Beauty news: Revlon to release ColorStay Velour Stick & Glaze Stick

I am the first person to admit that I’m no MUA, so I love products that deliver simply and effectively without the need for too much ‘fine tuning’, if you know what I mean! I own a bunch of great eye shadow pots and eye shadow pencils, which basically deliver a modern look with one swipe and a little fingerwork.

I was pretty excited then to hear that come mid-May, Revlon will be releasing ColorStay Velour Stick and ColorStay Glaze Stick, which are innovative one-swipe eyeshadow sticks for statement eyes that deliver an amazing 16-hour wear. The easy-to-use pencil format and wide range of shades allow for maximum creativity, whether you go monochromatic or mix and match with colours and finishes.

The Velour Stick will feature a luxe, super smooth matte finish and extreme colour payoff (love that). Its effortless application reportedly makes it pretty much foolproof, whilst its buildability will allow for layering dimension and creativity plus. The velvety texture has also been designed to remain comfortable all day, without fading, creasing or smearing. Pretty much the dream, huh?

At the opposite end of the spectrum, Glaze Stick has a creamy formula infused with metallic and duo chrome pigments, creating a silky pearl finish for a lid that sparkles and shines.  The shimmering, multi-dimensional colour wears all day without fading, creasing or smearing.

There will be six shades available in two finishes, and the sticks will include a smudger for optimal blending. At $22 these will most definitely be a beauty 'steal', and I for one cannot wait to have a play.
