Clinique Chubby Stick for Eyes in Lots o' Latte

 When the By Terry Ombre Blackstar craziness began I wanted one so bad. There is just something about a cream eyeshadow in a stick that I can’t explain. Since no one sells By Terry here *cry emoji* I decided to go with the next best thing, which also has been on my wishlist for a very long time: the Clinique Chubby Stick for Eyes. I hopped on over to the nearest Clinique counter, swatched many colours and decided to go with Lots o’ Latte; a gorgeous light brown colour.

I actually wanted something more taupe coloured, but I am very pleased with this one. It’s not too warm toned and I personally see a slight hidden taupe in there. It’s very well pigmented and easy to apply. I just ‘‘paint’’ my eyelid with the Chubby Stick and blend it out with my trusty MAC 217 brush. Yes, it’s that easy!

This cream eyeshadow gives your eyelids a gorgeous, brown sheen and the colour is also very buildable. Just keep applying and blending until you’re happy with the end result. It also lasts for quite some time; nine hours I would say. A little note with that is that I have very oily eyelids and an eyeshadow normally melts right off my eyes. I also didn’t use an eye primer, because I ran out of that. So nine hours is quite extraordinary on my ‘eyeshadow wearing days’.

I’m quite pleased with my newest addition. Normally I’m not an eyeshadow person cause 1. the blending just takes a lot of time and 2. it will crease in no time. I do have a lot of eyeshadow palettes in my collection, which is weird, since I don’t use them as often. This eyeshadow stick however applies like a dream and looks fab at any time of the day. Definitely one of my new faves!
