NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Jumbo Pencil Reviews Summary

Application & Texture

Pros:

• "It goes on very smoothly and blends easily."
• "This eyeliner is amazing and better than any expensive brand eyeliner I have tried."
• "Makeup pencil has a silky smooth feel and glides on easily."
• "It is a creamy consistency and goes on easily and blends well."
• "This product goes on silky smooth."
• "Goes on smoothly and easily, also love the deep black color."
• "Great price, easy to apply and it is very soft and smooth so you don’t have to press hard to get the right amount of color to apply."

Cons:

• "Did not stay put and was smeared all into my eyelid crease within 1 hour of applying."
• "Color is beautiful but it doesn’t go on “creamy.” Rather dry and chalky and makes my eyelids look dry and cakey as well."
• "Too thick on. It also transfers very easily, had it all over my eyelids even with primer under it."
• "It moved into creases and became blotchy in less than 2 hours. And that is with using an eye primer."
• "Goes on easily but doesn’t stay, smears, transfers, & runs."
• "It’s not worth the hype. Bought it because hey everyone loves it and says it stays on. Nope."
• "The texture is waxy and doesn't go on evenly by itself or with a brush. Pretty much useless."

Product Design & Packaging

Pros:

• "This is such a pretty color. At first I was disappointed that I didn’t get very much because it doesn’t twist to reveal more, but then I tried sharpening it and realized that works."
• "I can probably use as white eyeshadow as well."
• "It’s huge and there’s no way to get smaller values or to get sharper lines on its own. But it’s amazing for use. And lasts a while even without a sharpener."
• "I really like to add this highlighter in my inner eye and underneath!"
• "I love how easy it is to use, color is great stays on. I wanted to let everyone know that no it doesn't twist up but it does sharpen so go buy a large hole makeup pencil sharpener and sharpen it."
• "I’ve never used a white highlighter before and I love it."
• "I love this! The white is very pigmented so a little goes a long way! But it's so smooth and can be blended with your finger."

Cons:

• "I just received this NYX Jumbo Eyeliner but I cannot use it."
• "The amount of makeup on the top, is all there is. It doesn’t twist, or come up."
• "The stick is not the kind that you can twist at the bottom to get more product."
• "What you see for product is all you get.... This does NOT twist up, and the 'tube' is a hard plastic so you cannot sharpen it."
• "Product arrived sealed with the tip melted to one side. Smears all over. Too soft to sharpen."
• "I loved the color and actual product but there is so little exposed and the rest is encased in plastic with no real practical way to get it!"
• "The very tip of this pencil is the whole product."

Value & Longevity

Pros:

• "Overall, in love with this and would recommend to anyone. Worth the purchase."
• "I give it 5 stars it does what it's supposed to and it's a great product."
• "Once applied, it stays in place throughout the day, without smudging or fading."
• "It’s great quality, and looks great but I would definitely invest in a sharpener."
• "I order 6 at a time. What shadow you see if what you get. No twisting up or sharpening. But at the cost it's not important. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this shadow stick."
• "I love this product sooo much and it’s lasted me 1+ years. Stays on 3-4 hours and easy to travel with."
• "Rich color. I put it on and never worry about it smearing."

Cons:

• "I do wish It was cheaper though."
• "this eyeliner didn't last me too long without it smudging and I've cried with it on and it is not water resistant with a long period of time."
• "Great color and smooth application but I ended up with it smudged all over my eyes above and below within an hour of application."
• "This product CREASES. Horribly. I bought it in Strawberry Milk and the color is beautiful but in minutes it separates into stripes on my eyelids."
• "unfortunately it’s not nearly as thick or long lasting as i expected it to be."
• "It's not smudge proof, and doesn't last for a whole day."
• "Once you start using it, you can notice that it starts to break down."
