New from Marc Jacobs, the Twinkle Pop Eye Sticks ($35 CAD) are a range of fun and easy to use eyeshadow pencils with a festive and shimmery formulation. Infused with alpine snow water from the Swiss Alps (pretty darn cool, eh?), these pencils glides effortlessly on the lids and leave behind a soothing feeling.

Marc Jacobs Twinkle Pop Eye Sticks |
The Twinkle Pop Eye Sticks come in an ultra-shiny silver casing. The twist-up lead is retractable and comes with an adorable cap with a tip shaped liked a traditional lead pencil. I don't really know how Marc Jacobs does it, but all his makeup products manages to be incredibly luxurious yet unbearably adorable at the same time.

Marc Jacobs Twinkle Pop Eye Sticks in "Volver" & "Frannie" |
Formulation:
The Twinkle Pop Eye Sticks have a very shimmery and creamy formulation. The two shades I have are fairly light so they aren't particularly pigmented. However, the colors are still buildable, especially "Frannie", which is described as a "snow iridescent shimmer". "Volver", on the other hand, is a "peach champagne shimmer" that's quite close to my skin tone so I get mostly shimmer.
Both these shadow pencils have a soft and melty formulation, they actually feel very cooling on the lids during application. The products are smudge-proof and crease-proof, the shimmer/color fades a tiny bit after several hours but I definitely don't mind reapplying because they feel so nice on the skin.
Overall:
If you are a fan of a simple, shimmery, all over the lid look, these are great additions to your makeup bag. The formulation glides on almost like a gel and feels very cooling on the skin and the packaging is just too cute.
