ColourPop x Winnie the Pooh Sweet as Can Bee Palette Review & Swatches
Sweet as Can Bee
ColourPop Sweet as Can Bee 10-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($16.00 for oz.) is a new, limited edition collaboration palette that included 10 eyeshadows across a mix of pink, orange, and green. There were four true shimmer shades, while the rest were matte to sparkle-matte. The eyeshadows performed consistency with the brand’s formula–a little powdery when matte but blendable, pigmented, and wore for around eight hours on average.

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.

Gotta say: the ADORABLENESS has me by the heartstrings! Pooh Bear was my sweet, beloved Pookie’s nickname. She was a grumbly meowing, loud purring ball of pure love. That light green looks like her eyes, and the red, her collar. 🖤❤️🐱💚🖤
I really like the inclusion of two different green shades in this palette – and both of them are stellar. They add a contrast to the many warm toned shades present here. It’s quite a good palette if you like the colour story.
Happy May! I like the new type of review writing! Continually amelioration!
Thank you, Amalia!
I’m glad I ordered this. I’ll be a fun palette for spring and summer, not that I really have special colours depending on season. In short it’ll be a fun palette to play with.
I like the new way of describing opacity, fallout and so on. It’s very easy to read. I hope it’s also easier to write for you, Christine.
It is! For something that I’ve reviewed SOOOO often like ColourPop eyeshadows, I can copy and paste the typical performance and then only modify as necessary!
Thank you!
I have to admit, I thought about it solely based on the artwork and Pooh but since that isn’t really justification for buying, the color story isn’t really me, and they slighted Eeyore, I am passing. Sorry Pooh.
I do really love these colors and the theme just pushes it into the need category. I plan on making an order with the Star Wars release so this may find its way into my cart as well.
