Remember buying 99¢jumbo eye and lip pencils from the drug store when you were a
teenager? Well, they have made a big and bold return in the beauty world. However, they aren’t
your pencils from the 90’s. They have longer wearability, vary in textures and come in a variety
of hues – all great for Spring 2012. You can use them as an overall lip color, blended out as an
eyeshadow, underneath shadow as a base, and as an eyeliner. Multipurpose heaven!

Here are some of the standout jumbo pencils that are available:

EYES

NARS Soft Touch Shadow Pencil ($24)
Sephora Jumbo Liner 12HR Wear Waterproof ($10)
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil ($4.50)

LIPS

INGLOT Matte Collection AMC Lip Pencil ($11)
NYX Jumbo Lip Pencil ($4.50)
Sephora Ultra Vinyl Lip Pencil ($12)

    Ladies. Funds running low? Those NYX jumbo sticks are a great sub for MAC.

  2. I love the NYX jumbo pencils. Can’t find a sharpener, though.

    I use the NYX Jumbo shadow pencil in Cottage Cheese sometimes as a highlight for my browbone, cheeks, and nose.
    & I’ve been thinking about trying the Tarte lip pencils, and Urban Decay concealer pencils.
    They are great for travel.
