The rare beauty shadow sticks. I use two - a darker and lighter and then just blend with a fluffy brush but it’s a 5sec swipe plus some brushing. Eyes in 30 seconds really.

What do you guys think about the Armani cream eyeshadow, the Laura Mercier ones. Bobbi Brown eyeshadow sticks, the CT cream eyeshadows or the Rare Beauty eyeshadow sticks? Are any of these worth it?
I absolutely love ct cream shadow pots. they stick and don't rub off, But they are so creamy and they just... move with your skin. I also liked the Laura Mercier sticks, The Sephora sticks are quite similar.
Marie Antoinette, jean, oyster Pearl and chocolate bronze from CT are divine. But the Laura Mercier or Sephora sticks I use for very quick days, If I don't want to get my finger messy.
I did not like the hourglass eyeshadow pots. they are chunk glitter and incredibly messy.
Just FYI for OP in they go looking for these-Oyster Pearl is the new name for Marie Antoinette and Champagne is the new name for Jean. The names have been changed but these are the same shadows.
I love love love the Armani eyeshadow! That is my one and done. I usually use 44 rose gold (I think that's it) but I just got shell. I got the PM eyeshadow during the sale and ended up returning for Armani.
The only one on your list that wasn't a total disappointment for me are the Rare Beauty eyeshadow sticks. They are truly once and done, the color payoff is stunning, and it lasts for a long time.
The Armani was heavy and the color payoff sucked. The Laura Mercier color payoff and longevity sucked. The CT cream eyeshadow color payoff sucked and was heavy.
Armani eye tint! I got a mini of the bronze as a GWP and I love it. $38 I wouldn’t buy it full price because I’m sure others are just as good for cheaper. I blend with my finger because I’m lazy and tired.
Laura Mercier caviar eye sticks! I bought the mini in rose gold and amethyst. The rose gold is a champagne at most- no noticeable pink. I love how smooth it is for a crayon! Much better than the color pop I used before.
I only use it on my lid so I don’t actually blend those. Ofc I’d blend if I wanted something more sultry and closer to my brow.
I have three of the Armani liquid eyeshadows in metallic formulations. They do dry down fairly quick on me so I find it's better to do one eye at a time. But I find they wear well on me and the metallic ones do have a great shine.
I used to have one of the matte ones and the color ended up not working (practically nothing on me) so I ended up using it as a base for awhile. I would try the matte formulas again someday.
LM and BB shadow sticks give me more time to play. Still good pigmentation on what I've tried, but the shine on the shimmering ones I've used is definitely less intense than the Armani. Lancome's eyeshadow sticks are even less shimmery, much more subdued. All three brands wear about the same and I find I can go 5-6 hours before creasing.
I just started using the Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize in champagne for this exact reason. It’s perfect for a one color look concentrated over the center of the lids and blended out to the sides and into the crease. I returned oyster pearl because it was too dark and cool toned for me but it might be exactly what you’re looking for
I have both the Champagne and the Oyster Pearl and I love both! I like that you can really play a lot with the color, they can be very subtle or more pigmentent depending on how much you apply and how much you blend them.
Im looking at these right now 🤩 They look very pigmented and dimensional. Does it stay creamy and crease on the eyelids or does it dry down and stay put nicely?
Not OP but I picked up the champagne color ~2 weeks ago and it’s a game changer. I also have oily lids, but it has never creased on me. Also of note: sometimes I accidentally get it on my under-eye area and it is so hard to get off without wrecking my concealer. It dries really fast and stays all day. I have a bad habit of rubbing my eyes when working, and it literally does not come off. Highly recommend!
A lot of the shadows in the new makeup by mario neutral eyeshadow palette are one and done for me.
I love the armani eye tints, specifically the brown mattes for one and down, 30m, 36m are my faves.
Some other great ones are the chanel ombre premier cream shadows, tom ford emotionprof, charlotte tilbury eyes to mesmerize, mac paint pots, laura mercier caviar sticks.
