The Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick is designed for high performance and versatile use. Its creamy texture ensures a smooth, tug-free application, making it simple to create various eye looks. For best results, work on one eye at a time, as the product sets quickly to its long-wearing finish.
Application Techniques:
As a Primer: Swipe a thin layer across your entire eyelid and blend gently with your finger or a brush. This creates a smooth base for other shadows or enhances the stick's own color.
As an Eyeliner: Use the tip of the stick to draw a line along your upper or lower lash line. For a softer look, smudge immediately with a small brush or fingertip.
For Defining: Apply the stick to your crease or outer corner of the eye. Blend quickly with a brush to create depth and contour.
For Highlighting: Apply 'Moonstone' to the inner corner of your eye, under the brow bone, or lightly on the center of your lid for a brightening effect.
All-Over Shadow: Swipe directly onto the eyelid and blend out with a finger or brush before the product sets.
Experiment with layering different shades or blending 'Moonstone' with powder shadows for a customized look. Its long-wear formula makes it ideal for events where you need your makeup to last without touch-ups.
Setup: No special setup is required. Simply uncap and apply directly to your eyelids. For first-time use, you may want to gently warm the tip on the back of your hand if it feels stiff, though its creamy nature usually prevents this.
Compatibility: This shadow stick is designed to "complement all skin tones, eye shapes, and looks." Its buildable formula allows it to work well with other powder or cream eyeshadows. For removal, it is compatible with most standard makeup removers, though an oil-based remover is recommended for its long-wear properties.
Care: To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your shadow stick:
Always recap firmly after each use to prevent the product from drying out.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
If it's a twist-up stick, avoid twisting out too much product at once to prevent breakage. If it requires sharpening, use a cosmetic sharpener designed for larger pencils. (Info needed: specific sharpening mechanism is not provided).
Avoid sharing your shadow stick to maintain hygiene.
