Colourpop Golden Pollen Shadow Stix Review

 Today's eyeliner review is going to be on Colourpop Shadow Stix in Golden Pollen.

I've used this as a base, on the upper lash-line, and on the waterline:

Availability: This retails at $12 for 1.35g (0.048 oz.) and is available at colourpop.com.

Would I buy this again? Possibly.

Notes: This is described as a mint green. I'd say that overall this is a multi-chrome that shifts warm pink-green with a gold pearl - chartreuse green. I think the color is absolutely GORGEOUS! It is pretty and sheer on its own so it makes a nice base, but if you want to wear it alone it can be built up for a more opaque finish. This isn't waterproof, just putting it out there - but does stay put nicely, especially on the waterline; I had it on for 9 hours. It glides on very easily and overall I'd say the formula is smooth and easy to work with. 

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.

Availability: This retails at $12 for 1.35g (0.048 oz.) and is available at colourpop.com.

Notes: This is described as a peachy coral. I'd say that overall this is a multi-chrome that shifts warm pink-peachy-yellow gold. I think the color is absolutely GORGEOUS! It is pretty and sheer on its own so it makes a nice base, but if you want to wear it alone it can be built up for a more opaque finish.

Love It Or Leave It; Review 2.0: Makeup Revolution London Jewel Collection Deluxe Palette

Hello folksickles. As a makeup junkie and blogger you may have realized that I review a LOAD of eyeshadow palettes and I like to think of myself as being largely an eyeshadow junkie. In order to declutter a bit I've decided to pick out a palette or series of eyeshadows for the month and have that be my monthly selection for those instances where I'm not doing a tutorial for the blog. Every month I'll do a recap on the eyeshadows - how I feel about them and whether I'll be keeping them or giving them away (and why :P) as well as if I think it's worth its price tag. 

Makeup Revolution London Jewel Collection Deluxe Palette

You can find a look I did with the palette here. These are the looks I created this month:

So as you can see I created all sorts of pinkish neutral looks, some soft, some more smoky, with these shadows. I personally have found that these shadows are easy to blend and the pigmentation on them is fantastic! All of them work really great in my experience! Honestly, when I took this out to play with it, I thought it was a palette I was going to keep. Now, there's nothing wrong with it and the quality is nice. However, I know for a fact I have palettes with similar shades and because I haven't been reaching for this before, I'm unlikely to reach for it now. For those reasons, I'll be passing it along.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Colourpop Quokka Shadow Stix Review

Today's eyeliner review is going to be on Colourpop Shadow Stix in Quokka.

I've used this as a base, on the upper lash-line, and on the waterline:

Availability: This retails at $8 for 1.35g (0.048 oz.) and is available at ulta.com and target.com (and I'm assuming select physical store locations as well) along with colourpop.com.

Would I buy this again? I'm not sure.

Notes: This is described as a cool bronze. I'd say that overall this is a metallic warm brown bronzy shade with a pewter-toned pearl and silver micro-glitter. This isn't waterproof, just putting it out there - but does stay put nicely, especially on the waterline; I had it on for 9 hours. It glides on very easily and overall I'd say the formula is smooth and easy to work with.
