Hello! I did a review the the ColourPop Lippie Stix last week and today I have a review for the Where The Light Is shadow set. This was designed by youtuber Kathleen Lights and I love watching her videos and the shadow set she created is absolutely gorgoues.
When I was browsing colourpops shadow section, I got a little overwhelmed on which shadows to choose. And since I have too many damn eyeshadows already, I didn't really need or want any particular shades so I decided to get a shadow set instead so didn't have to sit and pick out colors. I debated on getting the Metamorphosis set from Coffee break with Dani, which is also gorgoues but I choose the KathleenLights one because I just wear gold/bronze shades more.
This set comes with 4 individual shadows, and is $20. Their shadows are $5 each which is pretty great!
From left to right- Glow, Cornelious, KathleenLights, and Blaze. This shadows are super beautiful and ridiculously pigmented. Glow is a creamy vanilla shade that's a matte finish. Cornelious is the perfect matte transition shade. KathleenLights is the most gorgoues copper gold shade I've ever seen, and it's a pearlized finish. And Blaze is a metallic finish that's described on the website as a 'coco bronze sprinkled with multidimensional glitter'.

My Thoughts-
-The formula of these shadows is very very different than any that I've used. If you've used colourpops products then you know what I'm talking about. For those of you who haven't tried them, they are not quite a cream, but not quite a powder. This feel very silky or siliconey when you touch them, also kind of squishy and mousse like, but they dry and apply like a powder. I really hope that makes since.
-They are best applied with your fingers. I'm not a huge fan of applying my makeup with my fingers but I does make a difference. I will apply them with a brush first, and the dab areas that need more pigmenation with my fingers.
-With that being said, the first time I used these I had a bit of difficultly, and I wasn't too impressed. But since I loved how pretty they were, I gave it another go and the second time was a lot better since I knew how to apply them then. I'm now in love!
- I really do love these, and the price for them is great. The pigmentation is there, they don't fade, and last all day.
-The colors are gorgoues, gold and bronze colors are my all time favorite!
-So if you can get past the weird formula and figure out a good way to apply them that works for you, then I totally recommend these!
Since I already have these shadow I don't think I will try any more from ColourPop, unless another youtuber I love comes out with a set. I just have too many shadows already LOL! I probably won't try their blushes or Bronzers because I don't think I'd like this formula for cheek prodcuts, but maybe I'll try their highlighters!
