No offense but isn't it obvious...

You apply it on your lips like lipstick.
Same for the eyes. It's meant to be used as a cream shadow. Just apply it on the eye and blend.

I have a jumbo eye pencil and it does crease, so use a base under it.

They're a great product.

You can use them alone, or use them as a base for e/s.
I use them as a base for e/s and pigments.
Some of them handle better then others but with practice you will get it

I have a ton of the NYX Jumbo Pencils and use them as base for my e/s and pigments. They do crease on me after like 5 hours so if you're wearing them for longer wear another base under the pencils.

I love NYX

I use them as a base for eyeshadows as well..But I have been putting them on top of my Paint Pots lately just for the pop of color..Because like the other ladies stated they do crease after a few hours.

I use them as bases too, or if I'm lazy I'll use it as a shadow and just blend out the edges. Some of them are really.. mushy though. I have a green one and a purple/blue one that creases really badly.

No-no-no...Ladies, she bought NYX Jumbo LIP Pencils, not eye pencils...Jumbo LIP Pencils can be used just like a lipstick, it´s the same texture.

Its fun buying makeup isn't it? Then you get home and you're wondering 'ok what do I do now?!?'

lol

I'd say experiment with the different colours & see which ones match really well with your eyeshadows/pigments...using the pencils as a base helps to make your eyeshadows & pigments more vibrant

Another option I love to do is using the search function on Specktra: type in the product & colour that you bought and see what comes up. If they have results in the Member FOTDs section, Tutorial section and/or the Recommendation section check them out to learn how others are using the same products you have

I use mine as a base under my pigments. Use another base(like UDPP) though because it will crease(I learned the hard way)

I actually used the jumbo eyeliner in Milk for lining my waterline. It lasted for a really long time and it didn't bother my sensitive eyes!

i always use the jumbo eye pencils as a base under my eyeshadow but i always put an eye primer underneath the jumbo pencils to make everything last longer without creasing. also when applying the eye pencils you want to kind of spread it out over your eye lid becuz it will crease if you don't.

You would use the jumbo lip pencils under your lipstick or lipgloss to intensify the color and the same goes for the jumbo eye pencils, they're used as an eye shadow base to intensify your eyeshadows.. hth!

Not a fan of the lip pencils, the eye pencils ROCK, I went to a beauty supply store on Fordham Rd the other day, lo and behold, they had EVERY COLOUR!! I was in heaven :0
Anyway , to add on to what everyone else said, I also use them as a base, after a primer, or just alone, when I am in a rush, I use French Fries as a highlight, it's prettyful

Some I depot, like Milk, I buy like 2 and depot them into this press powder pot thingy from ELF

Boa Sorte!

what i did with my jumbo pencils is depot them and put them into little bead jars. i really hate sharpening so that way i can just apply with a brush on my lids.

if u dont know how..i learned from youtube videos...hair dryer, pliers, and a container is all u need

I recently bought my first Jumbo Eye Pencils when they had that last big sale. Man, I wish I had researched more on these, I HATE they way they crease! I never have problems with eye products creasing on me, *and* I use UDPP! They have such pretty colors, too.
