Hi friends! I picked up the three new Wet ‘n’ Wild 8-pan eyeshadow palettes for $5 each at Walgreens last night. This is part three of a series of posts for each one – enjoy! This review is for Comfort Zone (I saved the best for last!).
I have numbered the shades in each palette so I can refer to them separately, since the individual shades don't have names. You can click on any picture to view it at full size. First, here are some product pictures:
And here are the swatches (all done over Urban Decay Primer Potion)!
Finally, here are my thoughts on the individual shades:
- Buttery, shimmery gold.
- Shimmery light copper - almost the color of a brand-new penny.
- Warm, shimmery light bronze. Reminds me of MAC Tempting.
- Very dark plum (or is it brown?) with multi-colored, warm-toned shimmer.
- Light, shimmery, golden taupe. Beautiful.
- Bright, shimmery, olive drab green. Also beautiful.
- Dark chocolate brown infused with tons of gold and bronze shimmer. This is like Dior Czarina Gold nail polish in eyeshadow form!
- Shimmery rust with a strong light blue/lavender flash. I have no idea how to wear shades like this! I've heard this is a dupe of MAC Club, but I haven't seen Club in a long time, so I can't confirm or deny that. However, I can confirm that it is the same shade as the bottom left shade in the Wet 'n' Wild Night Elf palette from their Holiday 2010 collection.
Overall, I think this is a fabulous palette. The pigmentation was perfect on every single shadow - there were no disappointments. It blows my mind that this is only $5; I’d gladly pay $5 each just for the shades I labeled #s 1, 3, 5, and 6. I think I may end up getting use out of every shade in this palette! Some of the ones I'm not sure I can pull off, but I plan to give them all at least one try on my eyes. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone – it has a pleasant variety of both cool and warm shades, so everyone should be able to find something in it they like.
I hope you enjoyed my little mini-series on these palettes! :)







I totally agree with you. This is an amazing palette. I swatched color 8 next to MAC's Blue Brown pigment and it is an exact dupe.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I need this palette. $5 is such a steal!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the swatches of all three palettes! I wonder if these will travel well? Btw my Night elf palette broke just when I dropped it :( Good to know the color I love has a dupe in Comfort Zone. :D
ReplyDeleteMakeupandme - I find the packaging is a bit weak, too. The compacts can be hard to open and don't really offer any protection. I plan to depot them all!
ReplyDeleteoooh can you post a depot tutorial? I might want to head this way too... Gorgeous swatches btw! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! I'll try to make a depotting tutorial my next post :) Might not have time for it right away but I'll let you know when I get to it!
ReplyDeleteJust found many at my walgreens all 3. The only one I got was "petal pusher" cuz thats the only one i felt crazzy about. At my walmart they only "blue had me at hello"
ReplyDeleteSO I SPOKE TO THE MANAGER AT CVS AND THEY WILL DEFINATLY NOT HAVE IT BECAUSE WET N WILD IS NOW A LINE THEY DONT CARRY, AND IN PLACE OF WET N WILD THEY SELL NYC COSMETICS.
"just saying in case anyone was wondering "
My shade in MAC foundation is NC42 so im a tan/ beige skintone so in case anyone would like to see the swatches on a darker skin tone check out
