It’s Hello Kitty’s Birthday and We’re Wearing Her Brand New ColourPop x Hello Kitty Collection

Today is a big day for fans of Sanrio and makeup alike!

Not only is it our beloved feline Hello Kitty's birthday, but this date also marks the official launch of the ColourPop x Hello Kitty collection.

We have to say that this gives us a little post-Halloween excitement. As you know, we love makeup (ColourPop in particular) over here, and even though we're (sadly) putting away our unihorns and Pikachu get-ups, the fun we can apply to our faces is never-ending.

We were among the very first to get our hands on the vibrant-colored collection, and we spent the morning getting ready with a slew of these luscious lip glosses and Lippe Stix, along with Super Shock cheek and shadow shades (wait 'til you hear some of the adorable item names below).

For a casual daytime look, we went with Sticker Sheet, Friendship File and Juicy Apple for the eyes, Yummy Cookies for the pearlized cheek powder, Fun With Friends for the pearlized cheek blush and Super Cute for the sheer glossy lip.

For a more dramatic evening look, we went with Small Gift, School Bus and Rainbow for the eyes, School Is Fun for the pearlized cheek powder, Coin Purse for the matte blush and Konichiwa for the creme lip color.

Superfans (us included, obvi!) of Queen Kitty had a chance to check out the line days before its launch, at an intimate private event at Pour Vous in Hollywood. Product-filled gift bags, Hello Kitty-colored macarons and Hello Kitty ears were each among takeaways for the coveted attendees.

We are incredibly happy to be celebrating HK's birthday in style! Wishing her one of pure purrfection! ????????????

 

We were not only among the first to try out Hello Kitty's ColourPop collaboration, but we we also checked out the Hello Kitty Cafe before most people had the chance. Read about our experience HERE!
