Wet n' Wild Color Icon Trio - Walking on Eggshells | Review and swatches

12:32 PM

Hi, guys! Today's post is a review on Wet n' Wild's Walking on Eggshells trio.


What it is: an eyeshadow trio
Where it is: drugstores and online
How much: each trio costs $3, but there are also singles and palettes with eight shades.
Anything else: Wet n' Wild is cruelty free!

I've been eyeing this little trio for a while now, more so than any of the other Color Icon eyeshadows. The trios all come with three colors, one for the lid, crease, and a highlight shade. Wet n' Wild claims that these "coordinating trio shades takes the guesswork out of creating the perfect eye look. The "how to" palettes are created to highlight, define, and accentuate specific eye colors to create unique looks." The trios are available in twelve palettes, I have mine in Walking on Eggshells.


The packaging is pretty simple, a little palette about the size of my palm that has a lock closure. The trio came with two tiiiiny little brushes, but I tossed those because they weren't great. Anyways, people have complained about the packaging not being too sturdy, but I haven't had any problems with it so far.


The colors coordinate well together. They form a very neutral and shimmery eye look when used according to the directions. All the shadows are buttery, easy to blend, and resistant to creasing. They are also extremely pigmented and with little to no fallout.


The eyelid color is a beautiful dusty, shimmery pink. Perfect for an all-over shade.


The crease color is a lovely glowing light brown. I prefer matte shades for the crease, but this gave it a nice looking effect.


The browbone color is a gorgeous shimmering champagne color. Very nice not only as an eye highlight, but as a face highlight too.


Overall, I really enjoy this product! All the shades work well together and are very good quality, despite their low and affordable price. I will be buying more of these eyeshadows.

Have you tried this product? What do you think of it?

Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo Metal Eyeshadow in 55 Inked in Pink Review

8:16 PM

Hey everyone, I've got another review today. It's on the Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo Metal Eyeshadow in 55 Inked in Pink, if you couldn't tell by the title. I hauled this a few weeks back.


This eyeshadow cost about $7 at Ulta. Maybelline products can be purchased online and in drugstores. This is the first Color Tattoo I've purchased, and it's part of the Metals collection, which may or may not be limited edition. This product contains 4 grams of product and was made in the U.S.A. Sadly, Maybelline 
does test on animals.


Inked in Pink is a pretty color in the pot. It's a light, shimmery pink which I found incredibly hard to photograph.


This product is pretty pigmented. I use my fingertips and apply it all over my lids for a wash of color. However, I find that it does apply a bit patchy, but that might be due to the fact that I use my fingers. It's easily bendable and has a nice, silky texture.


The swatch doesn't look quite as pink as the product does in the pan. It's a little more of a rose gold on the skin, which is still nice, it's just not what I expected.

I find that this product doesn't crease on me, even when I wear it for at least 12 hours straight, but that might be due to the fact that I have drier eyelids. The color fades a liiiitle bit throughout the day, but nothing so that I have to touch up.
