ColourPop Hello Kitty Collection

Purchased By Me
Now you just know I had to get in on the ColourPop Hello Kitty Collection! My order surprisingly shipped within 3 days and was in my hands within the week! I say surprisingly because I’ve had to wait well over 2 weeks for less popular collection releases. I’m not complaining though!
I think ColourPop did a wonderful job on this collection. The packaging is cute as heck! It’s simple, but nicely done. I wasn’t really sold on the eyeshadow shades, but everything else is as colorful and sparkly as I’d expect it to be. I only picked up a few items. I totally would have purchased the kit if the eyeshadows were more exciting to me. I was a little bummed that the highlighter and blush included in the kit wasn’t sold separately. It seems I wasn’t alone in that. Anyway, here’s what I picked up.
ColourPop Hello Kitty Ultra Metallic Lip in Surprise $6.00
Surprise is described as a metallic finish dynamic cool toned ruby red topped with copper and hot pink glitter. This is the lipstick I was most excited to try. It looks all kinds of sparkly and pretty. I think it’s the perfect holiday lip shade.
It’s very creamy. It’s a little on the thick side, but it still applies nicely and evenly. It’s a little gritty because of all the glitter, but it doesn’t affect application. It made for a nice comfortable wear, but it did feel a little drying toward the end of the day. It wasn’t transfer-proof, but it did hold up well to food and drink with only a little fading on the inner part of my mouth. It also leaves behind a bit of a stain. Aside from the drying and fading, it’s a really beautiful lipstick. This is easily my favorite of them all!
ColourPop Hello Kitty Ultra Satin Lip in Tiny Chum $6.00
Tiny Chum is described as a satin finish baby nude pink. The texture on this one is a little thinner. It applied just as nicely as Surprise. It does settle a bit into lines so you’ll want to be sure to prep your lips well before applying this one. It felt a little tacky, but it wasn’t bothersome. It lasted around 7 hours and did require a bit of a touch-up after food and drink.
ColourPop Hello Kitty Lippie Stix in Konichiwa $5.00
Konichiwa is described as a creme finish mid-tone cool blue pink. This lipstick is so creamy and glides onto your lips with ease. It made for one of the most comfortable wears I’ve experienced from ColourPop. It didn’t last nearly as long as the liquid lipsticks, but touching up was easy. I don’t have many Lippie Stix and I’m just now wondering why. I will have to change that! Soon!
ColourPop Hello Kitty Blush in Coin Purse $8.00
Coin Purse is described as a matte finish bright cool toned rosy pink. It’s creamy and applies and blends beautifully. I usually use my fingers to apply their blushes. I just dab and blend in. It’s not as intimidating as it appears in the pan. But I’d still use a light hand.
ColourPop Hello Kitty Highlighter in School Is Fun $8.00
School Is Fun is described as a pearlized finish soft iridescent duo chrome gold. It’s creamy and soft like the other highlighters I’ve tried. I use a combination of my fingers and a brush to apply their highlighters. The gold pairs beautifully with the pink. I’ll have to photograph my look the next time I wear them together. This post is already a little too heavy on the photos.
I also ordered another Lippie Stix in the shade Date Mate, but I decided to include it in my upcoming giveaway. So be on the lookout for that!

Such a freaking cute collection! I kept seeing ColourPop post about it, but I bought so many things from the Sephora sale that I was like Emily you need to chill haha. Hello Kitty is so timeless. I miss those days! The colour range is so perfect too. :)

I know what you mean! This time of year it’s so difficult keeping up with all of the collections and sales. Really trying to pace myself.
The lipsticks looks great on you. Colourpop really does have some amazing color selection.

Thank you so much! I love their color selections! :)
This collection didn’t grab me even though I am a Hello Kitty fan. Now seeing your swatches, I do really love that bright pink blush in School Is Fun. The metallic lipstick in Surprise is really pretty too but I could never pull that off!

I think it would have been cool if they added a bit more to it, but overall I really do think it was a fun collection. But probably not for everyone lol. :)
