Let’s finish up the Disney craze I seem to be on by reviewing the ColourPop Disney Princess Palette. I originally wasn’t going to get anything from the Princess side of the collection because neither the lipsticks nor the palette spoke to me. Let’s see if I should have stuck to that or if I made the right choice in picking this one up as well.

The claims for the ColourPop Disney Princess Palette is similar to that of the Misunderstood Palette. The shadows are supposed to be highly pigmented, silky, easily blendable, and long lasting. The ingredients for the Disney Princess Palette are:
ColourPop Disney Princess Palette Review
I’m going to be 100% honest, the real reason I didn’t want to pick up anything from the Disney Princess part of the collection is because I’m not a huge fan of the Disney Princess art that they chose. I don’t mind revisions, there have been several fan renditions that I have loved (you should see the number of Disney x Insert Other Pop Culture Reference Here shirts that I have from). I’m just not a fan of this set. This means that starting with the packaging, I’m already not a huge fan. I do, however, like the signatures on the inside of the lid. Let’s move onto the swatches and formula.
The first swatch is Juju which is a matte warm rosy pink, the next swatch is Grumpy which is a matte dusty salmon, the third swatch is Triton which is a sand with a golden sheen, and the last swatch is Abu which is a matte intense warm brown. To start off with, your eyes are not deceiving you, there is in fact one swatch missing. There should have been a swatch at the top called Chip which is a matte soft beige nude. However, I could NOT get that shadow to actually distribute pigment onto my arm or eyelid so I just left it off. In all honesty, the Disney Princess Palette is REALLY not starting off on a good foot. I found this row to be super lack luster both swatched and applied to the eyes.
The first swatch is Prince Charming which is an ivory pearl with a green duochrome, the next swatch is Ray which is a metallic champagne, the swatch after that is Fairy Godmother which is a metallic bright coral, the fourth swatch is One Kiss? which is a metallic bright coppery gold, and the last swatch is Thingamabob which is a metallic silver. Okay NOW we are talking! This row alone is worth the price of admission. These are all shades that would make good pops on the eyelid and boy do they. I wish that I could have captured just how stunning Prince Charming, Ray, and Fairy Godmother were in real life. Trust me, this photo doesn’t do them justice.
The first swatch is Enchanted Rose which is a metallic rose, the next swatch is Poison Apple which is metallic pinky violet, the swatch after that is Magic Carpet which is a blackened plum, the fourth swatch is Beast which is a deep warm brown topped with gold glitter, and the final swatch is Midnight Curfew which is a black sprinkled with silver glitter. This row I’m kind of on the fence about. I’m a big fan of Enchanted Rose and Poison Apple, they are both stunning on the eyes. I like Magic Carpet but don’t know if I would wear something that deep as a pop on the eye. Beast and Midnight Curfew is where I get a bit confused. Personally I like black as a shade to smoke out a look and poo brown as a shade to deepen up the crease. I have no earthly idea why I would want glitter going through shadows for those two purposes. That being said, the glitter going through Midnight Curfew, when the light catches it is absolutely STUNNING.
Final Thoughts on ColourPop Disney Princess Palette
In all honesty I don’t have a clear recommendation on what to do with this palette. As we’ve previously established, I’m a HUGE Disney fan. However, I wish that I could go back and tell past Cassie to not purchase this palette. As much as I love that middle row, I just don’t feel like it it’s enough to justify dropping $22 on this. Maybe if you like more than that row AND you like the art for this it would be a good pick for you.

This is such a beautiful palette! Thanks for the swatches.
You’re very welcome.
Since you are on a limited budget it’s a shame when your beauty buys don’t match your expectations. I’m not terribly impressed with these shades and on the swatches they look patchy. I’m sure you’ll be able to use some but not all of the colors at least.
The sad thing is that they also applied to the eyes patchy and some of the shimmers didn’t pop even when foiled with Mac Fix+.
Wow I was not prepared to like this palette but I do!
You’re right. The shades aren’t really unique. I bought some CP palettes before that were way better
I agree with you 100%. I’ll use this palette but in all honesty this one is only staying around because of the packaging.
I reaaaaaally wish they put more color into these. I’m a little neutraled out but I guess it makes sense that it matches the actual makeup that the princesses wear!
I agree. It needed a bit more color which they could have gotten away with by basing it on the princess itself. A purple or blue for Jasmine, a yellow or gold for Belle, a pale green for Tiana, etc.
Well, if you are only into using the middle row, it definitely doesn’t make it the most useful palette for you. It is pretty, though!
Those were my thoughts exactly, although I don’t know many people who buy palettes for just one row especially on a medium size palette like this.
Pretty palette! I wish there was one with more mattes though!
