ColourPop Flexitarian Super Shock Cheek Highlighter Review, Swatches and FOTD

Don’t you love how a good highlighter can give you a subtle glow and your skin a luminous, radiant look?

Today’s post is on one of my favourite highlighter from the house of Colourpop. It is Flexitarian Supershock Cheek highlighter. So lets get into the nitty gritty details…

What ColourPop says:-
“We took our famous Super Shock formula and added luminous pearls and glimmer to create the perfect crème powder highlighter.”

Price:-
$8 for 0.15oz

Packaging:-
The highlighter comes safely enclosed in a round shaped case with screw lid. Lightweight and compact. The transparent lids make it easy to detect the actual shade inside.

Shade:-
Intense silvery champagne; like diamond on cheeks, absolutely a breathtaking shade and looks amazing on all complexions. The glitters are so minute, so soft and don’t at all spread across your face making you look like a disco ball. Too impressive!!

Texture:-

The thing I love most about the “Super Shock” range of products from Coloupop. The texture is to die for; bouncy, kind of spongy and has a cushiony soft feel, oh...so relaxing. The powder-gel kind of formula is super soft, smooth, feels light as air and blends like a dream. As I said earlier, the glitters are “oh so smooth”, not at all chunky and don’t fall a bit and don’t move to the rest of your face.

Pigmentation:-

Decently pigmented. For me, I love subtle glow and one swirl with my fingertip is enough for two cheeks. However, if you are a fan of Instagram highlighter trend, you might need two or more swirls. Yes, you can pack it on to the intensity you like.

Staying Power:-

Staying power is amazing too. It stays ALL DAY.

Application:-
I always love using fingertips for highlighters. Fingertip application provides the highest coverage with the tiniest amount. If you want sheer look, you can go for a fan brush.

Summing up my likes and Dislikes:-

Final Thoughts:-

Aesthetically pleasing. This highlighter is the best highlighter I have ever used and can give big brands a run for money. After application you can immediately see how radiant your face looks. I have used it on bare skin and over base products, the results were equally satisfying.

Innovative formula, incredible color payoff, long staying powder and a super affordable price tag, I recommend this highlighter to everyone. It is absolutely stunning.
