Lust for Dusk
ColourPop Lust for Dusk 16-Pan Eyeshadow Palette ($24.00 for 0.64 oz.) includes a mix of more faded or dusty neutral hues with six shimmer shades and 10 matte/semi-matte shades. The quality was decent, though some shades required an eyeshadow primer to build up coverage as there was moderate powderiness throughout most of the matte shades.
Ingredients
Sunset Chaser
Sunset Chaser is a very light, golden copper with strong, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. The eyeshadow had opaque color payoff in a single layer, which had good adhesion to bare skin and a smooth, lightly emollient texture that was easy to work with. This shade wore nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

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.

Shaken
Shaken is a medium, rosy bronze with warm undertones and a bright, metallic finish. It had rich pigmentation in a single layer, which applied evenly to bare skin and blended out without a hitch. The texture was smooth, moderately dense, and had enough binder to ensure the sparkles stayed with the rest of the product. There were signs of fading after eight hours of wear.

Formula Overview

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.

Horizon
Horizon is a very light orange with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was lightly powdery in the pan, but the eyeshadow had mostly opaque, buildable color coverage that remained blendable without being prone to sheering out too readily. It wore nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Take the Lead
Take the Lead is a light-medium taupe with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage that was buildable over an eyeshadow primer as the texture was somewhat powdery and thinner. It lasted well for seven and a half hours on me before fading visibly.

Miser
Miser is a warmer, more orange base with flecks of blue-to-aqua shifting sparkle. The texture was denser and thicker, which gave it a creamier feel to the touch, but made it harder to pick up with a dry brush and get even application. I’d recommend using a dampened brush or fingertip to apply this shade. The eyeshadow stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit.

That’s Neat
That’s Neat is a deep brown with subtle, warm undertones and flecks of gold sparkle over a matte finish. It had opaque color coverage that adhered well to bare skin and blended out nicely along the edges, but there was fallout from those random flecks of sparkle. The texture was somewhat powdery but not the point that made it hard to work with. It wore well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Serve Chilled
Served Chilled is a dusty, plummy taupe with subtle, cool undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow was rather powdery, which resulted in fallout and a tendency to sheer out when applied to bare skin, so I would recommend using it with a primer. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that showed signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear.

Twilight
Twilight is a medium gray with subtle, cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. It had medium pigmentation, which was somewhat buildable, but even over a primer, it was never opaque. The texture was soft, slightly thinner and drier to the touch with moderate powderiness (likely responsible for the sheerness). It wore well for seven and a half hours before fading a bit.
