I got my hands on Fem Rosa!!!!! 

Fem Rosa is a Colourpop collaboration with Karrueche. They released an eyeshadow palette, a face palette, and three lippies (+1 exclusive lippie). I got the eyeshadow palette and lip bundle. 

The pressed powder shadow palette is called "She" and its full of "soft mauve tones and buttery metallic finishes" and it only costs $16!!!

I'm so glad that I got my hands on it because it sold out in 30 minutes!!! 

From top to bottom (w/ flash):

Ladylike (metallic soft ivory) Babe (satin light peachy pink) Gal (metallic red with copper duochrome) Missy (matte deep burgundy) Damsel (matte smokey violet) 

(w/ flash)

(w/ sunlight)

I blurred out my imperfections so we could only focus on the eyeshadows.

I used 'Duchess' (matte dusty coral) as my first crease color and then I went in with 'Dear' (matte warm rose) as a lower transition color and all over lid shade. I used Gal (metallic red with copper duochrome) as a sparkle for the lid and 'Chick' (metallic subtle gold) as an inner corner highlight. I am also wearing a Sephora Colorful Shadow and Liner in the shade Lilac Shimmer on my waterline.

My camera does not make the colors justice. I absolutely love how the matte colors blended. I had to layer the metallic colors a bit though because they wouldn't easily pack onto my eyeshadow brush. But I would still recommend the palette because for $16, it's worth it. 

I got the Fem Rosa lip bundle for only $15 and I also got an extra lippie for free because I spent more than $20 on the Fem Rosa collaboration. 

From top to bottom (w/ flash):

Mrs (Ultra Satin Lip; deepened coral)  Darling (Ultra Satin Lip; deep plum) Contessa (Ultra Glossy Lip; warm gold) Polished (Ultra Glossy Lip)

I love their satin finishes because it's not sticky like a gloss but not drying like a matte. It's a perfect in between. So I'm really going to enjoy 'Mrs' and 'Darling'. I tried on 'Contessa' and it didn't last very long since it is a gloss but it still looked good, I didn't take a picture to prove it though. I wore 'Mrs' and at first I was scared that it was going to look weird on me since it's very pink but it doesn't, it looks good with my skin tone. 

'Polished' is not part of the lip bundle, I received it for free because I spent more than $20 on the collection. Therefore, the website doesn't have a description for it, but I would describe it as a golden brown.

I'm wearing the eye look I talked about above and a lippie in 'Mrs'. 

To wrap up this review, I loved this Karrueche collab. The packaging is so cute. It's all roses and I think roses are beautiful. I also loved the female theme with the names of every shade. I just loved the whole aesthetic of the collab. I would recommend Fem Rosa to anybody who loves makeup. 'She' is out of stock right now but when it comes back, I advise you to be quick and get it!!!!!

Colourpop never disappoints. I'm happy.
