elf Magnetic Pull, Blue Steel, Midnight Sapphire, Rich Amethyst No Budge Shadow Sticks Reviews & Swatches

elf Magnetic Pull No Budge Shadow Stick

Magnetic Pull

elf Magnetic Pull No Budge Shadow Stick ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium taupe with subtle, cool undertones and a pearly sheen.

  • Semi-opaque, somewhat buildable coverage
  • Lightly creamy, glided on comfortably without tugging
  • Applied evenly, best blended out with a fingertip
  • Long-wearing (10 hours without creasing)

FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).

Formula Overview

$5.00/0.05 oz. - $100.00 Per Ounce

The formula is comparable across both the Matte and original (Shimmer) ranges. I felt like the Matte shades were ever-so-slightly thicker in a way that enabled them to have higher coverage and a smoother laydown of color overall whereas the Shimmers felt a touch thinner but the shimmer seemed to be forgiving (as it can be).

The formula is supposed to have "high pigment" and "long-lasting color." They had a smooth, lightly creamy consistency that had enough glide to comfortably move along the lash line or over the lid space without tugging. Most of the shades had semi-opaque to opaque color payoff, and while not every single one applied evenly, most did.

I found that using a fingertip was the most foolproof method to even out the product for all-over color while a dense, synthetic brush worked well to buff out edges. If blending out the edges of a more contrasting shade (against one's skin tone), you'll want to work one eye at a time as the formula dried down and set to a more transfer-resistant finish. The matte shades seemed to have a bit more play-time relative to the shimmer shades but not by much!

Once the formula set, it stayed on well and lasted for 10 hours without fading or creasing on me.
