My Thoughts: The NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils are a staple in my collection. I own almost all the colors. I primarily use these as an eyeshadow base to make eyeshadows more vibrant or even alter their color slightly. These will crease if you wear them alone but I do not have any issues with creasing when worn over a primer. I wish you did not have to sharpen them and they were in a twist up type of packaging but they are not too hard to sharpen.
