ColourPop Good as Gold Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches
Good as Gold
ColourPop Good as Gold 12-Pan Pressed Powder Shadow Palette ($18.00 for 0.36 oz.) is a new, gold-themed palette featuring four matte shades, two Pressed Glitters, and the remaining shades were shimmers.
I believe that 24K is a Super Shock Shadow (cream-to-powder formula) based on performance and feel. Aside from the glitters, the eyeshadows performed fairly well; they were pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing with two mattes having a slightly thinner/firmer press but applied without difficulty. One shimmer, Au Team, had a very different texture than we’ve seen from ColourPop shimmers; it was quite heavy, thick, and only worked well with fingertips.

State of Mine
State of Mine is a soft, muted peach with warm undertones and a matte finish. The consistency was thinner and firmer in the pan, so while there was no powderiness, I had to use a heavier hand to pick up an even amount of product. It had good color coverage that wore nicely 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.

24K
24K is a light gold with strong, warm undertones and a metallic finish. It felt like a Super Shock Shadow to me; it was emollient, a little squishy, and had a thin, more powder-like feel once it came into contact with my skin. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer that applied well to bare skin. It stayed on nicely for 10 hours without fading or creasing on me.

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.07 oz. - $85.71 Per Ounce
ColourPop Super Shock Shadow is a cream-based formula that comes in a multitude of shades and finishes. The more metallic shades have the most slip to them (they have a “wetter” feel), while the more matte ones have a firmer, more clay-like consistency. Almost every shade I’ve tried from ColourPop has been exceptionally long-wearing (10+ hours of wear, usually there until I remove, even 14 hours later). The pigmentation can vary from shade to shade, but the average shade is quite pigmented.
From feedback I’ve seen from readers, many love them but some don’t like them at all. They aren’t a traditional cream eyeshadow, as they are denser (more sponge-like), and they apply best with flat, firm, synthetic brushes (I like the MAC 242 and 249) for me. The brand recommends using fingers for the most pigmented application, but I’ve only felt that fingers were necessary on a few shades (usually the super glittery ones).
The more matte shades can be on the drier side and vary from medium to opaque in coverage, though they're often buildable. They can be a little hard to diffuse the edges of, though some are lovely to work with.
The more glittery shades have been the weakest to me, as they can be sheerer or harder to apply. Sometimes, they are more pigmented and work like the other finishes in the formula, but often, they are sheerer and only function well patted on top of more pigmented eyeshadows to add glitter. They do, however, tend to have little fallout over time with the occasional shade having a more moderate amount of fallout (but still less fallout than most powder eyeshadows with glitter).

Gilded
Gilded is a bright, light gold with moderate, warm yellow undertones and flecks of green-gold glitter. It came with a warning that it wasn’t for use on the eyes, and based on the color and texture, I would guess it is for the actual glitter in it. The texture felt lightly creamy, dense and a little thicker, which made it easier to work with using fingertips, as that seemed to soften and help spread the product over the skin and yielding a more even result. Brushes tended to pick up the product unevenly and didn’t disperse it as well. There was some fallout after eight hours of wear.

Au Team
Au Team is a medium, golden copper with flecks of gold micro-glitter over a metallic finish. The texture was incredibly dense, thick, and almost like a heavy cream, though I’m not certain it was an actual cream (it lacked the squishy, emollient feel that I’d expect of a Super Shock).
The shade did not apply well with brushes at all (dry or damp), but it went on decently with fingertips when pressed and gently pushed against the lid. It had semi-opaque coverage when applied with fingertips (but more semi-sheer, uneven coverage with a brush, which is what the rating is based on). It stayed on well for eight hours but had light fallout over time.

Golden Touch
Golden Touch is a deep gold with strong, warm orange undertones paired with a ton of small, gold glitter. It had a more textured feel to it by touch due to the amount of glitter in it, and this shade was listed as not to be used on the eye area. The pigmentation was opaque as the base color gave it a lot more intensity, but the shade itself was packed to the brim with glitter pieces. It applied fairly evenly with brushes but was better with a fingertip, as this gave better control and management over fallout. It lasted well for eight hours for the most part, but there was some fallout over time.

Easily duped in my stash, 2 pressed glitter shadows and a D rated shimmer make this one a no-go for me. Hard pass.
Well, this could have been stunning, but with all the pressed glitter and problems with the formula, it is not. Beautiful eye look Christine.
Boy, could I make a big fat mess with this one! When N1 was a disaster and Monarch was pretty good, and gold is not-so-hot, this would be the ultimate golden muddy disaster, the glitters and poor shimmer notwithstanding. Sometimes you just know better.
I was eyeing this palette but will skip. Don’t like having not-safe-for-eye area shades in a palette, and I think some of the glittery shades will be fallout city for me on my oily, hooded lid 🙁 Thanks for saving me money!
Meh. I’m not a big fan of yellow-leaning colors on my face, and the couple shades I do like in this palette are easily duped in my collection.
Given shades, tone, (way to warm), and poor performance, this is an easy pass for me. Had everything been stellar this would have worked nicely for my daughter but she doesn’t care for the CP pressed shadow formula and for the same reason as she stopped using ABH shadows, just too much fallout and kick up in the pan. She is a little OCD and likes her makeup palettes to look pristine and kick up in the pan messes with the aesthetic!
Nope. I love gold- I never get tired of gold and variance of golds. I just don’t want to support plastic glitter. It’s a physical and environmental hazard and just bad to many living things in this world- it’s unethical.
Picked this up, and it’s my favorite palette of 2019. Finally a decent dupe for UD Honey and imo better. I have light to medium skintone with yellow undertone, and love this palette. This would be perfect if it was the ABH formula! But I’ll settle for this for now… I do find CP to take a bit more blending than ABH to get a natural look. But I can’t complain for that pricepoint!
Looking at colourpop’s website it seems like your palette has Diggin’ U and Bold Rush switched.
