NYX eye pencil

Pencil it on

You could spend 20 minutes perfecting a cat eye and applying eyeshadow, or you could opt for an ultra fast, one-step, show-stopping look. If you’re all about speed, you need a chunky eye pencil. “An eye pencil can define your eye shape, create a sultry smoky eye, and intensify your eye color,” says Turnbow.

Another great thing about ultra-chunky liners? Because they are so thick, they naturally smudge, so no extra step to worry about. And that’s not the only benefit to using an eye pencil on your lids. Unlike glittery eyeshadow that eventually ends up on your cheeks, many eye pencils don’t flake, says Turnbow. She loves NYX Cosmetics Jumbo Eye Pencil, $4.50.
