The NYX eyeliner pencils are wonderful. I enjoy the wide color selection. I have 901 Black, 927 Acid Green, 928 Velvet and 906 White. Buildable creamy pencils that last all day. I like the last power and color pay off. I would for sure go out and get more colors in this line.

I use 903 Dark Brown to color my eyebrows (and occasionally to line my eyes). It stays put in my eyebrows and looks natural. The only problem is that when I use it as eyeliner, it sometimes transfers onto my lids a bit. A decent pencil, would buy again for my eyebrows.

After having a reaction to the HD Concealer from NYX I should have stayed clear from any of their eye products, but alas I didn't. It irritated my sensitive eyes. It wasn't as dark as I thought it would be and it seemed to go smoother on the back of my hand then my eye. It tugged a little bit while applying it on my eye lid. Not nearly as nice as my Urban Decay eyeliner I'm used to. All in all I just wasn't impressed, but it was dirt cheap... so I guess you get what you pay for? I will be keeping it as a brow pencil since it is a nice brow color.

I have this in White, I like how I can use it to brighten up my lids as a base but mainly using it for my waterline. I know it don't really last but I don't mind touching up my waterline because this is rather opaque!
Definitely repurchasing when I'm done because I like how it just brightens my eye looks!

I bought this in 928 velvet because I wanted a nudeish liner for everyday for work. I got it at ulta a while ago for bogo 50% off do I paid $2. This is a great liner its like a golden nude with a sheen, lastly me around 4 hours which I like. Its also very smooth going on and it doesn't pull it tug. I'd repurchase this and other colors.

I love my Jumbo Pencil so I thought why not (plus better reviews than UD 24/7)
Price: $4.47
Colour:
•Black- intense matte black
•White- soft white
•Seafoam Green- light teal-blue w/sheen
•Velvet- browned beige w/sheen
Pigmentation: full
Texture: creamy
All of these stay on for hours and can be used as a base as well :)
I love the black for my brows or upper lash line, white for waterline, and Velvet for lower lashline to smoke them up without being in-ur-face. And Sea Foam Green (total misnomer) is the perfect pop of colour on the lower lashline!
And for the price, they are outstanding! I'm gonna keep buying the other colours for sure

I use the white in the inner corner of my eye only and i love it. I think it's a soft texture that's not cakey, for me it stayed on fine! I think it's really nice for daytime wear, as its not too thick or strong! At night time it probably wouldnt stand out though.

I only bought the Baby pink shade as an eye brightener. It actually works pretty well. It's not as creamy as Stila's apricot liner, but that just makes it much better because it does not transfer to your bottom eyelashes.

I love NYX products but of the ones I've tried, their Slim Eye Pencils are probably my least favorite. While they are very cheap and tempting to collect in every one of their colors, I think I prefer their creamier pencils including the Jumbo Eye Pencil and their Retractable Waterproof Pencil for the ease of application, since it hardly takes any effort at all to get some serious color pay-off. This isn't always the same for their Slim Eye Pencils. I have bought a range of colors including whites, purples, yellows and greens, and recently obtained a black one for the heck of it; I notice that there is a lot of inconsistency in formulation (some colors are far softer/more pigmented than others). It's a shame, because they have a huge range of colors compared to most affordable brands, but some of the formulas can be so stiff that they're not comfortable to apply without trying to poke your eye out. However, I have found a little work-around this in that warming the pencils somehow prior to applying seems to help with the stiffness/pigmentation problem I have had with these. Try leaving the pencils next to heating hair-styling tools, and then applying them.

I picked this up at Ulta the other day because I was looking for a brown pencil liner that didn't cost a ton. I have the UD 24/7 pencil in black and brown but since they're so soft and need to be sharpened frequently, I figured I'd need a replacement soon. These were only around $3 so I got one in brown. I wanted a subtle eyeliner that's semi-soft and doesn't smear all over.
This pencil glides on pretty easily but it's not super soft like a kohl pencil. The color is a perfect shade of brown. It makes my eyes look natural with a slight enhancement. These are great for the price and I will repurchase in the future.

I have this in black, white and 24 karat. What I like about this product is that it is very pigmented, creamy and easy to apply. It's pretty cheap too. However, these do not last very long even with a primer on, plus, the texture being too creamy, makes it really hard to sharpen. I find that after a few hours (on my oily lids and humid weather), these start to smudge and bleed especially under my eyes making me look like a raccoon. Will I buy again? Not really.

I have this in black and while it isn't the blackest black I've ever seen, it's still really decent and for the price you really can't complain. I find that it can smudge under my eyes, but honestly I haven't yet found an eye liner that doesn't, so it's not a big deal to me. The product itself is quite smooth to apple and isn't overly hard or soft - a happy medium. It lasts pretty well on my eyes, not the longest lasting, but a lot better than other eyeliners I've tried and this is much cheaper.

I have a few of these (Silver, Emerald, Sapphire) to name a few. The color payoff is excellent, but on my oily lids, these do not last very long. Even with a primer, the outer corner and tear duct areas start to run after a couple of hours.

I enjoy this eyeliner fairly well. It glides on smoothly and has very good color pay off. I've tested the lasting power on my hand and it faded a bit, but on the eye it stays fairly well. I LOVE the NYX slim eye pencil in 24 karat, against my warm skintone, this pencil looks amazing underneath the lower lashline, it makes my brown eyes pop, attracts light to my eyes, and doesn't look crazy. Totally will recommend.

I love these eyeliners. I have three: Satin Blue, Black, and Black Brown. They're the eyeliners that I just instinctively will reach for. These pencils glide on so easily but aren't too creamy. The packaging is also great. My favorite part about these is that they only cost $3 and I barely ever have to sharpen them because they last so long. They don't smudge or run down my face (even in the heat!). They also last a pretty long time on the waterline. I think these are definitely my HG eyeliners!
EDIT: I thought these were amazing before, but I got a little emotional today and started crying. This liner stayed completely in place! Didn't run down my face at all! I know they're not advertised as waterproof, but in my opinion they definitely are!

I have this in the Copper color and I LOVE it! It's more of a pinkish copper than a gold or bronze-ish copper. It looks great with blue eyes. It glides on very smoothly, makes a nice line, and stays perfect all day. And you can't beat the price! I will probably try other colors too. Highly recommend this color, especially for those with blue eyes.

This is the best eyeliner EVER!!! I was at Ulta just looking around and the NYX Cosmetics counter was in my mind so I looked at some of their stuff and bought a eyeliner pencil in Brown. It looks very pretty and works well and is pigmented!! I will buy again and maybe some different colors too.
