NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Epic Inky Stix Mechanical Cream-Gel Eyeliner — 02 Ember Energy (Matte Warm Brown), Waterproof 24HR Wear

Epic Inky Stix is a mechanical cream-gel eyeliner that clicks up for a single-swipe, waterproof line with up to 24 hours of wear.

This smooth, pigmented pencil from NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP is designed to deliver instant, high-impact color with a slanted tip that creates precise thin or bold lines without a brush. The quick-dry, water-resistant formula resists smudging and flaking while the twist-up design eliminates sharpening; choose from multiple inky shades to build everyday or dramatic looks.

How does the Epic Inky Stix perform on long days or nights out?

The formula is engineered for extended wear, holding its intensity through daily activity and social evenings. It’s quick to set so it won’t transfer during application, and it resists smudging when you need a dependable line.

• Up to 24-hour color retention when applied to clean lids
• Waterproof and quick-dry finish to limit transfer
• Smudge-resistant and formulated to avoid flaking

What kinds of lines and looks can I create with the slanted tip?

The angled tip gives control for both delicate hairlines and dramatic wings in one tool. You can sketch sharp graphic shapes, tightline the lash line, or build a smoked-out edge by layering and blending before it fully sets.

• Precise thin lines for subtle definition
• Broad strokes for bold wings and graphic shapes
• Layerable for soft smokey effects when blended quickly

Is application easy for beginners and pros alike?

Yes — the mechanical twist-up delivery provides consistent product without sharpening hassles, and the creamy gel texture glides with minimal drag. The slanted tip helps guide placement so both novices and experienced artists can achieve clean results fast.

• Twist-up pencil eliminates need for a sharpener
• Creamy, pigmented core minimizes skipping or tugging
• Angled tip supports controlled application for varied techniques

What ethical or makeup-collection benefits does Epic Inky Stix offer?

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP maintains cruelty-free standards across its lineup, and this eyeliner extends that commitment while fitting into a versatile pro kit. With multiple shades available, it’s easy to coordinate with palettes, lip colors, and lashes for a complete look.

• PETA-recognized cruelty-free brand
• Available in a range of 13 inky shades for diverse looks
• Compact, travel-friendly mechanical design

Who is this for? The Epic Inky Stix in 02 Ember Energy (matte warm brown) is ideal for anyone who wants a reliable, pigmented liner without the fuss of brushes or sharpening—makeup beginners who need an easy application, daily wearers who need long-lasting definition, and makeup artists seeking a travel-ready, buildable pencil for warm-toned looks.
