The Best & Worst of ColourPop Summer 2017 Eyeshadows

ColourPop Summer 2017 Pressed Powder Shadows

ColourPop Summer 2017 Collection featured 12 new pressed powders and three new cream eyeshadows (and one repeat, Snakebite). I’ve now finished reviewing all of the new shades, so this post features a recap of how well (or poorly!) each shade did.

The three Super Shock Shadows did well, which came as no surprise as they were fairly pigmented and definitely long-wearing. The majority of the Pressed Powder Eyeshadows performed well, though there was one miss (Muscle Beach). I love that there is a brand that is putting out more hits than misses with quality that is often on-par with much more expensive products and brands.

My favorite shades: As You Wave, Rose All Day, and Board Shorts.
