This could've been written by me! I do not like the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils I bought during Cherry Culture's big sale. They crease on me, no matter what base I use (UD PP, TFSI, MAC Paints, etc.). Saaad! I'm only out a few dollars, but really it's the disappointment that bothers me. These were raved about so much, and they just didn't live up to the hype.

First, I think you should depot them, they are way easier to use that way...

Then you can use an oval synthetic brush to apply it. Put just a tiny amount on the inner corners of your eyes and spread it over the whole lid from there - it's best to use as little as possible to avoid creasing.
You can also try the 217 to spread it over the lid.

I love the jumbo pencils, next I might try the shadesticks tho, the pencils are fine as long as u dont apply too much on the lid
