The Ombre Hypnôse Stylo eyeshadow sticks (£18) are a new release from Lancôme. If you are a fan of the By Terry Ombre Blackstar sticks (£29), you’ll love these for just over half the price. I’ve been trying out shade 03 Taupe Quartz and I love it.

You can create a gorgeous eye makeup look in seconds with these cream shadow sticks. They look great on their own, blended out across the eyelid, and you can also use them as a liner thanks to their pointy tip which you can maintain with a built in sharpener. Once you have put these on your skin, they literally won’t budge until you use a good waterproof eye makeup remover. This makes them incredibly long-wearing (mine stayed put all day), but it also means you have to work quickly in blending them.

Taupe Quartz is a brown-grey colour with a pretty luminous finish. Like all of the other 8 shades in the line-up, it is highly pigmented but feels very light on the skin. This is a great shadow for easy daytime wear, but can also be built up or layered with other colours for a more dramatic night-time look.

Do you like the look of this?
