Felicity

ColourPop Felicity Super Shock Cheek (Highlighter) ($8.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a soft, translucent peach with a glittery mix of pink, gold, and copper. It has a glitter finish, which has larger particle sparkle/shimmer and a sheer base (more coverage in terms of shimmer/sparkle). The texturew was soft and spongy to the touch with moderate slip that it felt a little “wet,” but as soon as I started to pat it onto my cheeks, it felt more like a powder than a cream.

There was a moderate amount of glitter/shimmer on my skin, and I felt like it was a product that definitely was prettier in person as the light reflected and danced with the sparkles than it did in still photos. I would only recommend it for someone who loves glittery highlighters, though, and it is one that is particularly good when layered over a richer blush/bronzer color. It wore well for nine and a half hours with only slight glitter migration over time.

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.
