Hi guys,
I’ve wanted to buy Colourpop makeup for sooooo long but I live in the UK and didn’t want to pay for shopping AND customs. But, I decided to take the plunge and me and my friend both ordered a load of makeup to reach a total of over $51 (which meant free shipping) and split the customs charge (which was £17??!!).
Ultra Satin Lip – Point Zero
I just loooove this colour. I love cool tone brown shades and this is the perfect colour! It’s also a satin lip which means that it wont dry my lips out too much as well … thank god.
Ultra Glossy Lip – Tight Fit
I’ve never really been into gloss but the past few months I’ve just been obsessing over glossy lips! I love the fact that this is kind of sheer but has some little flecks of glitter in it!
Ultra Glossy Lip – Lay-z
This is just a little darker than tight fit and also has little glitter particles in it!
Lippie Pencil – BFF2
I was in desperate need of a nude/brown-ish lip liner because I am so awful at applying lipstick without one and this was the perfect colour!
Supernova Shadow – Moon Lit
I’ve seen so many people rave about these glitters, so I thought that I would try them out. So many people have compared them to the Stila magnificent metals so I thought I’d try them out both side by side to see whether it really is a dupe.
Medium Shader Brush
I was also in need of a shader brush and I also wanted to test out some Colourpop brushes because they’re sooo cheap and I never really hear anyone talking about them.
Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed.
That’s such a good idea to split the shipping cost between you and also ensures you buy enough to get free shipping. I can tell that you’re really into brown lipsticks at the moment! Are you more cool or warm toned? I’m cool toned and so I struggle to find darker lipsticks that look good on me because they need a blue base rather than a reddish base. Any suggestions appreciated. xx

I know!!! I think I might do it again sometime because the makeup is so cheap!!! I’m not really sure, I like both tbh, I think it just depends what mood I’m in haha! Huda Beauty liquid lipstick in Flirt is a great cool toned brown!! If you search dupes for it on google I think you could find some cheaper ones! Xx

I love Colourpop so much, I just placed an order recently too. That’s smart to order with your friend to get free shipping!

Hahaha I know it’s such good quality but sooo cheap! I just wish they had a store in the UK too so we don’t have to pay customs 😭 I was tempted to buy the brow pencil, are they any good?!

That would be nice! I hope they expand to have brick and mortar stores in the future. I’m not sure if the brow pencil are good yet, but they’re only $5 so I figured I should try them!
