My cherry picked colourpop collection | Edit 1

I am always get asked about my colourpop picks on my Instagram so I thought I should share what I picked from this US Makeup brand. My collection is not huge and is definitely cherry picked but I love most of the bits and I am glad I picked these up.

I did buy few other liquid lipsticks, lippie stix and eyeshadows but I ended up giving them as gifts to my loved ones so I will only be sharing swatches of the ones I kept in my collection.

By the way, I paid a good amount of international shipping cost (via DHL through MyMallBox) for my package to arrive here in the UK and I bought few from Insta stores.

• Lippie Stix

Lippie stix are twist up lip crayons that comes in various shades and finishes – satin, matte and matte x. Each lippie stix retails for $5 on Colourpop website. I bought Lumiere, Frida, Cami, Poppin, Brink, Hype Girl and Brink out of which I gave away Frida and Hype Girl as gifts.

Lumiere – Lumiere is a dusty toned pink highly pigmented lipstick in a creamy matte finish. This was created by famous YouTuber and Influencer Kathleen Lights. The shade looks similar to Mac Mehr lipstick and is a gorgeous shade for Fall/Autumn. This is not very long lasting but is very comfortable to wear. You may need to reapply after couple of drinks or a meal.

Brink – Brink is a warm dusty taupe shade that looks absolutely gorgeous on most skin tones. This lip shade was created by @brittanysuleiman and was inspired by Kylie Jenner lip shade. This lipstick is highly pigmented and is comfortable creamy matte formula. Brink has to be my favorite out of all lippie stix I have.

Cami – Cami is a muted medium dark rosy pink with warm undertones in a ‘matte x’ finish. Its a true matte lipstick and long lasting than the creamy mattes. It is MLBB kind of shade for so many.

Poppin – Poppin is the only bright lippie stix i have in my colourpop collection. It is a vibrant fuchsia shade with super matte (matte x) finish. It applies smoothly on lips and has velvety feel. It is long wearing lipsticks and is highly pigmented. You just need a one stroke on your lips and you are done!

• Liquid Lipsticks

I bought four liquid lipsticks – Solow (Ultra matte), Bumble(ultra matte), Frick n Frack (satin) and Dopey (satin) out of which I gave away Frick n Frack and Dopey to my Niece and Sister. Liquid lipsticks retail for $6 on the website. Insta stores are slightly costlier as the shipping and customs fee is involved for UK customers.

Solow – Solow is a mid toned neutral pink that works for all skin tones but looks extremely beautiful on fair skin. This shade is a cool toned pink for me and i like to pair this with dark or warm lip liners underneath. The formula is ultra matte and can be slightly drying after a while so make sure you prep your lips before wearing this lipstick.

Bumble – Bumble is such a gorgeous muted brick red for me. Colourpop describes this as dusty warm terracotta shade. Trust me, I wore this continuously for few days when I discovered this shade. This shade complements my skintone and I am sure this will look good on any complexion. The formula is again ultra matte but the shade is everything! You really need to have this in your collection.

I won’t bore you with loads of reading so I have divided this Colourpop collection post into categories..Stay tuned for more 🙂

Loads of love
