About this item

HIGHLY PIGMENTED EYESHADOW ORCHID SHIMMER: Pink eyeshadow or purple eyeshadow? You don’t have to choose with this shimmery eyeshadow stick in pink-plum. With over 30 high-pigmented shades from Matte, Shimmer, and Metallic, you can build your own eyeshadow palette and go as understated or bold as the day (or night) calls for.
CREME-TO-POWDER WATERPROOF EYESHADOW: This waterproof, crème-to-powder eyeshadow stick glides effortlessly across lids before drying to a waterproof crease-proof powder finish.
NATURALLY EFFECTIVE INGREDIENTS VITAMIN C & E: This cream-to-powder eyeshadow stick does double-duty, thanks to the hydrating, nourishing formula with vitamin C & E. Delicate sensitive skin will love the vitamin E that protects against free radicals with antioxidants, and the vitamin C, which treats environmental damage to improve skin tone and texture. And candelilla wax makes every shade easy to blend, naturally.
NO BRUSH REQUIRED: Just glide and go. With smooth application, a built-in smudger for effortless blending, and a waterproof powder finish, you don’t need a brush to get the look you love.
HOW TO APPLY: Prime the smudger by coating it with color, then sweep the eyeshadow stick directly across your eyelids. Use the built-in smudger or your fingers to blend before the formula sets. For best results, prime the smudger by coating it with color prior to use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely natural look and easy application!
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2024
I am not a big eyeshadow person. Mostly because it's time consuming and I have hooded eyes so it usually just clumps up in the crease. I ended up buying this Julep Eyeshadow in Caramel Matte because of the positive reviews and I needed a light shade for my wedding makeup.

The price for one of these is a bit higher than buying a pallet, but it is very good quality. The color is subtle and natural, it glides on super easily, and turns into a matte powder once it dries. It stays on well all day and still looks beautiful by the end of the day. It doesn't clump up and applies evenly, and it is easy to smudge with the provided blender or with your finger.

Application with this is SO fast! It wasn't time consuming or tricky. It does still collect in the crease of my hooded eyes after hours of wearing, but it's easy to smooth back out with a finger (this is inevitable for me, my skin is so oily it makes my eyes burn sometimes!).

The staying power of this stuff is IMPRESSIVE! In the picture above, I used antimicrobial soap and water to remove it, but it didn't budge the makeup at all. I had to scrub with a towel to remove it (when its on my eyes, I use makeup remover to get it off). So this stuff lasts!

If you are looking for a natural looking eyeshadow that is super easy to apply and lasts all day, I HIGHLY recommend getting one of these.

Hope this helps!

I bought the shimmery taupe. It’s not too shimmery but just enough; it’s a gorgeous color, I use it everyday. I don’t have a lot of time to do my makeup so this is perfect! I would say it’s medium coverage, which is great because it’s easy to manipulate with the sponge on the opposite end, or your finger. I’ve used shadow sticks in the past that are WAY too heavy and it’s easy to make mistakes. You can’t make a mistake with this pencil, it’s too easy to fix. This also works great as a primer for eyeshadow, your eyeshadow looks better and lasts all day on top. Great product.

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2024
I like this eye shadow. It is easy to apply, I bought it for my wedding to use on my daughters and it was perfect for them. My only complaint is that there is relatively little in the tube, I expected it to be more. It was about an inch of actual eye shadow in the tube. Color is nice. Nice to have in your purse for a quick touch up.

Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2024
Got this on sale for $10 and it was totally worth it (i ended up buying a 2nd one and have 3 more waiting in my cart!). Color is very true to the picture. You can put it on as lightly or as heavy as you want, I tend to go easier as I don't like a bold/heavy look. doesn't smudge, doesn't bother my eyes (I wear contacts) and it's a creamy texture so it's not drying either. Easy to put on and good for a quick makeup routine. Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, Especially this color
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2024
I always thought these were kind of expensive so I passed and I bought cheaper versions, with ok, not great results.they were hard to put one pulling my eyelid and did not stay on long.