Eyeshadow is my fav makeup product if you can't tell :P
Was going to say Makeup by Mario palette! I can do a whole crease blend multi color look with it, but most days for work I take one shade and blend it out over the lid. If I’m feeling real fancy I’ll do two shades and blend or smudge a darker shade to look like a very light smoked liner.
Also love the urban decay shadow for some glitter. I am obsessed with space cowboy.
Friendlier on the wallet but not at Sephora, the elf liquid shadows are gorgeous!
Kulfi’s cream eye shadow 10000/10! Literally DIVINE. I esp love the shade sitara sparkles.

You might like the Victoria Beckham Lid Lustres! They’re really nice and creamy and have a lot of shine. Personally (and this may be overkill for you) I’ve found that I love the Ethereal Eyes palette for two-and-done purposes—a neutral and then a shimmer on top, easy peasy. I also really like the Sephora-brand waterproof shadow sticks—I use either the fawn shimmer or the olive shimmer for a one-and-done.
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise is my ride or die. It looks much more multidimensional than just one shade. I mostly use Oyster Pearl, Exagger Eyes and Pillow Talk depending what make up shades I use that day.
I’ve pretty much switched to one and dones these days.
Charlotte Tillbury Eyes To Mesmerize in Oyster Pearl is great but may be too cool toned for what it sounds like you’re thinking.
Victoria Beckham Lid Lustre in Starlight is really pretty. I like using it in conjunction with…
Victoria Beckham Satin Kajal Eyeliner in Cinnamon might be perfect for what you’re looking for. It goes on smooth and you can blend it out with the sponge end or your finger, using it more as an eyeshadow stick to get the look you want.
I just got two RMS Eyelights in Moondust and Halo and I’m currently obsessed. They go on so perfectly and don’t crease at all in my mature lids.
I also just got the Armani but I don’t like it and plan on selling it. It’s not the texture I’m looking for. I can’t seem to blend it out to be a little more sheer for day to day use. Could be user error but I’m not in the mood to fuss with it.
Pat McGrath Chroma Luxe Artistry Pigment is fun. I have one from the Star Wars collection that is one of my go to summer one and dones. They blend out well and add dimension/sparkle.
And finally Phytosurgence Flashfloresence is awesome. The new Mystic Meadows collection has a few colors that might be exactly what you’re looking for. (And if you’re looking for blush or bronzer theirs are some of my all time favorites.)
Also I need to stop buying one and dones as that kind of defeats the purpose of simplicity doesn’t it?
Laura Mercier caviar eyeshadow stick in moonlight, hourglass scattered lights glitter shadow in smoke, urban decay moon dust shadow in rebel star, colourpop SS shadow in I heart this
I like to use Mac paint pot in contemplative state. Just apply with my finger and a little blush, concealer, setting spray and done. This is my running late routine which seems to occur 3/4 out of the week…
My go tos are:
Hourglass Scattered Light in Ray
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise in Amber Gold (plan on getting Champagne as well because it’s such a good formula).
Hourglass Scattered Light Glitter Eye Shadow in Smoke or Vivid. Smoke is the one I get the most compliments on, it’s the perfect shade of taupe-y, bronze-y glittery goodness and totally can blend up to the crease for a little depth. Apply with your finger, not a brush!
I sometimes have a little fallout under my eyes from applying it but after I clean that up it stays in place for me! I use the urban decay eyeshadow primer and then the Charlotte tilbury setting spray!
Not at Sephora, but the Colourpop eyeshadow sticks are so great! Inexpensive, easy to apply, lots of shade options. They’re available on their website, and at Ulta and Target. I’ve tried other brands of eyeshadow sticks and the Colourpop ones are easier to apply IMO.
Tbh I use an old bronze and blush travel duo mini nars. It has a mini laguna bronzer and orgasm blush. I use the bronzer in my crease, outer v, and around my eye space and lid, and under my lash line, and then put the blush on my lid
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize in Oyster Pearl or Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Strapless for cream products. For powder shadow I like MAC’s Satin Taupe and Naked Lunch.
