Astrology-themed cosmetics have been highly popularized this year due to an increased interest in the zodiac, and Colourpop is capitalizing on this with a series of Zodiac-inspired makeup releases. Last year, the cosmetic brand released an eye shadow palette that featured a unique color for each of the signs, and now, those colors can be purchased in individual tubs.
Now, makeup wearers can mix-and-match their favorite colors, or, simply sport the hue that's been designated to their sign. The 12 shades range from purples to oranges, with each single shade featuring a unique name that's related to the zodiac. These single shadow compacts are perfect for collectors, or those looking for a more personalized makeup-related birthday gift for a friend.
