ColourPop Mar Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Mar
Colour Pop Mar 9-Pan Eyeshadow Palette ($12.00 for 0.36 oz.) is one of two newly released powder eyeshadow palettes released by the brand for their summer collection. If you’re someone who likes a lot of mattes, you may find this combination to be too shimmer-heavy. I liked most of the shades, and I felt like I could come up with some color combinations, but it did take some thinking to blend the cooler shades with all the very warm-toned hues in the palette. I would have loved to have seen less beach, more sea in this color scheme; like a shifting, shimmering blue, frothy silver, kelp green, dirty pewter for sand, and so on.

Limited Edition

El Rey
El Rey is a soft, golden peach with warm, yellow undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good pigmentation but definitely applied and looked several shades lighter in practice than it did in the pan, so keep that in mind when thinking about color combinations! The texture was soft, slightly drier and dusty in the pan, but I didn’t have any trouble with the application on my lid or diffusing the edges. It wore well for seven and a half hours on me before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview
$5.00/0.04 oz. - $125.00 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.

Limited Edition

Wild One
Wild One is a medium-dark, orange-toned copper with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had nearly opaque color payoff that applied fairly evenly to bare skin and blended out nicely along the edges. It had a creamier, more emollient feel by touch, and as a result, it seemed to apply better with fingertips or a dampened brush than a dry brush. This shade stayed on well for eight hours on me.

Detour
Detour is a medium-dark cobalt blue with cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. It seemed to have the slightest sheen overall, but on my lid, it looked more matte than satin. The texture was soft, slightly thin and a touch dusty in the pan, but it applied evenly with opaque coverage and blended out with little effort. It lasted nicely for eight hours.

Boozy
Boozy is a bright, medium tangerine orange with strong, warmer yellow undertones and a golden sheen paired with a metallic finish. The texture was soft, moderately creamy and had a little bit of noticeable slip, which worried me initially as this can sometimes result in patchiness or less coverage on the lid, but it applied well and had opaque coverage in a single layer. It wore well for eight hours on me.

Gridlock
Gridlock is a brighter, medium blue-leaning teal with a metallic sheen. It had a denser, more cream-like texture that was a little thick and had some slip, and like with Boozy, I wasn’t sure it was going to go on well, but it did! The eyeshadow applied with opaque color coverage on my lid and blended out nicely with little effort. It stayed on without fading for eight hours on me.

HWY
HWY is a light, mint green with subtle, warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good color coverage, though it needed to be applied over a primer or used with a dampened brush to get opaque coverage out of it. The consistency was slightly dusty in the pan but it blended out just fine and didn’t seem to be prone to sheering out or having fallout. It wore well for just over seven and a half hours on me.

Top Down
Top Down is a deep brown with subtle, neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. The color coverage was nearly opaque in a single layer with a soft, slightly powdery texture (mostly in the pan) that applied evenly and blended out nicely. I noticed slight fading after eight hours of wear.

My Way
My Way is a medium bronze with warm, slightly orange undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. It had rich color payoff in a single layer, but the powder felt more loosely pressed in the pan so there was some powderiness and a bit of fallout when applied. I recommend using this over a primer or using a dampened brush for better adhesion. The color lasted for just over eight hours on me overall.
