ColourPop Strawberry Shortcake Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Strawberry Shake

Colour Pop Strawberry Shortcake 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette is a new palette that features a mix of coral, pink, and red with a smattering of peach hues. All of the eyeshadows were pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing with little to complain about. There was a bit of fallout with Delish and light powderiness with shades like Paper Straw and Shake It Up that was mostly confined to the pan (so not prone to sheering out on the lid).

There are three shades that are “not intended for use in the immediate eye area” and are “Pressed Pigments,” and those shades are: My Milkshake, Take a Sip, and Daiquiri.

Colour Pop My Milkshake Pressed Powder Pigment

My Milkshake

My Milkshake is a rich, medium-dark pink with neutral-to-cool undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which adhered evenly and smoothly to bare skin. The texture felt a little dusty in the pan, but it blended out without issues. The color wore nicely for nine hours before I noticed any fading, but it did leave a stain behind.

Colour Pop Whipped Pressed Powder Shadow

Whipped

Whipped is a medium-dark pink with strong, warm undertones and a bright, metallic finish. It had rich pigmentation with a soft, lightly creamy texture that was dense without being too thick, so it applied well and didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture. The eyeshadow stayed on well for eight and a half hours on me before I noticed any fading.

Colour Pop Woke Pressed Powder Shadow

Woke

Woke is a muted, medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had excellent color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly to bare skin without sheering out too readily. The consistency was soft, somewhat powdery in the pan, so there was a bit of fallout during application, but it blended out easily. This shade lasted well for eight hours on me before fading visibly.

Colour Pop Paper Straw Pressed Powder Shadow

Paper Straw

Paper Straw is a light-medium peach with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had rich pigmentation that applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well without sheering out too readily, but there was some fallout due to the texture being more powdery. It wore well for eight hours on me before it showed signs of fading.

Colour Pop Take a Sip Pressed Powder Pigment

Take a Sip

Take a Sip is a bright, pinky-red with subtle, cool undertones and a mostly matte finish; there were a few stray sparkles throughout it, but they did not translate much. It was intensely pigmented with a soft, blendable texture that felt a touch dry but wasn’t difficult to work with on my skin. The color stayed on well for nine hours and left behind a strong, fuchsia stain.

Colour Pop Delish Pressed Powder Shadow

Delish

Delish is a light-medium peach with warm undertones and a sparkling finish. It had a lightly creamy texture, so it had some slip, and it applied best by pressing and patting onto the lid with a flat, synthetic brush or fingertips to minimize fallout. The pigmentation was semi-opaque and buildable to full coverage with a second layer or with a wet brush. It lasted nicely for eight hours on me before fading visibly.

Colour Pop Berry Fine Pressed Powder Shadow

Berry Fine

Berry Fine is a bright, medium pink-coral base with warmer, gold shimmer that gave it a metallic finish. It had rich pigmentation with a soft, lightly dusty texture that applied evenly and blended out without difficulty. There was a smidgen of fallout if I wasn’t careful to press and pat it into place initially. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.

Colour Pop Daiquiri Pressed Powder Pigment

Daiquiri

Daiquiri is a bright, medium-dark red with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. It was intensely pigmented with a smooth texture that was a little thin but not too thin or stiff in the pan. The color seemed to darken slightly after application, so I found that it was hard to get the true red out of it without a white base. The eyeshadow lasted well for nine hours before fading but left moderate staining behind.

Colour Pop Shake It Up Pressed Powder Shadow

Shake It Up

Shake It Up is a medium-dark pink with warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was lightly dusty in the pan, but it wasn’t prone to fallout or sheering out too readily, so it had the blendability necessary to diffuse the edges but kept its opaque coverage where I wanted it. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably on my lid.
