On the List
ColourPop On the List 12-Pan Pressed Powder Shadow Palette ($18.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a new, Ultra-exclusive palette that included seven matte shades and five shimmer shades across a darker, earthy color story. The products performed consistently with the brand’s eyeshadow formula; the matte shades were pigmented, blendable, and a little powdery, while the shimmers (except one) were pigmented, blendable, and picked up well with a dry brush.

Formula Overview
$4.50/0.05 oz. – $90.00 Per Ounce
The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing” and “adheres easily to the eyes.” Most of the shades have semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation that applies well to bare skin, blends out without issue, and lasts for seven to eight hours.
The matte eyeshadows tend to be a little more powdery, though soft and finely-milled, in the pan, while the shimmers have a creamier, dense consistency. Occasionally, the more sparkly or metallic shades apply better with fingertips or a dampened brush.
