Pros and Cons :

I was rather excited to use these pencils. The outer packaging with all the fun cartoon print is to die for. The actual pencils, though practical, are a bit boring to be honest. Both the ends of the pencils are of the same color as the actual pencils. These are twist up eyeliner pencils. The end of the the pencils include a little sharpener. That’s always a good idea.

These pencils are creamy but not super creamy. They don’t tug or pull and glide on easily. On upper eyelids they stay on super long. I mean I have worn them for crazy 9-10 hours and these didn’t budge. But on waterline, the eyeliner pretty much disappeared within 2 hours or so.

The pencils have never stung my eyes or caused any sensitivity. These are very pigmented pencils but the kind of intensity you get on upper lash line is not the same as when you wear these on waterline.

These pencils almost feel weightless when you hold them. That gives a better control for the application.

Now the drawbacks :

These pencils break so much. I was using the black pencil on waterline and a little piece of the pencil broke on my waterline itself. I got saved from an accident to be honest.A little extra pressure and these pencils break. I have these pencils for a while now. I notice that some of them have have come off the end completely. Every time I open a pencil, the whole pencil stick kind of falls out. It’s quite unacceptable.

Overall, I would only give a 3/5 to these pencils. I feel there is a room for improvement for these. These are good pigmentation wise and include some of the really pretty colors but I am not too happy with these ones.
