Will this sharpen eye makeup pencils that are 1/2 inch in diameter?

Yes it will and quite well if it will sharpen color pencils it will sharpen anything it is very sharp sharpest

Sorry, no idea about the make up pencil, but it has a big sharpener for big pencils maybe it was for 1/2 pencil because I only use the small sharpener and it was sharp.

The bigger hole diameter is 1/16th shy of ½ inch. I'm not sure if it would work.

The pencil holder itself is less than 3/8 of an inch in diameter. The brown powder that comes from the pencil does not come to a point. It's a flatter surface about 1/8 of an inch wide.

It depends on how thick the pencil is, but the sharpener is designed for standard pencils and I don't believe it would sharpen an extra-thick pencil.

Probably not. These fit the standard #2 pencil - not the "fat" pencils used for younger children.

No, I don't believe 1/2" will fit into the cylinder. It's made for regular sized pencils.

I am not sure how wide your knife is. However, if it will fit in the sharpener I guarantee it will do the job.

I use the yellow triconderoga pencils without issue. I'm not sure their diameter.

No, probably not. It is an excellent product for sharpening standard size pencils, but I think you'll need to find something else for sharpening thick pencils.

I don't believe so. Besides, it puts a very sharp point on a pencil; imaginably too sharp for cosmetic pencils.

I don't think it will. My sharpener doesn't even sharpen the regular pencils. It's back in the box, my students refused to use it (was used less than a month and was not abused I guess I should throw it away but it looks good and Spent a lot of money on it).

Hi Marsha! I have a small pencil sharpener and a large one. I got the large sharpener out of my local beauty supply store, it works just fine. I did wait until the wax was barely there.

No, You would have to purchase a special type of sharpener. Most people also use a knife or blade to sharpen that type of pencil.

Being a man I don't use cosmetic pencils but I think it would do a good job as long as you dull the tip a bit before using. It puts a VERY sharp point on the pencil. If you want very thin lines it would be great just exercise a little caution

Hello Linda. Yes. It work on colored pencils. My pencils are 7.4 mm in diameter.

Yes, this fits regular and large eye pencils. I use it with multiple brands and it works beautifully on all of them.

This is a pretty small knife sharpener. I use it to sharpen orchid shears. I would think you would want a little longer "stone" to sharpen knifes

I think it will. I bought it because I needed a big sharper that would accommodate the NYC Eyebrow Shaper Wax Pencil which is a think pencil. Check out the wax pencil on Amazon and you will see it is as thick as the Queen Lipstick pencil.
