Frosted sugar
ColourPop Sugar Frosted 4-Pan baking pallet ($ 12.00 for 0.3 ounces) includes an off-white highlighter, a shimmery powder red, and two matte blushes: pale white gold, glittery gold peach, matte peach, and matte warm brown. They were pretty fair in terms of pigmentation; The blush was more buildable and hard to overdo, although it does pay off to appear on the skin.
I found the texture of the blush to be very smooth and finely ground, which didn’t seem to stick as well to my arm (which is quite dry) but worked well on my face (ultimately, where I test cheek products!). .

jellyroll
jellyroll is a pale white gold with subtle, warm undertones and a touch of pink pearl. It had a more opaque cover applied with a fingertip and a more transparent one, a more buildable cover applied with a brush that was marketed. The texture felt smooth, spongy, and pliable, but blendable and worked well on bare skin and on top of the foundation. It stayed on well for 10 hours before fading a little.

Hey pudding
Hey pudding is a very light peach with moderate, warm undertones and a fine gold pearl that is woven throughout. It had a moderately powdery texture that was otherwise finely ground and silky to the touch, and it produced a semi-transparent cover that could be built up to medium-sized at best. On my skin tone (light plus) it hardly showed during the build-up. It took a decent seven and a half hours before it faded a little.

Formula overview
$ 8.00 / 0.13 oz. – – $ 61.54 per ounce
The formula is said to go on “smoothly” and have a “natural and healthy blush” that has “long wear” and “can be layered to the desired intensity”. It is a light to moderately powdery powder red with a semi-transparent to semi-opaque, buildable color display. The consistency feels drier and thinner, and while it feels silky, I’ve found that the type of powder blush can be difficult to evenly distribute on the skin, depending on your skin type or base preferences. The drier the skin / base, the better the formula would blend, but natural oils or slip caused an uneven blush and were difficult to fade out. The wear and tear averaged between seven and eight hours for me.

small thing
small thing is a light peach with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. The consistency felt quite powdery, although it was certainly finely ground, and was better applied to my cheeks, where it faded out slightly and didn’t appear dry, than it was on my arm (which is drier). The product had a semi-transparent cover that could be built up to medium size at best. It carried well for seven hours before it visibly faded.

Cookie Crumble
Cookie Crumble is a light to medium-sized orange brown with strong, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had medium buildable pigmentation that was marketed for the brand’s powder blush formula. It was very smooth and finely ground, but there was a powderiness that didn’t work as well with very dry skin – like my arm – but worked wonderfully on my cheeks (where I test and are more normal to dry off). The color showed signs of fading after eight hours of wear.
