Super Mellow

ColourPop Super Mellow Blotted Lip (2021) ($8.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a light-medium peach with warmer undertones and a matte finish. The consistency was firmer in the tube, but it had a velvety glide to it that delivered a thin, even layer of sheer coverage in one stroke. I was able to build up the pigmentation to medium coverage with a second layer. It wore well for two hours and was non-drying.

Formula Overview

$8.00/0.06 oz. - $133.33 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to deliver "sheer payout" but "can build up to medium coverage." It features a "blurred-focus matte finish" that is "non-drying." They are a sheer, matte tinted lip balm that feels almost weightless, not clingy and has a matte finish from the get-go. I didn't find they were buildable, and they were non-drying, but they lasted between two and three hours on my lips. They are fairly transfer-resistant, as I didn't notice any lip prints on my glass during drinking.

They have sheer to semi-sheer coverage with only a couple of the deeper/richer hues (like red/berry kind of colors) delivering more buildable coverage. A lot of the shades ran together over my natural lip color, which is lighter and more neutral (not particularly pink), so anyone with more noticeable pigment in their lips may see even less of difference between the lighter and more mid-tone shades.

The consistency was smooth, almost silky, despite being a slightly firmer and denser formula (no typical creaminess), and they glided across my lips comfortably. I was most impressed by how they did not seem to catch on texture/imperfections, even with the lighter shades.

They have a sweet, fruity scent (read cherry punch to my nose) but no discernible taste. I don't notice the scent much after five minutes of it being on, but it was strong in the tube.

Otter

ColourPop Otter Blotted Lip (2021) ($8.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a light, pinky-coral with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had sheer pigmentation that was somewhat buildable to semi-sheer coverage, but it was more prone to settling into my lip lines compared to other shades in the range (but did not cling to lip texture, at least). The consistency was firmer in the tube, but it glided across my lips without tugging and felt very lightweight. It stayed on well for two hours and felt neither drying nor hydrating.
