ColourPop Matte Colour Stix Reviews & Swatches (Part 1 of 2)
Fave Things
ColourPop Fave Things Matte Colour Stix ($6.00 for 0.019 oz.) is a light-medium, yellowed beige with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly across my lid. The texture was lightly creamy, smooth, and not too thick or too thin, which helped it apply easily compared to most shades in the range. It lasted well for seven and a half hours on me.

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.019 oz. - $315.79 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "ultra pigmented" in "one swipe" while being "long wearing" and "water-resistant." There are two finishes: matte and metallic, and the initial release included two shades from each finish, so the overview is based on those four shades, which is not a ton of shades to go off of!
One of the four pencils was drier, stiffer, and was prone to the point snapping off during application. The other three were creamier with the metallic shades being more emollient than the remaining matte shade. The pigmentation varied from shade to shade; it ranged from medium to opaque with some being more buildable than others.
The performance was more consistent with three of the four shades applying comfortably with somewhat even initial layers. They were blendable for five to 10 seconds before they dried down to more budge-proof finish. They didn't feel heavy or clingy on my lids, and while they were creamy, they did not feel slippery as they were drying down so they did not settle into fine lines or creases during the dry down.
I was able to apply them directly from the pencil to my eye area, but I found a brush gave me a more even application and helped me blend out the product without losing some of the coverage compared to application with a fingertip. The shades lasted between six and eight hours before creasing on me.

Sunday Morning
ColourPop Sunday Morning Matte Colour Stix ($6.00 for 0.019 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark yellow with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. The consistency was lightly creamy, so it was comfortable to apply, but it was a little thick, which resulted in less-even coverage and a tendency to emphasize lid texture. It had mostly opaque, buildable color payoff that wore decently for seven hours before creasing.

Check Please
ColourPop Check Please Matte Colour Stix ($6.00 for 0.019 oz.) is a light-medium brown with soft, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in one stroke, which was easily built up to full coverage with less than half of a layer more.
The texture was smooth, lightly emollient, which helped it glide across my lid and lash line without tugging. It dried down quickly but had just enough time to diffuse the edges so long as I worked with a brush and not my fingertip. It stayed on well for seven hours before creasing a bit.

Day Date
ColourPop Day Date Matte Colour Stix ($6.00 for 0.019 oz.) is a vivid, medium-dark coral with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which I could layer to get to full coverage. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy but not too slippery, which helped it apply evenly and comfortably over my lid.
It was quick to dry down, but I was able to diffuse the edges for the most part as long as I used a brush to do so. It wore well for seven hours before showing signs of wear.
