Review & Swatches : NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil

Hey girls!

Cred ca v-ati dat seama din lista cu produsele folosite de la fiecare machiaj, cat si din tutorialele mele, ca nu exista look fara primer si baza :)). Primerul il folosesc pentru a ma asigura ca look-ul rezista cu succes intreaga zi, iar baza pentru ca fardurile sa adere de pleoape si sa fie cat mai intense. Baza poate fi una speciala (eyeshadow base) sau se poate referi la fardurile crema si creioane cremoase.

If you’ve seen the lists of products used in my looks or my tutorials, you know I never do a look without primer and base. I use the primer to  make sure the make-up stays put the entire day, and I use the base to make the eye shadows more intense. The base can be a specific product (eyeshadow base) or it can be a cream eye-shadow or creamy eye pencils. 

Produsele mele preferate in materie de baza sunt creioanele NYX Jumbo! Pana acum aveam doar Milk si Horse Raddish (review & swatches), iar acum colectia mea s-a imbogatit cu alte 5 nuante. Sunt foarte cremoase, se intind si se amesteca usor. Keep in mind ca aveti nevoie de o ascutitoare mare pentru ele, eu folosesc una de la Bourjois.

My favorite products to use as a base are the NYX Jumbo eye pencils! Until a while ago I only had Milk and Horse Raddish (review & swatches) and now I’ve added 5 more shades to my collection. They’re very creamy, easy to apply and blend. Keep in mind that you need a large sharpener for them, I use one from Bourjois.
 

  • NYX Jumbo – Cottage Cheese
Este un alb sidefat, foarte intens. Puteti sa-l folositi singur in coltul interior sau sub cel mai inalt punct al sprancenei, pentru highlight, sau puteti sa-l folositi ca baza pentru farduri, cum va ziceam mai sus. Mie imi place sa-l aplic si pe waterline pentru ca are un aspect mai soft decat Milk. Mi se pare un must-have pentru machiajele shimmery!
It’s a very intense, pearly white. You can use it in the inner corner and under the highest point of the brow to highlight, or you can use it as a base for you eye-shadow, as I said earlier. I like to apply it on the waterline because it looks softer than Milk. I think it’s a must-have for shimmery looks!

  • NYX Jumbo – French Fries
Cautam o nuanta care sa imi inlocuiasca mult folosit-ul Avon Arabian Glow. Ceva ca Gold, Pure Gold sau Bronze pentu a-l putea folosi ca baza in cazul fardurilor aurii sau galbene. Era available doar French Fries din familia asta de culori, un maro auriu foarte dragut. Are un feel vintage, e super pentru perioada asta si machiaje pamantii, dar tot imi doresc o nuanta din cele 3 mentionate anterior pentru vara :D.

I was looking for a shade to replace my beloved Avon Arabian Glow. Something like Gold, Pure Gold or Bronze to use as a base for gold and yellow eye-shadows. French Fries was the only one available in this family of colors, a very nice golden brown. It has a vintage feel, it’s great for this time of year and earthy looks, but I still want one of the 3 mentioned above for summertime : D.

  • NYX Jumbo – Rust
Una din culorile mele preferate! E un burgundy superb, perfect pentru toamna sau look-uri glamorous.

One of my favorite colors! It’s a gorgeous burgundy, perfect for fall or glamorous looks.

  • NYX Jumbo – Purple
Si aceasta e o culoare superba! A iesit albastra aici, dar puteti sa o vedeti mai bine in swatch-uri. Stiam ca trebuie s-o am pentru ca sunt o mare pasionata machiaje mov si albastre.

Another gorgeous color! It came out blue in these pics, but you can see it better in the swatches below. I knew I had to have it because I’m a sucker for purple and blue make-up looks.
  • NYX Jumbo – Black Bean
Alaturi de Milk si Cottage Cheese, acesta este un must have in opinia mea. E un negru intens cu putin shimmer. Pe langa look-urile clasice smoky, ador sa-l folosesc si in combinatie cu alte culori pentru a le intensifica si adanci si pentru a le schimba nuanta.
Along with Cottage Cheese and Milk, this is a must have in my opinion. It is a deep black with little shimmer specks. Apart from classic smoky looks, I love to use it in combination with other colors to enhance and deepen them and to change their shade.

Mai jos aveti o demonstratie: cum arata fardurile (paleta MUA Dusk til Dawn) aplicate direct pe piele si cum arata aplicate peste un creion NYX Jumbo:

Here is a demonstration: how the eye-shadows (MUA Dusk til Dawn palette) look applied directly to the skin and how they look applied over NYX Jumbo pencil:

Un lucru foarte important de retinut in folosirea acestor creioane e ca trebuie sa aveti grija sa aplicati o cantitate mica si sa o amestecati bine pentru a nu risca sa vi se stranga fardul in cute. Pe langa cresterea intensitatii culorii, puteti sa va transformati fardurile folosind diferite creioane. Acelasi fard poate sa capete nuante diferite in functie de creionul folosit.

A very important thing to remember when using these pencils is that you must be careful to apply a small amount and blend it very well so that it doesn’t crease. Apart from making your eyeshadow more intense, you can also transform them using different pencils. The same product can have different shades depending on the pencil you use.
