Sparkles Unlimited - L.A. Colors Jumbo Eye Pencil in Vacation ...

I got it for 250 INR from Dhanu.

L.A. Colors jumbo eye pencils are fat chubby eyeliner pencils like NYX Jumbo Eyeliners. They are super smooth & creamy in texture & can be smudged easily to be used as an eye shadow base. Oily lids will need a primer to set them properly otherwise they will crease badly. Available in 24 shades most of them are shimmery. The shimmers don’t dominate the actual shade but are subtly visible on application. But in case of creasing the shimmer does get distributed all over your lids. On my dry lids these gets settled down quite well without creasing issues though I make sure to use them along with a primer. These stay put for good 6-7 hours on my lids if not disturbed. Can be easily removed with water or just in a single swipe with a wet tissue. They don’t flake or fade if not disturbed. It’s pretty difficult to get a thin line with these eyeliners & being creamy in texture they tend to get finished off really fast.

All together they make up for a good deal for the price. However if you try to buy them online including shipping definitely affects the price.

Shade Vacation:

It’s a highly pigmented dark plummy- purple shade with silver shimmer. The pigmentation is very rich & a single stroke gives a highly vibrant dark purple color to lids. Purple lover will surely love to add this to their stash. I mostly use this as a base while going for a purple eye makeup look which adds a depth to eye shadows & makes the makeup stays for whole day.

It instantly pops up my brown eyes & the vibrancy of shade is such that would show easily on pigmented lids as well. I would highly recommend these eyeliner pencils. There’s a shade for everyone out there.

  • Very smooth & creamy in texture.
  • Dirt cheap.
  • Highly pigmented.
  • Shimmers are not chunky & doesn’t get scattered over lid till the liner stays intact.
  • Can be used as an eyeshadow base.
  • Good staying power if used with a primer.

  • They finish off fast being very creamy.
  • Its highly difficult to get a thin precise line with these.
  • Creases badly on oily lids & one need to use a primer to make them stay longer.
  • Smudge easily if disturbed.

L.A.Colors Jumbo Eye Pencils have soft & creamy texture which can be smudged easily. They are best used as eyeshadow base. Without primer creases badly on oily lids & can survive for some time on dry lids. With primer they do stay put for around 6-7 hours. Most of the shades are shimmery. Vacation is a rich dark Plummy- purple shade with silver shimmer which will show up on pigmented lids too with a vibrant color pay off.

How would you wear L.A.Colors Jumbo Eye Pencil in Vacation?
