Product Review: Wet N' Wild Color Icon E/S Palette in Vanity

Hey!

So I picked up the Wet n' Wild Color Icon E/S Palette in Vanity at my local CVS the other day, after watching youtube videos about this product. There are six shadows in this palette (3 matte and 3 shimmer). Its a neutral palette that includes different color combination's to create the perfect neutral eye. I have used tihs palette twice so far. I love it, but I'm not in love with it. I consider myself to have a caramel skin tone, and this palette, in my opinion, has a better color payoff on lighter skin (even lighter than my skin tone). I would probably only use this palette when I don't feel like doing much to my face.

Below is a pic of the Vanity palette, and two youtube videos from makeup guru's who have posted tutorials, using this palette. Enjoy!

Product Review: CS 26 Shadow Blush Palette

Hey dolls,
This product review is looong overdue. I got this palette for Christmas, and have been wanting it for a while now. I already have Coastal Scents 28 Eye Shadow Neutral Palette, and this palette is similar to that only because the shadows are neutral in color. I love this palette a lot. If you were going away on a trip this would definitely be the only palette you'll need. Not only does it come with eye shadows ranging in color from golds, corals, grey's, purple's and browns, but it also comes with blushes. The textures include matte and shimmer. Below are pictures of my palette and the actual palette from Coastal Scents, so that you can see the color better!

LOTD: Look of the Day


Hola Dolls!!!

So here is a look I did a few days ago, using samples of eyeshadow I received from work. The brand is Cargo and I love their color palettes. I'm not sure how many color palettes they have, but I know my store only carried four of them. The two palettes that I sampled eyeshadow from were Tahiti and Vienna. All the palettes are named after cities. These colors are very vibrant, pigmented, and go so smooth. Love It.

So below is the look I came up with and the products I used. Hope you enjoy! SN: The eyelashes are Ardell #111.



From the Tahiti palette, I used the two second color on the bottom row, which is a nice teal color. And from the Vienna palette, I used the second color on the top row, which is a nice navy/gray color and I also used the first color on the bottom row, which is a nice caramel color. Check out Cargo for more products including their liquid foundation. Love it!

NEW LOOK: Jet Black & Red

Trying something different for the winter time! Did something dramatic (well not really, but dramatic for me)...so used to having sandy brown hair, but I'm getting used to this new look. Thinking about switching up my hair look and color every season. Will def go back to a brown/honey for the spring/summer!
