ColourPop Rhapsody Palette Review & Swatches

Rhapsody

ColourPop Rhapsody 5-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($10.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a warm-toned neutral color story that included three matte eyeshadows and two shimmer eyeshadows. Four of the five shades were pigmented, blendable, and easy enough to work with (though watch out for the sparkle matte!), while one shimmer was weaker in coverage and texture.

This palette is one of five in a holiday vault, though ColourPop said they would be available individually when I asked, but they have not appeared individually on the site. It’s not realistic for me to review it as a set (takes much longer, but I also started testing them across sets already, and the system is better setup for a palette, not five palettes within a set, for readability!), so I decided to review them individually still.

Symphony

Symphony is a light-medium, yellowy-gold with moderate, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that was only buildable to higher coverage if applied with a fingertip. The texture was more emollient, but slightly thin, so it worked best by pressing it into place initially. It lasted well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

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.

Episodic

Episodic is a rich, deeper yellow with strong, warm orange undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage paired with a smooth, blendable texture that was easy to use as it wasn’t too powdery nor too firmly-pressed into the pan. This shade stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Spontaneous

Spontaneous is a bright, medium orange base with lighter, yellowy-gold shimmer throughout a metallic finish. The eyeshadow had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which adhered evenly to bare skin as the consistency was lightly emollient and not prone to fallout. There were signs of fading present after eight hours of wear.

Compose

Compose is a muted, medium orange with warmer, yellower undertones and a mostly matte finish. There were a fair number of gold flecks of sparkle throughout, but very few actually translated to my lid, so there was minimal fallout during application but certainly could be some as they didn’t bind with the underlying powder at all. It had opaque color payoff with a smooth, blendable texture that was somewhat powdery. It wore well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Expression

Expression is a medium brown with subtle, warm reddish undertones and a matte finish. The consistency was soft, blendable, and somewhat powdery in the pan, but it wasn’t prone to fallout or sheering out too readily. It had opaque color payoff that stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

ColourPop That's Taupe Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

That's Taupe Colour Pop That’s Taupe 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($14.00 for 0.30 oz.) is a new, nine-pan palette that is taupe-themed. It includes five matte eyeshadows, three shimmer eyeshadows, and one Super Shock Shadow (Slated). The matte eyeshadows were fairly smooth and velvety, blendable, and easy to work with, while the shimmers were so-so. I found the shimmers to be drier and more prone to fallout and lacking shine unless applied with a dampened brush (which wasn’t always the case with ColourPop’s shimmer formula).

ColourPop Wine & Only Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Wine and Only ColourPop Wine and Only 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($14.00 for 0.36 oz.) is the newest release–and I think one of the last of the year–that includes a mix of shimmers and matte shades in a wine-inspired color story. The mattes were nicer than the shimmers, on the whole, though Grapeful has a ton of sparkle and not much that keeps it bound with the base, so that one had a lot of fallout. The shimmers were decent but did not perform as well as some past shimmers have from the brand. For those keeping count, there are a few Pressed Pigments, which come with the warning that they are not intended for use around the immediate eye area under FDA regulations, though these types of pigments are approved for usage on the eye in areas like the EU.

Fenty Beauty Mauve Wives, Fenty Glow & Honey Waffles Gloss Bomb Creams Reviews & Swatches

Mauve Wives Fenty Beauty Mauve Wives Gloss Bomb Cream ($19.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a muted, medium mauve with subtle, cool undertones and a glossy, cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation in one layer, which applied evenly and spread easily across my lips, but there was a bit of product that settled into my lip lines–not quite enough to be noticeable from a normal viewing distance. The texture was non-sticky, smooth, and plush without being too thick, though I felt like it was thicker than ideal for building up color as a second layer did feel noticeably thick and heavier. It wore well for four hours and felt moisturizing over time. FURTHER READING : Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).
