I bought this and brought it ack the very next day. The part used on the inner rim of the lower lid was too hard and therefore it was difficult getting any color out of it in that sensitive area. The highlighter-part was easy to apply, but so absolutely translucent that it almost didn´t show up at all, neither on my browbone nor on the inner corner of my eyes. Not satisfied at all with this.

I got this on eBay a few months back (for a fraction of the retail price), and I'm so glad I did - I love this pencil! I'm always looking for a highlighting product that I can actually use and this is it! So simple, so easy!


I use this on the inner corner of my eyes, on the water line. It makes me look refreshed and awake which is no easy feat when I've been up studying all night. I also use the brow end to highlight my brow bone which makes a world of difference. However, if you use too much you can end up looking a little "frosty" and nutty. Apply sparingly and adjust accordingly.


It will probably take me forever to use this pencil up, but I'd definitely repurchase because I like the results.

Ive used this product for a while.. I do enjoy using the white eyeliner part to really make my eyes look awake and pop.

The highlighting end is just okay.

I have had this for 4 months and use it every day. I love it! I have been complemented on my eyes and how awake I look when I wear this. It is really easy to use and blends well. People who say it is dry should try sharpening it. I bought this with a gift card and will buy it again if it ever runs out! I find it lasts most of the day on my eyes.

Personally I'm really disappointed in this product and it just doesn't work for me. I purchased it to use as an eye high lighter, but this product when applied either in inner corner or the inner rim just melts and disperses into my under eye fine lines looking super gross and embarrassing. I have tried to apply it in the inner corner and under the brow bone setting it with an eyeshadow, but it still melts and runs after a few hours. I have even tried it as an eye shadow base, but it melts and creases horribly. After many failed attempts I have given up trying to make this product a part of my make-up routine.

This pencil is crap. I just got it from Sephora a week ago and it's going back ASAP. Both of the pencil sides are too dry so you have to press really hard (which makes my makeup come off). Plus the pigment is lacking, so there is almost no color - I can't see the highlighter color at all. The inner rim liner marginally works, but I have a Korres white eyeliner that works like 5x better.

Love this product! It gives me the perfect highlight in the center of my eyes and browbone. Smashbox highlighters of any form really work for me. I think they've got it down in highlighting skills. One stick of this has lasted me for years, if I ever use it all I will repurchase.

I use this product everyday as a part of my daily makeup routine. It gives the perfect highlight for the corners of my eyes, under my eyes and under my browline. I first purchased this product as part of a package and since then, have purchased another. They have changed the packaging a little since I first bought the product; now one of the sides (the more golden tone) of the pencil is smaller and is to be used specifically to highlight the waterline. I actually like this change.
The only problem that I have with this product is that it doesn't last all day. I have used primer after primer and yet after a few hours, you can see the crease lines on my eyes.

I do like this.. Don't really use the gold side though. I like the pink side.

I bought this awhie ago and i'm not quite sure of the price - actually maybe it came in a set...anyways for the logest time I was using it very sparingly because it was limited edition item - however it is coming back in the fall 2010 and my sources tell me that it will be part of the permanent collection(yay) - anyways getting down to business it is a wonderful product and quite unique - both sides are highlighters and can be used basically wherever you want to use them - i like to use the softer side more a peachy colour under my eyes along the lower lashline and into the corner of my eyes - i find it gives a really bright eyed and wide awake look that is very pretty and flattering. the other side more gold in tone can be used along the brow line as a highlighter there i like to use it along my cupids bow. Can't wait till it comes back into regular rotation

I LOVE this eye pencil! One side is a shimmery champagne/pink and the other side is golden. I use this all the time to brighten the inner corner of my eyes and use it to line my lower lash line to brighten my eye. I've used similar products like this before, but the best thing about this is that it LASTS all day. I also like that the pencil is thick rather than thin..makes is easier to apply and get my desired look.

This dual ended eye pencil is very versatile as I use it for several different applications. It is perfect for lining the water line and inner corners of the eye to give a wide-awake look. I find it is less harsh or obvious than using a white eyeliner. It can be used as a highlighter under the brow bone, on the bridge of the nose, around the lower orbital bone and cupids bow to give a soft dewy look. The pink shimmery side is great for neutral makeup application while the gold side is good for a bronzy-tanned look. The only down side to this product is that it rubs off very easily. It can make you look too shimmery if you blend it too much.

This dual ended eye brightener pencil was part of Smashbox's Untamed Collection. One side is gold and the other side is peach/champagne with a hint of shimmer. I use it on my waterline and also on my tear ducts to give me that wide-awake look. I like this because it's not as stark compared to the white eye liners that people use. It is very subtle and I use mine everyday for my neutral looks. It goes on smoothly on my waterline, it doesn't tug and it lasts the whole day. You can also use it to highlight under your brows and the cupid's bow. Definite buy!
