ColourPop Rumer Has It Super Shock Shadows
Just recently, there were six new, limited edition shades of ColourPop Super Shock Shadows ($5.00 for 0.07 oz.) released in collaboration with Rumer Willis. Four of the shades were released last week, and two were released this week (and those two I don’t have, but I plan to buy next time I make an order). This set of shades is ideal for someone who loves a lot of sparkle, glitter, and their smoky eyes. There are also three lipsticks launched within the collaboration (two of which I will review soon!).
ColourPop Swan Super Shock Shadow ($5.00 for 0.07 oz.) is described as a “soft creamy white with tons of silver glitter and hints of pink duochrome glitter in a metallic finish.” It’s a medium white that leans slightly warm-toned with a lot of silver sparkle and glittery bits. The glitter made more of an impact than the underlying base color, which was semi-sheer (even applied with a fingertip). There is fall out from the shade when blended during application, and there was some fall out during wear. The texture had a chunkiness to it that made it harder to get even color out of the pot with a brush–it seemed to flake away in chunks, so fingertip application is definitely the preferred method with this shade. It is best patted on or layered over another shade to add sparkles. It didn’t crease over a nine hour period. MAC Permanent Press #1 (LE) is less sparkly. YSL Eau d’Argent (02) (P, $30.00) is a liquid. Urban Decay Cosmic (P, $20.00) is more sparkly. MAC Smoky Black Friday #1 (LE) is less glittery. Too Faced Frost (LE, $16.00) is less glittery. MAC Regal Affair (LE, $19.50) is similar. Make Up For Ever ME122 Snow (P, $21.00) is brighter, less glittery. Marc Jacobs Beauty Stagelight (302) (LE, $32.00) is similar. Dior Golden Snow #3 (LE) is similar. MAC Angelic (P, $21.00) is similar. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.
ColourPop Ice Super Shock Shadow ($5.00 for 0.07 oz.) is described as a “true silver with tons of multi-dimensional highly reflective glitter in a metallic finish.” It’s a medium, pewter with larger silver glitter and multi-colored micro-glitter and sparkle; the sparkles tend to look like teal, silver, and gold. The texture was lightly emollient with semi-opaque color payoff from the base color with lots of glitter payoff. I was able to apply this shade with a brush without texture or payoff being an issue, though I highly recommend using a flat, synthetic brush. A fluffier brush will tend to catch the glitter and cause more fall out during application as a result, though fall out during wear resulted in less than five sparkles underneath the eye after nine hours of wear. ColourPop Snow Flurry (LE, $5.00) is slightly warmer. Chanel Tisse Venitien #3 (P) is darker. Kat Von D Melancholia (P) is darker. Sephora Collection Lunar Eclipse (98) (P, $13.00) is similar. Dior Constellation (864) #2 (LE) is less sparkly. Chanel Moon River (LE, $34.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.
ColourPop Feather Super Shock Shadow ($5.00 for 0.07 oz.) is described as a “true liquid gunmetal in an ultra metallic finish.” It’s a medium-dark gray with cool undertones and a pearly sheen (but not “ultra metallic”). It had good color payoff that applied very smoothly and evenly, and the consistency blended out well on the lid without losing intensity. On me, it wore well for ten hours without fading or creasing. YSL Grey Splash (01) (P, $30.00) is more sparkly. MAC Bao Bao’s Jewels #5 (LE) is more metallic. Hourglass Graphite #4 (P) is darker. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Enigma #2 (P) is similar. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Parisienne #1 (LE) is darker. Stila Black Diamond (P) is warmer. Make Up For Ever ME108 Steel (P, $21.00) is darker. NARS Jardin Perdu (Left) (LE, $24.00) is lighter. Kat Von D Santeria (LE) is darker. Tarina Tarantino Lovely #3 (P) is lighter. Fyrinnae Frostbytes (P, $6.80) is lighter. Makeup Geek Prince Charming (P, $6.99) is less shimmery. MAC Graphic Style (LE, $16.00) is less shimmery. Giorgio Armani #21 (LE, $33.00) is darker. Estee Lauder Cyber Silver (LE, $24.00) is more metallic. Bobbi Brown Silver (LE) is lighter. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.
