PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- "Although a cream shadow fan, I normally don't go for dark colors. The Sephora MUA used this on me though and I loved it so much that I bought it in the shade Aigle Noir. It's a very unique color- in some lighting it looks dark green, in others it looks like a black with bronze running through. He showed me how setting it with different colored eye shadow changes the effect. I've used it with plum, green, and blue eye shadow over it and it works beautifully as a base, holding my eye shadows in place all day. It does blend out well but it dries quickly so you have to work fast to blend otherwise you'll get patches. If you want to make a unique smoky eye, try using Aigle Noir as a base." in 15 reviews

I love these shadow sticks. They are beautiful on their own or as the base for a more smokey look. They are long wearing and relatively crease proof! I wish they had some neutral shades with no shimmer!
The best product for everyday makeup! So easy to use and the lighter pink and gold colors are perfect to make your eyes brighter but still a great daytime look. No brush needed! I always throw this in my purse for a night out!

This is my daily eyeshadow base. It lasts a long time on the eye and the stick hasn't dried out in the year that I've had it (shh). It's a pretty neutral on its own, but it's also good for layering color on top of. A creamy, easy to use shadow.

Love this eyeshadow stick! I love how easily the shadow comes off the stick, it’s really great for when I’m in a rush and just need to quickly toss something on, or as a base for a more pieced together look. The gold has such a nice shimmer that would look good with any eye color!
Love these for clients who are just getting in to shadow but don't want a whole lot of hassle. These blend out easily with just a finger and if you use one of the more neutral shades you could use it alone for a quick pop to the eyes

Got this as a birthday gift and holy moly I love it it's so blendable and nice! Pricy so probably wouldn't buy again but I love it for a gift! It's super nice and would reccomend if you can afford that price
Compre el tono Metallic Blue y quedé encantada, es pigmentado, de fácil aplicación, lo consegui en promoción a un precio accesible, y para maquillajes coloridos es perfecto.
This is a time saver for me for when I’m on the go and have to get my makeup done in a rush. Best thing glides on easily, stays put all day, and easy to blend if you are looking to blend it.
Q & A
Has anyone ever had a sensitive skin problem with this?
How is the staying power? Is there creasing? Do you have to set with a powder shadow?
Is there good color payoff?
Can this be worn alone without applying a shadow or will it look crazy?
How is the pigmentation? Does it last all day? And is there any creasing?
