I know this is OLD news at this point but I love a cream eyeshadow stick like nobody’s business. It’s so easy and leaves a really dimensional finish on the eye with almost no effort!
For the past few months I’ve been using NudeStix in Burnish or Nudity, both are absolutely beautiful and don’t crease. I’ve been asked about a drugstore version and honestly couldn’t find a stick that wasn’t pure glitter for awhile. There are a few options for cream eyeshadow in pots, but very few sticks.
I finally found Maybelline Color Tattoo concentrated crayons and they are great for the $7.00 price tag. The color payoff is beautiful, they do NOT budge, and all you need to do is draw it on and blend it out with your finger or a brush.
Easy, peasy.
I’m wearing Bronze Truffle in these photos, but also picked up Barely Beige while I was shopping. It’s a lighter shade that would look gorgeous as a base or alone on the eye.
So, if you have been looking for a cheaper alternative for an eyeshadow stick, definitely try these. There are a few other colors, but these two are the more neutral, easy-to-wear shades I found from the range!
