I was unexpectedly surprised seeing this a few hours ago, what can I say? The packaging suckered me in so I ended up chatting with a lady about Iman shades while eyeballing the Hard Candy. I ended up buying the Radiant Shadow Stick in Love after about 10 minutes of debate since I don't own any hot pink eyeshadows. Read on for my oddball review.
Once I got home I looked at the ingredients low and behold the first ingredient is castor oil! I immediately lost hope, ended up testing on my hand, weak greasy payoff. Same thing on the eyes with primer.....
BUT I decided to see how it works as a lip color since I forgot to get some chapstick for my lizard lips. This stuff makes my lips feel soooo great, gives a semi sheer lipstick look, and I feel like a smart cookie for salvaging this.
As a eyeshadow I could never recommend this due to the texture, at least with the shade Love. However if you're feeling risky you could try it out with an industrial strength primer and powder shadow to set.... Now that I think of it if you're feeling brave and know what you're doing this stuff is goopy enough to pat glitter over it to adhere. YMMV of course.
ETA: Okay, to use this as an glitter adhesive would be silly since they sell glitter cream eyeshadows in sliding compacts. I couldn't justify using an eye product on my lips, no matter how creamy and great it felt for a day. Sooo I went and exchanged it for the Painted Lady Lipstick in No Peeking. It surprised me in a good way, polar opposite of the eye stick... I no longer feel the urge to stock up on Max Factor Vivid Impact l/s, this gives me a similar balm like feel. I'll keep my fingers crossed this isn't a fluke!
