Works wonders!

I asked a question on the forum about this 6 months ago for a suggestion of an eyeliner pencil that wasn't pure white and a lot of the ladies mentioned this pencil.

I purchased this in Light because I wanted to use this as bottom liner and I have been using this a lot. The formula is soft and creamy, it is a light beige shade and glides on very easy.

I find that because it goes on really easy, the stay power is gone by the 5th hour, I would've like it to have a little more stay power.

It gives my under eye a brighter fresh look and opens my eyes more.

I also use this in the middle of my mouth when I wear nude lipstick, it gives an illusion that I have bigger lips and gives a light ombre effect.

If Im in a rush to do my eyebrows I add this under my eyebrows to sharpen the edge and use a cotton bud to fade it slightly.

It is a really versatile and cheap product to use, I highly recommend this.

Great for days when you need a pick me up

I use this when I need to go to work and im tired, hung over or just look like a zombie. It pigmented last a few hours in the waterline, but its not as creamy as i would like it too be, i dont know if its because of the formula or because its so cold in NZ right now but i usually warm it up on my hand before going into the waterline. It was pretty cheap aswell (i buy majority of my makeup online as its cheaper). good eyeliner I have light-med skin tone and find that this nude is perfect for brightening my eyes, white is way too harsh for me, so if your looking for something to brighten your eyes and you nc25 or darker i would recommend this.

Doesnt quite have the pigmentation I hoped for

I purchased this Nyx wonder pencil for one purpose primarily- for my lower waterline to brighten the eye and give it a larger appearance. I had been on the hunt for yonks for a flesh toned waterliner, there are tonnes of white liners on the market but on my skin tone these look quite stark for daytime.

The first time I used this liner I thought it hadn't worked at all! I had the expectation that it would transfer a nice clean nude line onto my waterline. When I swatched it on my hand it looked as if it should do the job. Unfortunately I guess I have very watery eyes as this makes only a very very subtle difference on my waterline. If I kind of dry off my waterline with a Q-tip prior to application I get a slightly more consistent application. In general however, I can barely tell that I have added another step to my makeup routine. I have not used this as a concealer as its a little thick for my liking. This is quite nice to sharpen up around your lips though, especially when wearing a bold lip, as I have quite a poorly defined lipline. Overall I will continue to pull this out on occasion and hope that it has made some subtle difference to my red waterline, and on the odd occasion when I wear a bold lip. I will be on the lookout for more of a waterproof/gel formulation to replace this however (have heard good things about the Rimmel nude eyeliner)

Great Pencil

This pencil is pretty amazing and can be used for lots of things. I found it not too creamy but easily bendable. The pigment is really good and glides on easily. I use it to highlight my brows, in my waterline, sharpen up around my lipstick and as a highlighter. It is just an all round good product to try out :) I found it not too creamy but easily blendable.

Fantastic multi-use product.

I already had a similar coloured product when this first came out, but wanted to try it anyway. See if it was a cheaper alternative. It certainly is, and I reach for it more than it's more expensive counterparts. It hits the right balance between being creamy and blendable, but not so much that it slides right off. It works for concealing, highlighting, reverse lining the lips, and brightening the eyes. I can't recommend it enough.

Tips: This is the perfect product to reshape lips, use it as a reverse lipliner to adjust the lip shape to suit you or your makeup look. It also helps to make a flawless base to make your lip colour pop.

Wonder pencil?

I think for the price this is not at all a bad product however, I find that when using this on my waterline it just doesn't last as I get quite bad allergies and have watery eyes. It's also not really great as a concealer on the face as it can be quite thick and cakey. What I do really love this product for is cleaning up around my lipline if I'm wearing a bold lip or if I've overdrawn my lips. It gives a crisp, clean line and makes my lipstick look perfect.

Best thing for my waterline!

So this pencil has 3 uses but I only use it in my waterline. I've been looking for a perfect flesh toned liner for years and I found it! This is super creamy and lasts almost all day in my waterline. It doesn't hurt or tug at my eyes when I apply it and it is the perfect shade to brighten up my eyes. I have had this for ages and i feel like it'll last me forever

Tips: Make sure it's always sharp, it's hard to apply when it's blunt

The secret to looking awake

Skin coloured pencils are my absolute gold trick to looking awake. They are much better than white eyeliners as they look more natural.

I have been using a Lord and Berry pencil to line my inner waterline for about a year now. I wanted a second pencil for my makeup bag at work and because of the low price point (half the price of Lord and Berry), I decided to give this one a whirl. Though not as creamy as the Lord and Berry, this is still very smooth for an eyeliner. Because it is not too smooth, I have been using it as a concealer around the edge of my lips when applying dark coloured lipsticks to smooth out the lines.

I've been very impressed with this pencil and I'll definitely purchase it again.

Wonderful :P

I had been wanting to try this for ages - so when NYX had a 40% off sale I finally purchased it. I got it in the shade light and purchased it with the intention of using it as a lip liner.

I love the packaging of this - the design is really sleek and pretty. This is a pencil that you sharpen, which isn't my preferred type of pencil (I prefer a retractable pencil), but I still like this.

The cream is soft but not too soft - it is the perfect consistency to use to line your lips. I love that this can be used under any lip colour. I found that with brighter lipsticks this also helps them look more vibrant. This also stops any bleeding or feathering of my lipstick.

I have also used this to line my waterline and it feels really comfortable to use for that purpose. However, this doesn't last all day on my waterline.

Overall I was really pleased with this pencil's performance. I love that you can use it for many different purposes and it is super affordable. I will definitely be repurchasing this.

Love my little wonder!

I remember using a lip liner when I was a teen. That's when the liner was darker than the colour of the lippy. As I've only just started buying lipsticks and stains, I wanted something that would do any colour.

I have some gloss and stains that bleed into the lines around my lips. I hate it but love the colours. So investigating I went, this was recommended to me on here.

It's a thin wooden pencil that needs sharpened. I like that.... The colour is lighter than my actual lip colour. I don't mind this at all, means I can "tidy" up my lips. When I put the bleeding lippys on, this stops that right away! I love that! If I make a mistake with the lip colour, I can draw over the mistake with this, this is where I like the face that I can sharpen the pencil. If the colour goes onto the pencil, sharpen it away.

I have used this on blemishes and marks on my face and it hides them. I do have other products I prefer for this job. I've also used as a eye liner, but again I have preferred products for that job.

Tips: Normally I like a pencil to be sharp, I actually prefer this more blunt when using around my lip line. Gives a less prominent sharp line
