I love this colour! I heard that it is a REALLY close dupe for Chanel illusion d'ombre in "Emerveille" which is about $36 (in terms of colour, not sure about the texture, how many hours you can wear it etc.)

Yogurt is a shimmery light pink-champagne that's very comparable to Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencils in Sin.
It's versatile and can be worn as an all-over-lid wash, paired with other eyeshadows, as a base to bring out the color of other eyeshadows, or as a highlight (for eyes and the face, but for the face you might want to apply translucent powder on top).
The formula is very creamy, smooth, and generally long-lasting. I apply it directly to the lid then blend it out with my fingers, but I know a number of people who prefer to use a brush. Either way works, really.
However, I lowered the rating because it creases. Based on the other reviews here, I'm not the only one who has experienced this. The creasing does minimize with Urban Decay Primer Potion and/or a MAC Paint Pot or Maybelline Color Tattoo underneath, but the creasing isn't completely eliminated, and I would rather not need to wear anything underneath.
Despite the creasing, though, it lasts for a good solid 6 hours.
Also, the pricing is incredibly cheap! It retails for $4.50 each, but I bought mine from Cherry Culture for $3.40 each! With 5 g of product, you can be sure it's going to last you a long time.
Would I repurchase? Yes, but mainly because I'd rather not pay $20 for UD 24/7 Shadow Pencils that have 2.8 g, or, even worse, $24 for LM Caviar Sticks that only have 0.05 g!!!

Pros:
-pigmented
-great color
-good base
-good eyeshadow
Cons:
-Lid breaks easily
Overall, you cannot go wrong with ANY of the NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils. This one is my favorite, as it has a great neutral shimmery color. It's fantastic as an eyeshadow, but is also absolutely gorgeous as a base. It's also just as incredible to brighten the inner corner of your eye. If you had to pick ONE pencil, this is the one you should choose.

This is a really pretty shimmery, champagne-y pink color. Since this product is in pencil form, it's easily portable. It makes touching up your eyeshadow really easy, because you just color it on. You will need to reapply about midday though. It fades quickly, even with a primer. But it's still a nice everyday color to just swipe on.

In response to LadySonoma's response claiming people are dumb that comment on this products creaseness when not using a primer, I say this:
I use a Primer and it STILL creases. And it fades - ridiculously easy. (It is by no stretch of the imagination a 'cheap' primer either).
Do you have any other lightbulb comments?
As a base, I'm yet to try it.

I really like this eye shadow/eyeliner it is a great color but not what I expected, it is more muted and brownish with hints of pink. But I still really do like it it goes on easy and doesn't tug on your eyes, it doesn't settle into creases it just glides over then, also the eye pencils come in a ton of colors and mine buy one get one free at ulta!!! You really can't go wrong with this!!

This is a cream eye shadow.
I do enjoy using this as a base but as an eye shadow itself no, because it will crease too much.
The overall product is too slick. ALWAYS remember to use your (clean) fingers to pat the shadow on your lid. If you just apply and smear it will crease guaranteed.
I really dont like that you have to buy a $5 special sharpener for your jumbo eyeshdaow pencils. Even the large drugstore ones, they dont fit in.

Like most others I use this as a base for my neutral eyeshadows. It's such a safe color pick you can't go wrong. My only complaint is that I wish it was a twist up kinda product like the clinque chubby sticks. Besides that it's a very decent product at an affordable price.

I love this as a base for my neutral shadows, it is so creamy and helps my eyeshadow stand out. It also looks nice worn on its own. My eye look lasts all day with this under it. It's very glowy and pretty, I recommend it.

