If you haven’t seen these CVS Exclusive eyeshadow pencils yet, definitely keep an eye out for them. These new Milani Shadow Eyez Eyeshadow Pencils are sure to be a hit.
These are must-haves.
Seriously. See how opaque and pigmented they are in the swatches? That’s how they apply (so effortless!), and that’s how they stay. The lasting power that these eyeshadow pencils have is impeccable. They stay on for HOURS without budging, creasing, or causing any other unsightly eyeshadow mishaps. Milani says they last 12 hours, however I think they have the potential to last longer. They did on me, but I think that just depends on the person. They work amazingly on their own and even make great eyeliners. They also make fabulous colored bases for upping the boldness of your eyeshadows.
I have no complaints at all. Well, one, I suppose. Milani needs to make these in a bajillion more shades. Gold, bright pink, black, yellow, orange, navy…just every color imaginable. Pretty please?
Yeah…I used Brown Deluxe (that beautiful chocolate bronze) before doing pictures for this post. What can I say? I couldn’t resist!

Milani shadows are awful.

I find Milani stuff to be TOO pigmented… I never thought that could be bad but it looks like I’m using melted Crayolas on my face…

No but I tried the new liquid eyeliner pencil. It ran out quick but did not wash off. Which was good in a sense that it wouldn’t run but was hard to wash off. Had to remove with lotion.

Milani doesn’t have good eyeshadows, and by the looks of those, I would never spend a buck on something I know is going to suck. However, yes, I have tried eyeshadow pencils and they’re pretty cool if you know how to use them! I use the ones from Avon, those are awesome<3333

id give it a shot. But, you only used the bronze one once and it wore it down that much? That seems like a lot!

I wonder what the comparison is between these and nyx jumbo eye pencils. I really want the pink one though!

That’s after one use? It couldn’t last very long if that’s the case.
