To stick or not to stick?
It seems 2011 was definitely the year for stick on Make-up and if your a fan of the quick and easy products out there, we can only imagine they'll be new ranges coming thick and fast this year. It seems that nobody's bored of it yet, so if your a stick on virgin, its time to get practicing!
The Dior 'Velvet eyes' stick on eyeliners could be the end of your eyeliner flick nightmares. They come at a slightly outrageous price of £47 per box of 4 (available at Selfridges) but they are reusable, so price per wear could be more acceptable. A tip when using these is to line your eyes first with a liquid or gel liner very close to the root of your eyelashes. This will stop there being any visible gap between the liner and your eye.
Another mover and shaker of the stick on Make-up last year was 'Violent lips' temporary lip tattoos (£10 per pair on asos.com) Although they seem to be used in the Celebrity and editorial world much more than real life, they are a great way to spice up your Make-up. The patterned range are more tricky to evenly apply but they are much more of a statement than the plain glitter. If you're going to go through the work of applying them well, then why not go all out with a statement pair!
If your not ready to pay £10 a pop for one pair, there are also some cheaper equivalents out there such as a set of 10 patterns for £15 by 'Temporary LIP tattoos' on amazon.co.uk.
So... new year, not so new craze. Are you a sticker?
