Swatch, FOTD - Wet n Wild Greed & Lust Palettes

I am quite late to jump on the bandwagon but I finally managed to get a couple of these Wet n Wild palettes.
(Thanks for the enabling, Stacey! :P)

My first choice was the inspirational Lust  palette, of course, and I grabbed another palette called Greed  as well.

Wet n Wild Greed  & Lust  palettes

Here are the close-up pics and swatches of the goodies. :)

Lust



Greed



Each palette contains 3 matte & 3 shimmery shades.
I find some of the matte shades are a little bit chalky but they are all super-pigmented and finely milled.
very impressive quality for a more affordable drugstore brand!
(*whispers* It is better than Maybelline...)
My favorite color is the gun metal grey from the Lust palette. 
It is just golden. (ironic for a grey shade, but you know what I mean. ;p)

Today I tried the matte shades from the Greed  palette. (pale peach, salmon, matte black)
These are not something I would normally wear on my lids but I am glad I tried them!
The matte black color is quite intense and it easily doubles as a soft eyeliner, and it looks nice when blended with warmer salmon color.




Also, I am wearing the Ardel falsies(108) again and I think I have improved a bit. ;D
For your reference, I am wearing
MAC Jest  lipstick (lips)
Bare Minerals Sorbet  blush (cheeks)
Revlon PhotoReady Mousse makeup in Shell

The possibilities would be endless but I'll be able to create at least 4 different looks with these palettes.
I am very excited! :)

  2. The palettes are so pretty! I've always wanted to pick up a wet & wild palette, but at the store I would get them at, they're always dirty and cracked! Like what the heck, man!! You look great as always!

  4. You're never too late to jump on the WNW bandwagon!! Glad you got Lust! ;)
    I even think some of the WNW shimmer eyeshadows compare with higher end ones, it's a real bargain!!

  13. i am glad i stepped out my comfort zone and tried Greed palette. i normally shy away from orange/peach as much as i do from green colors. lol.

    ReplyDelete
  14. thank you, Sunny :)
    i am excited to try all the colors.
    the shimmery shades from lust palette are all so pigmented. i was shocked!

    ReplyDelete
  15. thank you, Camilla. :)
    i think WnW is best out of those cheaper drugstore brands. sometimes i favor them over maybelline or covergirl.
    the packaging could be prettier but i can't really complain at that price. ;p

  16. i was interested in these before but i think you gorgeous FOTD pics made the decision for me. ;D
    they are really great quality!

    ReplyDelete
  17. i know!
    it's prolly because the eyeshadows are very soft and the packaging is flimsy.
    i've seen many broken inside, too.
    i hope you can find clean unbroken ones one sale soon! :D

  18. thank you!
    i thought i wouldn't like it as much but actually i do. i am glad. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  19. thanks, Janine :)
    it is mostly the bright lighting. the foundation i used is quite good at light difusing as well.
    (there i revealed my secrets. lol)

  26. i like that the colors are not just random, they are well thought-out. WnW is the best among all the cheapy brands. ;)
    now..if they could do something about the packaging...;p (wishful thinking?)

    ReplyDelete
  27. let's just hope WnW thrives and goes global!
    thanks for dropping by! :)

  30. i know, nowadays it is so hard to find nice non-chalky(?) matte shades.
    i was surprised to see the lighter colors stays throughout the day as well. :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. As much as I love Wet N Wild products, I try not to buy too many eyeshadow palettes because I never end up using them and then they pile up... but these colors are super intense and pigmented! I probably will end up getting these both!

  34. you look stunning as always hon <3 I like this look, it's subtle and soft! :)

  35. Yay falsies! They look good on you! ^^ I'm quite surprised how pigmented the WnW palettes are. They don't have a great rep where I live but now I'm tempted to give them a try.

    ReplyDelete
  36. i think falsies really help when i wear lighter colors on my lids. i don't look as sleepy. lol
    WnW eyeshadows are great, in my opinion. at least better quality than covergilr or maybelline eyeshadows. :)

  37. aww Diane :)
