Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Moonlight

Hello!!! A few weeks ago when I did a post on some makeup brands that I've never tried and my friend Lauren from Will Sing for Makeup was sweet enough to send me some goodies from Laura Mercier. She sent me a delux size of the foundation primer and a caviar stick in the color Moonlight. Thank you so much Lauren for sending me these!

was super excited because this caviar stick is beyond gorgoues, which brings me to today's post. I mentioned this in my favorites post, but it's so pretty that I thought it deserved a post on its own. 


The description on Laura Mercier's website claims these caviar sticks to be creamy, long wearing, transfer free, won't crease, blends easily, and have rich color payoff. 

Moonlight is described as a metallic pewter color. This color is so beautiful and makes a great lid color, which is what I have been using it for, but I can see it being one of those 'one wash wonder' colors that you can blend into the crease a little for a fast and easy eye look. 

Here I am wearing moonlight all over my lid, and I used some matte colors from the Tartelette palette in my crease. This is the makeup I was wearing in my October favorites video and it's been my everyday eye look for the past two weeks. 

My overall thoughts-
-Since this was in my monthly favorites, you can guess that I love this. 
-The color is gorgoues and I can 100% agree with all the claims on the website. 
-This is definitely budge proof and it doesn't crease at all. The color payoff is amazing and definitely rich. 
-Unlike a lot of shadow sticks or cream shadows I've tried, this one you do not have to set with a powder shadow afterwards. Which goes with the transfer free claims. 

Overall I highligly recommend these and I I will definitely be checking more out at the sephora VIB sale this weekend!

Have you tried any of these Caviar Sticks before? 

Extras-
-hubby got me a new camera to film my YouTube videos with and I used it for the first time in my October favorites videos. It has a view finder so filming is a lot easier now! I also thought it picked up lighting better and I didn't look so pale and washed out (aka why does my blush/bronzer disappear in camera??) what did you guys think?
-I have some videos planned to film next week including a makeup tutorial, my favorite natural beauty products, and  haul from the speohra VIB sale!
