Pixi Beauty has caught my attention again, and this time with something that isn’t new! I’m not sure how I missed these before, but in a random scan of their site, I noticed some eye shadow sticks I hadn’t tried before. I like the ease of a crayon, and the colors looked wearable so here we are — about to chat a little more about Pixi Endless Shade Stick Collection.
The collection includes seven shades that all fall in the neutral shade category. There is one matte shade but the rest have some shimmer or glimmer. Each stick costs $14 each which is about half the cost of most shadow sticks at Sephora. Pixi is always readily available to me at all my local Targets and some Walgreens.
Pearl Lustre – ivory shimmer *
Pink Quartz – nude rose shimmer
Matte Cognac – matte saddle light brown *
Copper Glaze – true copper shimmer
One & Done – golden bronzer shimmer
Bronze Blaze – chocolate bronze shimmer
Matte Cocoa – very dark matte brown

I absolutely love how these glide on the skin! Green tea, Chamomile, and Aloe help make this a smooth skin-loving product that it’s enjoyable to use. They never tug or drag, which I am more aware of these days since my mobile lids move around a lot when I apply products to my eyes. They are also very easy to blend out before setting into place. I need that time because I’m not a professional and don’t always get the shape right. — These give me just enough time to adjust things before locking in.
I can wear these all day (all day is about 10 hours/day) without getting those weird creasing lines or it smudging all under my eyes, and they never need sharpening which means one less thing to have to carry or hold onto.
Thankfully they are fairly easy to remove even with their long-staying power. I typically use a double cleanse method most days and it gets rid of everything ask expected.
I do hope they increase the shade range of these. I like using shadow sticks and have a few from Laura Mercier and Bobbi Brown but those are much pricier and harder for me to collect. I’d be so happy if they ever put out a purple-brown range since purple works great for my blue eyes while brown softens things and makes it more day-to-day than a stark black. I’d also like some more eye-brightening colors — to me, this means light shades whether they are matte or shimmer.
I always have fun with Pixi Products and am glad to have these added to my collection. Would you give these a try?
