I had purchased the
Wet n' Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Trio in On Cloud Nine a long time ago, and hadn't gotten around to playing with it yet. This weekend I decided to play around with a few looks using this trio. The shades are very smooth, pigmented, blendable, buildable and last hours without fading (using a base primer). I sort of feel that this trio is more of a Fall product because I found the shadows to be very dark and I think they just fit me better in chillier weather. Nevertheless, I created a look that I really like, and I'm probable going to be rocking this when Autumn hits.
I did a few swatch photos to show the complexity of these shadows. Wet N' Wild really does a great job on the eye shadows, but I think the crease and eyelid shadows are so unique. They're rich, deep colors with a gorgeous sheen and an unbelievably smooth texture. I wanted to really capture the effect these shadows give.
(because I didn't plan on doing a makeup look with this palette - if you are interested in a tutorial on this look, just let me know and I'll film one for you)
I had this trio as well, but unfortunately, they weren't that pigmented for me :( It came out really nice for you, though, and I really like the look you created from it!

I love the look you did!! I have this one too but I didnt' like the way it looked on me. IDK maybe it's just me but I think I have to play around with it some more. =)
ReplyDeletei love the purple in this palette, not too crazy about the greens .... love the look you did though!
ReplyDelete@Diane: Thank you so much! I will definitely go check out your blog :)
ReplyDelete@Priscilla: Thank you! :) I've heard a lot of people dislike this trio, and it is a bit hard to work with. Definitely not my favorite WnW palette
ReplyDelete@Ev: Me too, I'm not a green shadow kinda gal, but the purple is awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteI have this trio and it's probably one of my favorites, color combo-wise. That and "I've Got Good Jeans" (<= Every color in that one was a hit for me!). I never go without primer so I'm shocked at how well they show up without it. Your eyes came out darling, darling! Lol ;)
ReplyDelete@WitchHazel: Thank you so much! :) they are crazy pigmented on their own, I too was shocked.
ReplyDeletei really enjoyed browsing through your blog(:
