I am in love with the Tarte Quick Stick Shadow & Liner! It is the only product, that I am aware of, that can apply an eye shadow and an eye liner in seconds. Thirty seconds to be exact. As a result, you have a single eyeshadow shade look, with a coordinated eye liner . It’s your one and done look, it is the quickest way to apply makeup to your eyes! The dual-ended pen is goof-proof, and can be a lifesaver-especially when you are in a hurry. I’ve been using my stick since last summer, and I am impressed. Best of all, the shadow and liner are waterproof, and they won’t come off until you take them off.!
You can find the Tarte Waterproof Quick Sticks at Sephora, Ulta, QVC, Macys, and on the Tarte Cosmetics Website.The Waterproof Quick Stick eyeshadow (0.8g / 0.0282 oz.) liner (0.2g / 0.007 oz) costs $26.
The outer carton is recyclable.The dual-ended plastic stick is in the shape of a pen, with one side thicker, and it thin off at the top. 
There are lids covering both products. The thicker rounded lid is on the end where the eyeshadow is. The other end, where the lid tapers to a point, is where the eyeliner is. Each lid is easy to pull off. The neck on both ends turns to push up and bring down the eyeliner, and the eyeshadow.
The Waterproof formula for both the shadow and liner is velvety-smooth. The Quick Stick has a comfort glide gel liner tip that glides on without pulling, tugging,or skipping. Waterproof, the formula won’t crease,transfer or smudge. The color is richly pigmented. Also, the formula is buildable, although you get great color payoff with one swipe. The formula includes Amazonian Clay, which delivers better, and longer true wear. Also, mineral pigments are included to soften and soothe your eyelids. Finally, vitamin E , a natural preservative, also acts as an antioxidant and an emollient.
The formula is Cruelty Free, Paraben-Free, Mineral Oil Free,Phthalates, Triclosan,Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, and Gluten Free.

Last Summer I received one of the sticks in one of my monthly subscription boxes. I took it with me to the beach, and used it when I went on the beach, and when I went out to dinner at night. Finally, when I came home after the summer, I ordered other sticks in other shades.They are so travel worthy, you won’t be sorry if you take one with you the next time you take a trip, instead of one of your ten shade palettes that you probably won’t bother wearing, The Quick stick won’t take up any space! And, because it is waterproof- it’s even more desirable. Plus, it has lid-loving ingredients that are actually good for your lids.
