A Makeup Minimalist's Guide to About-Face Products

I was excited to try the Shadowstick ($14) in the shade 2002, a shimmery icy blue that fed my nostalgia. I'm already a fan of shadow sticks, and I love that this one is super easy to blend. It takes me less than a minute to get my desired shadow look simply by using my fingers to blend and smudge — and then it just stays put. Furthermore, the range of colors is quite satisfactory as it goes from your basic neutrals to more eccentric hues such as Acidic, which is a pearly chartreuse, or Chaos Theory, a pearly yellow.
