I’ve been seeing ColourPop blow up all over the place this year, so about 5 months ago I decided to order a few products just to see if it was worth all the hype! Well, it turns out I ended up LOVING their products. I initially ordered only a few things to sample the color payoff and quality. I’m always a little sketched out to make a big order for my first try, especially on products with such an amazing price point. Most of their products are all under $10, which for great quality is hard to find. I was seriously blown away by the color payoff!! That to me is most important because I don’t really mind re-applying every couple hours, but I barely had to do that. Here is my most recent haul, I’m actually addicted to their products now so I can’t wait to order more!
These are absolutely without a doubt, the best affordable matte liquid lipsticks I’ve ever tried. They’re super matte so if you like a liquid lipstick that dries completely down these are for you! While I always top mine off with a Baby Lips, the color still stays on forever. I prefer to use mine with MAC Prep + Prime lip as my base so that they don’t feel as matte as they get. The colors are seriously amazing, I love that they have a huge selection and they make color suitable for every skin tone. Another thing that’s super important for me is that I don’t find them to be streaky at all. Some liquid lipsticks don’t cover your lips with the first coat because they streak causing you to still see through to your lip. Luckily these don’t have that effect and every color I’ve tried has a smooth outcome with one layer and doesn’t streak. I ordered 7 of these Ultra Matte’s in this haul, shades below we’re swatched in natural daylight.
So these Lippie Stix are way different than the Ultra Mattes. I adore these little nuggets!! They’re so convenient to throw in your purse and I love that they’re super slim so if I want to throw it in a smaller clutch they fit in nicely. So these run in all different finishes, they have Crème, Sheer, Satin, Glossy, Matte & Pearlized. ColourPop knows the way to my heart by giving me a satin and crème lipstick that has maximum pigment which is exactly what these lippie stix are. The only complaint I have about these bad boys is that they run out faster than I wished they would, but hey for only $5 each it’s not a killer on your wallet to order two or three of your favorite shades. Also if you’re worried about using one that you like, but it’s not matte, they have a lippie primer and I noticed this actually does help the non-matte formulas stay on (you can use MAC P+P Lip Primer as well).
I love lipliners so much, and these lippie pencils are no exception. They’re creamy which I appreciate in a liner because generally a regular pencil liner pulls on my lips. They last sooo long, there isn’t a specific “hour-wear” claim on these ColourPop ones, but it seemed I only had to reapply once the whole day. I like that some of the liners have the same names as some of the lippie stix too, like Bound, Oh Snap, Tootsi etc. I wanted to give you guys some color combos too: Dazed + More Better, Tootsi + Trap, BFF + Addict, & Oh Snap + Midi/Clueless. These are just some of the ways I’ve been combining them! This swatch picture was taken with a flash because it was a little difficult in actual daylight to tell the difference between some of the shades.
I ordered this Super Shock Cheek Highlighter because Kathleen Lights raves about it. I found it super hard to apply at first, she recommended using it with a beauty blender, and when I did I found almost no product showing up on my face. Then I tried a fan brush, nothing. Finally with my trusty Morphe M501 I finally got this to show up on my cheek! It was beautiful once I actually got it on my skin. I also found that I was able to use it as a shadow color which obviously was awesome. I love any product that I can get more than one use out of.
HOkay, so I actually don’t think you guys are prepared to handle these Super Shock Shadows. I only ordered two because I hate individual shadows, I prefer a pan shadow so that I can put it in my Z Palette, but these are so worth it. This swatch literally does not even do these shadows justice. They are stunning. They are so similar to MAC’s Electric Cool line. They’re a cushion-y like formula with pieces of glitter running through the silky texture. Seriously, that’s the best way I can describe it. I didn’t notice tons of fall out when I used these but I also use a primer so be careful if you’re not priming your lids before! I definitely plan on ordering more of these ASAP. I just wish they would make more palette options, or a create your own palette option!
If you guys have any looks with these colors, tag me on instagram so I can see! @seanmarie_
