Smoky ShadowBlast sticks from Covergirl kind of remind me of those eyes shadow sticks that came in make up packs that I begged mum for when I was six, so childhood memories came flooding back…
Covergirl has launched its new range of eye shadow sticks, Smoky ShadowBlast. With two colours in each stick Covergirl has ensured us ladies can create smoky looks in seconds and cut down on all the clutter in our handbags.
These sexy shades make creating that hot smoky eye look a breeze whether you’re between events or just need to be ready in two minutes. They kind of remind me of those eyes shadow sticks that came in make up packs that I begged mum for when I was six, so childhood memories of turning my sister into a clown came flooding back, poor thing, so I sent her a long overdue text apologizing.
Anyway sisterly torture aside, the sticks sure have their advantages for the Go Go Girls of today. They go on easily, with one colour as your base, the other to shade and shape with. The two I have contain two shades of blue; great for blondes, and my favourite, the black and white stick that contains a lovely silvery white with a pearl through it and a dark ebony also with a white pearl through it. The look they are going for is sexy, young and fun.
I keep one in my handbag as it can’t leak or crack and spill and putting in on takes as long or as little time as you want. As they are creamy you can easily blend with a finger, great for touch ups. Last Thursday night they passed the ultimate test, I was able to transform from young corporate to sexy minx in 3 minutes with no spilling make-up on car upholstery, while the boyfriend tried to find a park within a 1km radius of Toro- it’s great by the way, and worth the walk.
