Wet 'n' Wild Pride Palette!




Hey guys! So here is my first actual beauty post for this blog, and it is on the new Wet 'n' Wild Lust palettes. So these palettes retail for $4.99. First, Wet 'n' Wild is a budget makeup company (Like ELF, or NYC) that is probably my favorite as far as budget company's go, next to elf. They have amazing quality, especially for the price! This is surely a company that should not be skipped over for being poor quality! I included swatches so you guys could see the amazing pigmentation. I barely had to TOUCH the shadow to get it! They are some the of the riches eyeshadows I have worked with, and trust me I have swatches and used A LOT of shadows!

Pretty much these palettes follow one color "spectrum" then have matte versions of the shadows on the left side, then shimmer versions of the color on the right side. Because of the shimmer and matte the color payoff is different with each shadow, and even though it looks like there are two of the same shade of green in the palette, just matte and shimmer, they are actually a little different. The shimmery one is more of a dark mermaid green, while the matte version is a turquoise like green.

I own two of these palettes. One in Pride (This one) and one in Lust, which I did a video tutorial on here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqpbm0iyzRg

I love both of these palettes dearly, along with Wet 'n' Wild's new color i-con collection as a whole. Now the reason I did not do a tutorial on this look is plainly because many people on YouTube did a similiar look, since really this look is the one that makes sense the most. You apply the green all over the lid, a blue in the crease, and white as a highlight. Pretty simple, and beautiful!

Overall Rating: 4 Star Palette
Easy Blendibility
Excellent color pay off
Good colors (Although they are pretty generic just aqau green, midnight blue and white)
Great Packaging
Little goes a LONG way
Will last long
Has good shelf life
Great for everyday use, or for a more dramatic look.

XOXO Candie
