Quick Review: Wet n Wild Products (Color Icon Eyeshadow Palette, Color Icon Kohl Eyeliner Pencil & Photofocus Eyeshadow Primer

Here's a review of some Wet n Wild products which I got from a set called Holiday Eye Candy. Loves, I know how far away we are from the holidays such as New Year or Christmas but, holidays come back and happen every year so I just figured I'll post this review anyway. 😀 

So hustle up, buttercup and let's get this show on the road. 

Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Palette
Shade: 738 Comfort Zone
Price:

The palette contains eight pans of eyeshadows which are color coordinated. Wet n Wild even goes as far as embossing on the shadow if which one is for the browbone, etc., which comes very handy during application. For this palette, called Comfort Zone, the pans on the left side go for the bronzy hues, while the shades on the right bring in the variety, especially with the olive green color and that definer shade on the bottom right which when swatched is a duochrome of brown and blue.

Take a look at the swatches. The brown hues look something like I would wear on any normal, office day and not really on a holiday. I love the duochrome on the bottom right. It really adds the drama.

Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Palette In Action

Here are some eyeshadow looks I created using this palette, my kid being the willing model. Honestly I can't say that this is what I'd wear for a holiday makeup. More like nature fairy makeup because of the green and earth tones and all of those spackles.

My Take/Ratings

All of the shadows have shimmers and pearly satin finishes which might not sit well with some who prefer matte shadows. No transition shades here. The shadows feel buttery soft and pigmentation is also great. However, they do fall out and the staying power is not very great. The glitters/shimmers look chunky on some of the shades too. ❤️❤️❤️/💜💜💜💜💜

Wet n Wild Photofocus Eyeshadow Primer
Price:

I have the travel-sized eyeshadow primer here which contains 5 mL of product. I wasn't able to take a photo of the product itself but it is tinted beige with pasty consistency. The tint is ideal for cancelling out the darkness on the lids. *See photo below*

My Take/Ratings

I was very excited to try this one out because I have never tried and eyeshadow primer before. I ended up being disappointed however. Yes, it cancels out the darkness of the eyelids and renders a smooth canvas for application of eyeshadow. However, have you heard of the line "Don't let anyone dull your sparkle"? Because that is what exactly came to my mind when I applied an eyeshadow on top of this primer. The shimmers seem to get lost and the color looks flat (see photo above). It does however extend the wear of the eyeshadow, I'll give it to them. I even tried running some water over it and it really stayed put with minimal fading. But I wish that along with extending the staying power it also intensified the color of the eyeshadow. ❤️❤️/💜💜💜💜💜

Wet n Wild Color Icon Kohl Eyeliner Pencil
Price:

My Take/Ratings

The shade selection for these too kohl eyeliners is meant to correspond to the left and right shades of the eyeshadow palette. I wasn't too interested with these two kohl pencils that they were actually the last ones I tried out in this bunch. But they ended up being my favorites in this set. Because, look at the swatches. They are lovely and translate well when applied. Yes there was a little bit of tug at first when I used them but I tried applying them first at the back of my hand to warm them up and then they just glide on smoothly. Sometimes I even skip the whole eyeshadow thing and just smudge these liners on my upper lash line. I also love applying the bronzy one my inner eye corner it just instantly brightens up the area.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️/💜💜💜💜💜
