I’m almost at the end of my US exclusives, I promise.. also almost done with the pink/purple hair pics.. gotta say every time I see it I get a hankering to do it again but it was far too costly both to my wallet and the condition of my hair to quite dare to.. anyway.. tangent. Wet n Wild are known for their eyeshadow palettes and the last time I had the opportunity to pick this blogger favourite up there was only 1 in stock and a friend had asked me to get her one.. I made a choice, I had to live with it. 2 years later I finally have it and it does not disappoint!!
The shadows are all just as soft and creamy as they say, the pigmentation is immense for such a low cost product, I would say it’s as close as you’re going to get to the likes of Urban Decay without ponying up that extra bit of cash, I just love it and every time I look at it I cry a little inside about not having it available here in the UK.. also that two of the shadows broke a little in transit.. it will be well looked after now. There are no dud shades here, they all offer great pay off and although the colours are varied they work so well together, I can see why this combination is the most popular. There are plenty of others available as well as quads to choose from and the next opportunity I have I will be stocking up on some more so if you have an recommendations I’d love to hear them – hoping to get back to Vegas early next year, fingers and toes crossed!
I realise now that I could have created something much more bold to show you how lovely this palette really is but I went for something I’d actually wear and honestly the fact that the shimmery, ‘brow bone’ colours translated on the skin was nothing short of a miracle. There are plenty of low end shadows that swatch well but once you try to use them as intended they just fall apart and leave nothing on your lid. I do love my budget brands but eyeshadow is the one area that I feel like I’m not satisfied with from that area. Pretty much anything else, in fact strike that, ANTHING else.. all base products, eyeliner, mascara, blush, lipstick.. I would be more than happy to use drugstore only variations for the rest of my life but I had never found anything that cuts it in this department until I tried this. I am holding out a lot of hope for a UK launch since I have heard frequent rumours of Irish sightings but until then I will be scouring eBay and being tempted..
I found a seller of this palette (and other colours) here

I want to try the palette, it seems really pretty

Spooky – I’ve just ordered this through Amazon after seeing it somewhere else! The slightly duochrome colour looks lovely. I hope it doesn’t crumble in the post though.
Lovely shades!
Lovely shades, I so wish we had Wet n’ wild here in the UK :o) Xx

You can get some Wet n Wild products on Amazon (e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wet-Wild-Color-Shadow-Pusher/dp/B00H9EMLPM/ref=sr_1_5?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1395492310&sr=1-5&keywords=wet+n+wild) – as it’s direct from Amazon I do trust that it’s genuine, they have quite a few eyeshadows on there that look tempting! The Comfort Zone colours look lovely.
I’m sure the UK will be getting this brand soon! I’m lucky and my friend actually sent me two palettes over from Ireland (so they definitely have it). I also got the walking on egg shells trio which is lovely. I really like the shades in this one and the pigmentation is fab too.
Absolutely adore that last colour swatch!

Great review! I’m terrible, I’m in CA and I still haven’t tried the Wet and Wild palettes. I really need to pick one up! xo Kelly http://msdioraddict.blogspot.com/
Wish I had seen this before I went/came home from NYC as I just didn’t get inspired by the Wet n Wild eye shadows. I bought only the Ultimate Brow Kit…which I wish I had bought more as I simply adore it…think it was only about $5 too which I’m gutted I haven’t got back ups. Little tweezers, little brush, slide out mirror, 2 brow shades and a brow wax!!! I’ve had triple priced products not as good as this little kit. Only other thing I bought from the brand was a megaslicks balm stain…why the heck I didn’t buy more Wet n Wild products I will never know.
The hair looks gorgeous and so does the palette!! I wish Wet ‘n’ Wild would stock in Australia as well.. Oh well, eventually I’ll get to try this out!!

Yup they launched here in Ireland a couple of weeks back. The stands are fairly well stacked and they have a heap of those palettes. I’m sure they’ll be over to ye in no time. Sure they came here and we only really heard about it a couple of days before they really announced it officially (after they had set up the first stand in Dublin)
Love the colours in the palette, definitely going to be checking that out

I ordered the wet n wild trio palette I think it is from beauty joint last night and I’m kicking myself for not opting for this instead. I’m sure I won’t be disappointed in the pigments because the swatches look gorgeous! Neelam xx
