"So Jaded" is probably the biggest, and first 30-shade eye shadow Colourpop Cosmetics has ever released, and it's a collab with one of my favorite Beauty vloggers ever—Kathleen Lights!
I was able to create some ~looks~ using Kathleen Lights X Colourpop 'So Jaded' Palette and I'm sharing it here! Nothing fancy though, just for an everyday look in the office. 😊
Colourpop regularly does collabs with various Beauty vloggers, influencers, and even with Disney! However, their collaboration with Kathleen Lights continues to prove its success with its latest and biggest team up to date!
The latest Kathleen Lights X Colourpop collaboration debuted last September 2019. But I got my hands on my "So Jaded" palette two months after that. Not complaining because at least we got free international shipping!
So when I saw Kathleen Lights X Colourpop 'So Jaded' Palette, I was instantly in love. I love me some jewel-toned eyeshadows with great color payoff but without breaking the bank. This retailed for $39, which is about P2,000 (++taxes).
'So Jaded' has 30 super pigmented shades with a combination of matte and metallic eyeshadows. There's 1 Super Shock Shadow, and 2 Pressed Glitters. The palette is inspired by crystals and gemstones, but the colors are so versatile you can create a rich neutral eye, go monochromatic, or a bold jewel-toned look.
It's true, this palette is indeed everything. That's why for me it's the best palette for 2019.

I grew up loving and knowing every gemstone there is because it's my Mom's business. She designs and creates fashion accessories made from genuine gemstones. So I was not exaggerating when I said I fell in love when I saw this palette. I love how the shades stay true to the original colors of the gemstones they're named after.

Kathleen Lights X Colourpop 'So Jaded' Palette application tips according to Colourpop's page:
- PRESSED POWDER SHADOW/PIGMENT:
Apply with your favorite shadow brushes. flat and firmer brushes will give the most color payoff. fluffier brushes are great for blending. use a small angled brush to line the eyes. - PRESSED GLITTER:
Apply with finger tips using tapping motions or with our small or medium shader brushes for a more precise application. - SUPER SHOCK SHADOW:
Use your fingertip and tap shadow directly onto the eyelid. a flat, firm synthetic brush will also work and is perfect for detailed application close to the lash line. - TO BLEND:
Use a fluffy synthetic brush with good movement, dip the tip into the shadow and apply with a "windshield wiper" movement throughout the crease of the eye for a soft and diffused look.
Look at those gorgeous jewel-toned shades! Don't you just love them? Because I do!
