She's a Natural

ColourPop She’s a Natural Pressed Powder Shadow Quad ($9.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a new, all-matte, neutral eyeshadow quad that was moderately warm-toned and more light to light-medium in depth. All four shades were pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing with the biggest “con” being that the formula was lightly to moderately powdery, so using a lighter hand or tapping off excess would be ideal. They were more of a velvety-matte, which gave them a denser, more substantial feel.

Only One

Only One is a light-medium peach with strong, warm orange undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage paired with a soft, blendable consistency that was somewhat powdery, which resulted in a bit of sheerness in practice. It wore well for seven 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” 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.

Babe (She's a Natural)

Babe (She’s a Natural) is a light brown with warm, peachy undertones and a matte finish. The texture was somewhat powdery, though it was finely-milled, velvety, and substantial enough to maintain its full opacity when applied to bare skin. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading noticeably.

On Track

On Track is a medium-dark brown with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was smooth, more velvety, and finely-milled, which ensured it was blendable but there was light powderiness to it that required a lighter-hand to avoid fallout. It had opaque color coverage that wore well for eight hours before fading visibly.
