I love laying down Laura Mercier caviar shadow sticks as either one and done but most of the time I used 3 different shades and blend. Au Natural in the crease, Strapless over the lid and Cocoa in the outer corner. Blended I get the exact taupe look I’m after. I think it’s somehow working with my skin tone! 😂 edit: forgot to mention that it lasts all day and doesn’t crease, at least not on my lids.

I have two of the REM beauty liquid shadows but I’m not too keen on them. I find they don’t blend as my favorites, and that they have a rubbery/gluey finish I don’t like. But they don’t budge. I’m a little surprised you don’t have Khaki from Laura Mercier! Its probably my favorite shadow stick and that grungey, greenish, dirty bronze color.

Colourpop reformulated their shadow sticks earlier this year - the shimmer shade you have is the new formula but the matte shade that you decluttered was in the old packaging. Thanks for another incredibly helpful and informative video.

The Fenty beauty ones are surprisingly good! I love the Bobbi brown, kvd and Laura mercier. The nyx jumbo sticks are not for oily lids. It always creases.

I love shadow sticks. They're my favorite formula and the only shadow (besides Viseart) I still use. Soooo glad you recognized It Cometics shadow sticks. It's my favorite formula along with Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier.

Absolutely love the KVD shadows, I have every color, they're gorgeous. I'm not a fan of the Armani but do love the Bobbi Brown sticks. I adore your eye-shadow vids, and while being in the industry for a long time, I never tire of cosmetics in general. Thanks for all you do! :)

Same. I adore the KVD ones. But they like discontinued a few shades and aren’t focusing on launching new ones. I’m quite disappointed because I wanted a huge collection 😅

Thank you Amanda for making this video, it is very necessary to know what to buy and what not to buy, I was entertained until the end. Could you make a video of the Korean shadows to buy? Because nothing comes here from the United States. Except Nyx and I bought the jumbo pencils based on your recommendations and I love them. Thank you and a giant hug from Chile 🥰

Great video, you put a lot of time into these and I know this is your greatest love. I really enjoy your perspective on eyeshadows and it has altered my thinking and buying habits. Your camera was too far away from you hand and it got worse halfway thru. We could not see you applying the product and you showed the final look pushing your hands not forward enough and not for long. Thank you I love this type of video though.

i loveeee the old sephora shadow sticks. i would love to see a video on the rem beauty liquid shadows. stila’s pearlina is beautiful and i still love the ones i have, but i hate that some dry up. the sephora liquid shadows lightning and all day are really pretty. i like the one size matte cream shadows a little more than the shimmers. i always pick up a different smashbox cream shadows when they’re on sale and they have awesome shades. the dm color fixes are incredibly beautiful and you get soooo much product, and the range is amazing!!! i’m dyinggg to try the byredo cream shadows!!! i keep forgetting to pick up the kaja liquid shadow and winky lux liquid shadow. the mufe shade i want is always sold out. i’m gonna keep my eye out on the by terry shadow stick. i love the NEW colourpop shadow sticks, and the matte sticks are great also. i’m not a fan of the reformulated nyx jumbo sticks at all. i love the elf shadow sticks and i can’t find the older denim blue shadow sticks and i’ve been looking EVERYWHERE for a replacement, but i do loveeee the newest ones they released. sydney grace makes amazing cream shadows, and my bond and cliff jumping are favorites. i reallllly want to try a couple of the jones road and mob beauty. the amts shadows look pretty. i loveeee moira but their shadow sticks are my least favorite products from them, and i think they need to be reformulated. ulta makes great cream shadows. you should definitely do a “buy this not that” video. the revlon shadow sticks are soooo hit or miss. i have to pick up some products from hard candy. i’m soooo mad that the kiko milano eyeshadow sticks aren’t on ulta anymore. ok, i reallllly need to try beauty pie. this was a great video. i’m looking forward to affordable shadow videos. 🥰🥰🥰

Love these videos and your methodical/precise approach, thanks Amanda! Quick question: do you have any thoughts on a similar video for colour correctors (apologies if you've done this already and I've just missed it!) Whilst I'm an entirely different skin complexion and undertone (medium deep overtone/cool undertone), with severe grey hyperpigmentation/under eyes, I'm sure there's theory and notes that are translatable and I'm curious to see how you approach this specific topic!

Sometimes the shades are not okay and sometimes the formula isn’t right. Are there particular colours or pigments that are more problematic or is colour all personal preferences? Thank you for putting in all this work. Today and everyday your thoughtful and thorough reviews are very much appreciated.

Have you ever tried the Girlactik eyeshadow sticks? I am very interested in how grippy they are. I also find the VB shadow sticks to be more grippy and they stay on my oily eyelids longer than the Bobbi Brown and the Laura Mercier. Would you consider reviewing Girlactik?

I like the R.E.M beauty eyeshadows. I get eczema eyelids and I'm always wary of how things are going to feel or affect the skin there. I prep my lids regardless of what I'm using because of skin issues, so I don't know how they wear on naked skin.

Hi Amanda! Awesome video. Of all the brands you mentioned in this one, I have a few KVD Dazzle Sticks & a few Bobbi Brown shadow sticks. I have a few more from some other brands, but don't own too many cream/liquid shadows. What I've found with the cream/liquid shadows that they'll look amazing upon initial application, but then some of them seem to either dry down a bit dull, or they might dry down & look a bit scaly & not sure what might cause that. Any thoughts? Any input would be great. Thanks!
