Lucky Ox
ColourPop Lucky Ox 9-Pan Curated Shadow Palette ($15.00 for 0.45 oz.) includes nine, full-sized eyeshadows housed in a freestyle palette (so they can be rearranged with ease). All of these shades have been released previously across various palettes, so those who have a lot of ColourPop palettes, you’ll want to check for overlap. I felt like it performed in line with the brand’s eyeshadows for the last year or so; the mattes were a little more powdery, while the shimmers have a looser press to them that can sometimes feel drier and tend to perform better by pressing/patting them on.

Full Expose
Full Expose is a light-medium, yellowy beige with warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was more velvety and substantial, so it had actually retained most of its opacity when applied to bare skin. There was some fallout if I wasn’t careful, so it was better applied earlier on if it was going to be above deeper shades. It lasted for seven and a half hours on me 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.

Get Crackin’
Get Crackin’ is a light-medium brown with muted, warm undertones and a sparkling, matte finish. The sparkles seemed finer than usual for the brand, so they did not seem to apply noticeably, which minimized fallout opportunities, too. It had opaque color payoff that lasted well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Prix Fixe
Prix Fixe is a light-medium, golden bronze with warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. The eyeshadow had opaque color coverage that adhered evenly to bare skin, but the texture was more loosely-pressed, so I’d recommend using a lighter hand or a dampened brush to reduce the bit of fallout that occurred when applying it. This shade wore well for eight hours before showing signs of wear.
