ColourPop Candy Man Super Shock Cheek
ColourPop Candy Man Super Shock Cheek

ColourPop Candy Man Super Shock Cheek ($8.00 for 0.15 oz.) is deep, coppery bronze with warm, red undertones and a metallic sheen. The texture was smooth, lightly wet to the touch, creamy, and seemingly blendable, but despite blending and building the color up, it looked a little patchy with some color dotting my cheeks almost like freckles. It was richly pigmented when applied with fingertips and more buildable with a brush. This shade lasted for over ten hours on me. Bobbi Brown Bronze (P, $46.00) is lighter (95% similar).

ColourPop Do Not Disturb Super Shock Cheek ($8.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a deep brown with warm, reddish undertones and a pearly sheen. It’s a darker, less shimmery version of Candy Man, but the two are quite similar applied lightly. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy, and spread easily but looked a little patchy on my skin. This shade wore well for nine hours. BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Edition #21 (LE, ) is more shimmery (95% similar). Bobbi Brown Bronze (P, $46.00) is lighter (90% similar).

Formula Overview

ColourPop Super Shock Cheek ($8.00 for 0.15 oz.) is supposed to have buildable coverage–sheerer coverage when applied with a brush and intense coverage when applied with fingertips–that is long-wearing. It is a cream-to-powder formula that has a very dense, pliable texture in the pot, so it doesn’t have the same wet, emollient consistency of traditional cream blushes–this is more spongy. The texture remains very blendable on the skin, whether using fingertips or synthetic brushes, and sets to a more powder-like consistency. The pigmentation is usually buildable from semi-sheer to mostly opaque with a more subdued sheen, even when more metallic, on the skin. I get anywhere from eight to ten hours of wear with this formula

Too dark for me, but medium to darker skin tones will rejoice, and it pairs perfectly with that DM Metallic lipstick. ColourPop does not disappoint!

I’m too fair for these, I think. So am going back to look at your recent reviews of their new cheek products. I am impressed by Colourpop’s frequent new quality offers, and these being permanent at that.

I own all 4 of the new CP highlighters. The formula of these feel different then the older ones. They seem softer and my pigmented. Did you notice any difference Christine?

Christina, I love what you do, but I sometimes can’t see the product properly being reviewed when there is so much going on. The eyeshadow is statement, the cheeks are loud, the lips are very futuristic statement (a shade I would consider for costume wear only). I find myself scrolling back up to see the arm swatch and the written review to get a better idea.
I look at some of your older reviews, and I find I can better judge a lip color because there is very little eye makeup or face makeup. Or vica versa.
I appreciate that you get a TON of makeup, and you have a creative outlet by trying out a lot of looks. You don’t have to publish this comment, it’s just something that keeps occuring to me every night when I check ur blog before I sleep (it’s a ritual). Please don’t block me! I still appreciate your site. 🙂

Thanks for the feedback! I’m sorry to have disappointed you! I got a lot of feedback that I didn’t have enough on, and while I try to plan around what I’m wearing, sometimes it does not work out that way.

Although in this instance, I thought everything coordinated so apparently that was not the case to your eye!

That’s interesting that others asked for more. I guess you just do you, and keep up the good work! (P.s. Disappointment was never an issue, I’m only disappointed when a makeup manufacturer makes a disappointing product;) )

I think the issue is doing nothing (just mascara) is too little, but I can’t just wear neutrals because my eyelids can’t handle a lot of applying/removing so whatever I am wearing photos usually ends up being what I test that day. I try to pick something to test when I photograph that will go with what I’ll be photographing for the most part, but if I have 15 lip colors and 6 cheek colors to swatch, it will not be perfect with all for sure.
