By Terry Ombre Blackstar in Misty Rock



I already had one of these little cream shadow sticks (I posted about Bronze moon here), and as they're so easy I had to add another one to the collection... 

I picked this new By Terry Ombre Blackstar (£27.50) with my recent Space NK voucher, so it was essentially free! I couldn't decided between shades for ages, but I eventually went for Misty rock, as it seems a bit pinker and warmer and generally a colour I am all over. I'd actually swatched this back when I was in New York and fallen in love with the colour & how it did not come off my hand. 

Misty rock is a slightly pink shimmery taupe. On the look here I'm wearing it smudged all over the lid using my finger to blend the edges, and then I added a matte brown shadow in the crease & outer corner to add a little definition. I love the colour, it's really wearable and the shimmer isn't glittery or gritty at all, but nicely done and just smooth buttery shimmer. I just love how easy the By terry shadow sticks are, you just swipe - smudge - go! I would recommend dabbing on a bit of primer beforehand, and then you're good until you take it off :) 

Have you tried one of these? What's your favourite cream eyeshadow?

  1. Hello, you look like you might have about the same complexion as I do (in a perfect Mac world that would be about N10, even though I do lean slightly to a pink undertone) and I just got Bronze moon (which I've not tried on yet) which seems less warm than I'd hoped. Did you ever develop a preference between Misty Rock and Bronze Moon?
