Review/FOTD: Getting "Wet 'N Wild"!!

Before I get into my post, I just want to let you guys know that you can comment without trouble now! I had no idea a lot of you guys were having trouble commenting due to my layout, but thank you to those who pointing that out to me. ♥ I love reading every single one of the comments. Seriously~ all of you are awesome and it makes me happy in commenting back too. (Check previous post here.)


I love playing on words! Anyways, the rain storms are upon us yet again here in LA. -sigh- I think my spring break has really left me "rained in". Oh well. I haven't been TOTALLY unproductive.

Didn't go out today, but I had some fun with my two new Wet 'N Wild Mega Last Lip Colors and another Wet 'N Wild palette that I won from Dinorah's giveaway in "GREED."

MEGA SHINE LIP COLORS:

Price: 10/10; regular $2.99 - Not bad at all for a lipstick since most go for $7-$9. Picked these two up from Rite Aid at BOGO 50% off.

Packaging: 8/10; They're super simple, which I like a lot. They're easy to twist up and down as well. The only two "dislikes" I have about the packaging is how the name of the colors were only on the plastic wrapping (boo), since I like the names that companies come up for their products, AND how even though the packaging is secure, I do have to be careful with taking the caps off to be sure not to nick it.



L-R: Rose Bud & In the Flesh
And yes, that's Koda Kumi at the bottom if you guys were wondering. ♥

Wear: 9/10; Some key points: Great wear. Lasted enough through dinner. Not at all drying. Finish is very matte, but with enough shine to go out without lipgloss. Good pigmentation.

For the price, these lipsticks are great. At first, I was hesitant in getting these two colors since they seemed so similar from the outside and from the color swatches they give at the bottom...BUT, I figured why not try 'em! (BTW, I tried to do swatches but, my camera wasn't working with them. Lame.)

Gomen, this comparison picture isn't the greatest...but you can see the difference in tint/color.
TOP: In the Nude: Very peachy and slightly orange.
I like this color, though it kind of blends into my skin tone.
It's a neutral, but I like it a lot.
BOTTOM: Rose Bud: Oh! PINK! I'm liking this color!
A bit more on the fuchsia side, but I like, I like!

Here's why it looks like on with my full FOTD;
Again, L-R: In the Nude, Rose Bud
(T/N: My mom said I looked like some kind of geisha w/Rose Bud, lol)

Would I recommend this to a friend?: YES!

OVERALL: 9/10 - I'm very pleased with these lipsticks. I had some expectations from them...but now I want more!! (especially if they have a sale again~) Hopefully the next time I'm at Rite Aid, they'll stock up. :D


OH OH! And I was feeling "GREED"y today. (lol) I'm still a noob, but I'm liking this one a lot.
Yup, still sporting the OPI "Do you think I'm Tex-y".
I'll probably change it soon. ^^

Eyes:
  • UDPP
  • Wet 'N Wild "GREED" palette
  • jane gliding eyeliner: top lash line - 'blackest ice'; bottom last line - 'scuba' (will be reviewing these soon!)
  • CG lastexact waterproof mascara in 'very black'


Face:
  • Skin79 BB Cream "The Prestige Beblesh Balm" from their Diamond Collection
  • ELF tinted moisturizer in "Porcelain"
  • ELF Studio Complexion Perfection
  • ELF Studio blush in "Candid Coral"

Lips:
  • 'moist Lip' lipbalm (Japanese)
  • Wet 'N Wild Mega Shine Lip Color in "In the Nude" (for above picture.)

What do you guys think? It definitely brings out my beady (yes, I have small eyes~) eyes out. Yay. ^^

Alrighty, those of you experiencing the rain, stay warm and stay dry! For those of you in warmer, more sunny, pleasant areas...care to send 10 degrees? :D
