Jordana Eyeliner Pencil Review
I have blue eyes that are pretty dull in color so I had been looking for the perfect brand of eyeliner to use. I have probably bought every cheap drugstore eyeliner brand you can think of hoping to find a gem. Finally, after spending lots of money on duds I found Jordana's eyeliners. It was the cheapest one on the shelf at the time so I was hesitant to even try it. I thought what the heck and purchased it for under $3.
When I got home I unwrapped the Jordana pencil and opened it. I didn't realize it was a retractable pencil but it didn't bother me. I started applying it to my upper lashes and man, it went on SO smooth! Usually my drugstore eyeliners have to be broken in to get a nice line. Jordanas eyeliner just glided over my eyelid and made a perfect straight line. I bought this pencil in color Blue Devine and boy did it bring out my blue eyes! I had always been told blue eyeliner took away from your natural eye color but I think they are wrong. I use Jordanas eyeliner everyday in my morning makeup routine and would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheaper alternative! The only drawback is when the pencil isn't sharp anymore, it kind of smears but it works.
If you can't find any on Amazon look at Walgreens here :)
NYX Milk Jumbo Pencil Review
I had been looking for the perfect base white pencil for my eyelids forever until I found my favorite. I saw that NYX was having a great deal at my local drugstore and saw a product called NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk.
It looked like it was high quality but I wasn't positive. The price of this NYX jumbo pencil was reasonable so I bought it. When I got home I went straight to my bathroom mirror, got out my eyeshadow palette and unwrapped my new milk pencil.
After wiping it over my eyelid, I could not believe how pigmented this pencil was! You could see this color white a mile away (this is very hard to find in eye pencils). The texture was nice and creamy which made it so easy to apply evenly. After that I did my normal eyeshadow routine but this time, the colors absolutely popped! It made my blue eyes look amazing for the first time ever. About 8 hours later this NYX milk jumbo pencil was still on my eyes! None of my eyeshadow had rubbed or fallen off!
Not only is this milk pencil great for a base coat but I also use it on my inner eye line and in the corner of my tear ducts. I definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to make their eyes look gorgeous :)
