Formula Overview

$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce

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.

ColourPop The Libra Pressed Powder Shadow

The Libra

ColourPop The Libra Pressed Powder Shadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a soft, pinky-coral with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had excellent pigmentation with a soft, lightly creamy texture that wasn’t too firmly nor too softly pressed in the pan. The eyeshadow applied well and blended out easily along the edges. It wore nicely for eight hours on me before I noticed fading.

ColourPop The Capricorn Pressed Powder Shadow

The Capricorn

ColourPop The Capricorn Pressed Powder Shadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a soft black with barely-there gold shimmer. It had opaque pigmentation with a drier, slightly stiffer consistency that was a bit thin compared to most of the brand’s matte eyeshadows. It applied evenly to my skin but took a bit of extra effort to diffuse along the edges. It stayed on well for eight hours on me before fading visibly.

ColourPop The Aquarius Pressed Powder Shadow

The Aquarius

ColourPop The Aquarius Pressed Powder Shadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium, periwinkle blue with cool undertones and a matte finish. It had medium, buildable pigmentation with a soft, lightly powdery consistency–though it had a lot less fallout and was easier to work with than the version I have from the palette. So while there’s still room for improvement, it did improve from the last iteration (at least for me). It wore well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

ColourPop The Pisces Pressed Powder Shadow

The Pisces

ColourPop The Pisces Pressed Powder Shadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a bright, medium aqua with subtle, cool undertones and a metallic finish. The consistency was thicker and chunkier, which resulted in light fallout during application, and it was better to apply this with fingertips, which helped to smooth out and press the product onto my lid. The pigmentation was semi-opaque and buildable. This shade stayed on well for eight hours on me before creasing faintly.
