At First Crush
ColourPop At First Crush 4-Pan Cheek Palette ($18.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a medium-depth set of shades that features a cream-to-powder highlighter, powder bronzer, and two powder blushes. The highlighter was one of the best performing, however all of the merchandise had been per my expertise with the formulation over time–the powder shades might have been extra blendable and simpler to work with for me.
In my expertise, ColourPop’s powder blush system has a very clean, silky consistency that may be on the extra powdery aspect (which helps guarantee it’s extra buildable than not) typically emphasizes dryness on my pores and skin. I did discover that to be true with these to various levels, as they had been a little bit skinny, flat, and weren’t at all times as easy to use as I’d count on.
A Flutter
A Flutter is a light-medium copper with robust, heat orange undertones and a luminous sheen. It had opaque pigmentation when utilized with a fingertip and extra medium, buildable protection utilized with a stippling brush.
The feel felt clean, emollient, and moist to the contact, which gave it nice glide over naked pores and skin in addition to on high of basis, but it surely turned to a extra powder-like really feel as quickly because it got here into contact with my pores and skin. It wore nicely for 10 hours earlier than fading visibly.

Giddy Like
Giddy Like is a medium, caramel brown with robust, heat undertones and a matte end. It had medium, buildable colour protection paired with a comfortable, reasonably powdery consistency that was barely thinner and drier.

This shade lasted nicely for eight hours earlier than fading noticeably.

ColourPop’s Pressed Powder Bronzer is meant to have a “tremendous velvety-soft” really feel that yields a “pure tanned glow.” There was no point out of protection, however the model’s promotional swatches confirmed full protection.

Obtained Butterflies
Obtained Butterflies is a brighter, medium-dark orange-coral with robust, heat undertones and a matte end. The feel was reasonably powdery, so I’d recommend utilizing a less-dense brush and utilizing a lighter hand when choosing up colour.
It had extra medium, buildable pigmentation, so it was exhausting to select up an excessive amount of product, but it surely was simpler to mix out lesser quantities because it wasn’t probably the most blendable system. It wore nicely for eight hours earlier than fading a bit.

The system is meant to go on “easily” and have a “pure and wholesome flush” that has “lengthy put on” and “could be layered to your required depth.” It’s a frivolously to reasonably powdery powder blush with semi-sheer to semi-opaque, buildable colour payoff.
