I have this pencil and I use it when i want a simple sheen in my look. I WILL say that its a GREAT illuminator for the face if blended out but I rarely do that so its kind of just an eye base for me. I use this under pastel eyeshadows just to make then stick better but as a Goth chick, it doesnt see much love. I wouldnt recommend this particular pencil to a friend unless they were crazy for light pinks.

Hands down, best white pencil ever. It's amazing for making bright colors pop and gives a great base for an inner corner highlight, not to mention using it on your waterline!

This is the least pigmented Jumbo Pencil out of all that I have(Which isn't much but whatever) Although, I love using this as a base to my MAC Expensive Pink eyeshadow. Of course, I use Urban Decay Primer Potion under it or else it will crease, but it makes the pink eye shadow pop. It's a multi-dimensional pink that is very pretty. It's a pale color and has a tad bit of shimmer. Blends out nicely and is very creamy. I love this, but has limited use- a base or a shadow if you can get it to work.

At best this jumbo pencil can only be a eyeshadow base. As an eyeshadow, its creases after a short while, even with Urban Decay primer. Its cheap but doesn't work for me.

I don't quite understand the rave reviews about these pencils. They crease like crazy unless you use a good primer. And on top of the primer they start to feel cakey. This is a pretty colour and I can work with it so I'll probably buy it again.

Nice one. Sort of a pale pink iridescent look on the eye, looks very pretty with my brown eyes, don't have any other colors in eye shadow or liners that come out looking like this one.
No problems at all with these pencils, have them in multiple shades though I used them mostly as eyeliner and I have not yet had to sharpen any of them. I've heard that can be quite an ordeal...
Will keep buying, at least for now. They are so easy to use it only takes me a few seconds to look good for the whole day!

Cute product with pretty pink color. It's super creamy and easy to blend, but it creases on my eyelids and feels a bit tacky. :( I have to really pack it on for the color to show up well. I don't use a base though, so maybe that's the problem. I also dislike how the plastic cap becomes damaged after a few times of recapping it. For the price however, it's not bad, and it's an inexpensive way of trying out many colors.

I like to use this as a base, or I will just use it by itself and put a darker shade in my crease. But it works great either way. I have a couple of other NYX eye pencils, they're highly pigmented, but this shade in particular gets the most use for me, I guess because it's so versatile.

I love to use this as a base or alone when i don't feel like wearing eyeshadow. I just wished there was more product in it. Otherwise, i love everything about this

I really loe this eye-pencil, I use it either as a cream base for pink eyeshadows or under my eyes as a liner and then smudge it abit, it's shimmery so it makes me look more awake, however it creases ALOT, I don't recommend using this as an eyeshadow alone.

I love NYX jumbo eye pencils!!!! I have this one and oyster. I had black bean but lost it... I depotted both strawberry milk and oyster and i use them as i would use a mac paint pot. It's very creamy and last hours. I will try eyeshadows over them to see if they are more pigmented and stay longer. I got these for 1.99 each at a beauty supply store and I'm going to purchase more of these in the other colors!!!

Pretty colour, but creases on my eyes easily. Nice and smooth to apply though.

I keep on trying to give these NYX Jumbo eye pencils love, since they seem to have a cult following. I'm having a hard time, however, since I find that they crease really easily, even over a base. I absolutely never use the one I have in Strawberry Milk, until just recently. While doing a pink/purple look, I used it in my inner corner/tearduct area, and also as a brow highlight. Although these pencils take a lot to make them work, in my experience, the look ended up being fabulous. Maybe now I'll try this one as a base for a pink shadow, as was suggested by a previous reviewer.

Great base for pink eyeshadow looks and goes great with my blue eyes. I don't find that this creases on me (when applied as a thin layer and using an eyeshadow primer), it is super cheap, really creamy, highly pigmented, easily accessible and lasts a really long time. I definitely will repurchase!

Love the colour. Adorable. Super creamy, easy to apply.
Don't wear without a base or else it will crease like crazy.
Try not to wear alone because it will slip off your face. It's like wearing a really liquidy foundation without setting it. Find a similar colour and place it on top to set it. Voila!

I use this as an eyeshadow base or by itself. Wonderfully creamy. Would buy this again in different colors. The pink doesn't tint your eyeshadow.
Only problem is figuring out how to sharpen it.

This pencil is so amazingly pretty pink! It's like a shimmery pink, but it's not barbie pink...It's just pretty. I usually use it alone, but it's easy enough to use it as a base and add eyeshadow. I like it alone though.
It has a nice staying power and it doesn't crease that much.

This and Milk were my first two jumbo eye pencils. I bought these about 6 mos ago and have added a few more.This color is stunning beneath UD Scratch. Before I had used primarily NARS and Benefit cream shadows. NARS seem to crease on me and while the Benefit shadows are better, the color range is limited. Each of these are $22 and $19 respectively so they have be something you really love. The NYX pencils don't seem to crease with a good primer and the price allows me to really experiment with different shades without guilt. At some point I'll probably try the MAC paint pot but there again, limited colors however probably great staples to have.
