For my first look with the ColourPop Rock Candy Palette, I went with a cool toned smokey eye. It’s not a super heavy eye makeup look but it is noticeable. All of the matte shades applied with good color payoff and blended easily. The inner corner highlight is the most subtle/sheer of all the shimmers but it still shows up and works well. The lid shade I used had a lot of sparkle fallout during application and continued to have fallout throughout the day. About 4 hours into wear, the unprimed eye started to fade in the crease (but was not creased yet) and the primed eye still looked fine. After 9 hours, the unprimed eye was very noticeably creased and the primed eye was just starting to fade in the crease. By 11 hours, the primed eye finally gave up. This was on a day when I wasn’t doing a whole lot, mostly sitting at a desk all day.