I'm just now finding my way to NYX products, as I've typically been a more high end kinda gal, but I've heard good things about some of their offerings...
NYX is a cruelty-free brand, and quite inexpensive... So, after reading and watching multiple reviews of some of their products, I went ahead and made the plunge. One of my first purchases was three of these jumbo pencils.
So far, I'm loving them! This color is gorgeous and I found it quite useful for highlighting the inner corner of my eye (it's very frosty). It's very beautiful as a color, particularly for me, as it is very similar to one of my favorite shades from Urban Decay. This pencil in particular is a great dupe (actually, it's better, as it's more pigmented) for the color "Sin" from the original Naked pallette.
The only, minor, complaint that I have about this pencil is that it did not seem to last as long as I would have liked in the inner corner throughout the day (even though I used a primer), but it still lasted long enough for the effect to be there most of the day. These go on smooth and are somewhat easy to blend, and for the price, you really can't go wrong! I am probably going to buy several more in other colors when I make some room in my train case :)

I love these NYX jumbo eye shadow pencils. I have Yogurt, French Fries, Rust and Milk. Yogurt is my favorite for an all over light shimmery eye,, milk is great for highlightling, Rust and French Fries are great crease colors. They are super creamy and apply well and have pretty good staying power.

Love this! I like to line under my lower lashline and around my inner corners of my eyes and it makes them really sparkle! It gives your eyes a nice glow and makes them pop. I love the smooth consistency and blendability. A little goes a long way, and if you cake it on, it tends to chunk up and crease. But go easy on it and you have a little shimmer that looks gorgeous. Just be careful not to close the cap too tightly or it will split.

Swatched this and was scared of the shimmer since it usually looks bad on me, but after applying to my eyelids, wow!! Very pretty color and it's more like a soft glow, not glittery and the shimmer doesn't emphasize any lines on my eyelids. Lasted most of the day, used over UDPP. Beautiful, inexpensive, and will be convenient to have in my makeup bag, small so it won't take up too much space :)

Yes, it creases. That's what happens when you use a creamy pencil. But if you let the crease-factor scare you away from using this, you're missing out on a seriously awesome product. I have three other Jumbo pencils and this one is, without question, my favorite. I have very pale skin and this is a shimmery nude color on me. Very neutral. You can wear it over primer and under any eyeshadow to make the color pop. It really minimizes fall-out as well because the shadow sort of adheres to the lid. These are very affordable (I got mine from cherryculture on sale, but they're still reasonable at Ulta) and a must-have for your collection.

Great pencil.
I don't get all the silly people talking about creasing.
It just seems like common sense that you use a primer under a cream based shadow, or any pencil cream variant.
It's unfair for people to be dumb and blame the company.

It can crease when on my lids because I have super super oily lids, but not terribly so (with primer underneath). I use this practically everyday just as an inner corner highlight. I use this (without primer because I don't worry about creasing there), and Urban Decay's Sin over it. It is the exact same color so it's a great base for it. Love it for that.

I was wanting one of the UD shadow sticks in Sin really badly, so I picked this up as an alternative. It seemed similar in color based on my in-store swatching and wears well enough. It smudges a little (even over UDPP) but I set it with a little shadow and it's not bad.
What I love about this pencil is that it's so smooth and easy to apply. If I'm short on time I can swipe it on and blend it quickly, it's pigmented but looks good and blends well that it's almost foolproof.
For the price, I'm extremely happy and would definitely purchase more of these pencils.

This is the first NYX shadow stick I have purchased. Ive been using it everyday and so far I really like it. It's perfect for a neutral look, very pigmented, has creamy texture, glides on smoothly and blends nicely. The only con is that it does crease...but thats only if you use it alone. So I prefer to put this on a base and apply powder shadow on top, which helps set it in place. Or instead of applying all over my lids, I will use it in the inner corners and it really brightens up my eyes! So, overall I really do like this and plan on buying more!

Really lovely product!
It's a kind of champagne goldish nude color and it's so convenient to use! I use this as an eyeshadow base, or just even wear it alone!! It does crease throughout the day alone, but with a primer it's fine!

I really like this pencil, it's a little creamier than the jumbo pencil in ''milk'' so it's easier to apply and blend. I use it as an eyeshadow base base whenever I'm doing a natural look. It makes the eyeshadow stay on longer and I haven't noticed any creasing when using this product. I'm happy with the packaging as well, the cap doesn't fall off and it hasn't broken yet.
Edit: I started using this in the inner corner of my eyes as well and it works great, really brightens up my face.
