Wet n Wild Idol Eyes Cream Shadow Pencil



The cheapest of the cheapest Wet n Wild has in stores the Idol Eyes Cream Shadow Pencil. I wanted to try out cream shadows before I purchased NYX's cream shadow chubby pencils. This product was purchased at Walgreens of course for $1.69 in the shade 130 Pixie. You can purchase this at certain Ultas, Walmart, Walgreens, and Rite Aids. The shade is a sheer shimmery gold.
My impression of this product is very silky and easy to glide without dragging. Not a lot of product but very inexpensive and pigmented. This however did crease on my lids and I recommend a eyeshadow primer but perfect for a lid base. I do use this as a highlighter at my tear ducts, or even under my brow bone.

Wet n Wild Coloricon Eyeshadow

Why hello there!
This product is just too good to be true! It is a big rave to other beauty fans! Today I will be reviewing the Wet n Wild's Coloricon Eyeshadows in the 8 color pan.The two that I purchased at Walgreens were $4.99 each and I got the 738 Petal Pusher and 738 Comfort Zone. You can find these mostly at all drugstores I believe except Target, I didn't find any there.
These colors are so pigmented for a drugstore brand but yet very glittery so if you into matte colors this might not be for you. Try the Wet n Wild Trios $2.99, they are less glittery or even the one shaded eyeshadows for $1.99. Majority of them are pretty glittery but there are some neutral shadows.
 

As you can tell from the pictures above they are pretty glittery and have 4 shades to choose for an eye color. They all have labels on them that say where to place each color, but of course you can mix and match as well. The darker colors are very pigmented and you would only need to tap a very small amount on your eyes to get the color payoff. With the lighter colors, you might have to go over it a couple times until you are satisfied but for me the Petal Pusher eyelid shades, were very sheen.
Here are the swatches on my hand accordingly to the order from above with Petal Pusher on the left and Comfort Zone to the right.
Here on top are the four shades on the right side of Comfort Zone
Here on top are the four shades on the left, the more neutral brown shades of Comfort Zone
On top are the left side lighter purple shades of Petal Pusher
& lastly here are the right shade colors of Petal Pusher.

The Wet n Wild eyeshadows are a great makeup starter kit and fairly good payoff for drugstores. They do not crease, and the color lasts for a long time, about 10 hours! Check them out and let me know how you like them!

Wet N' Wild's Fergie Collection Lipstick

Hello once again!
Today I will be reviewing the Wet N' Wild's new Fergie Collection, specifically the lipstick line. I recently bought two of the shades, in A037 Old School Glam on the left and the A038 Saraghina on the right. Yes, I bought the bold color. I wanted something different. I purchased these two at the nearest Walgreens for $3.49 each. 
The Fergie line has 10 different shades but from the two I've purchased, Old School Glam on the left is more of a pink red, less fire engine red if you don't want true brick red. Saraghina on the right is red red!
Here is the swatches of the two in the same order. So with these products they are non-drying, creamy formula but they do transfer very easily and when you do make a mistake you will notice it. It smudges easily and stains. With the formula being creamy it does not last very long, up to about 4 hours then it fades but stains your lips. It is although very pigmented so I will only need about one layer to accomplish the true color.
With the packaging you have to be careful because the tube that covers the actual product are very narrow so when you open and close the cap you might nick the products and it will smudge everywhere. Here are what my natural bare lips look like. Not a very good example since they do look dry and not exfoilated but oh well.
This collection line are my actual first lipsticks that I purchased and choosing Wet n' Wild for a drugstore product in my mind was such a great choice! I'm loving them! I believe my lips are small and are not such a great example but hopefully you can base the product off from my swatches and pictures of the shades on me.

Here is Old School Glam on my lips

& here is the Saraghina

Overall if you are looking for a cheap but very good lipstick go for the Wet n' Wild's Fergie Centerstage lipsticks! Wet n' Wild always has very good payoff yet very affordable so I say go for it! It is glossy, non-drying, stains your lips so I highly recommend them! You can find these at most drugstores such as Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, etc.
