Green, Gold

Pros:
1. They are vivid and smooth as per their name…they glide on easily and no need to tug or pull skin to use this.
2. The colors are pretty..and there is a white too..which is not available in many brands..white pencils help open up eyes..
3. They are quite economical at Rs.199/-
4. They are to be sharpened..so hygienic..
5. I use the gold color in my inner corners of eyes to make them appear bigger and brighten up eyes.
6. These do not smudge and stay on for a long time. 
Cons:
1. These are shimmery..and the shimmer does show up around the eyes..so these are good for ocassions..but I prefer matte ones for daily use.. 
2. These do not claim to be opthamologically tested and waterline safe.
3. No names on the pencils…though there are colored tips at the bottom..but in case we talk about green..there are 3 greens in this range..and its difficult to identify which.
4. These are very creamy and tend to break if not handled carefully..I have to be conscious closing the cap.
