Allergic reaction to a very beautiful product
While I love the colors and the idea behind this product, every color I tried gave me an immediate tearing up and redness/s discomfort reaction immediately after application (I tried matte and shimmer as sometimes I do not tolerate shimmer-both has this reaction). I want to love these products, but I had a similar issue with the loose and pressed powder eye shadows from this company as well so I’ve just given up at this point and gone back to my old faithful, even more minimal ingredient cosmetic brand (l u n a roots). I would love to use these products because of all the lovely color options, but I think they just aren’tfor me.
Shadow sticks
It goes on smooth as silk and has all day lasting power!
Love this shadow stick
I've tried various brands of shadow sticks but none of them compare to Honeybees! The color is amazing, lasts all day and is gentle on my mature skin.
I highly recommend.
Smooth color
I have two shades both have great color and smooth application.
Love These
I really love these. I can't seem to order the right colors, but that's on me. The color goes on really smoothly and I love that they're creamy, not powdery, which emphasize my wrinkles.
I'll definitely buy these again!
Rose Gold Instant Shadow Stik
I think that the color of this shadow is so pretty on my hazel eyes. The shimmer is not overdone, not glittery and adds brightness. It is creamy and so easy to apply. I would like to purchase more colors.
Lavender Shadow Stick
Really nice, and applies softly by color/texture
Gorgeous eye stick!!!
I only use cream eye shadow and it’s been difficult to find some for many years. I was happy to find Honeybee Garden as I prefer to use cosmetics made with natural ingredients. I bought 2 and am in love with them, they last all day and do not crease. Shades are true to their color when you apply them.
Perfect Eyeshadow
Love these shadow sticks! They are creamy and have a good amount of pigment. Plus, each stick has a little blending brush at the other end! I just got a bunch of the newer colors and they're great as well! This is the only eyeshadow I use anymore, it's so easy to apply!
Instant Shadow - love
Instant Shadow - love love love them. I have purchased many colors. They go on so easily and look great all day.
Instant Shadow Stiks
I absolutely love these eye shadow stiks!!!! They are so easy to apply and wear extremely well. I use the lightest colors for a very natural look but they really make a difference. So happy to have found these!
eye shadow stiks
I've tried other eye shadow products before, but this is the best! These eye shadows go on so smoothly, don't cake or crease and wear all day without fading. Makes my eyes look great and natural and so easy to apply, I now use them everyday where before I found these, I would only use eye shadow for special occasions. Love !!!
10/10, use for more than eye shadow
I think I've bought every color of these. I don't know how this is even "make up" because the product is more like tinted skincare. No cakey, no heavy, no sticky, no greasy, no creasing, no running... No dry patch, no tugging... No irritation for eyes or skin, no clogged pores, no "I'll look nice today and deal with the pimples tomorrow," - I have literally NOTHING negative to say. I'll probably never use anything else.
For reference, I'm very pale (foundation Geisha), light freckles, and generally look best in "fall neutrals" (like hunter green).
Despite having all colors, my main go-to's are White, Desert Sand, and Dusty Rose. For my complexion, this is the perfect "no make up make up." White to make my under eye bags less dramatic (plus overall brightener, since my tinted sunscreen is a bit dark for me so this evens it out), Desert Sand as contour (crease of eye lids, top of forehead, just under cheekbones), Dusty Rose on eyelids and as a blush. Gives my face dimension (considering how flat foundation or even just tinted sunscreen can make you look) while still looking natural. If I'm going for an obvious/dramatic make up look, I'll add in a bit of Cabernet to eyes and cheeks and even put it on my lips. Color lasts!
I had tried each color of the multisticks, and though they're beautiful colors and also a great product, none of those colors really suited me. That inspired me to try the idea with the shadow sticks until I found my perfect combo - DO RECOMMEND!
Can confirm that shadow sticks are perfect to be used all over your face, so wherever you want whatever color, go for it.
SHADOW STICKS
Where have you been all my life? I had tried a brand off Amazon...not the best. HBG sticks do not disappear in two weeks of use. I have two different shades for the summer, one is the Arctic Violet and one is the Dusty Rose. Literally makes it quick and easy and I will add a finger smudge of a powder lightener with the Dusty Rose brightening the eyes more... and with the Violet I pull to a lighter smudge of soft brown. This makes life and make up fun! As an artist I am lured by color and that is one thing Honey Bee Gardens is good about... their colors. Every person is a combo of hair color, eye color, skin color, eyebrow color, lip color etc... but there seems to be something for all of us here! This shadow Stick lasts from 6 am till I wash my face in the evenings around 7... so over 12 hours with out fading. Try it because you'll love it. It is very freeing throwing out all your old eye make up. Remember to do that. Thank you HBG!!!
