24 pcs Nabi Eyeliner and Eyebrow pencils

So far, I'm impressed with my decision to purchase the Nabi High Quality liners. They seem well made and provide a tremendous selection. I had read in somebody reviews that some people were unhappy, it seemed to them colors were repeated. I don't think so. My set did not come with any color duplicates. It does have several different browns, I think there are 4 different greens and at least 2-3 different variations of black. For me, this is a huge bonus and not a negative at all. It allows for more detailed lining, a darker brown on the top lid and a softer more subtle brown on the lower. These liners can also be used as lip liners when I wear green, blue or black lipstick so having a variety of color options scores extra points from me! The set does not come with it's own sharpener, may want to make certain you have one. The actual pencil length is a bit shorter than I had anticipated, it may have been mentioned in the product description and I overlooked it and it's not detrimental, I just thought it worth mentioning. These pencils are 5.5 inches long where my other pencils are 6.5 inches long. Still a great value for 24 pencil liners at a very reasonable price. I'll try to answer any questions anyone might have, just let me know.

I came across these liners a while ago and was very hesitant to purchase them due to prior unfortunate experiences with seemingly affordable makeup. I was more than thrilled to discover that this product is worth every penny I spent on it and then some! The pencils are delightfully smooth and pigmented and for someone that is slowly working on their makeup skills that ease of use is a must! I am of a darker complexion and the fact that these show up on my skin tone so flawlessly is everything! I will include a photo with the swatches that I did on the back of my hand so that you can take a look at the color pay off. There is also a link to a quick video review that I did on this product.

These are super easy to use, I get a perfect sharp wing every time. The colors are pretty, and there’s a lot of colors to play with, and the colors don’t melt off your face if you’re sweating. They’re not super pigmented though. They’re all lighter than they look, like the white and super light colors barely show up, and the black is lighter than it should be. The lighter colors are best without any other eye makeup on, just to define your eye or used as makeshift light eyeshadow since they blend good. The colors also wipe off fairly easily, though you won’t sweat it off unless you’re sweating pretty hard, if you wipe somewhat hard it’ll come right off. I think they’re a great buy if you’re not quite sure about colored eyeliner and want to play with a lot of colors for cheap, or if you’re only gonna use the darker colors.

I love these eye liners, not only is there a wide variety to choose from but each is easy to do my lids with. If you want to shape your eye brows these are nice to outline a shape you want before you pluck or shave. I usually use a small nose hair trimmer around the lines I've made with this stuff and it's great. Not only that but there are so many looks you can create with these sticks. I don't know about longevity because I spray my makeup all down after I put it on but it's some nice makeup.

I love these liners! Do yourself a favor and invest a few bucks in a GOOD sharpener. I choose the NYX one because they are Cruelty Free--and these liners work like a dream! I had a set of PF drugstore liners that spent the day melting into my fine lines. THESE DO NOT BUDGE! At all. I have enough colors to last me for years and years and years. I adore the neon green shade and the bright teal/blue shade. The purple is gorgeous as well--all colors I have struggled to find from other Cruelty Free brands with all day quality. I truly thought I was rolling the dice on such a low cost product, but I am so glad I did. My first priority is always Cruelty Free status in cosmetics, so my choices are significantly smaller than they were decades ago before I cared. These liners have replaced all other brands in my collection, they just apply so well--WHEN THEY ARE SHARPENED! A dull pencil is useless, but use a good sharpener and you can make super exact fine lines. Nothing stays in my waterline for long, but I have zero complaints about cat eyes feathering out with these guys. Honestly totally worth every cent plus a bunch more. I have no idea why they are priced so low, because I would pay more. I have 24 eyeliners now--so I won't be looking to repurchase for years. If they ever come out with metallic shades I would jump on that!

The pros of this is that it is highly pigmented and looks beautiful when swatched. The cons are that unfortunately the pigment doesn't pay off as well when applied to the water line, lids etc. I would not wear this on a warm day or if my skin was more oily than usual. I would not recommend this for those with oily skin, but I would reccomend it for people who are just learning how to use eyeliner. This is perfect too if you are wanting a light color to outline winged eyeliner and want to trace it in with black to make it more dramatic.

I was really surprised how many awesome colors I received. Most of the swatches are just 1 swipe. There's a lot of neutrals with some fun colors. I didn't get any duplicates, just some colors that look very similar (light brown, medium brown... charcoal, charcoal grey). I did let them sit on my arm for a minute or so and they did seem to smudge a little. I usually use eyeshadow primer so I'm not as worried about that on my eyes. Also in the photos, that is just arm hair on swatches, not feathering. Can't beat the price for all the cool colors I'll use.