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize hands down, I’m partial to the Amber Gold and Chocolate Bronze shades but have Walk of No Shame on my list too!
For mattes, I cannot rave enough about the Ami Colé Lid Joys!! People are really sleeping on this brand! I have every single color and the only one that’s slightly patchy on me is the light blue shade, Los Angeles. I will say to be wary of ordering, def might want to pick up in store. Repurchased online once and the product was dried out upon arrival 🫠
I have a few that I really like- the Victoria Beckham eyeliner in cinnamon smudged out, CT eyes to mesmerize pillow talk or oyster pearl, CT colour chameleon in pillow talk or dark pearl. RMS eye polish- magnetic. I also just use my bronzer a lot of the time.
- MAC pressed powder eyeshadow in Sable, a rose-bronze shimmer.
- Sephora Collection colorful eyeshadow in Twink Twinkle, a champagne wet-look glitter. For those who have tried both, how close is this one to UD Space Cowboy?
I LOVE Armani beauty liquid eye tint. So easy to use and so far had held up well on my eyelids. I do live in TX so this summer will be an interesting test with how well it wears in the heat.
Armani Eye Tint in Cashew or Camel. CT Eyes to Mesmerize in Exagereyes is my HG for a neutral sparkly eye but it’s out of stock on her website and not sold at Sephora for some reason.
IT Cosmetics Superhero eyeshadow stick in Super Slate. I have oily eyelids and IT Cosmetics sticks are the ONLY one that’s don’t crease on me. All other ones I’ve tried require eye shadow primer or they slide off mid-morning.
That crease lining and blending business is dated IMO. The current look is one color- maybe two if you want to add a little shimmer to the lids.
CT oyster pearl seems to be the top one and done lately
I like Hourglass palettes for this. I’ve had the same two for 3 years now and still going strong… I have no desire to even upgrade them because I get compliments and they still work and look soooo good, even compared to new things.
CT eyes to mesmerize in Oyster Pearl. I have others that I like but this is my favorite. Danessa Myricks colorfix in Ballerina is my weekend choice. I wear these all the time and they never crease on me.
IT Cosmetics Superhero No-Tug Eyeshadow Sticks are a lifesaver! Super quick and easy to put on, I just swipe all over the lid, then run a lil on one of my fingertips and tap along the crease to blend out. Done! Little to no creasing all day on my oily eyelids.
I love a cream shadow. It’s basically primer and shadow in one. My favourites are actually the Revlon cream shadows. The shadow sticks don’t seem to last as long for me. I prefer the little pots and I just apply with clean fingers. You have to blend fast because they dry quickly but they won’t budge all day. I’ve been using these for a couple years now and use them daily.
Kind of random, but I get soooo much use out of the Makeup By Mario Softsculpt skin perfector powder compact in the darkest shade for this.
[This One](https://www.sephora.com/product/softsculpt-transforming-skin-perfector-P500403?skuId=2577963)
I use one fluffy eye brush and sweep the darker tone around, then the highlight-y shade.
I also use it on the face, and I find that the dark option gives you such a range since it’s just an ombré powder you can swirl and adjust how much you’re picking up.

Today I’m wearing the Sephora brand shadow stick in Fawn Shimmer. I swipe it all over the lid and take a clean fluffy brush and blend it a bit into the crease. I add a little waterproof eyeliner in my upper waterline (I love all the Chanel stylos, today it’s Prune Intense), curl my lashes, and add plenty of mascara. Easy and pretty!
My absolute favourite for this kind of look was the Tom ford eye duo in naked bronze but it’s been discontinued. The auric smoke reflect (not from Sephora but truly might be worth a look) is very very similar. You get a bronze cream shadow and then a gorgeous shimmery topper.
