Pros and cons

What we like

  • Argan-oil-enriched cream formula glides on and blends easily
  • Pearly, matte, satin and metallic finishes to choose from
  • Round stick format applies without brushes or mess
  • Crease-resistant, no-transfer formula built for long wear

What may bother

  • One shade per stick, so no palette variety
  • Works best over an eye primer, which is sold separately

Our verdict

77 / 100

Reach for this when the person likes makeup that takes ten seconds: swipe, blend, go. It suits busy adults with a small makeup bag. Do not choose it for someone who loves palettes and layered looks, and pick the finish with care since four exist.

Best forA busy makeup lover who wants eye color in seconds, at home or on the go.
Avoid ifSkip it if she wants a full palette of shades to build elaborate eye looks.
