What Dreams are Made of

ColourPop What Dreams are Made of 12-Pan Pressed Powder Shadow Palette ($18.00 for 0.36 oz.) is a new, limited edition palette that includes one pressed glitter, five pressed pigments, and the remainder are actual eyeshadows. There were three true mattes and three sparkle mattes. The matte eyeshadows were not as powdery as some recent releases, though the more sparkly matte shades had some fallout during application. The shimmers were nice overall as they were smoother and had enough creaminess for good adhesion and not a lot of fallout.

Puh-lease

Puh-lease has a translucent base chocked full of small-sized orange and iridescent glitter. It contained plastic (PET) glitter and was not intended for use around the eye area. The texture felt emollient, somewhat wet to the touch, and had decent spreadability and adhesion as a result. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that lasted decently for seven hours with some migration.

Done and Done

Done and Done is a darker peach with muted, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was soft, smooth, and more substantial, which gave it a velvety feel and full color coverage in a single layer. It applied evenly and blended out well with little effort. This shade wore nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

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.

Uggghhh

Uggghhh is a medium-dark pink with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The color applied darker than it appeared in the pan. The texture was soft, smooth, and more velvety with light powderiness, but it wasn’t prone to sheering out or having a lot of fallout. It was richly pigmented and wore well for eight hours before fading visibly.

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." The way the Pressed Pigments differ is that they're not intended for usage on the immediate eye area.

The majority of the shades are semi-opaque to opaque in coverage, blend out fairly well, and can sometimes be a bit drier/more powdery compared to typical matte shades. They often wear eight to nine hours on me before fading, but many shades in the Pressed Pigment family leave some staining behind.

Browse all of our ColourPop Pressed Powder Pigment swatches.

NOTICE: All products categorized under "Pigment" carry a warning in the US that the product is "not intended for use in the immediate eye area." Brands in the US typically market these products as "Pigments" (instead of "Eyeshadow"), and there is often a warning on the back of packaging or the label. The product includes color additives that are not approved for usage on the eyes per the FDA. Some color additives in "Pigments" have no usage restrictions in the EU, per CosIng, and can be used on the eyes. We recommend checking ingredients to confirm current safety assessment/restrictions: FDA/CosIng.

Hello Fabulous

Hello Fabulous is a medium-dark lavender purple with subtle, cooler undertones in its base and warmer flecks of peach and pink sparkle. It had a more loosely-pressed, slightly drier consistency, so there was light fallout during application. It was best applied by pressing and patting it into place and only lightly blending it out to avoid additional fallout. This shade lasted well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Don't Freak

Don’t Freak is a bright, chartreuse green with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which could be built up to full coverage with less than a second layer. It appeared warmer applied than it did in the pan, though. The texture was slightly thinner and drier, which led to some fallout. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading visibly.

Soo Mature

Soo Mature is a brighter, medium-dark coral-orange with warm undertones and flecks of sparkle over a matte finish. The texture was soft, somewhat powdery, and there was a fair amount of fallout from the sparkles as the matte base didn’t give them anything to bind with. It had opaque pigmentation that showed signs of wear after eight hours.

Outfit Repeater

Outfit Repeater is a deeper fuchsia pink with subtle, cool undertones and flecks of sparkle over a matte finish. Those sparkles did not bind with the underlying color, so they mainly resulted in fallout during application and very few that adhered. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that wore decently for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Digital Bean

Digital Bean is a medium purple with warmer, pink undertones and flecks of sparkle throughout a matte base. The texture was somewhat powdery, though I’d say less powdery than more recent releases from the brand, so it had light fallout during application but proved to be blendable (the latter being more important!). It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that lasted for eight hours.
