NYX Professional Makeup Slim Eye Pencil, Creamy longwear eyeliner, Black Brown

I love the eye liners and the way the glide on, they last all day and the colors are perfect. However, I have noticed the last couple of times that they are hard to sharpen. They sharpen more on one side or the tips break off causing you to have to sharpen it more. I thought maybe my sharpener was getting dull, so I bought a new, same thing. I don't know if they are being made out of the same material or if I just received some older ones. I will say that it happened with both of the colors that I ordered so I can't say that it was one or the other. I do love them and will continue to purchase them because other than the sharpening issue, they are amazing!

I purchased this product in White, hoping for something that would easily glide across my waterline. I previously purchased the Nyx Slide On Pencil in Pure White, thinking that may work a little better than just a plain wood pencil, however that one broke the second I tried to sharpen it and it was a mess. So I pitched it and bought this instead, knowing this would sharpen better. And it definitely does sharpen better, however the color pay off is not nearly as good, and applying it is more difficult. I find myself having to go back over and over everything I had just done, and it never gets as white as I hope. It is not totally disappointing, however it isn't quite up to my standards either. (For something that works super well, I recommend Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk. Although it looks bulky, it applies bright color to the water line...or the rest of your eye to... beautifully.)
