Davis Eye Jumbo pencil 09 - Review & swatch

Hola girls ! how are you all ? well I guess being in such a hectic routine lets me make appearance on weekends only, though I want to right more ! Any way straight to the post . Today I am reviewing Davis Eye jumbo pencil in shade 09. Lets begin !

The Product:

This comes as a sturdy double ended pencil with two different shades at both ends. The colors are glitttery and glide on easily . Two different colors in the same pencil that compliment each other & can be used to create a love eye look with just one pencil ! lets have a look at this lovely now :)

My Experience:

I got my eyes on this pencil for a long time in a local retail shop so as soon as I had to get something from there I grabbed it along. ( this just reduces the GUILT of breaking your vow of NO MORE COSMETICS :P) . It is a lovely dual ended pencil that offers quite a large range to select from . I personally like multi purpose pencils that either offer use as lip and eye pencil or offer two colors together. This is a  lovely dull gold and a lime green color. I got this because I was hooked to the green colour. The colour pay off is very good. I use it to highlight my lower lash line and it give a subtle shine and shade that just makes your eyes stand out. Both colors have a bit of glitter in them that is a little chunky . Those with sensitive eyes might not like the sensation if it gets into eye. It stays all day long provided I don't rub or wash my eyes. Overall, I am in love with this pencil and yes I am going to buy some more too ! 



The swatches:


As you can see, these are exactly the same shades as shown on the pencil. These are smooth and glide on easily. I haven't tried yet but putting then on over eyeshadow primer , these can be used as eye shadows too. I just got this idea , will try it and let you guys know :)
You can see the glitter specks in the swatches. These are neither big chunky ones nor very fine. I personally have no problem with them at all :)

I Like :

  • Two colours in one pencil makes it travel friendly 
  • Beautiful shades
  • Can be worn on lower lash line with no fading
  • Can be used over whole lid as eye shadow
  • Long lasting ( 5-6 hours)
  • Easily available
  • Affordable

I Don't Like:

  • Glitter might irritate sensitive eyes
  • Not water proof

My Rating:

I give a 3/5 for the glitter and not being water proof.

Where to buy ?

You can get this from local cosmetics shop ( like me ) or you can order it online from Beauty Tips, on facebook. She has almost all the shades :)

Will I buy again ?

YES.

Stay blessed
xoxo
