MAC lip liners (the wood ones) are good quality and last almost forever. some online article said NYX pencils are comparable. anyone have experience with them?
 
I have used mostly MAC cremestick liners over the wood ones and I haven't used them in a long time, so I can't attest to how NYX compares. However, I've watched several YouTubers rave about NYX lip pencils. They say they hold up against and often prefer them over high end. I was influenced in buying one which I haven't used yet.

FYI,
NYX have the best online sales.
The quality is ok but the pencils have a habit to get broken before it is all used up.
I don't recall ever having a pencil break. are you talking about the retractable ones and the product inside breaking off? or the actual pencil breaking?
 
The nyx pencils, the ones you sharpen, are fantastic & honestly are no different than Mac ones. I’ve had nyx pencils last me months & they stay on all day sometimes I don’t need to touch up at all.

good to know...I have had mac wooden pencils last for years. I recently repurchased half-red and I have a few others that are sharpened down to a very small size but still there.
 
I have both MAC and NYXand there's very little difference. If I find a color from NYX that's a dupe for MAC Dervish I won't be purchasing any more MAC.

the next pencil I'll need will be a dupe for a discontinued estee lauder pencil.....I'll go to Ulta and hope they have testers for the NYX pencils. they did have testers for NYX liquid lipstick (unlike all the DS brands)