I saw these on sale and decided to buy them even though they were still a little pricier than the other ones. I could not be happier. I bought two- a light color and this one. This particular color stays on forever ,in fact you really need to use a make up remover to get it off. It's easy to put on and it's easy to blend. It goes on creamy but dries and stays put. The color is gorgeous , very neutral.

The lighter color I bought did not stay on as long, but still, I was very pleased. The most important thing about these sticks is, it will be easy to travel with and still have nice make up.

Just make sure to put the cap back on, or it will dry out!

1.0 out of 5 stars Received a used item! Color had unexpected glitter in it.
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2024
I didn't get to try this out because I received a used item. (And it appears I'm not the only one.) I was able to get a close look at it, and I was immediately disappointed with the color "mixture." The item I selected wouldn't have worked for me, regardless of any other issue.

I've been curious about these eyeshadow sticks for a long time. I wanted to test them out years ago, but they seemed kind of pricey for my budget. I don't like to spend more than I'm used to on an item I have no certainty will work as claimed. But then my friend told me she bought a stick on discount, and it was a game changer for her. (Easy to use, easy to blend, buildable color, quick application, lasts long, looks natural, etc.) She said she bought more and suggested I at least try one. She insisted they were worth the regular price... finding one on discount was just a bonus. We're very much alike in what we look for in beauty cosmetics, so I was intrigued. I also saw there were a ton more reviews on Amazon than the last time I checked, and the majority of them seemed highly positive. So, I went for it. I felt I had the amount of guarantee I needed to justify testing this thing out.

I got the sheer shimmery pink color to use as a highlighter and on the inner corner of my eyes for a brightening effect. But that's not going to happen now. After I received my used product, I took a closer look at the reviews on Amazon - mostly to see if anyone mentioned unexpected problems with the same color I ordered. Instead, I noticed there were quite a bit of people who received what appeared to be used products, too!

This is highly disappointing considering this brand seemed to have made a good name for itself over the last few years. I was really excited to finally try their infamously convenient and water-resistant eyeshadow stick. You'd think they'd be more careful about the products they're sending out - especially for what they're charging.

My eyeshadow stick was undoubtedly used before I received it. Box was slightly crushed with signs of having been opened. The tip of the eyeshadow was smudged and there was product smeared on the outside of the barrel. If all that wasn't proof enough, the sponge tip had makeup residue on it as if someone fully tried every part of this thing out.

I can't speak for the application and wear quality of the item because I'm not willing to risk transferring potential bacteria to my eyes, face, or even the back of my hand. I can say the expectation of the product was not met, right off the bat. I can also add that I was surprised that there looked to be big chunks of glitter in the shimmery sheer pink eyeshadow and on the sponge tip. (I wasn't expecting such large specks of actual GLITTER to be in the mix. It wasn't shown on the advertised photos or explicitly stated that cheap glitter would be used. I did expect some fine mineral-like shimmer, but not cheap glitter.)

I'd suggest that if you buy this product, you thoroughly inspect it upon receiving it. Having cosmetics melt or break during shipment is one thing. But being sold a used product (advertised as new) is absolutely unacceptable. Especially, when there's evidence of it be a reoccurring issue for this particular product.

I'm debating whether or not I want to try ordering another color - only because my friend was raving about this eyeshadow like it was the best product she has found to date. If I do decide to take another chance, I'd likely play it safe and choose a matte shade. I can handle some amount of "shimmer," but I feel I'm a bit too old and I don't get dressed up enough to decorate my eyes with glitter. (I cannot stress enough: This was straight up large specks of GLITTER - almost like you'd find in a craft store or in young teens' cheap & trendy makeup - mixed in with an otherwise nice looking shimmery/pearlescent color.)

I'm just worried I'll get another used product... or that the product was otherwise kept in unsanitary/uncertain conditions before I received it. I just don't understand how this issue could happen so often. (Search thru the product reviews for yourself and count the number of complaints. You may not find it to be excessive, but I do. It really should be more of a rare occurrence. I haven't found this many complaints of used/questionable products when researching other cosmetics I'm also interested in trying.)

Also, avoid the shimmery sheer light pink color... unless you're ok with random large specks of glitter. Then maybe go for it. The overall main color appeared nice with some shimmer to it already.
