Eyeshadow 101 Cream-to-Powder Waterproof Shadow Stick – Champagne Shimmer – Long-Lasting, Crease-Proof, Medium Golden-Beige Shimmer Cream Eyeshadow with Built-in Smudger

Love! Super easy to use and the color is perfect! A good, all-around everyday color, to use on both upper and lower lids. I get a ton of compliments on my eyes, and it literally takes me minutes to apply. I've been using this product for several years now and I plan on continuing. I love that it doesn't smear/smudge and it lasts all day into the night. Worn with mascara, it gives a nice smokey, soft look. Gives a more natural looking eye than just wearing mascara alone. Last a long time and the price is unbeatable!

The Julep eyeshadow stick is everything it says it is, and then some. The application goes on so smoothly and covers and does not crease. It really does go on as a cream then turns into a powder. A very fine suede powder. Doesn't rub off and lasts for hours. It's very easy to remove. I've used make-up wipes and I've used facial soap and facial cleanser. They all come off easily without robust wiping. I love this product so much that I ordered six more in various shades. It's perfect for my senior skin that still likes to wear make-up. It looks like a professional application. I'm very impressed with the Julep eyeshadow sticks so I'm going to study all they have to offer in their online Amazon store.

I really appreciate that this cream to powder eyeshadow stick is clean and it isn't faint or pale in its application. The color is vibrant and shimmery, which I like and goes on smooth and doesn't crease. I do need to reapply once throughout the day, if I put on makeup in the morning and its going into the late afternoon, but definitely has a longer wear than other natural eyeshadows I have used in the past.

I wanted an eyeshadow stick that would be easy to apply and try.e to the color advertised= vanilla matte. This shadow stick delivered on both. Less is best. By that I mean when applying, use sparingly and BLEND BLEND BLEND. Layering powder over is super easy and lasts all day. It is truly Matte, no shine, no creasing. It will be a go to shadow for me.

This is the perfect color for me. The product itself stays on nicely. It isn't hard to work with at all. You can use the other end and blend, but I use a very small brush and add this right on my eyelash line on the top. Then I gently tap it a few more times across the same area and blend with another brush. Because it is a cream, it blends very well while it's still newly on. Once it sets in, though, you have lost your blend window, which is exactly what I would want from a cream eyeshadow. I then take the small brush again and make a wing line upwards. Use a different color shadow that I tamp into the eyelid, then crease, and on that goes. Then blend it all. I use a shade just lighter than this to use on my watermark, and poof, I have eyelashes. (I have blonde eyelashes. It has taken me decades to get it right.) This product is so valuable to me that I keep three extra on hand at all times. I cannot go without it. The value is perfect for the price. I love this. The only thing that scares me is ..what if they stop making it .. lol. It can be used alone as a shadow by itself, and I have done that. On cocktail night, this whole routine I do for the day goes out the window, and this becomes the star of my eyes. I have always felt like black is just way too harsh for shadow and liner unless you actually have true black hair. I also have this in shimmer and very light for the corners of my eyes and below my eyes. I don't wear anything on my lower eyes other than this brand, in very light. No mascara either. (I also set this cream shadow/liner with either a clear setting powder or a navy of the same color. I found that if I do it helps since I wear all cream everything. If you don't wear cream foundation, you likely won't need to set it in. Sometimes I also use primer to help set it in. That is cocktail night because during the day I don't have patience for primer.)

I'm surprised to see the price has gone up to $18 now on the julep eyeshadow cream to powder pen. In my judgment I do not feel it is worth it. I bought it back when it was only $8 and I thought it was expensive then. If it worked fine then I would pay the $18 but in my evaluation it was very difficult to use properly. I will tell you why. When you begin applying the eyeshadow pen to your eyelids you better do it quickly. For one reason or another it dries very fast and you don't have time to spread it evenly over the whole eyelid and upper eyelid. Once it dries you cannot manipulate it to create a smooth look on your eyelid. It is waterproof so you it makes it even harder to smooth it out properly. That's why I don't use it any longer and wouldn't recommend paying $18 for it.

Best eyeshadow out there. I don’t like doing much makeup or anything that takes too much time, but I can swipe this over my lids and even blend two colors easily to contour a lid lift. This is indeed waterproof. I wear it at the lake and swim with it all day in the sun. That is the best part! Almost requires an oil based makeup remover to come off, but no scrubbing is necessary with a good remover. I’d recommend Clinique Take The Day Off either balm or liquid work great depending on your preference. For reference, I am wearing the color “champagne” in this photo and I believe that color is the best for every day wear as it a subtle yet beautiful share that goes with everything. If you were to only choose one stick to start with, that would be the color I would suggest for any age.

The color is perfect the product is blendable

Not the color I ordered so expensive item of no use and no returns. Really pissed off

Like how it goes on, lasts all day, great color. Instead of using the blending sponge on the stick I used one of my brushes & found it blended great. A number of reviewers noted that it's difficult to remove. I use Micellar Water for all my makeup removal & found it worked quite well on this shadow. Disappointed I can't get some other colors I want or they're very expensive in comparison to the "Stone" color. I looked around on Amazon and found a similar product "Palladio" which from the reviews seems similar to Julep at a much lower price. I'm going to purchase from them & see how their product fairs in comparison.

Easy to apply and stays put all day with no smearing. I use the taupe shimmer. It is a subtle shimmer and suitable for any occasion. I use it everyday and hope it never goes out of stock.

Great natural look color... Stayed on all day... Have bought several times... And will again.
