I love eye makeup.My absolute,all time favorite is the smokey eyes.Especially with glitter ^_^ So,I bought this palette to achieve the glittery look.
MY STORY BEHIND THIS PALETTE:
Recently,I have developed a mad love for Sugar pill Eye shadow Chrome lust Stella.The glittery black eye makeup you see on pinterest is Stella,nine out of ten times.

It is such a great color..But,the bad part is that it's pricey,like 13$ for a single shade.
So,I did what I normally do...search for a dupe.(The closest match is Zeitgeist by Illamasqua). Anyways,the purpose of sharing all this is that while searching for a rich black eye shadow,I landed on this eye shadow trio by Wet n wild.
Now,as we all know and agree,wet n wild has amazing cosmetic range which is very affordable too.This eye shadow trio has got good reviews from many bloggers.Its price is 6$.Normally, Facebook pages are selling it for 800-900 but at just4girls it was only 600 PKR (equivalent to its price in dollars).So,I immediately ordered it.It is not a dupe of Stella at all,but still I liked it and couldn't resist.You can find it here.
WET n WILD COLOR ICON EYE SHADOW TRIO IN SPOILED BRAT
SWATCHES:
Above are with primer,below are without primer.
I love the packaging.It's very travel friendly.This trio has three great and usable colors.You can create black smokey eyes or an eye makeup look using a blend of pink and silver alone or a pink and black blend for a formal look.I have used the pink as a blusher too.The silver color can be used to highlight facial areas other then brows.
The color pay off is good.However,I felt that you do need to build the colors a bit,especially the black shadow.It will come off as a faded black on first application,but can be built up for a pigmented black.The eye shadows work great over a primer.
The texture is soft.I didn't find them chalky or rough at all. Even though black has glitter,it is not gritty.I didn't experience much fall outs. This is why I like this trio.It enables you to achieve a subtle,formal look in a neat fashion.
The staying power is just fine.I have worn them for 3-4 hours,so can't claim for more then that.The colors stay much longer over a primer.
Overall,I think this trio is pretty good.Wet n wild has introduced other color combinations in this product(walking on eggshells,I'm feeling retro),but only this one has good color pay off,so I hear.Here are other Wet n Wild products on just4girls.
RECOMMENDED:
If you love smokey eyes and want a travel friendly kit to get the look on the go.
RATING:
A PINSPIRED look I created after being inspired by pintrest.:-P

I really love the colours in this packaging! I don't have really good experience with wet and wild eyeshadows, however! That sugarpill is amazing and I must be under a rock because I've never seen it before! You know, I would be so interested in you doing a post about popular brands of cosmetics in Pakistan that are from Pakistan... you know not: revlon, wet and wild, essence. etc. I have heard of lakme and elle18 I believe.
ReplyDeletethankyou for visiting Aleksandra :) I actually do posts on Pakistani brands from time to time.Sadly there are very few local brands out in the market which can be reviewed.However,I will try and share more of my local brand experience in future.You can check my post on medora and luscious,which are as good as any international brand.
ReplyDeletePS:elle and makme are indian brands :(
Oooh, thank you for the response! You can't get Indian brands in Pakistan?! I will keep my eyes open for the local brands you do! I find it so fascinating. I'm also jealous of Europe because they get soooo many different brands and I feel like in Canada we get the standard big brands!
