Nickel and DimedColourPop Nickel and Dimed Pressed Powder Shadow Quad ($9.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a new, grayscale-themed color story that included two shimmery shades and two matte shades designed to coordinate with the brand’s temporary hair color range. All four shades were pigmented, blendable, and lasted for around eight hours on me and were consistent with the brand’s past eyeshadow formula (so mattes were a little powdery but still easy to work with).

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. Browse all of our ColourPop Pressed Powder Shadow swatches.

Solar SailorKaleidos Solar Sailor Space Age Highlighter ($14.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bright, white gold with subtle, warm undertones and an intense, metallic finish. It had mostly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, despite the actual base being more translucent, as it was chocked full of shimmer and pearl. The texture was fairly smooth to the touch, so it wasn’t too firmly nor too loosely-pressed in the pan, but it was not the most finely-milled of powders. The highlighter applied evenly to bare skin, blended out well, and didn’t accentuate my skin’s natural texture. It wore nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview$14.00/0.1 oz. - $140.00 Per Ounce The formula is supposed to have "vibrant, color-shifting" shades that have an "ultra-lightweight, smooth texture that practically melts onto skin." They are described as being "translucent yet highlight reflective" with a "multi-chrome finish." I had different experiences across the range, so it was not the most consistent of ranges. They did, on average, apply a little better in practice than they appeared initially swatched. For the most part, the regularly-priced ($14 at the time of publishing) shades were more like intense duochromes than true multi-chromes to me, and I do think the price reflects that (as their true multichromes are $36 each). They had translucent bases across the board with some shades having stronger initial coverage than others, but they produced a noticeable sheen and shift on my skin. The texture was what varied from shade to shade with some shades feeling drier, almost crumbly, and being particularly prone to emphasizing skin texture, even though I don't have that much visible texture on my cheeks (this is not a common issue for me, it can happen but it is infrequent that I really feel a highlighter emphasizes my texture!) while other shades were firmer but applied more smoothly on my skin. I liked the tones and shade range more so than the formula, but a couple of shades were really lovely to work with. They tended to wear around eight hours on my skin before fading visibly, though the chunkier, more sparkly shades had visible migration around the six-hour mark.

Formula Overview$13.99/0.06 oz. - $233.17 Per Ounce The formula is supposed to have "16 hour" wear with a "matte" finish that isn't "flat" and leaves lips "feeling comfortable." The lipstick was very pigmented, and the texture, while delivering a matte finish, felt smooth, velvety, and comfortable to apply as the lipstick glided across my lips without tugging at all. I was impressed by how even and forgiving the finish was, though, as often silicone-heavy matte lipsticks can pill or emphasize lip texture (dimethicone is the first ingredient in this formula). It was fairly transfer-resistant, though it did break down more readily as soon as one ate a meal, so it tended to last as long as the time between application and one's next meal. So, as a result, the only downside was that it was not a product that--realistically--lasted 16 hours, which I'd consider needing to make it past at least one meal well enough to endure until the next meal... at least. There was a sweet, slightly powdery floral scent but no discernible taste. I did feel like the scent was more subdued than L'Oreal's scent typically is.

Formula Overview- The formula is supposed to have "one-stroke luminosity" with the "payoff of a liquid highlighter." The "lighter shade to highlight and the darker shade to bronze" to get "buildable radiance." It is a gel-powder hybrid formula, which means that the feel of the powder was smooth to the touch but firmer and denser, though not stiff to work with, but was best paired with a moderately-dense brush in order to pick up product evenly. The advantage of the gel-powder formula is in how the product applies, as the powder goes on evenly and almost blends itself as it "melts" on the skin, which results in a more seamless, luminous finish that doesn't accentuate skin texture. Most of the shades were mostly opaque to opaque in coverage, though could be used readily with a lighter hand for sheerer, more buildable coverage, whereas the luminosity was buildable as the more product layered, the more intense the shine/highlight effect was. From the limited description by the brand, it did seem like the payoff wasn't intended to be as opaque as it ended up being, so it was rated downward primarily for that purpose, as the shades blendable, easy to work with, and long-wearing otherwise. On my skin, most shades lasted around eight to eight and a half hours before fading visibly. Browse all of our Tom Ford Beauty Shade and Illuminate Highlighter swatches.

FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent). Top Dupes
Formula Overview$16.00/0.15 oz. - $106.67 Per Ounce The formula is supposed to have "bold, buildable pigment" that "swipes on easily" and has a "no-budge, no-smudge finish." The liquid eyeshadow has a lightweight, fluid consistency that felt like a cross between water and gel, which ensured that the product glided over my skin, blended out evenly, but wasn't prone to settling into fine lines. Most shades were pigmented with little product required for it but a few shades were more semi-opaque. They dry down fairly quickly, so I would recommend working one area at a time if more diffused/blended areas were desired. It would also be prudent to go in with fingertips or a fluffy brush to diffuse edges if choosing to wear the product all over the lid. Due to the pigmentation, consistency, and dry down time, they did lend themselves to eyeliner and more graphic eyeshadow shapes/lines. Once they set, they were quite budge-proof and lasted for 12 hours without fading or creasing on me when worn as an eyeshadow and 12 hours as an eyeliner.

It was one of the better color stories released for Target as it had a good mix of depth across the shades, making it more versatile. The formulas for the eyeshadows in the palettes made for Target seemed slightly different than the brand’s average formula. The shimmers were more loosely-pressed and a little dry, which made them more prone to fallout during application and using a firmer, flatter brush and/or fingertip seemed to help them adhere more evenly. The matte shades seemed less powdery compared to the brand’s typical mattes and slightly thinner, though in a neutral way, as they seemed to apply evenly and blend out without issues overall.

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.

It swatched a lot darker than it appeared on my lips (I did a double-take and triple-checked in person!).

Formula Overview$12.99/0.14 oz. - $92.79 Per Ounce The formula is supposed to have "no-budge" color that stays on for "16 hours" without smudging or transferring. It had a lightweight, smooth, and spreadable consistency that was quite fluid but typically not too thin or too runny, so it was easy enough to work with on my lips. Those with less lip real-estate may want to use just one side of the applicator initially, though. The majority of shades had opaque coverage delivered in one layer. With this formula, you'll want to give it at least 15 seconds to "set," which is when it turns tackier, adheres, and doesn't transfer, but it is better to give it 30 seconds, then gently press lips together. There is a little tackiness that comes off but no visible color. (Before it is set, it is easy to get on teeth, but once it is set, then it doesn't transfer onto teeth!) I found that the initial "set" phase can feel a little clingy--not uncomfortably so, but I know I'm wearing something--but it gets increasingly flexible and more comfortable after an hour or two of wear. The product was forgiving of lip texture imperfections, and it was quite long-wearing. There were a few shades that had a more jelly-like, slightly translucent finish rather than a more "vinyl" like, creamier sheen. I had no issues with the color lasting through drinks (water, latte) and one meal, but two meals definitely wore it down more noticeably. It seemed to wear away evenly. I was impressed by the overall longevity but in particular the comfort: really quite comfortable and dare I say, lightly hydrating, over the 10-14 hours the shades wore for. The lighter shades tended to wear away more quickly compared to richer/deeper hues, which is typical of most lip color formulas. It had a very sweet, caramel-like scent but no discernible taste. I didn't notice the scent much after the initial application. Browse all of our Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor swatches.

Quick Shop: Sephora, Nordstrom, Beautylish, SaksIntensity 2 (Highlight)Intensity 2 (Highlight) is a light-medium copper with moderate, warm undertones and fine pearl that gave it a satin-like sheen once dried down.
FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent). Top Dupes
Formula Overview- It's described as a "cream-to-satin formula" that is supposed to "blend seamlessly into skin for natural dimension." The formula has highlighter and contouring shades, which can be used as described, layered, and can also be used to add warmth to the skin. The texture had a lightweight, thin, and moderately emollient feel to the touch, and it didn't fully set or dry down, but it did dry down to a more satin-like sheen after about 20 seconds. The product applied well over bare skin as well as tapped on top of foundation. The shades were sheerer in coverage, as marketed, which did result in the highlighter hues looking more similar on me despite having different depths initially. The contour hues tended to have more visible coverage initially but as expected, the formula naturally sheered out quite a bit, so as soon as I started to apply and work with the contour shade, it had sheer to semi-sheer coverage. I could layer to get more medium coverage if desired. The highlighter shades tended to last around seven and a half hours, while the contour shades lasted closer to eight and a half hours on me.
