NYX Slim Pencil -906 Argent (Quick Review +Multiple Uses)


Wohooo!! Hello girls!!
Welcome back to my blog and Today's post is a two in one because i am giving a quick review of the product and i have some tips and tricks to use thaT.



So I guess around three months ago i bought this pencil from snapdeal thinking it's a white pencil and is just a slim and smaller version of NYX jumbo pencil in milk because that pencil is not easily available so i instantly pick this up but when i received my parcel i found that it is silver :( and i had one already!
But then i compared both and found that this is a better one because it has no chunky glittery particles and is smooth enough and is light.
If you really wants to line your eyelids like an eyeliner with this then this isn't a good choice for you but i have so many ways to use it and that is why i really like it and i am listing all down below so that you can get an idea on how you can actually use this one single product for different uses and if you don't have this one then use whatever pencil you have at home because its not that good even so i don't recommend this to anyone!







I Got mine from snapdeal for 150 INR (which is ok price for a not so good not so bad pencil) but some sites sell it for 250 or above!


As an eyeshadow Base
You might have seen in my tutorials that i really use this pencil a lot as my base beneath because a strong base beneath make the eyeshadows to pop and look more vibrant than ever.
While using this as a base keep in mind that whatever shadow you put above isn't matte (because that might affect the appearance and texture of your shadow) and try to put only shadows which has silver sparkles in it.

And apply this base only on your lid area because you don't want your whole eye to be shimmery

2. As an inner corner highlight
Apply this only on your inner corner and add a silver or beige or cream colour shadow over it and it will instantly make your eyes appear larger(It is a fool proof trick for all those girls having smaller eyes or hooded eyes.)

3.As A Browbone Highlight

Although using a silver highlight seems so harsh to me but whenever i go for something very dramatic on my eyes sometimes i do apply this as my highlight and again i coat that up with a cream coloured shadow!

4.On Your Cupids Bow

It might sounds crazy to you guys but you can also use it to highlight your cupids bow and then just blend that very lightly because you dont want a line just above your lip because that will look so weird instead of highlighting that area.Because this pencil isn't that pigmented and the sparkle is so subtle so it works well.
If You have a dark skin so this might not suit for you because silver often look ashy on them!


I hope i have included everything we can do with this pencil.Oh wait!!

I forgot to tell you the very basic work :p use it as an eyeko for your waterline but unfortunately this pencil is not waterproof :( so you have to again set it with a powder or may be just an eyeshadow of the same colour! But ain't Nobody has that much time to spend just on a eyeliner!! so go for something else :p but i personally don't like silver on my waterline and even as an eyeliner too i feel like its so harsh but if that works for you and you like it and then you can give it a go!!

As i said i don't recommend this because its just an ok pencil but those who have this and want to use it anyway can follow the tricks i have shown you above and hope this was helpful for you all(I really don't have any idea why did i write this post lol) but anyway :D follow me on my social networks i am leaving a link down below and i will definitely see you soon :*
