I think both are great for staying power. It just depends on what you will feel more adapt in using & like as far texture.
So, I have both. I couldn't decide. I can use one or the other alone. Sometimes, I use both. It just depends on what look I want and how much time I want to put into achieving a certain look.
I really like both products. I have several colors of the shade sticks too. The color shade sticks really make eyeshadow colors intensify.
