The Secret Life of Scorpio
ColourPop The Secret Life of Scorpio Pressed Powder Shadow Quad ($9.00 for 0.21 oz.) includes two shimmer shades (mid-tone purple, red-plum) and two matte shades (light rosy mauve, berry-red). All four shades had opaque color payoff, were blendable, and longer-wearing with some powderiness, so you’ll want to do eyes before base in case of fallout.

That's Deep
That’s Deep is a medium-dark purple with subtle, warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had intense pigmentation in a single layer, which applied evenly to bare skin as the consistency was smooth, lightly creamy, but ended up being a little too emollient to work with using a dry brush on my lid as it did not want to stick/adhere as well as anticipated. It needed more pressure to be pressed onto the skin than was comfortable on my eye (with a brush), so you’ll likely want to use this with a dampened brush or a fingertip for the best adhesion. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview
$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce
The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing” and “adheres easily to the eyes.” Most of the shades have semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation that applies well to bare skin, blends out without issue, and lasts for seven to eight hours.
The matte eyeshadows tend to be a little more powdery, though soft and finely-milled, in the pan, while the shimmers have a creamier, dense consistency. Occasionally, the more sparkly or metallic shades apply better with fingertips or a dampened brush.

Burning Passion
Burning Passion is a medium-dark, reddish-plum with warmer undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. It was slightly more loosely-pressed in the pan, so it had more chance to have fallout if I wasn’t careful to press/pack it on (or use it with a dampened brush). The eyeshadow was richly pigmented and lasted well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview
$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce
The new Pressed Powder Shadow formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with an “ultra-velvety and silky” texture that is “long-wearing." The way the Pressed Pigments differ is that they're not intended for usage on the immediate eye area.
The majority of the shades are semi-opaque to opaque in coverage, blend out fairly well, and can sometimes be a bit drier/more powdery compared to typical matte shades. They often wear eight to nine hours on me before fading, but many shades in the Pressed Pigment family leave some staining behind.
