Colourpop Eyeshadows NR.2



  I've decided to take advantage of the free international shipping promotion and get a few more shades of colourpop eyeshadows, since I liked them so much the last time. Now they have even more super shock eyeshadow shades and pressed eyeshadows too!




   Kathleenlights shade, I ended up not using and putting it up for sale.



  The perfect nude base "Hear me out"


I got this for my sister, since she said she was looking everywhere for this type of eyeshadow



Telepathy is amazing gold shade with a green tint to it


Eye candy is perfect cool pink tone glitter shade




  I'm not gonna lie, I love the shades, but I feel like I've fallen out of love with super shock eyeshadow formula, because for me it lacks lasting power. It is a bit creamy and it travels on my lid into tiny little creases, way faster than usual pressed shadows.

 
 





  This is how Two much look on my eye. Is is build-able, but comes out a bit patchy.


  Since I didn't have any empty magnetic palettes or other eyeshadow pans to create a custom one yet, I got this weird little travel palette online. *Objects in the picture are much cheaper than they appear*


I had hard time with swatches, eventually I just used a bit of primer


  I think this is a good representation of what these shades look like. Two much is very unique, because even though it's matte burgundy it has little gold glitters in it. And Going steady is one of the best dark red / burgundy shades I own. I feel like with a dark red base (example: NYX Rust pencil) it would be unbeatable and the most opaque.


  In conclusion I'd like to say that this was a good haul. I got 6 eyeshadow for 20$ (free international shipping and 3 eyeshadows for the price of two promotion). It was a great value. Now I'm impatiently waiting until colourpop starts to sell in europe or offer free shipping again, because I have no time to deal with customs. If I had to choose I'd say that Going Steady and Telepathy were my favorites from this haul.

P.S. EDIT: I'm posting the reviews and hauls up to a year later after I've got the products, so in some cases they might be out of stock, discontinued or most likely the offer on them has ended. But this time it's a different case completely. My opinion about the eyshadows has changed. I still think that  supershock formula should not be worn alone, but the pressed eyeshadow has won me over, especially the shade "Going steady". I have recently went on a short vacation and that was one of the 3 eyeshadow shades I decided to take with me. No regrets.
