ColorPop Super Shock Shadow Review

These came in an awesome range of shades and are so affordable! I do tend to reach for my other eye shadows a little more - because they are individually packaged they sometimes end up at the bottom of my makeup bag/drawer but when I do use them they look great! Extremely pigmented - a little bit goes a long way and it does go on nicely.

I've just counted and it turns out I have 23 different shades of the Colourpop Super Shock Shadows, so I think it's fair to say that I am a fan!

These shadows come in a variety of finishes, including: matte, shimmer, satin, and glitter. Personally I'm less fond of the glitter finish as this does tend to create fallout on the face but the other ones are amazing!

The texture of these are unlike any other product I've tried, they're almost like a putty but less sticky. They do need to have their lids on firmly to prevent drying out which is why they're in the tubs rather than in a palette format. I believe though that this putty-like texture is how they've managed to put so much pigment into the shadows so a little goes a long way.

The amount of product you actually get is quite deceptive, and this is my main gripe with the product. The tub makes it appear as though you are getting a full jar of each shade when in reality it's just a regular sized eyeshadow pan of product inside a large tub, making it difficult to store or transport in your makeup bag.

To sum up my thoughts on this, I do love them but they are a bit big for storage and always threaten to dry out so you really do need to weigh up whether the colour payoff is worth the space in your collection.

i don't often wear eyeshadow but when i do, i want something thats going to last and not smear all down my face. i bought a few of these to try when i did a colorpop order and man.. i'll be buying more!

they're much bigger than what i'm used to (thats what she said?) as i have only 2 too faced palettes to compare them to. however, theyre going to last a long time and i feel like theyre better protected from the elements being in their own cases.

they're incredibly pigmented with a bit of fallout, but thats to be expected these days i think. they apply super easy and blend even easier. i always start with a little and add to it if its not enough. seems to work well enough for me!

they do crease on my eyes but i have hooded lids - normal lid gals should be fine. i really enjoyed using these and i would definitely do so again!

I absolutely love the super shock shadows from colorpop. They are extremely cheap and the pigment is amazing and always go onto the eye with ease. I would definitely recommend the shadows as they are super affordable and are really pigmented!

I will always advocate for any Colourpop product. I’ve tried many of them and just adore the results. They’re also really great for price! They’re cheap but they don’t sacrifice quality at all.

In terms of these eyeshadow pots, they’re very cute. Not huge but then you don’t really need to layer them on for them to pop! There’s a huge range to pick from and every one of them spreads on well and stays there. Use with an eyeshadow primer for an even better result!

I love these mostly for when I don't have much time to do my makeup. I can easily use my finger and swipe one of the shades over my lid and blend the edges for a super effortless look from natural to dressy. There is such a huge shade range that it can actually get a bit overwhelming trying to choose.

They have good staying power for a creme to powder shadow though I have hooded eyes so they do crease over time. The pigmentation varies between shades, I find the ultra glitters to be great toppers and the ultra metallics to be the most pigmented. The mattes tend to dry out faster in the pots, just make sure you don't forget to put the lids back on after using them.

I have brought a couple of these now, some I absolutely love, some are just okay. Overall I would purchase again but I would be a little wary on the colours you pick. I would highly recommend a eyeshadow base applied before using them and even a matte colour applied so it helps the super shock pop.

The colour pigmentation is bold and vibrant. They are very soft and silky feeling. They have a different feel to them when swatched compared to other eyeshadows and are easy to blend. Does crease a little after few hours of wear.

I bought a 4 pack of these and am so impressed - the colours are super pigmented and have great stay power. They do drop a bit of residue though so recommend doing before foundation or at least being prepared to tidy up after!
