Dusk Till Dawn

ColourPop Dusk Till Dawn Shadow Kit ($30.00 for 0.44 oz.) contains six, full-sized cream eyeshadows. They're all quite sparkly/shimmery, and I think that if you aren't someone who likes to apply your eyeshadows with fingertips or use glittery eyeshadows patted on top of other eye colors, this set might not be that functional or easy to use. Of the six, one was described specifically as sheer (New Magic), and the rest had semi-opaque to opaque coverage with solid wear, though some of the very glittery shades had a touch of fallout over time--barely a blip relative to just how glittery they were.

I find that ColourPop's Super Shock Shadow formula wears extremely well on me: easily 10 hours without creasing and fading. I like applying them with flat, synthetic brushes and will use brushes over fingertips as long as I can, as my fingertips seem far too large for my lids and give me no precision, so it's just not an ideal tool for me unless I'm only using one shade all over the lid or patting a shade on the center of the lid. This set is best used with fingertips for four of the six shades, so just keep that in mind if that's a deal-breaker for you!
