ColourPop Cookie Cluster 4-Pan Cheek Palette

 

Cookie Cluster

ColourPop Cookie Cluster 4-Pan Cheek Palette includes one cream highlighter, one shimmery powder blush, and two matte blushes: light copper, gold-shimmered orange, matte orange-coral, and matte pink-coral. They were fairly as-marketed with respect to pigmentation; the blushes were more buildable and hard to over-apply, though they had enough payoff to show up on skin.

Butterscotch

Butterscotch is a light copper with warmer undertones and a pearly sheen. It had more buildable coverage applied with a brush and opaque coverage applied with a fingertip, which was as marketed. The texture was smooth and emollient to the touch, but it had that spongy feel that is signature to the formula. It applied well to bare skin and over foundation, and it stayed on nicely for 10 hours before fading a bit.

Extra Sprinkles

Extra Sprinkles is a brighter, light-medium orange with strong, warm undertones and lighter, golden pearl throughout. It had medium, buildable color coverage that applied evenly to my cheeks and blended out well, though it didn’t adhere as well to my drier, arm skin. The consistency felt soft, silky, and smooth, though it was moderately powdery. It lasted well for eight hours before showing signs of fading.

Shortbread

Shortbread is a medium coral with warmer, more orange-leaning undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-sheer, buildable pigmentation (to mostly opaque coverage) with a soft, somewhat powdery texture, though it felt finely-milled and silky to the touch. The product applied better to my cheeks, which are more normal-to-dry compared to my arm, which is quite dry; I didn’t notice the powderiness or issues with adhesion in practice (on my cheeks). It wore well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Oh Gingersnap

Oh Gingersnap is a brighter, medium-dark pink-coral with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had medium, buildable pigmentation paired with a soft, smooth texture that was somewhat powdery, but it didn’t appear dry or dusty on my cheeks. The product applied evenly and blended out without a fuss. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.
