Lil' Boat

ColourPop Lil’ Boat Pressed Powder Shadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a slightly muted, medium-dark brown with warm, red undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly to bare skin. The consistency was soft, finely-milled, and almost cream-like as there was more substance there, which helped it stay true-to-color on the lid. This shade started to fade on me after eight hours of wear.

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.

Board Shorts

ColourPop Board Shorts Pressed Powder Shadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium-dark, golden bronze with warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic sheen. It had good pigmentation with a soft, slightly looser texture that seemed more prone to sheering out and having some fallout during application (possibly due to the sparkle in it). It blended out without much trouble, and the color stayed on well for eight hours.

Tiny Tangerines

ColourPop Tiny Tangerines Pressed Powder Shadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium, bluish-teal with cool undertones and a metallic finish. The pigmentation was fantastic and very true-to-pan. It had a soft, smooth consistency that was dense enough to help the eyeshadow adhere well to bare skin but still remained blendable. It lasted for eight hours on me.

Muscle Beach

ColourPop Muscle Beach Pressed Powder Shadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium, bluish aqua with cool undertones and a matte finish. It had medium pigmentation, which wasn’t too buildable on its own. It was easier to use over a primer, but it was still very prone to sheering out and applying unevenly. The texture was soft to the touch but incredibly powdery, which resulted in fallout and poor application. It started to fade on me after seven hours of wear.

ColourPop Two Piece Pressed Powder Shadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark blue with strong, cool undertones and a pearly sheen.
