ColourPop Just Like Magix 15-Pan Shadow Palette

Just Like Magix

ColourPop Just Like Magix 15-Pan Shadow Palette ($24.00 for 0.53 oz.) is a a softer-take on a rainbow-themed color scheme–not quite full-on pastel, though–with a mix of shimmers, mattes, and glitter shades. The quality was consistent with ColourPop’s formulas with the mattes being the easiest and most consistent to work with, while the shimmers were less consistent but easy enough to work with if they were a little lacking.

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.
