Colourpop Haunted Mansion is Breaking My Heart But It’s Available Now If You Need It
Colourpop is teaming up with Disney yet again and you can probably guess what’s up next! The Colourpop Haunted Mansion Makeup Collection is available now for Halloween! And I am so heartbroken over this. Like literally laying on the ground sobbing. I am huge Haunted Mansion fan! I know crazy facts about the history of the ride, I own a ton of collectibles, paintings, clothing, and accessories etc…I’m a diehard fan! When I heard Colourpop Haunted Mansion was coming I stroked out.
But woe is me…! This isn’t exactly the color collection of my Haunted Mansion dreams. Sigh. The collection consists of a Colourpop Haunted Mansion Eyeshadow Palette that contains 15 shades, four gloss shades, four Supershock Eyeshadows, and a glow in the dark body glitter gel. I’m liking the shades they went with on the single Haunted Mansion Supershock Eyeshadow Collection but the palette just isn’t really what I wanted from the collection. I wish there were more purples, teals, and aquas, The top row is just so drown out and the bottom layer isn’t terribly promising either. It’s giving chalk, it’s giving ashiness…! I’d have loved more dramatic, deeper purples and pops up aqua and teal. It feels like they put that single shade of peacock blue smack in the middle to make things exciting but if you took that out you’d just have a really standard selection of uneventful mauves. I get they wanted to go with some lighter transitional shades but literally the whole top row looks so damn light for a gothic-y Haunted Mansion color scheme. I mean, I’d even go so far as to throw greenish blue in here to represent the ghosts. I don’t really like the images either. It’s more the illustrated version (just like the Hocus Pocus Collection) of it and not the original Disney artwork we known and love.
I hate to say it but I think I’ll likely skip the Colourpop Haunted Mansion Collection. It’s giving me Hot Topic vibes.
