ColourPop Tender Loving Cancer Eyeshadow Quad Review & Swatches

by Jeremy

Tender Loving Cancer

ColourPop Tender Loving Cancer Pressed Powder Shadow Quad ($9.00 for 0.21 oz.) includes two shimmer shades (lavender, light duo-chrome) and two matte shades (dusty coral and blackened plum). One of the shimmer shades was sheerer and thinner, while the remaining shades were a little powdery/drier. Overall, it was a decent product, but it would benefit from an eyeshadow primer and someone who prefers to use their shimmers damp/with a fingertip.

So Devoted

So Devoted is a medium-dark lavender with cooler undertones and warmer, soft gold shimmer, and larger flecks of sparkle. It had opaque pigmentation paired with a smooth, more loosely-pressed texture, but there was enough binder in the formula that if I pressed and patted it into place, it had good adhesion with minimal fallout. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview

$4.50/0.05 oz. – $90.00 Per Ounce

The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing” and “adheres easily to the eyes.” Most shades have semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation that applies well to bare skin, blends without issue and lasts seven to eight hours.

The matte eyeshadows tend to be a little more powdery, though soft and finely milled, in the pan, while the shimmers have a creamier, dense consistency. The more sparkly or metallic shades occasionally apply better with fingertips or a dampened brush.

In My Feels

In My, Feels has an almost transparent base full of blue-to-violet shifting pearls. The texture was more emollient and thinner, so it did apply best with a fingertip or a dampened brush for higher coverage. With a dry brush, it had more medium, somewhat buildable pigmentation. It wore well for eight hours before fading a bit.