ColourPop Raven Super Shock Shadow ($5.00 for 0.07 oz.) is described as an “intense black lightly dusted with silver flecks in a metallic finish.” It’s a deepened, medium-dark black with silver sparkle. The cream formulation really shines here, because it enables the sparkles to actually adhere with the base product and onto the lid, rather than disappear in your brush or the air. I applied it with a flat, synthetic brush and had no issues getting opaque coverage out of it with noticeable sparkle. I didn’t get fall out during wear that I could detect, and there were a few stray sparkles after ten hours of wear but no creasing. ColourPop Friskie (P, $5.00) is a lesser version of this shade. Kat Von D Black Star (LE) is a powder. Make Up For Ever D104 Black Diamond (P, $21.00) is a powder. Ulta Night Sky (P, $10.00) is less sparkly, powder. MAC Jet Couture (P, $21.00) is more sparkly, warmer. MAC Black Diamond (LE, $16.50)is less sparkly. Lancome The New Black (P, $19.00) is a powder. Chanel Mirifique (P, $36.00) is slightly darker. Buxom Black Lab (P, $18.00) is less sparkly. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

I love these colors but I will once again have to pass. I have looked at the ColourPop site a dozen times, especially since they have gotten such great reviews across the board. I haven’t purchased anything since it all looks glittery, sparkly, and I hate glitter and sparkle in my makeup. I know there are some matte shadows but I have also read about the consistency of the shadows being soft and squishy, not something I want in my eye shadow. Besides, I much prefer palettes and don’t like to buy single pots.
If you don’t like cream eyeshadows, then ColourPop’s eyeshadow formula is definitely not for you. They have lots of pearl, satin, and matte finishes that don’t have glitter or sparkle, but if you don’t like creams, there’s no point either way! 🙂
Definitely seconding Christine here. If you dislike cream shadows, ColourPop might be a skip for you. A few friends I’ve introduced the brand to who generally dislike creams found the ColourPop shades very workable, but others just aren’t into cream shadows and that’s okay 🙂
I accidentally ordered Swan thinking it was part of the summer collection since it was in the row with the others in that collection,lol! Oh well, at least it’s only $5! Raven and Feather may have to see their way into may cart soon. I don’t do dark, smoky looks a lot. But, Raven and Feather may be nice to use to deepen the crease, for the outer v and for lining which I will sometime do with a black or gray shadow vs pencil if I want to tone it down.
My best advice is to pat Swan over another shade for added sparkle with a fingertip!
Thanks! I’ll give it a go. If not, my daughter can use it for play! 🙂 She’s all over sparkle!
Like Chanel Fantasme?
Less silver with a stronger base color!
Which one? Lol
Sorry! Chanel Fantasme is a little darker in glitter color and has a sheerer base 🙂
Haha! It’s okay! 🙂 thank you for clarifying! Fantasme’s sheer base is like my skin. LOL!
Oh, thanks SO much for reviewing these!! I’ve been prowling the web for swatches and reviews ever since these came out. I missed out on Snow Flurry 🙁 so I’m eyeing Ice and maybe Feather too
My pleasure, Katherine! 🙂
Woah.. really busy time of year for us and holy crap, running through the posts for the past day or so and look at all I the upcoming MAC and Colour Pop posts, I can’t keep up either. This smoky eye is incredible and makes the hazel in your eyes seriously sparkle.
There is a bit of a lull in most lines right now, except MAC and ColourPop, LOL!
I really love the look you created!
Thanks, Dani!
Oh I would loooove to do an all-black smokey with Raven for a night out!
It would be pretty!
Neutral eyeshadows – now you’ve got my number!
I’m kind of disappointed that “Feather” didn’t perform better, since I was hoping for a MAC “Unbasic White” dupe.
Aww, wish it was more up to your expectations!
Raven is giving me LIFE this morning. SO MUCH GLITTER. I am going to have to place another ColourPop order next payday!
Yay! Glad you’re digging it 🙂
Pretty glittery shadows! I wish we had these here.
One day!
Raven is so gorgeous! It reminds me of MAC Black ties which I purchased like 8 years ago (one of my first professional brand products) ! And it didn’t blend well… so since then I kinda stayed away from black eyeshadows just because I don’t have much confidence in pulling off a well blended look. NOW Raven is here! I think I just saw a life-saver LOL~ The look you created is fabulous!
