ColourPop Good and Copper Blush & Lite Stix Duo Review & Swatches

Good and Copper

ColourPop Good and Copper Blush & Lite Stix Duo ($14.00 for 0.61 oz.) includes a rich, coppery cream highlighter paired with a mid-depth copper-brown cream blush. The two shades coordinated well together, and they were easy to apply, blend out, and lasted for eight to nine hours on me.

Got Change

Got Change is a medium-dark copper with moderate, warm undertones and a luminous finish. It had medium, buildable pigmentation that applied well onto bare skin or layered on top of foundation/base products as it wasn’t prone to lifting them up. The texture was smooth, lightweight, and spreadable with a more emollient feel from the tube but it didn’t slide around during wear. It stayed on nicely for nine hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview

$8.00/0.33 oz. - $24.24 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to "blend effortlessly" with a "natural, skin-like finish" that can be layered or applied on bare skin. The brand recommends applying directly from the tube for heavier coverage and using a brush to pick up product for less coverage, though the coverage "easily builds colour to your heart's desire." They dry down to a semi-set finish--lightly dewy, definitely "natural, skin-like" in appearance, but not overly tacky or really wet-looking. I haven't found that they migrate or move around much, so the formula is still longer-wearing at seven to nine hours with minimal movement. They have applied well and worn well over foundation thus far, too. They are not transfer-proof but are transfer-resistant; they won't smear around with an inadvertent touch but aren't fully locked down.

The pigmentation varied a bit from shade to shade, but most shades were semi-opaque to fully opaque when applied directly from the tube in one "swipe" motion, though I think mimicking this on cheeks isn't quite as easily done as compared to my arm. I preferred picking up product on my fingertip, patting on the apple of my cheek and diffusing upward and outward, then using a clean fingertip to diffuse and soften the edges as needed. I appreciated that even the deeper hues didn't seem to "sink" into my pores and were as easy to apply and blend out as very light, more my-skin-but-better (literally, my skin!) hues. I would describe the formula was buildable from semi-sheer to medium with semi-opaque coverage possible, but there's enough slip in the formula that it starts to sheer out noticeably even when applied more heavily.

The consistency was lightly emollient, lightweight, and thin with good spreadability and movement; it didn't lift up base products but still worked well over bare skin. I didn't experience it lifting up or creating patchiness over time on top of foundation, even when I set the foundation initially, but I would recommend (same as I would for most cream-based cheek formulas!) to pair with a less-matte foundation for optimal results (the dewy finish plays well with a more skin-like base).

Oh, the caps have the names of the products, but the rest of the tube doesn't, so if you have more than one open, take care in getting the right lid back on!

Happy Accident

Happy Accident is a medium-dark copper with warmer, more orange undertones and a pearly sheen. The texture was lightweight, emollient but not overly slippery, and had good glide across my skin as it spread evenly along the edges but didn’t pick up foundation if applied over it. It had more opaque coverage applied with fingertips and more medium coverage applied with a brush, but it seemed more pigmented than it was intended to be (and in comparison to some shades in the range). It lasted well for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.
