NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil

These eyepencils are probably one of the most used products by beauty guru's. The Eyepencil in Milk is the most popular one so I decided that that would be the first one to buy. The second one I bought was Rocky Mountain Green, because I don't have that much green in my makeup stash. Want to know what I think of these pencils? Read on!



I like NYX packaging. The sleek and clean style always attracts me.

On the left is Milk, which is a full on white pencil. Right we have Rocky Mountain Green, which is a metallic moss-green color with some silver glitter in it.
As you can see, the pencils are indeed quite "Jumbo". Not so great for eyeliner, but it would definitally work as a base for your eyeshadow.

On to the swatches.


Look at how vibrant these swatches are! These swatches were done with just one stroke. The pencils are very, very creamy. Great for blending. Speaking about blending, here are the swatches smeared out a little:


Jup, very creamy, very blendable.

Conclusion: I like to use these pencils as a base, because they won't last that long when used on their own.
The color payoff is awesome and the available range of shades is quite impressive and divers. Plus they are budget-proof.

Here is a quick eyelook I did with Rocky Mountain Green.

I look really tired on all of these pictures :P

Uh Oh smudges!

Hope you enjoyed!

Do you like the jumbo eyepencils?
