Reading reviews i took their advise.....wear primer!!! its so important and you cannot apply thick. I think if you follow that it works so well, under shadows for extra color or darkness. Its super...

I had high expectations of this product after seeing all the YouTube and MUA reviews on it, but I have to say I absolutely hate it. On initial application, it's super black and creamy so I thought...

I like this pencil, but it is hard to work with. It blends kind of blotchy and is extremely dark, so needs a really light hand. Don't think I will use it much, so probably won't need to...

By itself, this eye pencil is a greasy black mess. But when its sheered out thin and even, it makes a good base for shadow. But I still wouldn't attempt to wear this all day, cause I think it will...

Love using this as a black base to make darker eyeshadows POP! A thinner layer is better, you don't need much. If you use too much it will crease and be kinda messy. Using your finger to apply most...

I really like black bean as a base under dark shadows or with my duo chrome pigments. I have to use a primer underneath, though... I use TFSI. I also really like this along my waterline as an...

Creamy and glides on easy... but I'd rather use this as an eyeliner before anything else. I kinda hate it and wish I had never bought it.

I love this pencil because it is so pigmented and it works wonderfully as a base when working with a black eyeshadow BUT it is EXTREMELY EXTREMELY creamy and oily it will crease immediately if you...

Whether you like this or not may depend on what you do with it. I really like it as an eyeliner set with some powder shadow. As a shadow base, it is a little to greasy to avoid creasing. But...

I have to say, it's a pretty good product. But it is a bit oily, and it's quite messy and difficult to use. When you use this, prepare for mistakes because they're bound to happen. But it does...

Black bean works great if you want black eyeshadow to look BLACK. I use this over UDPP then put my powder black eyeshadow to get that famous smokey effect. For my skin tone (NC44) i need a base...

I was always curious of NYX jumbo pencils, and I received this one in swap. There is a thin line between being creamy and oily- and this is definitely NOT 'creamy' but oily. It creases, it smudges,...

The people who say they hate it don't know how to use it. This is great for a base to make ANY eyeshadow (and especially pigments) so much brighter. The use of a colored base can change a...

I hate this product. It's a very pigmented black with no shimmer but causes bad creasing and is difficult to work with. It's not exactly creamy....it has a very oily consistency so it's difficult...

I agree that it´s a bit hard to work this out, it´s very greasy and even if you use a little thin layer it´s kinda hard to blend and get it even. I guess that Slate -another dark JEP- is better as...