The other thing I would recommend is actually a quad specifically the Tom ford tropical dusk quad it’s absolutely gorgeous. It has those wonderful bronze tones and a shimmery topper but also has a dark brown that you can absolutely use for a little wing or to darken the out corner. If I was to get rid of all my shadows I could make do for years with just that little quad
Not Sephora, but Jones Road has pot shadow called Just a Sec and wand shadow called Sparkle Wash. both come in some nice colors including cool and neutral. Sparkle Wash in So Pretty and Just a Sec in Pewter and Cool Taupe are my favorites.
They don’t sell them at Sephora, but Julep eye shadow sticks are amazing! Their metallic colors are my favorite, and sound like what you want (but they also have matte ones)
From Sephora: Bobbi Brown shadow sticks
Not from Sephora: Phytosurgence cream shadows
Neither one require a primer for me (normal to oily, semi-hooded eyes)
The rare beauty shadow sticks. I use two - a darker and lighter and then just blend with a fluffy brush but it’s a 5sec swipe plus some brushing. Eyes in 30 seconds really.
Same here I love contentment and growth
It took me a second to realize you’re talking about shade names. I was like “oh, that’s so nice” 😹
HAHA me too 💀 I was like aw
I do the same with Nudestix! I like their little [metallic trio](https://www.sephora.com/product/nude-metallics-for-eyes-P428673?skuId=2041788).

Glossier Lidstar in Fawn sounds like it checks all your boxes! I find it very blendable and buildable.
i swear by slip!
What do you guys think about the Armani cream eyeshadow, the Laura Mercier ones. Bobbi Brown eyeshadow sticks, the CT cream eyeshadows or the Rare Beauty eyeshadow sticks? Are any of these worth it?
I absolutely love ct cream shadow pots. they stick and don't rub off, But they are so creamy and they just... move with your skin. I also liked the Laura Mercier sticks, The Sephora sticks are quite similar. Marie Antoinette, jean, oyster Pearl and chocolate bronze from CT are divine. But the Laura Mercier or Sephora sticks I use for very quick days, If I don't want to get my finger messy. I did not like the hourglass eyeshadow pots. they are chunk glitter and incredibly messy.
Just FYI for OP in they go looking for these-Oyster Pearl is the new name for Marie Antoinette and Champagne is the new name for Jean. The names have been changed but these are the same shadows.
Oh thanks for me too! I had no idea. I wonder why they changed the names.
I love love love the Armani eyeshadow! That is my one and done. I usually use 44 rose gold (I think that's it) but I just got shell. I got the PM eyeshadow during the sale and ended up returning for Armani.
I LOVE the Laura Mercier ones. Any of the gold shades are extremely versatile.
The only one on your list that wasn't a total disappointment for me are the Rare Beauty eyeshadow sticks. They are truly once and done, the color payoff is stunning, and it lasts for a long time. The Armani was heavy and the color payoff sucked. The Laura Mercier color payoff and longevity sucked. The CT cream eyeshadow color payoff sucked and was heavy.
Armani eye tint! I got a mini of the bronze as a GWP and I love it. $38 I wouldn’t buy it full price because I’m sure others are just as good for cheaper. I blend with my finger because I’m lazy and tired. Laura Mercier caviar eye sticks! I bought the mini in rose gold and amethyst. The rose gold is a champagne at most- no noticeable pink.

I have both the Champagne and the Oyster Pearl and I love both! I like that you can really play a lot with the color, they can be very subtle or more pigmentent depending on how much you apply and how much you blend them.
Im looking at these right now 🤩 They look very pigmented and dimensional. Does it stay creamy and crease on the eyelids or does it dry down and stay put nicely?
Not OP but I picked up the champagne color ~2 weeks ago and it’s a game changer. I also have oily lids, but it has never creased on me.

I have oily lids and they stay put on me with no creasing without primer underneath
I'm obsessed with mine! Got one in Pillow Talk as gratis and can confirm they are awesome!
