There are a multitude of reasons as to why someone would want to simplify their beauty regime. Common factors include a refusal to engage in overconsumption; complexion changes due to hormonal fluctuations or environmental disruptions; as well as the need to save on time or money. And while paring back is never easy, the process is significantly less complicated with the introduction of multi-tasking make-up sticks. That is, pigmented batons designed to provide a dynamic wash of colour to your lids, lips, and cheeks.
Typically, these formulas tend to veer towards the rich, creamy spectrum due to its cylindrical format, with its decadent texture allowing it to be seamlessly blended out easily with one’s fingertips—thus adding to the convenience factor. For those simply looking to add a touch of colour, we say dab it on with your digits. And for others looking to achieve a more precise effect, utilise a dual-sized brush to pick up the pigment from said make-up sticks. The larger side of the brush is optimal for application along the mien, while the smaller surface is perfect for the eyelids and pout.
This, however, brings us to the next question: which all-purpose make-up sticks should you be adding to your stash? Lucky for you, Vogue Singapore has you covered. Below, our curation of outstanding products to add to cart, stat.
