Colourpop Highlighter in "Hippo" Review and Swatches


I recently put in my first Colourpop order and one of the items I purchased is a highlight in the shade Hippo. If you are not familiar with Colourpop, they are a LA based cosmetic company and most known for their lip colors and eyeshadows. They have a very low price point with most items in the $5-10 range. This highlights are $8.00. If you are a new customer you can sign up and receive a $5 off coupon code. All of their face products are a soft cream and are best applied with your fingers or a flat synthetic brush. You can purchase these products at colourpop.com.

I have been on the hunt for a cool, purple toned highlight which is why I chose the shade Hippo. This shade reminds me a lot of Nars Copacabana, which I absolutely love. The texture of these highlighters is a bouncy cream like texture. It kind of reminds me of the Maybelline bouncy blushes, but maybe a little less bouncy. 

This shade is more on the sheer side, but I found that I could easily build it up by applying a few layers. The best way I found to apply it is with your fingers. This shade is really beautiful and looks really pretty with a cool tone eye look. I really recommend checking out Colourpop products. So far I have had good luck with most of their products and I love the low price.

















I hope you liked this review and if you have any products you would like me to review make sure to leave me a comment! (:

  1. Ooh, you're right, it is similar to NARS Copacabana! I can't make myself buy the full size Copacabana because it's so pricey but this seems like a great alternative. I've never tried the ColourPop highlighters but I like the other things I've tried from them a lot. :)
