ColourPop is launching one of the most exciting and vibrant collaborations yet with the announcement of its Pokémon collection. It highlights the beloved characters of one of the most iconic entertainment franchises and speaks to various generations. It takes fans on a nostalgic journey honoring the Pokémon game and cartoon with an array of products that are inspired by the characters and their tonal palette.
The Pokémon collection is set to launch on May 9th online at ColourPop with a following drop at ULTA Beauty on May 12th. The entire range features Pallet Town which is comprised of bright and soft tones inspired by the Kanto region followed by the pH Lip Balms which change colors based on the natural pH of wearers. The Instant Crush Cream Blush is a creamy and blendable blush with a natural matte finish and the Ultra Glossy Trio has a sheer shiny pearlized finish backed by Hyaluronic Acid. The Super Shock Shadows and Berry Lip Mask round out the capsule.
