ColourPop Thumper 5-Pan Pressed Powder Palette

Thumper

ColourPop Thumper 5-Pan Pressed Powder Palette is a new, limited edition palette that features new, rectangular pans with two matte eyeshadows, two shimmer eyeshadows, and one sparkle-matte eyeshadow. They came together better on the lid than I expected, but there was a lot of fallout; like to the point where after each use of product, I had to hold the palette over a trash can to tap out the excess to use another color because the kick up was really THAT much. Everything was incredibly powdery, despite being fairly pigmented and blendable, so if fallout isn’t a deal-breaker, it might be lovely. It’s just so much more powdery than even recent ColourPop palettes!

ColourPop Miss Bunny Pressed Powder Shadow

Miss Bunny

Miss Bunny is a medium peach with moderate, warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. The texture was slightly drier and more loosely-pressed, so it applied best by packing it on with a pressing or patting motion, though I’d use it with a dampened brush for better, smoother adhesion and to minimize fallout. It wore well for seven and a half hours before fading a bit.

Friend Owl

Friend Owl is a very light taupe with neutral undertones and a matte finish. It had mostly opaque color coverage with a moderately powdery consistency that was prone to fallout during application. I found it worked well layered with the other two matte shades in the palette, but it turned grayish when used with less gray-toned shades (going outside the palette) so it would need to be used before other, more mid-tone and deeper shades. It lasted for seven and a half hours on me before fading visibly.

I’m Thumpin’

I’m Thumpin’ is a very light green with strong, warm golden undertones and a slightly less warm-toned pearl that gave it a soft, frosted sheen. It had opaque color coverage that applied well to bare skin and diffused easily. The texture was a little drier, so it didn’t sit as flatteringly on my skin as some of the brand’s other shimmers have without really pressing it into the skin (or using it damp).

Long Ears

Long Ears is a light taupe with neutral-to-cool undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation with a soft, blendable texture that was moderately powdery and prone to some fallout during application as a result. It wasn’t quite as powdery as the other matte shades in the palette, though. This shade stayed on nicely for seven and a half hours before fading noticeably.

Great Big Feet

Great Big Feet is a medium-dark taupe with cool, almost purplish, undertones and a matte finish with loose sparkle throughout. The sparkles did not bind with the underlying eyeshadow, so there was a lot of fallout from the sparkles, but the texture itself was also quite powdery, which resulted in additional fallout. I was surprised that the opaque coverage actually… maintained despite so much fallout and excess product kicked up in the pan. It lasted decently for seven and a half hours before fading visibly.
