April 2020 So Susan Color Curate Review

Limited-Edition Makeup Bag April 2020 - Retail Value $12.00
I'm loving this bag's airy, whimsical print of pink and white hot air balloons sailing across a pale blue sky.

Jelly Pong Pong Sofishticated Eyeshadow Palette in "Coral Life" - Retail Value $35.00
Ok, I think this palette might have been designed just for me. These colors are exactly the sort I wear all the time on my lids. Most are on the neutral side, but with extra shimmer to make them special. There are also a pair of mattes that are really gorgeous (though the deep green shade does stain, so beware). The real pop of color here is that shimmering emerald teal shade that is really something gorgeous. All of these shades apply smooth and beautiful, though I do prefer to apply with my fingertips then blend with a brush for maximum pigment payoff.
Top to bottom: Urchin, Sea Bed, Medusa, and Quicksand
Top to bottom: Mollusc, Starfish, Current, and Swimmer

Jelly Pong Cosmetics Cosmic Light Dust in "Pulsar", 2.3 g - Retail Value $18.00
These loose pigments are really fun because you can use them on your lids, face, lips, anywhere really. The shade this month is a celestial silvery blue which I am going to stash for a formal eye look someday.
I love the buildable powder formula and twinkle factor.

Trifle Cosmetics Lip Syrup in "Rose Fudge", 4 ml - Retail Value $12.00
Ok, absolutely obsessed with this pink lip stain! It applies like a gorgeous gloss (which honestly is fabulous already) but as the glossiness wears off the prettiest pink stain remains on my lips. This formula is glossy, moisturizing, and the perfect shade!
The best pink.

Trifle Cosmetics Cream Bar in "Cake Island", 1.8 g - Retail Value $10.50
This is another lip winner in my book. I adore the cooler hot pink shade and luckily enough, I tend to prefer bright shades like this with a matte finish. This crayon applies like butter and stays a little creamy, so you get the matte finish without any dryness. I can't wait to wear this all summer.
All day, every day!
Verdict: So Susan Color Curate has a value of $87.50 and everything inside was a winner in my book. So Susan is really taking it up a notch recently and including such fun and wearable shades in creative formulas with great packaging. What more could I ask for?
