I was having a bad day recently and the Hubs decided to surprise me and buy me some makeup, without checking with me. Y’all he’s learning because one of the things he picked up was the ColourPop What a Hoot Palette. At first glance, it looks cute and like it would work well for me. Keep scrolling to find out if this was a success for him.
The full-size What a Hoot Palette has 3.32 grams or 0.12 oz. of product, comes in cardboard packaging, and has a nice sized mirror. The What a Hoot Palette retails for $12.00 and can be purchased at ColourPop.
ColourPop claims that their shadows are highly pigmented and long-wearing. ColourPop also claims that their shadows apply evenly and blend smoothly. The ingredients for the What a Hoot Palette are:

The first thing I want to talk about is the different formulas in the What a Hoot Palette. Honestly, this palette is a great way to try out the different ColourPop formulas as each shade is a different formula. The four formula types are glitter, matte sparkle, metallic, and matte formulas.
If you are a fan of ColourPop shadows and these shades then you may want to pick this up. I find that this size is perfect for travel and means I can leave my bigger palettes at home when I travel to work or anywhere else. This palette also shows that ColourPop is always working on their formula and it has gotten better than the last palette I reviewed. Of course, I can’t forget, if you are a fan of Animal Crossing you’ll also want to pick this up.

What a great surprise from your husband! The swatches and pigmentation of these 4 shadows is impressive, more so than the last CP palette I bought about a year ago. Nice! Enjoy it!

What a sweet gesture from your husband! This palette has such great pigmentation.

Cute palette but the glitter would drive me nuts. I could use that dark brown matte though, it would be a great liner.

That is so cute and love the colours :-Da
