NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Jumbo Eye Pencil, Blendable Eyeshadow Stick & Eyeliner Pencil - Milk & Black Bean (2-Pack)...

I've been told that as we age we aren't using eyeliner on our under eyes anymore because it creates too harsh of a look. I started using a brown shadow/powder to line my under eyes for a softer look. However, the powder/eye shadow is hard to take with me everywhere I go. I was looking for something easier to take on vacations etc. This elf pencil fit the bill. The color is nice, it glides on very smoothly, and washes off with ease. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the product does seem to smudge quite easily, and doesn't last through the day. By noon i can usually tell the color is diminished, and not as dark as i'd like it to be. That said, the price is great as with all elf products, and it still serves the purpose I wanted it for.

Love this product, have all the natural colors, its my daily wear. Powdered eyeshadow started caking into fine lines in the last few years since I've gone from oily teen skin slowly to crepey dried out fine wrinkles around the eyes skin. This cream pencil doesn't do that, it smoothes out the wrinkles. It's very quick and easy to apply and just blur the edges with a fingertip (I know the makeup artists will argue you need a full brush set and 4 colors for proper eyeshadow, but for most busy mornings getting out the door to work, this method looks fine.) I like the shimmer, it gives me a little sparkle. I would like to see matte shades, however, as an option. It is not smudgeproof, if you rub your eyes it will come off. You can apply more coats for darker color as a thick liner and a lighter touch with 1 coat and smudge it out for a more natural fade. It sharpens like any other pencil so you can get a sharp line if you want that, it's just softer "lead".

I recently had the opportunity to try out the NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Jumbo Eye Pencil in the shade Black Bean, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. This versatile product serves as both an eyeshadow and an eyeliner pencil, making it a convenient addition to my makeup collection. First and foremost, the pigmentation of this eye pencil is outstanding. The black color is intense and bold, allowing for a stunning, dramatic look. It glides effortlessly across the eyelids, delivering a smooth and creamy texture that is easy to blend. Whether I want to create a smoky eye or a defined eyeliner look, this pencil allows me to achieve both with precision. One of the standout features of this product is its jumbo size. The larger size of the pencil makes it incredibly convenient to apply, especially when using it as an eyeshadow. The broader tip allows for quick and effortless application, covering a larger area of the eyelid in just one swipe. It saves me time during my makeup routine, and I appreciate the efficiency it offers. The longevity of the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil is also noteworthy. Once applied, it stays in place throughout the day, without smudging or fading. I find this to be particularly important, as I often struggle with finding eyeliners and eyeshadows that can withstand the rigors of a long day. With this pencil, I can confidently say that my eye makeup remains intact, no matter the occasion. Another aspect worth mentioning is the versatility of this product. While Black Bean is a rich black shade, NYX offers a range of other beautiful colors in this line, allowing for endless creativity and experimentation. I appreciate having the option to use this pencil as a standalone eyeshadow or as a base to intensify other eyeshadow shades. Furthermore, the price point of this eye pencil is fantastic. NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP consistently delivers high-quality products at affordable prices, and this Jumbo Eye Pencil is no exception. It offers excellent value for the quality and versatility it provides. In conclusion, the NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Jumbo Eye Pencil in the shade Black Bean is a must-have product for any makeup enthusiast. Its intense pigmentation, smooth application, long-lasting formula, and jumbo size make it a standout in the world of eyeshadows and eyeliners. I highly recommend giving it a try and exploring the endless possibilities it offers for creative eye looks.
