I'm rating this product a 4 because while it doesn't really do what it was made to very well, it is a great product that I find indispensable for dark eye looks. If I didn't use it so much, I would...

Although I like this pencil I would not buy it again. The best way to use this product is to wear it under an eyeshadow, and over an eyeshadow primer otherwise it creases like crazy, no joke. This...

I tried using this as like an eyeliner/ shadow but it smeared so badly. I ended up using it as a shadow base instead. Worked well for that purpose

I wanted to try Black Bean after numerous bloggers suggested it as a black base for eyeshadow. Now, this is a cream product, and as far as it goes for me, it will crease. That's not the main...

I wish I could love the jumbo pencils, but I can’t. These things crease on me so bad! I’ve tried them over multiple primers and I’ve always used them as bases for regular eye shadows, but they...

I use this everyday, but only after I melted it into a pot form. It's so much more versatile that way. I use it for my cream liner, as well as a base for shadows.

Total fail for me. Way too creamy. I thought it would make a great base for a dark smokey eye but it just made my eyeshadow smear and crease everywhere. Its also very hard to blend compared to some...

Revamping my previous review. Now that I've become more experienced as a makeup user, I can say this product is pretty good. I still wouldn't use this alone without anything on top... But it's good...

A great base that doesn't crease (when applied as a thin layer) and darkens purples, blues, greens and black eyeshadows when placed on top. A must have for smokey eyes! Super cheap, easily...
