I love eyeshadow sticks, and have tried many different brands. These are really convenient for traveling or just quick morning makeup, since you can just apply, blend with your finger and go. This formula is almost there, but not perfect. I purchased 3 colors, 2 glitters and one satin. I must say I prefer the satin finish pencil most. The glitters are kind of rough and chunky, not what I expected from this brand. They are still pretty, but do have some fallouts and the glitter just isn't as refined as I usually like. All of them were a little difficult to blend and took a bit more force to blend with my fingers (the glitters especially), so if you have sensitive eyes, be careful. They lasted pretty well with primer, but did crease a little bit by the 6 hour mark. I do prefer that the top of these pencils is a twist off cap, this is much better to preserve the cream shadow. I wish all companies did this packaging. Pretty good product.
