ColourPop x Star Wars Eyeshadow Palette - 4 minutes read
Star Wars
ColourPop Star Wars 15-Pan Shadow Palette is a new, limited edition 15-pan palette includes shimmers, mattes, and three Super Shock Shadows. The eyeshadows functioned mostly as expected for the brand–pigmented, blendable, and with an eight-hour wear time–but there were a few duds in the palette.
Look Using this Product

Outer Rim
Outer Rim is a deeper, somewhat warmer purple base with lavender and silvery-blue micro-sparkle specks scattered throughout a cream-to-powder finish. Its translucency gave it a more watercolor look.

Smooth, lightly emollient, wet to the touch but turned powder-like once it came into contact with skin

Long-wearing (10 hours typically for this formula)

Kessel Run
Kessel Run is a brilliant lavender-silver with chilly undertones and a metallic sheen. In the pan, it seemed more neutral, but in person, it was pretty lavender-ish.

Blendable, easy to work with

Galactic Empire
Galactic Empire is a deeper cherry red with cold undertones and a glossy finish. Due to the texture, it was best pushed into position and then gently dispersed only as needed.
Opaque color coverage
Slightly firmer, somewhat stiff, and on the thicker side
Best applied with a firm, flat brush
Long-wearing (8 hours typically for this formula)
Alliance
Alliance is a taupe-brown with cool undertones and a matte finish in a medium-dark shade.

Best applied with a firm, synthetic brush, blendable
Long-wearing (10 hours typically for this formula)

First Mate
First Mate is a deeper, medium-dark brown with warm undertones and gold micro-sparkle flakes strewn throughout a more matte texture.

Republic
Republic is a dark, deep crimson with cold undertones and a matte texture. This colour was more difficult for me to work with than other of the brand’s red-hued hues.
Semi-opaque color coverage
Moderately powdery, prone to sheering out and fallout
Somewhat blendable
Long-wearing (8 hours typically for this formula)
Star Destroyer
Star Destroyer is a deep black with a matte texture and cooler undertones. This was a little more difficult to hold in place/as intense as it appeared at first.

Soft, moderately powdery, had light fallout
Blendable but use with care to avoid sheering out
Long-wearing (8 hours typically for this formula)
