review: nyx jumbo eye pencil in milk

nyx jumbo eye pencil in milk is a great base for eye shadow. it also is a great stand-alone shadow as well. i have learned that it allows shadow to stick to it and stay on almost all day, no primer necessary. it also allows for shadow colors to really pop and gives a more intense backdrop for the shadow you have selected to use.

the consistency of this pencil is extremely creamy which allows for blending. it is also a matte white color which is very versatile for whether or not you want to keep your eye shadow matte.

i initially purchased this pencil from ulta to use for my mermaid halloween costume (see below for a picture - you can't really notice the turquoise as much, but you can see nyx in milk around my tear duct and waterline). i wanted to use different shades of turquoise shadows and wished to use white in order to intensify the colors. this worked and stayed on all night, no reapplication necessary. i also used false lashes and the use of this product did not pose a problem.

this product is also extremely affordable. i believe that i paid around $3.00 for it. unfortunately, although i purchased it at ulta, it is not for sale on the website.

stay posted - i will be reviewing other nyx jumbo pencil colors soon!
