I loved the colour of this pencil. It is medium brown - not too light not too dark. I loved how creamy it was. It spread easily without tugging. My problem with it is that it doesn't last at all. Even when I use the little smudge sponge at the end, instead of smudging the line and smoking it out, it actually ends up wiping off the line....Even without smudging the line just fades thoughout the day.
