ColourPop Element of Surprise 12-Pan Pressed Shadow Palette ($16.00 for 0.36 oz.) is a mix of warm neutrals, reds, and berries with both mattes and shimmers. It's another winning palette from the brand if the types of shades appeal to you, and the quality rivals many palettes I've tested this holiday season at double and triple the price.
I really enjoy ColourPop products overall, and their pressed eyeshadow formula is hard to beat at the price, but I really wish they would make it clearer when they include shades that are "not intended for use in the immediate eye area" or exclude them from palettes that look like eyeshadow palettes in all the meaningful ways. These shades are listed as "not intended for use in the immediate eye area" per the ingredient lists found on their website: Silk Street, Opulent, and Blank Canvas. Other brands also sell products that look like eyeshadows but carry the same warning, and it is often related to the pigments used in them and in the case of some instances, those warnings aren't necessary in places like Canada or the EU (as they are safe for using on the eye under those regulations), but it's hard to know without really diving deep into the ingredient list each and every time.
