I found myself seriously stalking ColourPop Cosmetics website yet again (no judging!) once they released their highly anticipated highlighters. After deciding enough was enough and I needed (there's that word again) them in my life I decided to pick up two beautiful highlighters, a blush and one of their newly released bronzers. Yayyy for new makeup! (I promise I'm on a no-buy now. Pinky swear!) (L-R)
Rain
I'm finally starting to get into the habit of wearing blush again and this is the most perfect cool toned purple color with a matte finish. The pigmentation is truly insane. You can sheer it out or build the color to make more of a statement. You can apply it with your fingertips but I recommend using a stippling brush for more control. I imagine any skin toned beauty could pull this off. Obsessed.
Butterfly Beach
I prefer my highlighters to have lots and lots of shimmer. The glowier the better! There was no way I was passing up this gorgeousness. Butterfly Beach is a beautiful coppery bronzed color with hints of silver glitter. It provides a really metallic sheen and blends onto the skin seamlessly. I like to use my fingertips since it's highly pigmented and apply it to the highest point of my cheekbones. Instant glow!
Carry On
I'm so impressed with my new fave bronzer/blusher Swift that Carry On was yet another necessity. It's a very pretty tan-ish matte color and suitable for most deeper toned beauties. To be honest I found it to not be as pigmented as I generally like but no worries. I find mixing it with Swift adds the perfect punch of natural looking color. I am especially disappointed that it didn't work for me on it's own though and wish I would've went with Poolside, a deeper bronzer by just a tad, instead.
Avalon
A beautiful golden bronze highlighter that is TO DIE FOR! I'm pretty sure this will be replacing Nars Albatross as my holy grail. Yes it is really that amazing!! It's a beautiful color and can be built to your desired wear. It's intense with only one swipe so I recommend using your fingertips to get the best possible application. This will have you glowing for daysss. Just how we like it right?! Right. I can't wait to rock it this summer with nothing more than bold lipstick and lots and lots of mascara. A must have for sure! I wish I would've purchased a back up (no-buy say what?!).
So I've come to the conclusion that I am completely smitten with ColourPop (can you blame me though?!) and I wouldn't have it any other way. *insert heart eyes emoji here*
