ColourPop Waffle Cone Eyeshadow Quad Review & Swatches
Waffle Cone
ColourPop Waffle Cone Pressed Powder Shadow Quad ($9.00 for 0.21 oz.) includes a shimmery, pale green paired with three mattes (light brown, deep brown, and light teal). The shimmery green was slightly sheerer and didn’t last quite as long as the mattes, but the mattes were pigmented, blendable, and easy to work with overall.

LELimited Edition. $9.00.
Minty Dream
Minty Dream is a very light, minty green with subtle warmth and a metallic sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that didn’t build up much, though using it with a fingertip made it higher coverage than a dry brush. The consistency was lightly emollient without being too thick or too firmly-packed into the pan. It wore well for seven and a half hours before creasing faintly.

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.

The texture was soft, lightly powdery but blendable and not prone to fallout. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading visibly.
