Eye make up review: NYX Jumbo eye pencils

Hi Everyone

I hope your doing well, today I will be reviewing the NYX jumbo eye pencils, I have heard so many good things about this particular product that I wanted to try it. I still love my Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on jumbo eye pencils but this product is on the pricey side. I have not seen this product on sale anywhere.

Product Claims:
A radiant eye liner that also doubles as an eye shadow. Made with a blend of mineral oil and powder, our creamy Jumbo Eye Pencils glide on effortlessly—no pulling, tugging or fading—and come in a rainbow of vivid hues. Some call her chubby. We say voluptuous. Available in 32 shades.

Product Experience:
The product comes in jumbo pencil form it does need sharpening, very easy and intuitive to use I paid $4.50 for each. I bought the colors Milk which is matte opaque white color, Strawberry milk which is a shimmery medium pink.

Pros:
  • The product is very inexpensive.
  • Intuitive and easy to use
  • The product comes in a wide variety of colors and finishes to choose from.
  • Compact, it doesn't take a lot of room and it's easy to store and easy to travel with.
  • Can be used as a base to allow the true colors of the eye shadows to show
  • Can be used tacky primer for loose pigments, pressed eye shadows etc.
  • Availability NYX is now available at Target stores. You can purchase NYX products at Ulta, some 99 cent store, Sears online at NYX.com, Ulta.com, makeupgeek.com etc.
Cons:
  • Needs sharpening, this is not a mechanical pencil
  • Cant be used alone, creases very quickly so you need to use a good eye shadow base plus set the product with a matching eye shadow.
This is an okay product, the product itself has nice pigmentation that makes it great as a base. If worn alone it will crease. There is also a lot of prep work in order to make this product last. From using another separate eye primer and making to setting the eyes with eye shadow.
