Review: Wet n Wild Spring 2014 Color Icon Eyeshadow Collection


Color Icon Palette in Poster Child (737A)

Packaging: Comes in the standard Wet n Wild Color Icon Palette. Total of 8 eye shadows ranging from pinks, blues, a yellow, an emerald green and a dark grayish black. This is the only new Color Icon Palette for their Spring 2014 Collection.

Formulation: These shadows like the other color icon palettes shadows have a very similar soft texture to them. They apply very smoothly without any creasing. The only issue I have with this palette is that the colors aren't as vibrant compared to the other Wet n Wild Color Icon palettes. However they still give off enough pigmentation to play around in. Definitely a fun palette to look into for the upcoming spring and summer months! 


Overall: 4.5/5

This is a permanent edition to the Wet n Wild line so don't fret if you cannot find it yet. It just started to be released into stores at the moment it may take a bit of time depending where you are for these to come to you.

All Color Icon Palettes from Wet n Wild are $4.99 no matter where you purchase them. Walgreens is the only drugstore I have seen carrying these products as of now.

Top Fave Fall Blushes

Title pretty much explains it all here are my top blush picks for fall
DISCLAIMER: ALL PRODUCTS MENTIONED ARE MY OWN AND WERE NOT GIVEN TO ME BY THE COMPANY THEMSELVES. I AM ALSO NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY OF THESE COMPANIES. ALL OPINIONS AND PHOTOS ARE STRICTLY MY OWN. 

1.) Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in the color Exposed ($26)

A neutral mauve color that looks brown in the packaging but when applied on the face it gives it a natural looking glow. It also lasts 12 hours on the skin as claimed. Great for everyday where especially during the fall. 


2.) Wet n Wild Color Icon Blusher in the color Pearlescent Pink ($2.99)
A coral blush with gold shimmer. This is a dupe for NARS Orgasm. The shimmer gives a nice glow to face without looking like a disco ball. It is super easy to blend and very pigmented so when applying use a light hand. 


3.) Benefit Box Powder Blush in Rockateur ($28)
Benefit's newest box powder blush. A pretty rose gold color with a bit of shimmer. "A glow within" blush with a light floral scent. 


4.) Revlon Cream Blush in the color Berry Flirtatious ($9.99)
Berry color cream blush. It is super easy to blend and stays on for a long time. Apply to the apples of your cheeks for that natural flush. Great color for the fall. 


5.) Milani Baked Blush in the color Red Vino ($8.29)

Milani Baked Blushes are the drug store dupes to MAC Mineralize Baked blushes. Highly pigmented with lots of shimmer. So careful when applying otherwise you will end up looking like a disco ball. This particular color is a deep red wine. Apply to the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards towards the hairline. Try to keep all other makeup to a minimal when wearing this blush as the color stands out on its own pretty well.
