Foundation Sticks - what are your faves?
I have recently become obsessed with foundation sticks, I love how easy they are to put on and they blend so nicely!!! I have tried both Shiseido and Bobbi Brown's. Bobbi's was a little too greasy and while i loved Shiseido's they have discontinued my shade. I am looking into trying the Laura Mercier one next...does anyone have a stick foundation that they love?

Re: Foundation Sticks - what are your faves?
I wasn't too fond of the Laura Mercier foundation sticks. I found them to be a bit on the dry side. However, I LOVE the MAC stick foundations. They glide on so smoothly and you can even blend them with a foundation brush once you paint them onto your skin. Fantastic color range and over Prep & Prime foundation primer it lasts and lasts.

I have had positive experience with the Clinique one, I think it's called City Stick? Worked well for me! The Clinique one has good coverage and was easy to buff with a brush.

The MAC, Clinique, and MaxFactor stick foundations are really good. I was surprised by how good the MaxFactor one was...

Re: Foundation Sticks - what are your faves?
Hmm, I was going to say Bobbi Brown's is my favourite. It has good coverage, enough for dark circles for me as well as blemishes, and is just the right texture for me. I've also got Stila's and find it greasier and with less coverage. It does feel more moisturising than Bobbi's though.

I used to quite like the Maybelline Express Sticks but those are long gone.

Re: Foundation Sticks - what are your faves?
I've been searching for a good foundation stick lately and after reading all the good reviews on MUA & Specktra, I decided to buy the Shiseido Foundation Stick. I took the shade I40 (Natural Fair Ivory) and it looks like the perfect match! When I tested it at Sephora, the texture felt sooo smooth that I immediately fell in love with it Can't wait to try it tomorrow