Twinkle Pink
I love this color and the ease of putting it on. It makes it easier to add a little twinkle to my day. This is my favorite base color and a hard one to find, baby pink with a little shimmer. It’s perfect!
shadow sticks
As promised! Goes on easy (even for someone as uncoordinated as myself). Great neutral colors, stays on but not so much that it's a pain. Very happy with my purchase. I may well get more colors in future.
Wow
Wow. These are truly fantastic. They are so much easier and simple than powder shadow. My 13 year old daughter found this in my makeup bag and asked if I can buy her one because she loves it too. I have the color “sunshine shimmer” and I would also like to try “River stone” and will probably buy “rose gold shimmer” for my daughter.
Favorite!!
The Instant Shadow Stik is awesome with various colors available!! I would love to try the purple one next!
Eye shadow sticks
Just received and tried a couple of them. I am well pleased. No drag and blend well.
Smooth and Creamy
Love the white for creating quick highlights that blend in easily with other shadows. Instant 60s vibe if you put it on full strength.
These are great!
I ordered four of these, and I really like them. They go on easily and the packaging is great--very easy to use. I only wish I had a darker brown color which is the only reason for my four stars. Hopefully more colors can come out soon! Thanks Honeybee Gardens!
Perfect on-the-go
These are really nice. I love me a shadow stick, perfect for travel. I got Sunshine and Shell. They’re very forgiving. I can blend them with my finger and you can press harder for a more rich color pay off or use a light hand for a more subtle wash of color. Definitely will be getting other colors because the range is beautiful.
Luv luv luv luv!!!!!!!!
Oh wow! I ordered 3 colors (Sunshine shimmer, Dusty Rose matte and Riverstone Matte) and now I’m plotting to come back and get many more. These sticks are SO creamy, SO pigmented, SO gorgeous. SO blend-able, just amazing in every way.!! I have come to love and prefer creamy products as they are just so easily blended to create an ideal look, as well as they are staying power. My advice is to order one and see what you think!! My one request is the the colors are printed on the exterior of the shadow stiks. If I continue to purchase additional colors, I can anticipate a some uncertainty in exact coloring without a label. (I added my own exterior labels.). So happy!!
Eyeshadow stick
I recently bought the Sangria eye stick. It is beautiful. Can't go wrong with this one.
instant shadow sticks
I ordered the Sangria shadow stick and it looks great. It goes on smoothly and lasts all day without looking heavy or creasing. Goes great with my brown eyes. An eye makeup must have.
In love with these!
I'm a casual makeup user and these are perfect! Very effortless and look amazing. I also have issues with eye shadows ending up in the crease of my eyes and these stay put without a primer. I find them easy to blend, I can't wait to try the new colors. Thanks for making a great product!
Instant Shadow Stik
I love this concept for convenience. I do not like the way it drags over my eyelid. I ordered the dusty rose and it is so skin-colored that I can't tell it's even on. I might order a different color at a later time.
Love These!
Love how smoothly these go on! And they don’t irritate my super-sensitive eyes! Please make more shades - would love a warm or neutral dark matte brown!
Dusty Rose shadow stick
We took a direct hit from hurricane Ian last year and lost most of our personal property in the flooding....including all of my cosmetics. I am just now feeling up to wearing make-up again and decided to give Honeybee Gardens a try. I love the fact that Honeybee Gardens is vegan and safe for sensitive skin. The shadow stick is probably the best eyeshadow product I have ever owned! I purchased dusty rose which works perfect for my fair skin. It goes on so smooth and effortlessly, plus there is a little blending brush on the other end of shadow stick. I am going to be purchasing more colors soon. Please don't stop making this product.
Eyeshadow Artic Violet
Goes on great and a beautiful color !
Shadow Sticks
So far I tried the dusty rose, nice neutral color. Ordered two others and suspect I'll like them also. I do like the softness and the brush to blend makes it convenient. I would recommend marking the color you purchase as it is not noted on the product.
