Colourpop's Ultra Glossy Lip Colours are so glossy. So shimmery, metallic, glossy. Very long wearing on the lips. Extremely well priced. Beautiful packing, gorgeous pigmented shades and vibrant colours with high shine reflects of glitter! They are perfect!  

Colourpop Cosmetics says, "High shine gloss with full-coverage, metallic pearl finish in a moisturising and non-sticky, comfortable formula."



PONYLAND

Ponyland is a lilac slightly sprinkled with pink and gold glitter. This shade is super pretty! 



DREAM CASTLE

Dream Castle is a metallic fuchsia with blue, violet and gold glitter on top. This is my favourite shade. 


FLUTTER VALLEY

Flutter Valley is a golden undertone with tons of hot pink and gold glitter. This shade is the most sheer and the most versatile.
