Super pigmented

I got this in Bill, which is a purple/mauve sort of color. When I bought this online I thought it'd be quite a big bigger but the pan is actually very shallow despite the deceptively deep packaging.

The texture of this makes me think of those cream to powder blushes which feel bouncy to apply but then dries to a powdery finish. Because of its texture, it's insanely pigmented especially when packed on with my finger. It also glides on very smooth when I use my finger to spread it out. I don't think it works as well with a brush because it sort of squishes around a bit, and has a tendency to stick to the hairs of the brush.

The wear not as long lasting as some of my other shadows, perhaps due to its unique formulation. And I do notice patchiness and creasing after a while even with primer on. But for an everyday lid color this isn't too bad.

I probably won't buy more of these simply because the shipping isn't worth it unless I get a bulk.

ColorPOP!

This eye shadows are changing the game! First, can we just talk about the fact that they are under $10 and pack some serious pigment?! Seriously I may have a problem....I can't stop buying them! Check 'em out, they have a color for everyone and so many to choose from. Not to mention the names are cute AF

Tips: Make sure you leave the lid on tight when finished or they tend to dry out. Work better with a wet synthetic brush or good ole finger tips :)

Affordable and insanely pigmented!

These super shock shadows are without a doubt the best affordable eye shadows on the market. There is such an extensive colour range which all have an incredible pigment. I use these products all the time and cannot wait to buy more. As we are in NZ, I am so happy that we can finally get the products sent here - as it isn't hard for me to spend $50 USD as I could easily add everything to my basket. Please try these eye shadows if you haven't!! You haven't lived until you've tried Colour Pop :)

Tips: Try these out!!

All the sparkle!!

I got the Birthday Cake super shock shadow as a gift with my last ColourPop order and I love it!! It isn't an everyday wear eyeshadow for me because of the crazy amount of sparkle. This shadow is a rose gold leaning towards a pink. It is very pigmented and looks chock-full of glitter. Although it has tonnes of sparkle it is also very soft and applies and blends really well - it's almost creamy in texture. It comes in a white round container with a screw on lid, and you get quite a bit more product that the normal ColourPop pressed powder - however given it's not pressed, it does get used faster.

ColourPop Super Shock Shadow

These little beauties come in a white pottle with clear plastic on the lid so you can see which colour you are grabbing. There are so many colours in this range, you just cant stop at one.

I tried applying with all types of brushes but in the end my pinky finger did the best job. I did find there was a bit of fallout so that was a bit annoying, however you do get that with lots of othe brands so its not a big deal really. These are really pigmented and stay on for the day without any bother. I do use a primer so I am not too sure if that makes a difference or not.

Tips: Always remember to keep the lid closed tightly to avoid drying or spillage.

Best shadow I’ve found for sensitive skin

I have psoriasis on my eyelids so finding good shadows has been a real challenge. I tried super shock from word of mouth not really holding out much hope but at the great price it was worth a try. First off trying to choose any colours from the extensive range is so hard! They just have the best selection and it’s constantly being updated. I’ve found the lasting power of these shadows is amazing, they stay put all day looking as good at the end of the day as the start. They don’t cause my skin to react at all which is about the only shadow so far I’ve found that doesn’t. I’ve bought so many of these now and I don’t see myself using any other brand.

Tips: I do a web search on the colours I’m thinking of buying to see different pics and get a better idea of the true colour.

Hard to work with

I love the range of colours and finishes (except the matte - avoid!), but these are so hard to work with! I'm not opposed to applying these with my finger (which is pretty much the only way to use these) but I can't blend them very well with just my finger. I only use these if I'm just using one or two colours. That being said, they are very pigmented and creamy. Just a shame I can't blend nicely with a brush.

Tips: Apply with your finger. Avoid the matte shades

Very unique

I have never come across eyeshadows like these before, but I currently own about 15 of the shades and I really like most of them.

The packaging is quite nice, although it is a bit big compared to how much shadow you actually get. They don't have a very noticeable scent, and the texture is quite creamy.

A few of the lighter shades I own are not as opaque as I think they are supposed to be, but the darker colours are incredibly pigmented. I do have a bit of trouble blending some of the darker shades, they definitely take a bit more work than other brands, but it is manageable.

They last quite a while when they're on, although I have noticed a bit of transferring after wearing them for a full day. This is mostly unavoidable with eyeshadow primer in my experience. Overall, I definitely recommend these, especially as they're so cheap.

So Quiche, Weenie and Cricket

I bought a couple of these online off a Facebook make up group I heard how buttery and creamy they are I also watched you tube videos about them. I bought 3. Each came in its own individual container but don't be fooled the pan isn't as deep as the container in fact it is just like a regular cosmetic pan. The shadows do have a silky kind of texture but it isn't as smooth as say a silicone primer. All mine were shimmer finish or metallic I got Weenie, Cricket and So Quiche. I googled a lot of swatches and I really like duo chrome or multi chrome colour shifting colours. So Quiche is nice it is like an almost green brown ish gold colour but what makes the wow factor is the gourgeous gold and pretty pink glitter in it which also givens hints of silver sparkle too. This is the one I thought was a duo chrome but it isn't really although the pink glitter made it seem like it online. Unfortunately this shadow must of been on its last run when I got it as it dried out very very quickly I didn't leave the lid off either. The glitter seemed to stay on my finger not apply too wet to my eye then when it did I got a lot of glitter fall out under my eyes and on my cheeks. Cricket is similar to So Quiche but without the pink glitter and the colour is more a purpley / mauvey brown. This one still has some of the creamy texture to it which I think helps puck up & transfer the glitter better on to the eyelid. Weenie was a nice metallic orange brown copper shade which would look gourgeous on any eye shade and must of been the newest one because it was the most creamy/least dry of all. I already have similar shade to it though so I passed it on. Since purchasing these & finding out they are a cream that dry out I have been put off buying more because I already have a big collection of eye shadows and I just don't know how long the colour pops would last before drying out & loosing their creamy texture. That aside this brad makes gourgeous glittering metallic creamy shadows and they seem to be very collectable. They do have a rather yucky chemical smell to them though. I really like the pallete I have from this brand and am curious to try more of Colour Pop products. The super shock shadows are worth a try if you want some sparkling easy quick application with a nice wet metallic look just be aware they may dry out quickly making them crumble and hard to use dry.

Skip the mattes

The super shock formula is like no other. It's really hard to explain if you've never used it before. Feels almost damp and spongy. The metallics and glitters etc apply beautifully with a finger. So stunning and pigmented. Applying them with a brush gets little colour pay off and can be a little patchy. So I would suggest skip the mattes and just get the finishes you'd apply with your finger.

Tips: Apply with a finger!