Eye Stick - violet shimmer
Love this eyeliner. Longtime Aveda user and as you know they discontinued makeup. Someone suggested Honeybee Gardens and I am glad they did. I am loving all the products.
I've never used shadow like this - I love it. It goes on smoothly and stays on.
These are fabulous!
I purchased the dusty rose and river stone matte. They are both nicely pigmented and last all day with using any primer! They go on smoothly. I use the river stone as my contour shade if I want a more dramatic effect and the dusty rose for my all over lid shade for subtle effect. I can't wait to buy more. I am totaling giving up another brand for these. Please, please make more shades!!!!
These are fabulous!
I bought two matte shades: riverstone and dusty rose. The colors are fantastic and work well separately and together. They go on so smoothly and last all day! (Without a primer, I must add.) I will be buying more. Please make a matte chocolate and a matte plum shade!
Amazing product!
I am allergic to basically all make up. I am in my 40s and haven’t worn eye makeup since a teen! HoneyBee Gardens has been amazing for me, I can wear make up again!
love the matte cream sticks
so far i have only tried one of the colors. I really like they way it goes on smooth. I like these better than the powder- since I am older- the sparkly ones do not look good on me or go on and stay on - please make more colors- matte- varieties of these cream sticks and I love the brush also. thank you ( blues, greens, violet)
Instant shadow sticks
I have been looking and hoping you would come out with shades just like these-summer shimmer and rose gold. I am so happy you did! They are perfect!
Instant Shadow Stik
This is so creamy and easy to apply. It lasts all day and doesn’t get greasy. Great product
Great product handy for travel smooth and light
Just ordered one to try and love it. Will be ordering more shades. I love the smoothness and that there’s a brush on the other end. Makes it perfect for travel as no need to drag makeup and brushes/tools. It applies so smoothly and feels light and great.
Please make more shades.
Instant Shadow Stick
I bought this in Dusty Rose and Seashell Matte.
These are creamy and easy to apply and blend.
I have hooded eyes with not much lid showing, but with a lot of space between crease and brow. I blend these from lash line to under brow. I do add another deeper taupe color stick from a different brand to the outer crease area for some more dimension.
In future I'm going to try the Riverstone matte shade to use as a contour color.
These sticks are a great addition to my daily makeup routine.
Love the color
I love the color of this shadow stik and how it glides on so easily. Blending with this is super easy.
perfection
I bought two shimmer (artic violet and rose gold) and two matte (dusty rose and riverstone).
I tried the rose gold first and really liked it. beautiful pop of color and bright enough for my eyes to shine from behind thick glasses while still being professional (wore it to work several times).
the artic violet really brought out my eyes with an even greater contrast. I mixed it with the rose gold initially and wore it on its own some too. it's a beautiful purple that doesn't risk looking like a bruise. it is very clever in its shading to provide contrast more than anything so that it makes YOUR eyes shine vs it-the-shadow standing out.
today was my first finally giving the dusty rose a try, and I ran to write this review. I put this one on my eyes, cheeks, and lips as if it were a multistick. the others looked great but THIS is my color!!!
no idea when I'll actually get around to trying riverstone or the other colors now. I had meant to (initial idea was each day a different color or color combo to see what I liked) but then I did rose gold several days in a row, barely made myself include the artic violet, took over a week to try out dusty rose - HOW IS IT EVEN BETTER?
as for the product itself (vs the AMAZING colors), it glides on smooth. using the brush to blend or my pinky are both great. it's never sticky, not cakey, zero ick, and wears effortlessly all day - even in the middle of mega hot summer humid heat. no skin irritation, no dryness, no greasiness, no stiffness, no running or smudging, no any issues, literally no complaints. when I apply it directly to lash line (close my eyes and put it directly on my lashes so that there's color in top and bottom eyeliner sections), it actually seems to work as a mascara primer too with how nicely the mascara glided on after. That was a happy thing to notice.
you have done it again Honeybee Gardens with perfection!
so smooth and great color!
I have hooded eyes, which can make eyeshadow application a challenge. These colors go on so smoothly and the brush on the other end is PERFECT to blend! I will be ordering more colors!
Amazing eyeshadow sticks
I just received these eyeshadows and love them!! I got the dusty rose and arctic violet. They are both so pretty and I have been wearing them all day and no fading. I can't wait to buy more and hope more colors to come in the future. These are amazing!!
