I can line my lips like a pro and apply false eyelashes at home (it’s a skill I worked long and hard at), but I’ve never really been able to figure out the eyeshadow application of it all. I have hooded lids, which means very limited space, and whenever I attempt a four-colored eye makeup look complete with a base, cut crease, outer corner definition, and center pop, it looks…horrible. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m a one-color girl. I need to swipe-and-go without giving too much thought to the skill. I have a few pots that I like (although my long nails don’t like them back), but my current favorite is actually an eyeshadow stick.
Anastasia Beverly Hills just dropped an extensive collection of Glidr Sticks, priced at $34 a pop. I got my hands on some sneaky samples ahead of launch and have putting the 25 matte, metallic, and shimmer shades to the test. (Well, I don’t think I’ll ever be a blue eyeshadow girl, but I’ve tried the rest of ‘em.) They’ve officially infiltrated my makeup bag, and I find myself reaching for them over any of my other palettes or pots. And, not to brag, but everyone keeps asking me how I do my eyeshadow.
