COLOURPOP X MAKE-A-WISH – SUPER SHOCK SHADOWS

2 Comments

Wow, that was a long break away! I’ve been super busy with uni but I’m finally back to play with makeup!

I recently purchased the Colourpop Super Shock Shadows made in collaboration with Make-A-Wish. At the time I bought them, Colourpop was a risky site to buy from because the shipping costs and customs fees could be huge. After such amazing reviews though, I’ve been desperate to try them. They retail for $5.00 which is about £4.00… bargain. Plus, 20% of the profits from this collection go to Make-A-Wish until 11 Jan 2019.

Below is the rundown of what I bought, how much for (at time of purchase) and my take after testing them for almost a month.

I’ve included an example look from each palette to show the pigment, and starred the shadows I used in the palette. My eyeshadow skills really aren’t amazing, and my looks could be a lot more adventurous, but I hope it simply shows that the shadows have so much potential and do an amazing job even with me!
