What the gurus are saying

These sticks wear all day without budging, even through swimming and sweating, and don't irritate sensitive eyelids the way some eyeshadow can. Gurus praise them most for lasting through casual summer days and for their price point, though one notes they wear slightly better with primer than without. The range of finishes and comfortable wear make them a go-to for no-fuss makeup.

"My favorites are Bobby Brown, Laura Mercier, and also elf. Elf has good shadow sticks, and it's good and really affordable, even though I do prefer Bobby Brown overall."

"I've been telling you about these for a couple of months, but I used them in the video on Tuesday and got a really pretty look out of them. I just really love these. I used them that time with no eyelid primer just to see how they would wear. I feel like they wear slightly better with primer than without, but you don't 100 percent need primer for them to wear. They didn't clump up in my crease or anything."

"I've really been enjoying the elf eyeshadow pencils since I got them back in the fall and I'm glad to see that you don't have to have eye primer with them. They're very comfortable to wear. My eyelids were kind of burning this morning, and with these they don't feel irritated at all. So those are good."

"I tried two other brands of eyeshadow sticks this year. The IT Cosmetics Superhero No Tug Shadow Sticks and the Elf No Smudge Shadow Sticks. These are both fantastic. I love them. I have three of the Elf. They come in shimmers and mattes and the price point on these is fantastic. These are the ones that I use probably most of the summer when you just want to not be a slave to your makeup and want to do really super casual. I would just do a little bit on the eyelid, this in the outer corner, use this as my under eyeliner, and it would last all day. They last all day. They didn't irritate my eyelids."

"These are just amazing. I love them. I have them in Magnetic Pull and Rose Gold. They're just beautiful and they're beautiful together and they lasted all day. I brought these on the trip along with my little MAC single in Malt and that was like my eyeshadow look for the day, like my daytime look every day. These ever stayed in place. I could swim in them and sweat in them and do anything in them and they just didn't budge. I like Magnetic Pull so much as an eyeliner on my lower lid. These are really great long-lasting inexpensive eyeshadow sticks."
