The 11 Best Multipurpose Makeup Sticks

Despite having a pretty hefty makeup stash and enjoying the ritual of applying makeup before a night out or a special occasion, on a daily basis my makeup routine is decidedly pared-back. And while some of that is down to time constraints, a bigger part of is due to the fact that I’m just too lazy to spend any more than a few minutes putting things on my face of a morning. These days, I don’t even really have a makeup bag to speak of, preferring to opt for multipurpose makeup sticks that tick a few boxes at once. Whether that’s face sticks that blur the line between foundation and concealers or colourful crayons that pull shifts as blushers, eyeshadows and lipsticks without missing a trick—yes, these products are hardworking to say the least.
