As soon as I heard Zoella was collaborating with Colour Pop and creating a super sweet brunch date themed makeup collection I was shook and had to place a cheeky little order ASAP! It would of been quite easy for me to buy the entire collection to be honest because I do love the look of everything Zoe and Colour Pop have created however, I'm completely new to Colour Pop and had no idea about the quality of their products, so I played it safe and bought four items that I was most excited in trying first!
Before I get into the products I do want to chat a little bit about the amazing Colour Pop customer service because I did have a few issues with my order, firstly when my order was dispatched my tracking didn't work so I got in touch with Colour Pop via twitter and they immediately looked into it for me and emailed me with the correct tracking information, they also DM'd me when I had tweeted another blogger about that fact my order was still awaiting delivery and they once again checked to make sure everything was on track for my order to be delivered! Once my order arrived I was actually missing an item - the Supernova Shadow in the shade OG - so I had to get in contact with Colour Pop again and they more or less immediately apologised and refunded me, they where so efficient throughout!
Anyway on to the bit's that I bought....Firstly can we all just appreciate the packaging of this collection, everything from the cardboard outer packaging to the packaging of the products their selves is so adorable and right up my street, I'm always sucked into cute packaging whether the product is good or not I must admit. The products I picked up where the Brunch Date Eyeshadow Palette - which was the main thing I wanted - the What Happens at Brunch Lip Bundle and the Creme Gel Liner in XOXO.
I have seen online that some people think the Brunch Date Eyeshadow Palette ($18.00/£13.73) is a bit boring, yes it is filled with mostly bronze's, brown's and warm beige tones with a splash of blue but lets face it, it's the most amazing shade range for everyday wear and something I would certainly reach for - for my daily looks! The palette contains 12 shadows in total, theres 5 mattes and 7 metallic, after giving a few shades a whirl the quality seems amazing, the mattes are so, so pigmented you literally just need the tiniest amount of your brush and your good to go, most of the matellic shades are so buttery, very pigmented and I've found best applied with my finger , the only thing negative I could say is that some of the metallic shades contain glitter and I do get quite a bit of glitter fallout but apart from that so far so good!
The What Happens at Brunch Lip Bundle ($11.50/£8.01) is so adorable and I'm so happy I bought it because I've been wearing it everyday since it arrived, in the set you get a Lippie Pencil in Oh Snap and a matching Ultra Matte Lip in @ME, both of which are a gorgeous mauve pink colour which is so me! The lip pencil glides on so smoothly with a matte finish and the liquid lipstick again goes on smoothly from the doe-foot applicator, it does dry down quite quickly but I actually find it quite comfortable to wear and doesn't make my lips feel mega dry!
Finally I bought the Creme Gel Liner in XOXO ($5.00/£3.81), I bought this because I wear black eyeliner in my waterline most days and this one actually worked out cheaper than the one I buy in Superdrug or Boots so that a bonus! I've actually been really impressed with the formula of this eyeliner, it super rich and jet black with tiny gold flecks within it which makes a nice change and it applies so smoothly like the lip liner and is super long lasting!
Overall everything I've tried to far gets a HUGE thumbs up from me and I defiantly want to place another Colour Pop order when they have free shipping again he he! Did you buy anything in the Zoella collection beaut's? What do you think of it? I'd love to know!
When that free shipping offer is back I'm planning on a little order xx

Uhm how on earth did I miss out on that free shipping offer? I'm guessing you still have to pay custom fees? I'm so intrigued on the palette, I don't think I'd ever use that blue shade but the others are GORGEOUS! Colourpop is seriously great and what I love about it is that even through collabs and stuff you won't ever lose the quality xx

The customs was added at the checkout, they added 20% onto my order so that I didnt get a massive charge which I thought was good! I agree the blue shade is the only shade I wont use much but i'm loving every other shade! xx
