ColourPop Main Squeeze Eyeshadow Palette Makeup Look Ideas (x9)

ColourPop Main Squeeze 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette

ColourPop Main Squeeze 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($12.00 for 0.36 oz.) includes three true shimmers, one satin, and five mattes. I think the quality is there in the palette, but the shades ran together a little more than in past palettes so it was a lot less versatile. If you have lighter shimmers and some matte burgundy/plum shades on hand, I think you could extend this palette quite a bit by adding those to it!

About This Series

Each look idea is centered around a “quad” of four shades with the expectation that one might bring in the appropriate brow bone or additional transitional shade based on skin tone. I know that I tend to use more like five or six shades in a typical look, but I think that four is a happy medium to give a good idea of the “core” color scheme of a look while giving you the ability to lighten/darken as desired. I have listed the colors in this order: inner lid, middle of lid, outer lid/crease, and crease/above crease.

You might see combinations that seem slightly repeated but placement will vary (e.g. a halo placement where the lightest and more shimmery shade is placed on the center) as placement can also create a different effect/look! You might also want to consider incorporating your favorite matte/shimmer shades (as applicable) to increase the versatility of certain palettes. Consider these ideas a jumping off point!

I really appreciate these posts! So often I’ll take the easiest ‘one and done’ route, which leaves my Colourpop palette obsession a bit overlooked. I’d love to see more.
