Now before I start, I’m going to admit that I am a FULL Colourpop addict. I have a LOT of their products in my collection and am constantly making sneaky orders for more. I can’t help myself! But I’ve never made quite as many as I did at the end of last year: making four separate orders in two months. Even for me, that’s a lot! But what can I say?
Anyway, I’m classing all four orders as one haul, because technically they are as I didn’t open much of it until it all arrived. And I did an Instagram Story on the unboxing of the goodies last week and SO many of you loved it. But seeing as I only showed the products, I wanted to do a full reveal of the shades and colours of each product, so you can get a closer look. I apologise in advance for any orders you feel compelled to make yourself after reading this… (I don’t really, DO IT! #enabler)
So here’s what I got in my big Colourpop haul..
yes, please! shadow palette Ksh 2500
What 90’s girl wouldn’t want a yes, please! shadow palette?! Admittedly I was on the fence with this one as the colours are gorgeous individually, but it’s going to be tough to create an eye look without needing more palettes/eyeshadows. But I gave in and ordered it and was so glad I did because the colours are beautiful and I don’t care that I mix and match shadows and palettes. This one is great for a pop of colour. Sadly I had to buy this twice, as I dropped my first one on the kitchen floor and it shattered (sobs) which wasn’t just upsetting but really annoying too because the glitter went errrrywhere and for weeks it was like pixies had been dancing on the kitchen floor! I’ve got a VERY fun post coming up on this soon too, so keep your eyes peeled.
truly madly deeply shadow palette Ksh 3500
Another palette becasue yes, my all-time favourite product from Colourpop are their eyeshadows – the pigmentation is insane. One of the best I’ve ever tried – and that’s saying something. Plus the palettes are great value and I have almost all of them now. That’s how good they are. The truly madly deeply shadow palette is another addition from my haul and it’s got one bright pink colour that I’m unlikely to use, but the rest are incredibly versatile and easy to use shades. As with all Colourpop palettes, there’s a mix of finishes from matte, satin and shimmer so it’s a good all rounder. And damn, it’s pretty.
bye bye birdie shadow palette Ksh 3000
I find this product to be of good value. This palette is really well coordinated, the shades work together well so you don’t need to reach for any others and it’s great for every day too.
I’m swooning all over the show over the latest Colourpop x Kathleen Lights collab. Seriously though, the Dream St palette is my current favourite and I’ve used it every single day since it arrived. I swatched it a bit on Instagram, so check that out, but I’ve got a full review of this one coming later!
mattifying setting spray all star Ksh 2000
Admittedly I didn’t need a primer. Or a spray. But I’d seen the lovely girls in the Colourpop Instagram Stories using this as an eyeshadowprimer, sprayed directly onto the brush before applying. Seeing as I was buying so much eyeshadow, I thought I’d give it a go too. I am thrilled that I did! Can’t say I like the scent much, but it’s GREAT for applying shadows. It gives the perfect consistency for the shimmer and glitter shadows. The colours and finishes truly pop like nothing I’ve used before and it’s another huge hit from me.
Lippie Stix Ksh 1200 each
I’m a big fan of the Lippie Stix too, so treated myself to four, and again I prefer lipsticks to liquid formulas so these are lovely, because even the matte versions are still less drying than a liquid lipstick. I got shades Faded, Lumiere, Contempo and a replacement Bound as it’s one of my most used. Pretty chuffed with them all!
So there you have it – my big Colourpop haul! I am pretty much loving everything and there’s not one thing I won’t use. If you haven’t yet tried Colourpop, you really, really should!
