Byredo Colour Stick 3g in 505 Mesolithic is a multi-use cream colour stick from the Swedish luxury brand's make-up line, designed to be used freely across eyes, cheeks and lips. Mesolithic is a refined earthy mauve-brown — perfect for sculpting cheekbones, defining a soft smoky eye or layering as a moody, neutral lip — with a creamy texture, buildable pigment and a soft vanilla scent.
About Byredo
Byredo is a Stockholm-based luxury brand founded in 2006 by Ben Gorham, originally as a fragrance house known for compositions such as Gypsy Water and Bal d'Afrique. The brand expanded into make-up in 2020 under the artistic direction of make-up artist Isamaya Ffrench, with a deliberately art-directed approach: bold pigments, multi-use formats, and architectural metal packaging that's meant to be handled rather than hidden.
Key features
- Multi-use cream stick: use as eyeshadow, blush, contour, or lip — the same product, different placements
- Mesolithic shade: earthy muted mauve-brown — a versatile "modern neutral" for sculpting, defining and minimalist colour
- Buildable coverage: sheer with a single pass for a wash of light, intense and pigmented when layered
- Curved bullet tip: designed for fast, freehand application directly from the stick
- Silver metal casing with magnetic closure: heavy, tactile architectural packaging consistent with the rest of the Byredo make-up line
- Lightly vanilla-scented
Who it's for
Mesolithic is one of the most universally wearable shades in the Byredo Colour Stick line — a soft taupe-brown that flatters most skin tones and bridges contour, blush, smoky-eye and "your lips but better" lip looks. Particularly useful for those building a minimalist multi-use travel make-up bag, fans of the "no-make-up" aesthetic, and anyone who appreciates an earthy palette over high-shimmer or bright colour.
How to use
- For cheeks: dot lightly across the cheekbones and blend out with a fingertip or sponge for a soft contour or blush effect.
- For eyes: swipe directly across the lid and blend with a fingertip or fluffy brush before it sets — or smudge into the lash line for a soft smoky look.
- For lips: glide on as a moody-neutral lip, or layer with a balm for a softer finish.
- Combine with other Byredo Colour Sticks to contrast or build dimension across a single look.
