Beauty editor and writer Krista DeMaio introduces us to the latest skin care innovation: Sticks that make packing and applying a breeze.
Ilia Skin Rewind Blurring Foundation and Concealer Complexion Stick
Sticking with makeup, these are foundation sticks that are also multitasking because you can use them as a concealer wherever you need them. Or apply all over as a foundation. Swipe it in the center of your face and then use a brush to blend it out. There are 42 shades in all.
$48, Sephora
Thrive Triple Threat Color Sticks
These cream-colored sticks come in 23 different shades and can be used as blush, highlighter, or bronzer. Some of them can even be used on your eyelids.
INKEY List Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Stick
This looks like a deodorant, but it’s a glycolic acid stick that helps loosen dead skin. You can swipe it directly on the skin in problem areas. It’s great for those bumps on the back of the arms, which are really from a buildup of dead skin, ingrown hairs, or areas like elbows. Use it 2-3 times a week, building up to daily if necessary.
$18, Sephora
Onyx Cracked Heel Stick: Moisturizing Heel Stick
Foot creams and ointments are usually thick, sometimes greasy, and can be messy. In stick form, you can swipe it on your feet and never have to touch the ointment! This one contains shea butter and coconut oil and has a recommendation from the American Diabetes Association.
$8.99, Walmart
Red by Kiss Edge Fixer 24 Hour Max Hold Hair Wax Stick
Hair wax in stick form is an easy way to tame flyways and smooth edges. It gives long-lasting smoothing without stiffness or stickiness. And it’s easy to throw in your bag.
$6.99, Ivyusa.com
