Cover-up in a stick!
I designed this product to be a super fast and easy way to apply on top of blemishes such as pimples, sun spots, dark circles, rosacea, broken capillaries and any unwanted tones on your face and neck.
No need to call it makeup, anyone can use it. The formula is matte and is undetectable once lightly blended with a tap-like motion on skin.
Swivel the product directly onto your blemish or use a clean finger directly on the stick then blend over the areas in need. You will be amazed with the lasting quality and ease of use.

What Spot Sticks look nice on fair skin?
- Shades 1-3 are great for paler skin tones! You can check out our color range and match it to your undertones HERE.
Do they hide dark spots on more mature skin?
- Yes! I've covered them on myself and on friends of mine. I've been successful in covering light to medium dark spots on mature skin. I highly recommend using 04 or 05 as the neutralizer first then going over it with your shade.
Can you use it as contour, does it blend in easily?
- I didn't design it as a contour, but if you are feeling artistic, you can definitely find a way to wear them anywhere on your face.
Should it be applied locally or on the entire face?
- It's all in the name: Spot Stick. It’s meant to be used sparsely, only in areas you need. You can layer it, & the more you layer, the more coverage you get.
What was your inspiration behind launching Spot Sticks?
- I wanted to make something that was gender friendly for different skin types in clean beauty. I wanted it to address small blemishes. It's a very functional, practical design as its the size of a pimple with a flat, small circumference. You lean into things that feel like they hit the spot correctly - no pun intended.
How long does it last?
Is the thickness similar to foundation or is it between foundation and concealer?
- It's a cream stick that's designed very dry (intentionally) with a matte finish. We didn't add any iridescence or shine, so it won’t bring attention to things that you want to cover up. The matte finish ensures it gets erased.
Should I get multiple shades for different areas of the face?
- Yes, because you tonally change! My recommendation is to buy yourself a lighter shade, a neutralizer and a darker shade because then you can spot match different parts of your face. Your face isn't all one tone and that's why foundation can often look fake or mismatched.
What is spot basing?
- So that’s a funny story. I’ve been a professional makeup artist for a decade, and sometimes when you’re given instructions on a photo shoot, they’ll say, “we don’t want a lot of foundation.” So there’s this kind of like this little code name. It’s almost just code for “please don’t do a heavy base. We want you to just spot base.” Spot base simply means only cover the areas you need in order to make the skin look like it belongs to the person who owns it. It’s essentially a cliff note for “don’t do full foundation, let’s just do the spot.” As it turns out, I was under the impression that everyone knew what spot basing was, but there are a lot of people, including some makeup artists, friends of mine, who don’t use the phrase. So maybe I could actually take full credit for that.
Why is spot basing such a popular technique?
- Spot basing is perfect if you are going for a more natural look and don’t want or need a full face of foundation. It’s a great technique if you have a pimple, a sunspot, a blemish, under-eye circles or just one area of rosacea, and just want to match the rest of your skin and only cover that area up and blend.
What is the Spot Stick?
- The Spot Stick isn’t just a concealer, it’s matte coverage wherever you need it. It’s kind of just the code word for only covering up where needed and leaving the rest of your skin looking natural. It’s easy-blending, nourishes irritated skin, and blurs blemishes away—no foundation necessary!
Why is it a great product for everyone?
- I’d really be honored to have people think of this for all genders. I really want everyone - especially men - to be comfortable wearing this and not think about it like makeup.
How do you apply Spot Stick?
- Warm it up on your finger and tap it over the area that you need coverage, or you could directly swivel it on. I designed this to be the average size of a pimple with a flat circumference, so if you twist it up, and you just put it on the pimple, or on the area that might need it, it will just twist directly over that area. It will make the perfect circle. From there, you just blend and dab.
What is special about the formula?
- My intention with this formula was to make it with the cream and the powder built into one. Spot Stick was designed to leave a matte finish that adheres to your skin beautifully. It’s a little bit on the drier side so if you’re using it under your eyes, you want to put a light moisturizer down first if you have dry to normal skin. If you have oily skin, you can skip that step.
