ColourPop Avatar The Last Airbender 12-Pan Pressed Powder Shadow Palette ($14.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a new, limited edition 12-pan palette that is divided into four rows (water, earth, fire, and air). The quality was comparable with past palettes from the brand; pigmented, blendable, and longer-wearing with a few shades being a little powdery or prone to fallout but nothing major.

Water Tribe

Water Tribe is a pale lavender with an iridescent sheen. It had sheerer, more buildable coverage that was best applied with a fingertip to avoid fallout and ensure evenness of coverage due to the texture being a bit thin and powdery. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview

$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce

The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing” and “adheres easily to the eyes.” Most of the shades have semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation that applies well to bare skin, blends out without issue, and lasts for seven to eight hours.

The matte eyeshadows tend to be a little more powdery, though soft and finely-milled, in the pan, while the shimmers have a creamier, dense consistency. Occasionally, the more sparkly or metallic shades apply better with fingertips or a dampened brush.

Moon Spirit

Moon Spirit is a darker, cooler lavender base with iridescent, pale blue sparkle and shine. It was actually a more unique shade because it had quite a deep base but was also rather cool-toned. It had opaque pigmentation with a smooth, lightly emollient texture that picked up well with a dry brush. This shade wore well for eight hours on me before fading visibly.

Ice Shield

Ice Shield is a faded, medium-dark periwinkle blue with strong, cool undertones and a matte finish. It had a moderately powdery texture that was thinner and more prone to sheering out than other matte shades in the palette. It had medium coverage that was more buildable and easier to work with over a primer. It lasted well for eight hours on me.

Comet

Comet is a vivid, neon red with subtle, cool undertones and a matte finish. It was richly pigmented with a soft, blendable texture that wasn’t prone to sheering out. It wore well for eight and a half hours and left a stain behind.

Formula Overview

$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce

The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing." The way the Pressed Pigments differ is that they're not intended for usage on the immediate eye area.

The majority of the shades are semi-opaque to opaque in coverage, blend out fairly well, and can sometimes be a bit drier/more powdery compared to typical matte shades. They often wear eight to nine hours on me before fading, but many shades in the Pressed Pigment family leave some staining behind.

Browse all of our ColourPop Pressed Powder Pigment swatches.

NOTICE: All products categorized under "Pigment" carry a warning in the US that the product is "not intended for use in the immediate eye area." Brands in the US typically market these products as "Pigments" (instead of "Eyeshadow"), and there is often a warning on the back of packaging or the label. The product includes color additives that are not approved for usage on the eyes per the FDA. Some color additives in "Pigments" have no usage restrictions in the EU, per CosIng, and can be used on the eyes. We recommend checking ingredients to confirm current safety assessment/restrictions: FDA/CosIng.

The second and fourth columns are just total “no go zones” for me.

Wednesday, I actually have a dupe for Moon Spirit in a Huda palette. I never use the shade (which probably explains why so little of this palette would get any use from me) and if it were easier to dig it out, I’d send it along to you, via Canada Post!!!!

Christina Avatar

Which palette is this? I don’t have an extensive Huda collection, but I don’t recall any of my palettes having a similar shade. I’m loving Moon Spirit as well!

miss.mercurial Avatar

AtLA is one of my favorite intellectual properties out there, hands down, but I won’t be buying this collection. Not unique enough to warrant it and the packaging feels hamfisted (I think they could’ve gone with a much more elegant/in-universe look rather than just slapping the characters on everything and calling it a day).
Also, it is a CRIME that there isn’t a truer green named “My Cabbages!”.

We try to approve comments within 24 hours (and reply to them within 72 hours) but can sometimes get behind and appreciate your patience! 🙂 If you have general feedback, product review requests, off-topic questions, or need technical support, please contact us directly. Thank you for your patience!
