This is a decent eyeshadow stick, but it could be better. I definitely prefer the mint green one. I use these as eyeshadow based to apply powdered eyeshadows over. The opaque non-shimmery colors are better for this. I recommend Sweet Creme from the Cookies n Dreams collection. When used as a base, this gives a slight sparkle to your entire look. Just be careful using it. This shimmery one seems much more fragile than the opaque ones, so it breaks much, much easier. I definitely recommend the e.l.f. No-Budge Eyeshadow Sticks. But, this one is not a favorite for me.
