ColourPop Super Shock Shadow (Drift)

Background:

I wanted to try ColourPop Super Shock Shadows ever since they took the beauty industry by storm with their awesome quality. Today, I will be reviewing the shade "Drift" which is a beautiful cranberry shade. So, let's see how this eyeshadow fared for me.

Price:

$5.00 for 0.07 oz.

Product Description:

Pop this true cranberry in a pearlized finish on your eyes and you may notice some attractive men drifting your way. This long-wearing creme powder formula has an elastic-like texture that is totally party proof. Avoid the fallout from traditional powder shadows and say goodbye to raccoon eyes! This feather soft formula glides on and feels amazing. Super Shock Shadows come in a ton of shades in multiple fabulous finishes. They are also a cruelty free brand.

How to Use:

For maximum coverage, use the fingertip to tap shadow on the eyelid. A flat, fine tip synthetic brush is perfect for detailed application close to the lash line. Using a fluffy brush that has good movement, dip the tip of the brush into the shadow and apply with a "windshield wiper" movement throughout the crease of the eye. This will make your shadow appear soft and diffused like a total pro! When finished, close it up tight! Do not leave the jar opened for long periods of time, you may lose some of the magic that makes the Super Shock Shadow so amazing. 

Packaging:

The packaging comes in a white round pot with a transparent screw lid. The lid has a holographic writing on the top- ColourPop. The bottom of the pot specifies the name of the product- "Drift." The eyeshadow comes in a lavender cardboard box with the name of the product and the ingredients list. 

Texture and Application:

The texture of this eyeshadow is super creamy and buttery. It is a mix between a powder and a cream product. It is creamy to the touch but when you apply it on your eyes, it gives a satiny finish. The product has a scale-like pattern to it. Due to its texture, it is best applied with your fingers. Keep the jar tightly closed, so that the product does not dry out. I didn't have any fall out drying application of the shadow. 

Pigmentation and Coverage:

The eyeshadow is super pigmented. One swipe with your finger is all it takes to get full coverage. Since the texture is creamy, use a synthetic fluffy brush to blend the product. If you want to pack on the color you can use a dense synthetic brush. To get more shine spray the brush with MAC Fix Plus. 

Shade and Finish:

"Drift" is described as a cranberry shade in pearlized finish and it is indeed a stunning warm reddish cranberry shade with specks of sliver, violet, and red sparkles. This color is beautiful for fall season. The eyeshadow blends flawlessly and the color payoff is great. 

Staying Power:

The staying power is really good with this eyeshadow. It stays on for around eight hours even without an eye primer. This eyeshaow does not crease on me even after applying the shadow on my oily lids for the whole day. Overall, I am very happy with the product. 

My Personal Opinion:

This formula and payoff are great, the color is not very unique. But if you do not have any cranberry shades go for it. I find it gives a very 90's vibe on me. It had great payoff and is very easy to apply. I absolutely love ColourPop every time they have a launch I have to buy it, plus they are very affordable and are made in Los Angeles. ♡♡♡
