Last week, I had to catch an evening flight, the departure of which would lead me straight to a dinner date with my girlies who I hadn’t seen in a year. Of course, I had to show up aptly for the occasion, so I carefully packed my in-flight essentials and a fun evening dress. As I moved towards packing for my airport-washroom makeup, I was stumped. The in-flight handbag space hardly equals the space for 2 tubes or one palette. As I looked at the gigantic heap of my makeup essentials, I prepare myself to go bare minimum with my makeup.
After narrowing my makeup essentials down to ‘extra essentials’, I was still left with at least 5-7 makeup products that I then desperately tried to fit in my handbag. After a number of failed attempts, I compromised and just keep my concealer, and a blush. Today as I pack for another flight back home, I have in my compact handbag, one solution to all my makeup needs, and you couldn’t find a happier girl in the room. All thanks to the POPxo Makeup Collection’s Hot Damn Face & Eye Kit.
What It Is?
The POPxo Makeup Collection has a mini range of face and eye makeup kits that can look after your major makeup needs. It includes a blush, a highlighter, 2 eyeshadow shades, and a translucent makeup setting powder. While this range features a daytime face and eye kit as well, Hot Damn is the night makeup themed palette and my personal favourite. You can get all of this, pressed into a mini makeup kit! How fun is that? And that too at an amazingly affordable price of just Rs. 459! Talk about worth for money.
Why Do We Love It?
What I love the most about this palette is its deliverance. It packs all the major makeup essentials – blush, highlight, eyeshadow and setting powder in one – and that too in the most compact way possible! This palette features very pigmented formulas that give a rich colour payoff. However, they are also extremely easy to blend.
Apart from the jaw-dropping price range for this so-much-in-one makeup palette, it also comes in an uber-cute, pink packaging. You can toss this mini palette in your bag, and you’ve got a one-stop solution for all your makeup retouching needs.

How To Use It?
The Hot Damn Face & Eye Kit includes four makeup steps in one. All of these steps can take place after you’re done with your foundation base.
- Makeup Base: Set your makeup base with the translucent setting powder. Pick some product from the pan and gently dab on the areas that tend to crease more – like under the eyes, smile lines, around the nose, etc. Brush off any access product.
- Eyes: Use the darker matte shade from the palette and blend it in your outer and middle crease. Then pick the lighter shimmer shade and apply it on your inner lid, while gently blending it in the centre.
- Cheeks: Apply the blush on your cheekbones – starting from the centre of your cheeks till the upper corner of your ear. Blend well for a seamless finish.
- Highlight: Pick the highlight pigment with a small highlighting brush. Apply it on the high points of your face – like the cheekbones, bridge of your nose, brow bones, and the cupid’s bow.
Bonus Tips:
- Use the dark matte eyeshadow shade for light contouring as well.
- Repurpose the blush and highlight pigments to create versatile and fun eye makeup looks!
