Makeup Eyes - Eye Pencils Benefit
100% would buy this product again - Overall Average Rating 4
Review on: Benefit - High Brow
This is a very pale pink highlighter pencil, to be used right under the arch of the brow to give the optical illusion of a "lift". It goes on very smoothly and the color looks natural.
I also like to use this on my waterline to make me look more awake. It stays on fairly well and looks much better than if you´d use a white-ish color (too fake) 
  


Pros: creamy consistency, lasts long. Gives brows a "lift"
Cons:
Review on: Benefit - Gilded
I adore this eyepencil.  It's just the warmest, soft gold you can imagine.  It's very soft, so it just goes on so gently and creates a nice halo around your eyes.  It's especially flattering on blue eyes.  As a strawberry blond I even use it as an eyebrow pencil sometimes.  I wore this for my wedding and it always makes me happy to wear it again!


Pros: Soft, gorgeous color. Very smooth application.
Cons: Pricey
Review on: Benefit - Bad Gal Liner
I picked up "Bad Gal" liner at Sephora last year when asking the sales assistant to recc. a good black kohl-type liner.  She recc'd this..and I am more than glad she did.
 
For the past year now, this has been my go-to item when I want any kind of a black pencil or dramatic look...But don't get me wrong; this is not only for the dramatic, smokey looks (although it does those superbly), I use this a lot for daytime looks, too.
 
This product comes in a big, chunky pencil.  You *will* need to have a pencil sharpener with an oversized hole for this, but it's a menial investment (and, truth be told, any makeup buff should have one of those anyway).  This product has a creamy, blendable constistency...you can use a smudger to smudge a smokey line to your hearts content!!!
 
I LOVE this pencil...It has lasted me well over a year now, and I am going to buy another when this runs down to a stub.
 
I would tell any gal looking for the perfect black kohl-type liner to buy this...you'll never look back!


Pros: The *BEST* black liner I've eva used
Cons: Only comes in one color..black. But that's ok by me;)
Review on: Benefit - Gilded
I just got this today, and I must say... it is already a favorite of mine.  It is a very nice tangerine gold color highlighter pencil.  I line the inner corners of my eyes, and it totally brightens up my whole look.  I like to line my lower lash line too... even if I am tired, it makes me look so awake.  This was an allure beauty award-winner too.  I'm lovin' it!  It is the best pencil by Benefit by far, and I've tried all of them.


Pros: it totally brightens my eyes, and is perfect for summer!
Cons: a little pricey, but it will last a long time. I think Macy's sells it for $16.00, everywhere else it is $18.00
Review on: Benefit - Eye Bright
Benefit's "Eye Bright" is great for brightening up tired eyes.  I put it on the inner corners of my eyes, on the dark circles under my eyes, and under my browbone.  The only thing is it has to be blended really well to look natural (since it's pink).
 
I tried using this on my waterline, but my white eye pencil works better.


Pros: Brightens up eyes well.
Cons: Can look unnatural if not blended well, $$$
Review on: Benefit - mr. frosty
ok i did not like this at all! i gave it about 4 tries and decided i didnt like it. when i first put it on in my inner lids it came out so chalky looking and was starting to run, same thing with the 2nd,3rd and 4th time, so i gave up!


Pros: none
Cons: very chalky looking
Review on: Benefit - mr. frosty
I really wanted to LOVE this pencil, although it isn't bad, I've seen better. The frost factor in it os okay, I guess I was looking for it to be more opaque. It goes on pretty sheer. I am on the lookout for a chubby white pencil that goes on intensely white with a slight shimmer. This is all shimmer, barely any pigment. It's not a terrible product though. It just depends what you are looking for. I would have just used my shimmer powders if I knew.


Pros: handy to have a shimmer in a pencil formula.
Cons: highly priced. Not enough white, more of just a shimmer product.