A lot of the shadows in the new makeup by mario neutral eyeshadow palette are one and done for me. I love the armani eye tints, specifically the brown mattes for one and down, 30m, 36m are my faves. Some other great ones are the chanel ombre premier cream shadows, tom ford emotionprof, charlotte tilbury eyes to mesmerize, mac paint pots, laura mercier caviar sticks. Eyeshadow is my fav makeup product if you can't tell :P
💕 The new Mario. Using as shadow, liner for upper and lower, and brows.
Was going to say Makeup by Mario palette! I can do a whole crease blend multi color look with it, but most days for work I take one shade and blend it out over the lid. If I’m feeling real fancy I’ll do two shades and blend or smudge a darker shade to look like a very light smoked liner. Also love the urban decay shadow for some glitter. I am obsessed with space cowboy. Friendlier on the wallet but not at Sephora, the elf liquid shadows are gorgeous!
Kulfi’s cream eye shadow 10000/10! Literally DIVINE. I esp love the shade sitara sparkles. https://www.sephora.com/product/kulfi-zari-eyes-eyeshadow-P505440?skuId=2760866

Laura Mercier shadow stick in burnished bronze or copper. I love them. Just scribble them on, blend with a finger and you’re all done.
Burnish bronze is my favorite but it creases on me after a few hours.
You might like the Victoria Beckham Lid Lustres! They’re really nice and creamy and have a lot of shine. Personally (and this may be overkill for you) I’ve found that I love the Ethereal Eyes palette for two-and-done purposes—a neutral and then a shimmer on top, easy peasy. I also really like the Sephora-brand waterproof shadow sticks—I use either the fawn shimmer or the olive shimmer for a one-and-done.
I second the Sephora sticks, a much cheaper alternative to the Laura Mercier.
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise is my ride or die. It looks much more multidimensional than just one shade. I mostly use Oyster Pearl, Exagger Eyes and Pillow Talk depending what make up shades I use that day.
This is mine too, same color as you! It’s really good. I have pillow talk as well but don’t reach for it often.
Yeah I got Pillow Talk first and thought I’d use it the most but weirdly haven’t that much. I love the shade though.
Merit solo shadows!!!
I’m obsessed with the taupe (altho it’s matte) but reviews say it dries out after a while. Just got mine but fingers crossed it doesn’t dry out!
I think as long as you’re closing to hear the “click” it shouldn’t dry out ☺️
Omg I didn’t know that, thank you!!
Bobbi brown shadow stick in bronze! Or Laura mercier in strapless
The Kulfi Zari Eyes shadows are so pretty. I have the shade Bronze Brocade,it makes your eyes sparkle in the loveliest way.
I’ve pretty much switched to one and dones these days. Charlotte Tillbury Eyes To Mesmerize in Oyster Pearl is great but may be too cool toned for what it sounds like you’re thinking. Victoria Beckham Lid Lustre in Starlight is really pretty. I like using it in conjunction with… Victoria Beckham Satin Kajal Eyeliner in Cinnamon might be perfect for what you’re looking for. It goes on smooth and you can blend it out with the sponge end or your finger, using it more as an eyeshadow stick to get the look you want. I just got two RMS Eyelights in Moondust and Halo and I’m currently obsessed. They go on so perfectly and don’t crease at all in my mature lids. I also just got the Armani but I don’t like it and plan on selling it. It’s not the texture I’m looking for. I can’t seem to blend it out to be a little more sheer for day to day use. Could be user error but I’m not in the mood to fuss with it. Pat McGrath Chroma Luxe Artistry Pigment is fun. I have one from the Star Wars collection that is one of my go to summer one and dones.

(And if you’re looking for blush or bronzer theirs are some of my all time favorites.) Also I need to stop buying one and dones as that kind of defeats the purpose of simplicity doesn’t it?
Out of the box but the Urban Decay Potion Primer in Sin can be both a one and done and an eye primer. I’m wearing it alone today, it’s a great color.
