THE CLAIMS:

This creamy and pigment rich Jumbo Eyeshadow Stick is perfect for creating a natural or smoky eyeshadow look. Infused with nourishing Vitamin E to condition the delicate eye area. The twist up component and smooth glide formula is easy to use for on-the-go beauty. All colors, except Like A Boss, have a shimmer finish.

THE INSPECTION:

These are ok but not great.  They are good if you are in a hurry and just need quick eye makeup.  They don't stay on that long even with primer.  The colors are really pretty though and go on smooth.  The stick twists up from the bottom.  The colors Turkish Coffee and Rock out look the same on.  My favorite color is Little Miss Thing.  It is a dupe for the Urban Decay eyeshadow pencil called "Lit".  They are easy to carry around so you can touch up.

e.l.f. EYESHADOW BRUSH

These cream shadows are great!!  It's one of my favorites right now in the color Dawn. This color would look good on most skin tones and is good for a neutral eye look.  I use the e.l.f. eyeshadow brush to apply this.  It lasts all day but I found that it does crease a little without a primer.  It is a shimmery taupe color and can be used as a base for other eyeshadows or alone.  It looks really good mixed with a little pink cream shadow.  It comes in a cute small square container, and will last a long time and doesn't take up any space in your make up bag.  I love it!

URBAN DECAY 24/7 GLIDE ON SHADOW PENCIL

• 12 SHADES
• WATERPROOF
• $20.00 SEPHORA

THE CLAIMS:

A crease-proof, waterproof shadow pencil.  Big and blendable, this 24/7 shadow pencil keeps going as long as you do.  Our next generation of famous 24/7 pencils can be used as eyeshadow, eyeliner, or both!  They deliver incredible color payout, but feel lightweight.  The new fat shape allows you to cover large areas more quickly.  Use the thin tip as eyeliner, or the side of the tip as a generous swipe of eyeshadow.

THE INSPECTION:

Color:  Sin

I love this shadow pencil!  I have it in Lit, Midnight Cowboy, Sin, and Delinquent. It goes on really smooth if you put it on after moisturizer or primer.  Don't powder prime your lids before this or it will not go on well.  Once it is on, it stays put all day.  It is a great eyeliner as well. I like to use Lit ( a golden bronze) all over the lid for a no make up, natural look, but still looks like you did something.  I also like to use the Midnight Cowboy (beige with silver sparkle) on the inside corners of my eyes, and as a liner around the entire eye for some sparkle.  The color Sin is a really pretty neutral pinky gold color and I like to use it all over the lid for a day look, or you can put a little on top of a different shadow in the center of the lid for extra sparkle.  Delinquent (dark purple with a pinkinsh sparkle) is a gorgeous purple color and really nice as  an eyeliner.  Another way I use the more neutral colors is on the center of my lips after lipstick.  It gives them a pretty sparkle.  The pencils are chunky and cute and are lasting a long time. Be careful not to sharpen them too much or the tip will come off when you run it across your lid.  Keep the product part short on the pencil.  These are really great and I will probably be trying more colors.
