formula overview
$8.00/0.048oz. – $166.67 per ounce
The formula is described as “ulta-pigmented” and “long-wearing,” which is classified as “shadow, base, [or] as a liner.” At the opposite end is a built-in sharpener.
The updated twist-stick eyeshadow formula is creamier, more pigmented, and more consistent throughout than the original Color Stix, which performed everywhere. The only problem I had with the Shadow Stix was that they didn’t last me long; They tended to fade between six and seven hours and some were mostly gone after nine hours. They wore better with foundation underneath or when set with powder (i.e. used as a base).
They were creamy and comfortable to work on the lid, and had enough give and blendability to work well with fingertips or a brush to blend the edges onto the skin. I felt it was incredibly easy to buff and stipple the edges for a consistent lid color, which was nice considering about half the palette was various neutrals.
