Chubby in the Nude Foundation Stick

The newest edition to the Clinique chubby stick collection makes the collection officially complete. Introducing the foundation stick and while I am extremely picky about foundation (if you've been around these parts before, you know this) I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by these Clinique sticks. This is the first foundation stick that's truly worked for my skin. Let me explain.
It's quick and easy to apply, no matter how experienced or inexperienced you are with makeup. The packaging makes it convenient and portable so if you're running late in the morning, you can take this along with you and apply in the car. It's creamy, feels moisturizing on the skin while having a lightweight feel. It's not cakey, it's buildable so whether you're looking for light, medium or full coverage, you can certainly work your way there.  It's natural and blends beautifully into your skin to give that perfect complexion and drumroll please... it doesn't sit on the skin.  Now it's super easy to rock that no makeup makeup look. The biggest selling point for me is that while it is creamy, it's not going to make oilier skin types look like discoballs after two hours, which is a plus and always makes for a good day. This is truly a no mess, no fuss foundation perfect for summer. Makes that natural beauty much easier.

In the image above, I am showing you the natural state of the foundation color on the left. On the right, I whitened the lines so you can actually see how I applied the foundation. One of the coolest things about these is how much fun you can have. I remember loving to doodle as a kid and now I can doodle while doing my makeup. Even better is that it's impossible to mess up this doodle. Just doodle a design on your skin and pat the product in when you're done. You really cannot mess this up so have fun with it. Throughout my doodle, I drew a tick tock design which you'll see more prominently in that right image above. This design includes one vertical line on my forehead, one horizontal line on each cheek and one vertical line on my chin. Overall, just doing these four lines gave me medium coverage.

In terms of highlighting, I placed three lines (in the shape of whiskers) on each cheek to brighten my under eye area. In the image above, you can see the product lightly on the right side of my face (your left) and then the left side of my face (your right) is blended in. It catches the light in just the the right way and I adore how this brightens my entire complexion. 

What's really nice about these sticks is the creaminess and the fact that you can use your fingers. Goodbye 32846347647 brushes! Just absolutely make sure you use clean fingers so wash your hands before touching your face. Gotta keep that bacteria off yo face so you don't break out!

-------------------------------------- This retails for $24 per foundation stick. Again I'm rocking the shade 'intense ivory' and it really paired nicely with my natural skin. I'll be sure to use darker shades after I get tan this summer ;) Which shade of the chubby foundation stick will you be grabbing?
