ColourPop Hey Bestie, Surf Sesh, Quokka, So Into U Shadow Stix Reviews & Swatches

Formula Overview

$8.00/0.04 oz. - $200.00 Per Ounce

The formula is described as "ulta-pigmented" and "long-lasting" that can be used as "a shadow, a base, [or] as a liner." There is a built-in sharpener on the opposite end.

The updated twist-up pencil eyeshadow formula is creamier, more pigmented, and performed more consistently across the board than the original Colour Stix, which were all over the place with performance. The only issue I had with the Shadow Stix is they weren't long-wearing on me; they had a tendency to fade between six and seven hours and some were mostly gone by nine hours. They were better wearing with a primer underneath or if they were set with powder (so used as a base).

They were creamy and comfortable to work with on the lid, and they had enough give and blendability to work well with fingertips or a brush to diffuse the edges of on the skin. I felt like it was incredibly easy to just buff and pat the edges for an all-over lid color, which was nice given about half the range were various neutral tones.
