    I have these in several colors. Cottage Cheese (shimmery white like MUF Auqa Eyes in White, which I also own), Yogurt (a shimmery pinkish taupe color, really nice), Dark Brown (metallic dark brown), and Milk (a flat white color, no shimmer). Love them all. Another reviewer mentioned that hers smudged. Put some powdered black shadow over top, just lightly, and it will stay all day. Likewise for all the other colors of this product. Use either regular pan shadow or even better, loose mineral shadow applied with a thin edged liner brush. Works every time.

    These are by far my favorite shadow sticks. Better even than my MAC shadow stick products and paintpots, and far cheaper. They work great as a base under powders, great on the water line for highlighting, as well as the inner and outer coners of the eye, and have actually even used them on my lips to tone down shades of lipsticks I don't like the color of. Super versatile products, for sure. I bought mine online for less than $2 each, which is spectacular compared to my local price. They are also better than all of the CoverGirl Shadow Blast sticks which I bought and got a refund from the company for, and are terrible in comparison, not to mention more expensive.

    The other bonus is that they come in far more colors than any other brand I have tried. Will absolutely keep buying these as long as I am breathing, especally at the price I get them.

    I love the thick pencil eye liners usually and its hard to actually find them!

    I bought one of these in black, it went on smooth and easy... but it smeared and creased like crazy... I failed big time haha. I'm not sure if I should of put something under it or what...but yeah, I was sad. I still use it on occasions if I dab with a cotton ball when its on my eye.

    The NYX Jumbo Pencils make for a great eyeshadow base and I love that they come in a variety of colors, making it easy to match the eyeshadow(s) you are planning to wear. It has just the right amount of creaminess to glide onto the eyelid and blends easily when smudged out with your finger or eyeshadow brush. Just make sure to blend really well, otherwise you may risk creasing. "Milk" a white shade and "Cottage Cheese" a shimmery cream shade are both great for every day use and will compliment any color of eyeshadow. These two shades also work well at highlighting the arches of the browbone or the inner tear duct area. "Black Bean" is great if you want a very vibrant look, as the black base will make colors really pop. These pencils are very affordable, which makes it easy to collect every shade. My only complaint is that it can be a little difficult to sharpen and you do waste product doing so. If they had a roll up tube it would be more efficient.

    I have been waiting for so long to find these where I live, and now that I finally have, I am SUPER excited. All the hype towards these is well deserved, they are just as great as everyone claims them to be. They're smooth, and creamy, and PIGMENTED! Overall fantastic. They work best as a base, and make eyeshadows over top really stand out. I love these!

    I bought a few of these jumbo pencils months ago and I love them. You just apply it all over your lid and blend it out with your finger or a brush and it creates a perfect base for your shadows to stick to. They have a lot of colour choices so it's easy to match it to your eyeshadow that you'll be using. I've depotted one of mine because I thought that it would be creamier, but I actually prefer it in the pencil better. Just be sure to blend everything evenly so that it doesn't crease and your shadows should last all day! I use these all the time and I definitely recommend them.
