I visited Sephora some days back after a long time and I wanted to feel really good but I didn’t. Their oil blotting sheets have gone from being for Rs.400 to Rs.545! And most of the products and their testers were out of stock. And I shopped for more than Rs.3000 and when I asked for samples, they said they give it now only if you shop from brands like Clinique, Dior or MUFE. And, I was like “So you don’t consider your brand as good as theirs?” Duh! On another note, their SAs were very polite and helpful. Like always!
Anyhow, read on further to know how I feel about its jumbo eye pencil.

My experience with Sephora crayon Jumbo 12hr “16, Glitter black”:
I had been searching for gorgeous Black eyeliner with silver glitter over it and my search ended with this. Sephora crayon Jumbo eye pencil is a sharpenable pencil that can be applied as eyeliner or even eyeshadow. It has a smooth texture and there’s no dragging while applying it. I need 2 swipes and I’m done. It sets to a smudge proof finish on my super oily eyelids and doesn’t transfers to my upper eyelids even after 10 hours. It does not budge even from my water eye corners. I have used it under a black kohl base all over my eye lids too. I wore it for around 6 hours and I could see minimal creasing after those long hours. It is water-resistant too! The only challenge is blending it because it sets really fast.
After their contour eye pencils (Review HERE, HERE and HERE), I am super impressed with these too! I will be definitely getting them in more shades. I just wish they were priced lower. When I first went to Sephora, they were for Rs.765 and now they are for Rs.995. Insane price hike!
Needless to say, I’ll experience heart break every time I sharpen it! But still loving it! 😀
Price: Rs.996

The shade is soo pretty but the price is too steep.. I would not personally go for it.. Would rather choose MAC since it has the same price range
