ColourPop Epiphany & Cut Loose So Glass Lip Glosses Reviews & Swatches

Epiphany

ColourPop Epiphany So Glassy Lip Gloss ($8.00 for 0.2 oz.) is a light, milky peach base with random flecks of pink and gold sparkle. This was more like a cream-based gloss with such sparse and random sparkle that it looked more like leftover sparkle from a prior lip product than something embedded in the product.

I think that while it produced shine and glassiness, it was quite different from the rest of the line-up that it might have caused confusion. The texture was smooth, moderately tacky, and on the thicker side, though it didn’t feel heavy to me. It wore well for four hours and was moisturizing over time.

Formula Overview

$8.00/0.2 oz. - $40.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have an "ultra-glassy" finish that is "super comfy" to wear. The coverage was designed to be sheerer and packed with "prismatic pearls." They were smooth, comfortable to wear, and easy to apply as they weren't prone to settling into lip lines as much as most glosses.

The texture was lightly takcy and thicker than most of the brand's glosses, but they did deliver on the "ultra-glassy" shine. I couldn't feel the sparkles/shimmers when I pressed my lips together. The formula lasted four to five hours and was hydrating on me. They had a faint, vanilla-ish scent.

Cut Loose

ColourPop Cut Loose So Glassy Lip Gloss ($8.00 for 0.2 oz.) is a brighter, orange-copper-shimmered gloss with lots of lighter and darker copper sparkle/shimmer throughout with a more tinted-orange base, so it had a sheerer base color that added warmth to my natural lip while the coverage was more medium in the form of shimmer/sparkle.

The texture was smooth, plush, and thicker with more noticeable tackiness compared to most of the brand’s prior gloss formulas (neither a pro nor a con, more of a preference), but this ensured that there was no grittiness from the amount of sparkle in it. This shade lasted well for four and a half hours and felt hydrating.
