Making Bad Look So Good: Colourpop x Disney Villains

@bufferingbetty

It’s good to be bad.

Princesses are cool and all but have you tried being a little bad? It’s so much more fun. Internet beauty brand, Colourpop, has released a collection featuring some of baddest of them all. Even if Disney isn’t your thing, the colors will still have trapped in their grasp. Personally, I would’ve loved to seen a collection for Ratcliffe, Gaston, + Scar. But that’s just me. True Confession: I would love nothing more than to be cast as a Disney Villain.

Meet Disney Villains

This collection is exclusive to colourpop.com!

The Palette!

Misunderstood.

A mix of mattes and metallic shadows to make your evil glower all the more ferocious.

Colourpop Is Coming To Sephora -Here's a Sneak peek of what's to come!

@bufferingbetty

Now we can ball on a budget at Sephora!

As if Halloween wasn't sweet enough, this year Colourpop, everyone's favorite affordable indie brand, will launch online and in-store at Sephora! They will carry some classic Colourpop faves and brand new goodies!!!

Sure, we're excited to swatch a Super Shook Shadow IRL -but the real craze is about Colourpop keeping their same low prices!

Well, mostly. But let's look at what's new first.

Then we'll talk prices. 

The first is this lip gloss trio. The Feelin Fine Lip Gloss Trio ($18) includes three duo chrome glosses in Fairy Me, Obviously, Lay-Z. All brand new shades! The gilded cap is everything!

Next, we have the Golden State of Mind ($26) eye shadow palette.full of shimmer shades!

The sunset colors and the golden butterfly on the packaging are beautifully relaxed. It reminds me of what Colourpop represents - a sort of breezy ease of makeup with accessibility to everyone.. It's says, "You're here for fun and don't have to be a makeup expert to apply makeup."

Colourpop says that the price point hasn't changed. 

In the case of the bundle of lip glosses, prices did slightly go up. If you were to purchase a lip gloss trio from Colourpop.com right now, you'd pay $15, It's true for their collab with influencer iluvsarahii. Her lip gloss trio costs $15; so does  the Can You Knot ultra satin lip trio, and even the Out And About ultra matte liquid lipstick trio. All of these trios are $15.

The bundle at Sephora is $18. Individually, an ultra satin lipstick, a lip gloss, or an ultra matte liquid lipstick would cost $6 each. Take out your calculator and you'll see there isn't a money saving gem with the Sephora bundle. So buying the bundle at Sephora wouldn't save you any money the way it would on Colourpop's website. 

So you will pay full price per product that is featured in a bundle v. saving a few bucks the way you would on Colourpop's website. 

What are your thoughts about that?

Here are a few more new goodies launching tomorrow (10/31)!!

With this $6 Concealer, You can look airbrushed, NO FILTER NEEDED!

By: @acevallee

Concealer and foundation are the toughest buys for me. I’m so picky, and even THAT is an understantement. I’ve also always been one to splurge on concealer with the exception of LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer, which is a phenomenal gem. When Colourpop Cosmetics announced that they were releasing Concealers a while back I had to get in on it because so far, I'm in love with a majority of their entire line. 

When they first released their NO FILTER CONCEALERS I picked up a few and I've been using them since and I absolutely love the product. Issa Hit out of the ballpark. I'm obsessed with the soft wide tipped brush on the wand. It swipes on so perfectly and comfortably without skipping or poking me. A little goes a very long way, I’m talking LONG DISTANCE! The coverage is INSANE. You you suffer from Dark Circles either hereditary, or caused by insomnia or life's bullshit... you can use this little fella and look picture perfect. You can still control the coverage if you want or need a bit less, by using as little product as possible and sheering it out to a medium coverage with a bit of facial moisturizer. 

Created using soft blurring pigments, Colourpop's No Filter Concealer will make you look like a well rested ethereal enchantress!

The formula is super creamy and a bit thick yet still featherweight without caking up (HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? Colourpop please spill these secrets). It is also brightening AF! I love that it leaves this blurring, soft focus effect that although it sits as a matte finish, you are still left airbrushed and glowing. 

My super sensitive skin reacted well to this concealer and although I have mega dry skin, as long as I moisturize really well it will not be a problem for me. 

I picked up 3 shades because purchasing online can be a bit tricky, I went with 3 shades from the Medium skin tone range, 30-Medium, 35-Medium Tan and 40-Golden all though all 3 work well, i found that my perfect match is 35-Medium Tan, which I watched on my hand in this photo.

You can also bump up a few shades for contouring or drop down a few shades lighter for highlighting if that's something you're interested in. For less that 20 bucks you can get 3 shades for a full face of conceal, highlight and contour with high end quality. 

Colourpop staff has stated that more shades are in the works and they currently have 5 shades each for Fair tones, Medium tones and Dark tones. 

This concealer is the perfect purse size and contains a decent amount of product (about 0.14oz) considering you don't even need much for full coverage. The minimal packaging is clean and perfect. 

The recently just restocked and I got myself a few for backup and if you want to try, head over to colourpop.com and grab a few, at $6 a pop you can’t go wrong.
