ColourPop 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).
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.

What should I do if I genuinely can’t pray whilst at school? We have break and lunchtime but there’s no proper place to do wudu, and I can’t keep my wudu from fajr. Any help?
Kaleidos 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.

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.

ColourPop Send Nudes 9-Pan Shadow Palette (Plastic) ($12.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a warm-toned neutral color story that included six mostly matte eyeshadows coordinated with three shimmer shades. 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.
