I use them as bases sometimes. I sharpen them first though to get rid of bacteria.

You could also buy something like the OCC Convertible Color Pencils, they're made to be used everywhere.

I'm not sure if they would hurt your eyes or not. I'm going to say you probably should t use it on your eyes unless it says you can. Like Hannah said there are colors pencils you can get that you can use anywhere.

I have used them before..I wanted a red winged liner so I used a lipliner. It needs to be a soft formulation though, because many lipliners can be very dry and on the eyes they can pull on your thin eyelid skin.

As long as its a soft formula it should be fine.

A lot of the time brands lip and eye liner pencils will be the SAME exact product lol. Nyx for example, their lip/eye pencils are sold as one product on certain sites. LA Girls is another brand that comes to mind. One of my fav MUAs uses MAC lip pencils on her eyes a lot without any irritation :)
