I purchased Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Stick in a shimmery bronze colour called 'Bad Girl Bronze', for R89 at Clicks.
I like the packaging as the colour on the packaging is the exact shade of the product once applied. I have slightly oily eyelids but it is super pigmented so I only need to apply it in two swipes. The texture of the product is very smooth. I like to use it as an all-over shade but others have used this product as an eyeliner which should look very cool.
The only negative I have on this product is that it doesn’t have a swivel at the end for you to twist it up. Manual sharpening of the product leads to wastage and isn’t easy as the stick doesn’t fit most makeup sharpeners.
I don’t think this product is one of the most budget-friendly eyeshadow sticks out there but it is definitely high-quality so I think it is worth the price.
I bought these eyeshadow sticks on sale for R40 each. I have mine in the shades Bulletproof Beige, a shimmery champagne gold colour, and Bad Girl Bronze, a shimmery bronze colour.
This product is extremely versatile, and can be used as an all-over shadow, eyeliner or even a primer for shimmery powder shadows. I like to use my Bad Girl bronze as an all-over shade, or to line my lower lash line. The Bulletproof Beige is the absolute perfect inner corner highlight. They are extremely pigmented. The formula is creamy, soft and so, so easy to blend!
I've only ever worked with powder eyeshadows, and I'm happy to say that my transition into cream shadows was made much less scary by this product.
I've always wanted to get my hands on these shadow sticks but just never got around to doing so, so you can imagine my delight when I tore open my parcel from Beauty Bulletin and found it amongst two other delights !
I was given the shade 'Bulletproof beige',which I must say In all honesty, is exactly the shade I would have chosen for myself-BB, you know your insiders well! This shade is more on the golden side with a nice shimmer to it. Perfect for me because I love all things shimmery :p The shimmer is not over the top so this is wearable during the day. One swipe is all I need because it's richly pigmented but on my night out I layered it on a bit and it looked stunning .
I love that this shadow is in stick form, which makes application a breeze, no mess, no fuss. The creamy and silky formula makes this eyeshadow glide on with such ease. It's waterproof and stayed put on my eyelids from morning till I removed it myself before bedtime!
The icing on the proverbial cake would be if this were retractable but considering all its attributes, I will certainly be repurchasing.
I love the colours of these eyeshadows, they all have a slight shimmery pigment in them.. makes them perfect for both day and night.
No more crushed, messy eye shadow pallets!
Becareful not to use too much pressure on application else they will go on too dark and not blend well.
Dont try to use them a eye liners though.. casuse they are too thick and it will most likely go horribly wrong!

At first I thought these sticks were retractable but was disappointed when I found out they werent. But besides this, it applies like a DREAM! The bulletproof beige is my favourite and is subtle but shimmery and lasts all day. The turquoise blue is a beautiful electric colour that really makes my eyes pop. The ease of application cant be overstated, its brilliant! Soft and slides on perfectly. Its expensive at R85 per stick. I won these through BB during friday prizeday :) I love love this product!!!!! Highly recommend
The Scandaleyes Eyeshadow stick in Paranoid Purple is a lovely jewel toned, vivid purple. I really love how it makes my green eyes pop! The only con is that you waste quite a bit of product when sharpening the pencil which is a pity. It makes a great eyeshadow base for purple shadows though and can be built up to an intense amethyst colour!

As a dark skin girl, an eye shadow that is visible when applied can be hard to find, but the ScandalEyes eye shadow stick is highly pigmented and is clearly visible on my eyelids.
With one simple swipe, a good amount of the eye shadow was on my eyelid. It swept on so easily and because of how creamy it is, a firm hand is necessary during application.
I had to apply the eye shadow more than once to create even coverage. I also had to use a finger to help spread it evenly around my eye.
The colour lasted all day and I did not need to do any touch ups. It wasn’t easy to wash off later, but a good eye makeup remover can solve that problem for you.
It is not my favourite eye shadow stick because of how difficult it is to get even coverage over the eyelid. But the vibrancy of the colour, luxurious creamy texture and long lasting effect make up for it.
