NKLA x Colourpop Super Shock Shadows (Puppy Love & Cat Nap) | Review

A while back, Colourpop released a Super Shock Shadow in the shade Puppy Love in collaboration with No Kill LA, an initiative by an LA pet adoption center to end the killing of animals in LA shelters. Back then, Colourpop didn’t ship internationally, so I couldn’t get my hands on this eyeshadow even though I really wanted to. All proceeds from the sale were donated to the Best Friends Animal Society and their NKLA effort to save them all. Since I’m a huge animal lover, you can imagine how much I really wanted to get my hands on this eyeshadow. If I can support an animal shelter organization and get some makeup out of it at the same time, I’m all for it of course! That’s why I was so excited when I heard the news that Colourpop was going to bring back Puppy Love, this time with a new friend called Cat Nap. I stalked the website the minute they launched this duo so that I could immediately get my hands on them and not miss this chance again.

Both of these eyeshadows come in the same compacts as their regular shadows, but they did add a paw print on the lids, which I think is really cute! That way, you can immediately tell by the packaging that these shadows were special and limited edition.

For now, there are only two shades available in this collab, Puppy Love which supports the doggies and Cat Nap, which supports the kitties. I’m a HUGE animal lover, so this collection is definitely close to my heart and I’m hoping they’ll release more shades in the future because I would definitely get them all!

As you can tell, both of the shadows are super pigmented. If you’ve tried any of the Super Shock Shadows, you know this is what you can expect.

Cat Nap Super Shock Shadow

Cat Nap is a muted medium to dark rose-gold with subtle pink and silver sparkle and a metallic finish. Rose-gold shadows are some of my favorites to apply all over my lids, especially when I’m going for a more festive look!

Cat Nap tended to look a little bit sheer when I applied it onto my lids, but I could build it up slightly. I think Cat Nap is more of a shadow topper, to add some shine and a subtle hint of color. The formula and texture was very smooth and buttery, it even felt a little bit wet whenever I touched it with my fingers.
