The formula is supposed to be buildable, blendable, and have a matte finish. They had a very smooth, creamy consistency with moderate slip that made it easy to pick up with fingertips or a brush for application. It took about 30 seconds for it to dry down to a more semi-matte or natural-matte finish, but they never seemed fully matte or fully dried down for me.
The pigmentation was medium and buildable and easy to blend out on bare skin and on top of base products without lifting them up. I found the sculpting sticks slightly more blendable over base products than the brand’s bronzers, which have a similar formula otherwise. The cream contours lasted around seven to eight hours on me before fading visibly.
As a note, I’m not overly familiar with Milk Makeup as a brand, but I know that if you purchased any of their sticks a few years ago, be prepared for a much smaller size in current offerings. It’s likely that for most people there’s more than enough product before it’ll go bad, but they definitely used to give you more for your money! I think the physical product size is small enough that it does make it more fiddly to use and not as ergonomic as it could be.
