Battle of the Brands: Nude Pencil (Rimmel Scandal Eyes vs NYX Wonder Pencil)

If you have watched the battle, then its no secret that the NYX Wonder Pencil in Dark won me over. This pencil is matte in finish, looks natural in person (a la the just had your eyebrows waxed look) and perfectly named Wonder Pencil. This pencil gives me great eyebrow highlight (IMO) and is very multi-functional.

Please keep in mind though in this battle its all about preference. I prefer more of a natural finish, while the Rimmel Scandal Eyes Khol pencil is a little too highlighted for everyday work wear for my skin tone (but can be easily defused with a skin toned eyeshadow).

If you perfer a creamy pencil thats universal with a touch of glamour then Rimmel Scandal Eyes is your new eye BFF. The Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Khol eyeliner in Nude, has a texture similar to say a MAC studio finish or cream concealer.
