ColourPop Me v the World, R We Done, Spacemaker Ultra Glossy Lips Reviews & Swatches
Me v the World
ColourPop Me v the World Ultra Glossy Lip ($6.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a rich, medium-dark brown with strong, warm orange-red undertones and a cream finish that was quite shiny. The texture was smooth, spreadable, and non-sticky with a thicker feel but never felt heavy or glue-like on my lips. The pigmentation was nearly opaque in a single layer, though it was designed to have more medium coverage.
I wish ColourPop would switch to a more traditional doe-foot applicator as the brush-style applicator makes it harder to spread the product along the edges cleanly. This shade had enough opacity to support a really even application of color, and there was only a touch that sank into my lip lines but not enough that it was noticeable at a normal viewing distance. It stayed on nicely for four hours and felt hydrating while worn.

Formula Overview
$10.00/0.11 oz. - $90.91 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "hi-shine" with a "non-sticky" texture that "feels amazing" and includes five finishes "from 3-D pearl to sheer tinted colour." They are designed to be a sheerer formula, so many shades are sheer with a smattering of shimmer or sparkle and then a few are more tinted with sheer to semi-sheer coverage but no shimmer. Each gloss has a short, brush-type applicator, which worked better than I expected and didn't leave streaky results behind (in general). They had a sweet, vanilla scent but no discernible taste.
The "Tinted" finish ("glass-like shine with tint of sheer colour and no shimmer") was the least consistent--sometimes prone to unevenness and getting into lip lines, particularly with deeper/richer shades, whereas Pearlescent ("glass-like shine with subtle shimmer") and Prismatic ("glass-like shine with floating multi dimensional pearl and glitters") are sheer to translucent with the major difference being finer shimmer in the Pearlescent finish and larger, more glitter-like particles in the Prismatic finish. Both finishes tended to look plush and more smoothing on my lips. The Creme finish is a "medium-coverage gloss with a creamy finish that does not contain any pearls or glitter." The Metallic is described as a "full-coverage gloss with a mix of pearl and metallic finishes."
The wear time varied by shade but the sheerer ones tended to wear between two and three hours as the formula was, indeed, non-sticky and smooth, which made them lighter-weight and comfortable to wear but shorter wearing. A lot of the sheerer shades ran together, so I would recommend just picking up one or two rather than several as the differences are likely to be lost! Also, keep in mind that sheerer lip colors can look different from person to person due to much of the natural lip color coming through.

R We Done
ColourPop R We Done Ultra Glossy Lip ($6.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a light, peachy brown with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which applied somewhat evenly, though it was hard to get a truly even lay down of product. There was a bit of color that settled into my lip lines, but I didn’t feel like I could tell in person (between the opacity and high-shine finish). It lasted well for four hours and felt lightly moisturizing over time.

Spacemaker
ColourPop Spacemaker Ultra Glossy Lip ($6.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a brighter, peachy coral with warm, orange undertones and a glossy, cream finish. It had nearly opaque coverage in a single layer, though it was supposed to have more medium coverage. The applicator, despite being smaller, actually pulled out plenty of product so in order to get sheerer coverage, I’d recommend wiping a bit off prior to application.
The texture was smooth, spreadable, and felt more like a hybrid cream-gel formula as it wasn’t tacky but was denser and a little thicker (but not heavy). The product went on decently, especially for this type of finish and format, but there were faint streaks along the outer edges of my lips and some product settled into my lip lines. It wore well for three and a half hours and felt hydrating over time.

‘R We Done’ & ‘Me V The World’ are super unique colors that I would loooove to have, but I hate that type of applicator with a pigmented gloss.. You are right!
ugh these are gorgeous, I want them all
Me V The World and R We Done are certainly different enough in tone from other brownish spicey shades out here that I definitely want Me V The World! It makes me think of pumpkin pie or glazed sweet potatoes!
Me V The World is a great shade, love it.
I know some people love the brush applicator but I’m with you – doe foot would be my choice as well.
Though the pigmentation is lovely, I don’t think I’ll enjoy actually putting it on because of the application method so this is probably a skip for me.
Thanks as always for your great swatches and reviews!
