    I love the look of horse radish, am thinking of buying some of the jumbo pencils on eBay!

    Hi InspirationBeauty, I have to admit I hardly use those jumbo pencils! When I do it's usually as a base. :-)

    I've heard that they're mainly used as bases. Since Nyx is not really available in my country, I only have three items from the brand, 2 eyeshadows and a lipliner. Which other products would you recommend for me to build my collection?

    I love the single eyeshadows more than anything. The trios are good, but the quality is better in the singles. So many colours!

    I also love the round lipsticks, however, I know a lot of people don't. They're one of those love them or hate them kind of things. They don't have a ton of staying power, but no lipstick ever does on me, so that's not a factor when I'm buying lipsticks. Some people also find them drying, but I don't have that issue.

    The Mega Shine lip glosses are also excellent.

    The things I don't much like are the eye base (I use it for swatching, but I find it creases on my eyes after an hour or two) and the round lip gloss, which has a flimsy sponge applicator that isn't "squishy" enough, in my opinion.

    Thanks for that reply, very helpful! The eyeshadows I have are Purple and Lanikai, they are singles and I love them! I was thinking of buying a few more from Cherry Culture, and maybe the loose pearl eyeshadows too.

    I haven't tried the loose eyeshadows - I know some people find the packaging annoying. If you get any, let me know what they're like!
