Wet n Wild Coloricon Eyeshadow Collection in Nude Awakening ($4.99 for 0.3 oz) is a new limited edition palette out for Spring 2013. It comes in special white packaging with flower graphics on the lid and contains eight eyeshadows in nude and neutral shades. I grabbed my palette at my local Hollywood CVS. Keep your eyes peeled if you live in the SoCal area, ’cause they’re here! Everything is swatched over Kiss My Sass Cosmetics Matte... Read More

Wet n Wild LE Where’s the Party? Collection Review and Swatches (Sparkle Till Morning and Shimmer The Night Away)

party1

Sorry for the long absence, guys! I’ve been dealing with an increased workload and some personal issues so blogging has been on the backburner. That hasn’t stopped me from buying new beauty products, though, so I have a ton of new stuff in the hopper! Now it’s just a matter of writing the reviews. ;) Anyway, I recently grabbed the two new palettes from the limited edition Where’s the Party? collection by Wet n Wild. With the... Read More

NYC Sweet and Devilish Collection — includes eye pencils,... Read More

Wet n Wild Coloricon Greed Palette Swatches

greed3

I found these photos while clearing out my camera SD card, so I’ll just throw ‘em up quickly. :) Greed is one of four palettes in Wet n Wild’s six-pan line named after deadly sins. Each palette contains 3 matte shades and 3 shimmers.  Get them while you can, because WnW will stop producing them in less than a year. It’s a shame they’re doing this, because generally the quality of the six-pans is pretty good, and I like how they... Read More

Wet n Wild Coloricon Vanity Palette Swatches

VANITY

Just a short and sweet post. I’m not bothering taking pictures of the actual palette since it’s so common and easy to find. Vanity is one of four palettes in Wet n Wild’s six-pan line named after deadly sins. Each palette contains 3 matte shades and 3 shimmers.  Get them while you can, because WnW will stop producing them in less than a year. It’s a shame they’re doing this, because generally the quality of the six-pans... Read More

Wet n Wild Holiday Collection Night Elf Palette Review and Swatches

nightelf6

I jumped on the Wet n Wild bandwagon late, so I missed out on the wildly-popular holiday releases of last year.  Thankfully, I was able to snag the Night Elf palette at Swatch Storm‘s blog sale for only $3! It’s hard to beat that, especially with some less-than-scrupulous people selling it for a markup on eBay. After being somewhat underwhelmed by the performance of the red and black shadows in the Enter A New Realm palette from the... Read More

Random Roundup Post

The above is what happens when, five minutes out of a store, you drop your eyeshadow and it cracks.  Then, when you put it back into your bag, it crumbles a bit, and the pan comes loose.  Then, when you look at home, you discover it’s been reduced to nothing more than a pile of soft, pigmented, metallic taupe-y rubble. Luckily, I had some pressing medium on hand (big post on that later!) and I was able to salvage the mess.  Even if the aftermath... Read More

newrealm closeup

There are six trios in the Dream Weavers collection: Bright Idea, We’re Blasting Off, Dancing In The Clouds, Fly Me To The Moon (great Sinatra song, btw), Earth Looks Small From Down Here, and Enter A New Realm.  They are touted as having 30% more pigment and pearl than existing Coloricon palettes and cost the same at $2.99 apiece. All of the Dream Weavers palettes are constructed the exact same way as the permanent trios, with three pans... Read More

Random Roundup Post

My July 4 sale orders are starting to trickle in, so look forwards to some new reviews!  I’m going to try for about 1 review every week, possibly more if a particular review is time-sensitive for whatever reason. I’m a sucker for any bracelet inspired by metalhead accessories, so I picked these up while I was at Forever 21 the other day, even though I totally shouldn’t be going around spending money on jewelry.  Shiny!
