* purchased by me*
While I wait for the not so new coral collection to arrive, lets talk yellow :)
And by yellow I mean Lil' Ray of Sunshine collection, inspired by Sunflowers.
Yup Colourpop is back to "drop new collection every week" schedule... Ever since they came back this is the 4th collection that they launched in a month and half... So yeah Hello Colorupop we missed you!
I bought few products from Wild Nothing and Garden Collection - posts will be up soon. I totally skipped Candyland collection, it was just not my jam. Then we had this one and it was followed by the new coral collection, that I already placed my order for.
The whole collection included 9 pan palette, duo of SSShadows, SOL Body glitter, eyeliners and lip products. I settled for palette, eyeliners, Sol Body glitter and SSShadows.
Let's start with the star of the collection, a palette. The Lil' Ray of Sunshine is all matte yellow palette. If you know I am shimmer all the way girl, but well I still need my mattes. But yellow mattes? I know yellow is not my strongest color and yet I am a big fan of Uh Huh Honey palette. Now as Uh Huh Honey have more bright yellow this one is more muted, mustardy and give more Fall vibes. Honey one is more Summer appropriate. I just love toasty and mustardy yellows. In fashion and in makeup. ($14)
Shades are as follow:
- Suns Out - matte cream
- Vitamin D - matte beige, but once applied to an eye looks more yellow
- Happy Place - matte brighter yellow
- Blissed Out - matte light mustardy taupe
- Sunning - matte bright yellow
- Vibey - matte mustard shade. SO beautiful!
- Limoncello - matte toasty mustardy shade
- Chillin'- matte rusty chestnut
- Sun Giant - matte chocolate brown
If you think you look is to matte or you just need that shimmer, there are two new SS Shadows :) Both come in a special packaging. With a pretty Sunflower print on the lids. Both are ultra metallic formula and they complement palette so good coz as you could see the palette is matte. Flower Child is lightest out of both and its this pretty metallic champagne shade. In Harmony is a darker more yellow true gold shade. ($6 each)
Gel eye liner, yes I know you heard me say I hate eyeliners, but ... these are gel liners that I can use in my water lines. I love the shades, as we have gold and brown. They stay put in the water line for really long line. They are twist up style so no need to sharpen it. The gold shade Subzero is a re-promote and brow is called Sunnyvale. Both are different finish as well - Sunnyvale is matte and Subzero is metallic. And did you see the detail on the caps? How cute are the little sunflower heads? Adorable and make them even more special. ($6 each)
And last but not least is the SOL Body dry oil. This is my second body oil and they are so fun :) Its smells like coconuts and it applies nicely and well shimmery. The shade that choose for this collection is permanent shade - Lemon Drop. and it comes in a Limited Edition packaging. ($10)
So what do you guys think? I personally love this collection. If you are interested it is still available on Colourpop Website.
