Eye crayon recommendations

Hi I have recently bought 3 eye crayons from a body shop ‘party’...

www.thebodyshop.com/makeup/eye-shadow/eye-colour-stick/p/p002140

I’ve never used eye crayons before but I’m absolutely loving them, because they are just so easy to use...

I use it as an eyeliner then let it ‘dry’ (even though it’s not wet) and it doesn’t smudge, stays put all day. Then I use the same or different colour as an eyeshadow and it smudges and blends brilliantly with my finger while ‘wet’

The only problem is they’re so glittery! So I’m looking to find something similar which is matte if anyone knows a good one please?

It really need it to be easy and quick to use with a couple of swipes or finger rubs.

Going shopping tmrw Smile Thank you!

Beauty pie and Bobbi Brown ( both quite similar)
I bought the BB ones in taupe and bark after watching a tutorial on bryony Blake’s Instagram where she used them And they looked really easy to apply (I’m not usually an eyeshadow fan) and I really like them

NYX have some good cheap ones and I liked the beauty pie ones- some sparklier than others, though I did have one which snapped off so a lot of it was wasted stuck in the tube.
Sephora have great fat crayons which my sister introduced me to, I will buy a couple when in the US next month.

I’ve bought two GOSH ones so far, thanks for the recommendation, they are great!

I can’t believe I’ve only just discovered eye crayons in my 40s, they are so easy to put on!

@BusterGonad I came on to say byterry blackstar! Love the way you can just use a little bit and blend for a subtle look or layer for something more intense.

BusterGonad · 14/03/2020 06:19

UpToon they are defiantly the best I've ever used. I love the subtle shimmer too.

Agree with Nyx ones. I have a pink, a purple, a cocoa brown, the french fry one (gold) etc and a whitish one too.

I also loved the Bobby Brown ones. I had a pinkish one and a mauvey one. Also Mally (QVC) in a bronzey shade.