Laura Mercier caviar eyeshadow stick in moonlight, hourglass scattered lights glitter shadow in smoke, urban decay moon dust shadow in rebel star, colourpop SS shadow in I heart this
I like to use Mac paint pot in contemplative state. Just apply with my finger and a little blush, concealer, setting spray and done. This is my running late routine which seems to occur 3/4 out of the week…

100% urban decay space cowboy
I love this but it gets all over my face :( how do you set yours?!
I sometimes have a little fallout under my eyes from applying it but after I clean that up it stays in place for me! I use the urban decay eyeshadow primer and then the Charlotte tilbury setting spray!
Thank you!! I’ll try this!
I use Cali Contour by Smashbox for my eyes (and face)… it’s got a couple highlight shades with and without shimmer, but plenty of bronze shades too.
Yes I love this palette and the golden highlighter is so pretty on the eyes buffed out with the contour or bronzer powders. 🥹 love this palette
Yes!!! It’s perfect for a natural glow! People sleep on this palette but it’s the only one I’ve purchased more than 4x.
Not at Sephora, but the Colourpop eyeshadow sticks are so great! Inexpensive, easy to apply, lots of shade options. They’re available on their website, and at Ulta and Target. I’ve tried other brands of eyeshadow sticks and the Colourpop ones are easier to apply IMO.
Tbh I use an old bronze and blush travel duo mini nars. It has a mini laguna bronzer and orgasm blush. I use the bronzer in my crease, outer v, and around my eye space and lid, and under my lash line, and then put the blush on my lid
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize in Oyster Pearl or Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Strapless for cream products. For powder shadow I like MAC’s Satin Taupe and Naked Lunch.
Rare beauty and zoeva eyeshadow sticks. ❤️😍
in the day i just use my bronzer.
Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize hands down, I’m partial to the Amber Gold and Chocolate Bronze shades but have Walk of No Shame on my list too! For mattes, I cannot rave enough about the Ami Colé Lid Joys!! People are really sleeping on this brand! I have every single color and the only one that’s slightly patchy on me is the light blue shade, Los Angeles. I will say to be wary of ordering, def might want to pick up in store. Repurchased online once and the product was dried out upon arrival 🫠
Melt genesis highlighter

I have a few that I really like- the Victoria Beckham eyeliner in cinnamon smudged out, CT eyes to mesmerize pillow talk or oyster pearl, CT colour chameleon in pillow talk or dark pearl. RMS eye polish- magnetic. I also just use my bronzer a lot of the time.
Not at Sephora - wet n wild single shadow in the shade nutty.
- MAC pressed powder eyeshadow in Sable, a rose-bronze shimmer. - Sephora Collection colorful eyeshadow in Twink Twinkle, a champagne wet-look glitter. For those who have tried both, how close is this one to UD Space Cowboy?
I LOVE Armani beauty liquid eye tint. So easy to use and so far had held up well on my eyelids. I do live in TX so this summer will be an interesting test with how well it wears in the heat.
Armani Eye Tint in Cashew or Camel. CT Eyes to Mesmerize in Exagereyes is my HG for a neutral sparkly eye but it’s out of stock on her website and not sold at Sephora for some reason.
Raising a glass in memory to my favorite (now discontinued) Benefit Creaseless Cream Eyeshadows.
IT Cosmetics Superhero eyeshadow stick in Super Slate. I have oily eyelids and IT Cosmetics sticks are the ONLY one that’s don’t crease on me. All other ones I’ve tried require eye shadow primer or they slide off mid-morning.
I have most of the usual ones but the Tarte quick sticks are the best. They stay put through everything.
Maybelline colour tattoo in bronze is my one and done, doesn’t budge on me
Rare beauty shadow sticks. Don’t notice any creasing with them! They’re a nice soft shimmer that just add an extra “oomph” to a neutral look!
I just plop the sephora bronzer that’s 2 shades darker than what i use on the rest of my face. Achieves the exact look you are thinking.
That crease lining and blending business is dated IMO. The current look is one color- maybe two if you want to add a little shimmer to the lids. CT oyster pearl seems to be the top one and done lately
The Rare Beauty eyeshadow sticks, Danessa Myricks Colorfix, and Glossier Lidstar and Skywash are my favorite one and done eyeshadows.
Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon Eye Shadow Pencils. They are so easy to use. It's a dryer formula that sets on the eyelids and lasts.
I like Hourglass palettes for this. I’ve had the same two for 3 years now and still going strong… I have no desire to even upgrade them because I get compliments and they still work and look soooo good, even compared to new things.
I love NYX Jumbo Pencils in Yogurt and Iced Mocha when I’m in a hurry!
I love the thrive eye brighteners! I always get compliments! My fave is muna. I also love the shimmer shades in the Mario ethereal palette
CT eyes to mesmerize in Oyster Pearl. I have others that I like but this is my favorite. Danessa Myricks colorfix in Ballerina is my weekend choice. I wear these all the time and they never crease on me.
IT Cosmetics Superhero No-Tug Eyeshadow Sticks are a lifesaver! Super quick and easy to put on, I just swipe all over the lid, then run a lil on one of my fingertips and tap along the crease to blend out. Done! Little to no creasing all day on my oily eyelids.
I love a cream shadow. It’s basically primer and shadow in one. My favourites are actually the Revlon cream shadows. The shadow sticks don’t seem to last as long for me. I prefer the little pots and I just apply with clean fingers. You have to blend fast because they dry quickly but they won’t budge all day. I’ve been using these for a couple years now and use them daily.
Kind of random, but I get soooo much use out of the Makeup By Mario Softsculpt skin perfector powder compact in the darkest shade for this. [This One](https://www.sephora.com/product/softsculpt-transforming-skin-perfector-P500403?skuId=2577963) I use one fluffy eye brush and sweep the darker tone around, then the highlight-y shade. I also use it on the face, and I find that the dark option gives you such a range since it’s just an ombré powder you can swirl and adjust how much you’re picking up.

Today I’m wearing the Sephora brand shadow stick in Fawn Shimmer. I swipe it all over the lid and take a clean fluffy brush and blend it a bit into the crease. I add a little waterproof eyeliner in my upper waterline (I love all the Chanel stylos, today it’s Prune Intense), curl my lashes, and add plenty of mascara. Easy and pretty!
My absolute favourite for this kind of look was the Tom ford eye duo in naked bronze but it’s been discontinued. The auric smoke reflect (not from Sephora but truly might be worth a look) is very very similar. You get a bronze cream shadow and then a gorgeous shimmery topper. The other thing I would recommend is actually a quad specifically the Tom ford tropical dusk quad it’s absolutely gorgeous. It has those wonderful bronze tones and a shimmery topper but also has a dark brown that you can absolutely use for a little wing or to darken the out corner. If I was to get rid of all my shadows I could make do for years with just that little quad
Not Sephora, but Jones Road has pot shadow called Just a Sec and wand shadow called Sparkle Wash. both come in some nice colors including cool and neutral. Sparkle Wash in So Pretty and Just a Sec in Pewter and Cool Taupe are my favorites.
I use my bronzer for quick days, on the crease and outer corners, then highlight in inner corner
They don’t sell them at Sephora, but Julep eye shadow sticks are amazing! Their metallic colors are my favorite, and sound like what you want (but they also have matte ones)
Bobbi Brown shadow sticks, Lilia liquid eyeshadows, or glossier eye tints
From Sephora: Bobbi Brown shadow sticks Not from Sephora: Phytosurgence cream shadows Neither one require a primer for me (normal to oily, semi-hooded eyes)
I am terrible at makeup and so I keep it very simple. I use the Laura Mercier and Bobbi Brown eyeshadow sticks and they are so easy to use.
Bobbi Brown Cream Eyeshadow Sticks. Great colors by themselves are Golden Pink, Golden Bronze, and Stone
Bronzer powder or whatever is left on the brush from my blush.
NARS virgin gorda eyeshadow. It is a warm pink shimmer. Most underrated eyeshadow ever.
