Everybody's Got a Weakness

ColourPop Everybody’s Got a Weakness Super Shock Cheek (Highlighter) ($8.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a light-medium, yellowed peach base with pink-to-violet shifting micro-sparkle and pearl. It had a smooth, lightly emollient texture–wet to the touch and very creamy–but thin and quick to feel powder-like once it came into contact with my skin. It had buildable pigmentation from sheer to mostly opaque when applied with a brush and more medium to opaque coverage when applied with fingertips. The highlighter applied evenly and blended out easily along the edges. It wore well for nine and a half hours on me before fading slightly.

Formula Overview

$10.00/0.15 oz. - $66.67 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "buildable" coverage and can be applied with fingertips (which will yield "higher coverage") or a brush (for sheerer coverage). It's a cream-based product that has a subtle, "wet" feel to it but never has the thickness of a true cream-based blush.

It goes on with the smoothness of a cream formulation but diffuses and blends (without lifting up one's base) more like a powder product. The product sets to a powder finish, so the product won't slide around during the day.

On me, the wear tends to be between eight and 10 hours. Most shades have medium, buildable pigmentation with some being semi-opaque to opaque on occasion. They are typically blendable, easy to use, and long-wearing.
