Review: Wet N Wild Limited Edition Holiday Palettes

If you haven't already guessed I'm a bit obsessed with Wet N Wild products. Hands down Wet N wild is one of the best drugstore cosmetic brands out there. I always browse the beauty sections at my local drugstores to see if there's anything new and was so excited to see that Wet N Wild came out with 2 new 8 pan eyeshadow palettes. They did come out with a third palette called "Drinking a Glass of Shine" but that is exactly the same as their "I heart matte" palette

The 2 other Wet N Wild palettes: "Shimmer The Night Away", which is a group of black and smokey gray colors along with bright intense purple shades & "Sparkle Til Morning" which has neutral shimmery shades of taupe, cream and golden/bronzy colors with a pop of teal really caught my eye and I had to pick them up!

The pictures below were taken with my cell phone which DO NOT do these colors any justice! When you get a chance you must stop by your local drugstore and check these palettes out, you won't regret it.

What do I really think of these palettes? For only $4.99 you get 8 different eyeshadow shades that are buttery smooth, blend effortlessly, are super pigmented and are so long lasting.... duh!!!! they are a keeper :)

Influenster Re-Launch!!!

Hey dolls,

I just wanted to share some information with you on this website called Influenster. For those of you that haven't heard of Influenster, it's a fun site that individuals can complete questionnaires based on products they send to you for review. Based on "badges" you unlock will qualify you for VoxBoxes which are packages they send you with products to use and review.

They have recently revamped their website and let me tell you I love it! I like the fact that you can interact with other influensters, before you weren't able to. You can see what badges they are unlocking, what products they are reviewing, it's fabulous. I'm still trying to manuever through the website but I'm liking it so far.

If you haven't already joined try it out! It's a fun way to interact with people, share your likes and dislikes with others and share your opinions. Here is a link: influenster.com

Take care loves

xoxo

Wet N Wild Comfort Zone Palette - Fall Jewel Tone Makeup

Hey dolls,

I have had the Wet N Wild Comfort Zone palette for quite some time now and finally decided to bust it out and bring you this tutorial!!

Wet N Wild NEVER disappoints me, their quality and pigmentation of their eyeshadows and ease of application is amazing. The eyeshadows are so buttery smooth and blend so well it really makes makeup application so easy!

I know I will probably make some high end makeup users mad but Wet N Wild products are so much better than some of the higher end cosmetic companies out there.

You will see below how pigmented the eyeshadows are in the Wet N Wild brand and for the price of about $3.99 per palette you can't really go wrong!!

I can't wait to post more tutorials using all of the other Wet N Wild eyeshadow palettes, so stay tuned for future tutorials :)
