 10/10 Application: 4/5 - you do have to blend it in! Packaging: 3/5 - since you have to sharpen it, it's not my favorite type of packaging

Love, love, love!

I the jumbo eyeshadow pencils in yogurt, french fries, and cashmere. I love them. I tend to wear two or there at a time and blend them. They stay on all day and they're a fantastic primer. I love them with the Naked Palette. I highly recommend!

NYX- Yogurt

I bought this jumbo pencil today at Ulta and while I got it for only $4.49, I wish it was retractable and left my eyelids very shiny and oily after the day was over. I usually put a primer on my eyelids before shadows, so I'm thinking next time I will put on some dry foundation powder or translucent powder before applying this stick. It might help absorb the color a little better because the color did not last long on me. Other than that this product is good and worth buying at its retail price.

Great Base

I picked up a few of these a couple months at my Ulta ago after wanting some of these famous shadow pencils. Out of the four I purchased, I think that Yogurt was the best color for an everyday look, and worked great for me as a base. Considering I wasn't able to pick up Milk, the color I wanted the most, I feel that Yogurt is exceptional in terms of color, staying power, and the price is just really affordable.

great!

I love these easy to use eyeshadow pencils! They are very easy to blend and add other colors on top off, but I don't recommend wearing them without a eyeshadow primer underneath because they crease like CRAZY! My faves are "Yogurt" and "Milk".

Great Cream Eyeshadow!

I have three of these in Milk (a white) , Yogurt (a light shimmery champagne) and Strawberry Milk (a light shimmery pink). I love Milk, I use it all the time. I used it so much I had to depot it. I really like these as cream eyeshadows, but they do crease without a primer. Overall I would recommend these to a friend, and I want to buy a lot more.

gorguous color...AWFUL CREASING!

I have a couple of nyx jumbo pencils and the colors are all really pretty. Iced Mocha is my favorite color!! I just love champagne colors and I can just apply this all over the lid. BUT these jumpo pencils crease the CRAP out of me. I have a small double eyelid and within a few hours these jumbo pencils would crease like crazy. Even when I use the Urban Decay Primer Potion it still creases insanely much. As much as I love the color I hate how it creases on my lids & will not be repurchasing these. The loreal infallible eye shadows are way better & they have a champagne color as well.