It is like a much better, amped up version of Black Tied!
Yeah, these are definitely for the glitter gals lol. I love m me some glitter but I prefer it in moderation on the eyes so I could pass on the entire set. But I love how Ice looks. That needs to be sold individually!
They’re actually available individually!
These aren’t colours I’m interested in, but nice to see some of them performed exceptionally! 🙂
Very true 🙂
Whoa, sparkle. Pretty in the pan, but not so much for me!
Lots of sparkle with these!
That’s a gorgeous partylook you created, Christine! Unfortunately, I have to pass, these colours are not for me.
Thank you, Emiloutre! 🙂
I have Raven and Feather on my wishlist, I’m so glad they performed well and I’ll definitely be buying them!
Woohoo! 🙂
I was thinking of skipping over Raven on my next order (which will definitely include Feather) because I’ve been burned by so very many sparkly blacks with disappearing glitter. But seeing it on your eye is amazing. That has to go in my work kit. It really looks like shimmering black diamonds gracing your lids. Always what I want from shimmer blacks and never get. The only other diamond black that’s worked almost that well for me is MUFE’s Black Diamond and even that one looks a little tame in comparison the full on night sky here.
It’s super pretty! I bet if you layered MUFE over it, it would be like a night sky for sure, haha.
My eyes shall glittery with the fury of a thousand nights 😛
Do you have a specific recommendation for a brush to use for these? I placed an order last week for a bunch of other colour pop shadows (bae, ibiza, etc), and am using the finger method and find most is being wasted on my hand!! what is coming off on my eyes is beautiful though.
I use MAC 239s/242s primarily, no issues with those except for some of the super glittery shades where fingertips are better and occasionally another shade or two.
I agree with Christine on the brush recommendations as those two are often what I use (or something similar if need be). When I need the color built up in a way that only finger patting can provide, I wait until the base layer I applied with my fingers sets a bit and pat on some more color only as needed. Try to get in as tiny a portion of the pot with your finger as possible to avoid getting too much in one go. Though they should rinse clean off clean with water or a makeup wipe.
Base layer I applied with brush* sorry for being confusing :P. First step is brush application, second step is patting on lightly with fingers over dried step 1.
I love Ice – the finish is so cool!
It’s very sparkly!
Love your eye look here! Gorgeous!
Thank you, Phyrra!
Christine, your eye look is totally transformative! So beautiful, I love the way you used the colors on your eye and brought out the beautiful hazel! 🙂
Aw, thanks so much! xoxo
You’re welcome! Hi Rachel! 🙂 Group Hug! Xo! 🙂
Agree completely!
That is one seriously kick-butt smoky eye that you pulled off!!! Mahvously btw! I could probably approximate that using the black in my MUFE palette with say, my Nyx dupe of Knight Divine and some L’Oreal Infallible Liquid Diamond maybe?
Thank you so much, Nancy!
Yes, I think the black in the MUFe palette will get you close!
These are beautiful, though Swan looks like it needs some help from primer. Ice and Raven are stunning. I don’t watch DWTS, but I saw pictures of Rumer in the makeup, and she looked beautiful.
Raven is a very cool shade!
I really like the sort of dirty pewter look of Ice. Because I need more Colourpop in my life lol.
At the pace they’re going, you will never not need more, LOL!
Love Ice and Feather – Feather is a perfect cool toned grey that can be worn with greens, blues and, of course, a smoky look. Why would you spend more $$$$ than to get one of these for $5? They are sensational eye shadows. Colour Pop should make some palettes of them.
Love your eye look Christine, it is stunning.
Thank you so much, as always, Genevieve!
How can you see swatches of Raven and not want to buy it immediately?
<3
Haha! 😉
Beautiful eye look! Black eyeshadow scares the bajeebus out of me so I’m not sure how I’d do with these. I just don’t have anything like them!
Thank you, Sarah!
Have you tried wearing it horizontally? It almost works like upper lash liner, but you’d go thicker and blend upwards so it has a more gradient effect. I find that’s my favorite way to wear black eyeshadow!
Black smokey eye!! I need to do that again soon.
You do! 😀
