ColourPop In a Trance Palette Review & Swatches
In a Trance
ColourPop In a Trance 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($12.00 for 0.36 oz.) is a new, pastel-themed palette with a mix of blues and lavenders. It contained five (mostly) matte shades, three shimmer shades, and one pressed glitter shade. The mattes performed better than I expected; they were pigmented, though lightly to moderately powdery, blendable, and had decent wear. The shimmers were more of a mixed bag, and I have been finding that ColourPop’s pushed more toward drier, more loosely-pressed shimmers that don’t work as well with dry brushes as past shades have.

Clarity
Clarity is pale white base with iridescent blue pearl that gave it a pearly sheen. It had medium coverage, which did not build up well, and it seemed to have the Super Shock formula (cream-to-powder eyeshadow). The texture felt lightly emollient, almost wet to the touch, but it applied unevenly and had a tendency to look patchy. I tried applying it with a flat brush as well as fingertips but found both methods disappointing–fingers were “best.” The color stayed in place for 10 hours without creasing, though.

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).

Mind's Eye
Mind’s Eye is a medium lavender with subtle, warm undertones and warmer, golden shimmer that gave it a nearly metallic finish. The eyeshadow had nearly opaque color payoff in a single layer, which applied evenly and blended out with ease, though there was light fallout during initial application. The texture was soft, more loosely-pressed with some excess that kicked up in the pan if I didn’t use it a lighter hand with the product. This shade lasted well for eight hours before showing signs of fading.

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.

Daydream Bby
Daydream Bby is a bright, cotton candy pink with cooler, blue undertones and a mostly matte finish, though there a few sparkles strewn throughout. I didn’t feel like most of the sparkles translated onto my eye area, though. The texture was soft, somewhat powdery but not prone to fallout and didn’t sheer out too readily, but it was blendable along the edges. It had opaque pigmentation that stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

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.

It had medium, buildable coverage that wore well for seven and a half hours before fading noticeably.

All Aura Again
All Aura Again has a clear base packed with small and medium-sized, multi-color glitter particles that shifted from warmer, gold, orange, and purple to almost lavender and green. It had a semi-sheer amount of coverage (in the form of glitter) that dispersed and spread easily across my skin. It had a more adhesive formula, as there was minimal migration over an eight-hour time period, but it did come with a warning that it was not intended for the eye area (and it contains plastic glitter).

Crown Chakra
Crown Chakra is a light-medium pink with subtle, cool undertones and a frosted finish. It had good color coverage in a single layer, but the texture was slightly drier and more loosely-pressed in the pan so it had light fallout. It applied more evenly and smoothly to the lid with a fingertip than with a dry or dampened brush. It lasted well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Transcend Dance
Transcend Dance is a bright, light-medium sky blue with cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. There were those faint sparkles strewn throughout the product, which didn’t add a lot to the actual application as they seemed to disappear. The consistency was moderately powdery, which yielded more semi-opaque coverage and light fallout. I was able to build up the color to mostly opaque coverage with a second layer. It stayed on nicely for seven and a half hours before fading visibly.

ColourPop Uplevel Pressed Powder Pigment
Since I already know that these sorts of icy pastel tones, especially the blues, would look awful on me, I’m giving this a hard pass. I imagine this would be ash city on me.
But hey, it could work for a 60’s retro costume look!
Before the reviews I was almost certain I would get one if not all of these. Now I am (thankfully) more restrained in my enthusiasm. This one in particular I think I could satisfactorily dupe many shades with Blue Moon and other parts of my collection, potentially with the exception of Uplevel.
This is so gorgeous and right up my alley! :o)
I wish ColourPop would just sell the plastic glitter as singles. For me, there are more cons than pros to using them, and I’ve passed on all the palettes that contain one. It might be time for me to switch my eyeshadow habit to Sydney Grace…
Sydney Grace’s eyeshadows are stunning – absolutely top notch quality. Once you get yourself a Z palette (or something like it) you can buy just the shades you love. Christine has reviewed most of them and they are worth it.
genevieve, i wanted to ask you if you had ever tried klara? i seem to understand you’re in australia, and klara is an australian brand. i have seen some here in our tj maxx and marshalls… but there are two palettes they have i cannot find here. what do you think / know of them?
I love this palette but since I have been staying home I rarely wear makeup and can’t really justify the purchase right now! Hopefully I can pick it up once I am wearing makeup more often!
I wish that CP, if they are going to do some pastel palettes – make them really good. Because there is a lot of competition out there and these, whilst they are inexpensive, are heading into DS territory in terms of quality.
This is soooo tempting, I love pastel blues and lavenders on my eyes, I get it if I can find a UK online retailer.
You’re so right about Colourpop changing their shimmer formulation. Thank you for mentioning it because I couldn’t figure out what was going on… The last CP palette I bought was Making Mauves, and I couldn’t get anywhere with the shimmers on a brush. As someone who greatly prefers applying eyeshadow with a brush vs fingers, I was seriously bummed out. Because if this I’m unsure I’ll be buying more of their palettes in the future (unless they revert to their previous shimmer formula)
Glad I’m not the only one who has noticed! I think their mattes have gotten denser, a bit more pigmented, though a little more powdery, but the shimmers have not improved overall!
