Time to Say Goodbye

Because I am stuck at home for health reasons, I’ve been neglecting some of my makeup and in keeping up with the “Simplify” frame of mind, I’ve decided to finally say goodbye to these: I’ve decided to put them on a blog sale. They will be available at our booth in Alphaland Mall near the food court. If you are interested, please drop by. These are hardly used. They have been mostly used for EOTD’s for this blog. Some were used for clients. Price range is from Php199 to Php350.I won’t be able to host the blog sale here because of health restraints. I love these Wet n Wild palettes. They are highly pigmented and with the right primer, they last the whole day. They are blendable and easy to apply. I will miss these palettes as it took me some time to find all these colors but I won’t be using them for the next couple of months or so and I think it’s better that they find a new home. I’ve decided to just keep my higher end makeup in my collection. Don’t think I’m a snob to drugstor...

EOTD: Pride with a Dash of Lust

I dug these photos up in my archives. They are possibly from 5 months ago when I stopped blogging. Don’t be afraid of color! I made this EOTD using the Pride and Lust palettes of Wet n Wild. (L-R) Pride, Lust I love these palettes as they are affordable and they perform well. You usually can’t expect a drugstore makeup to be good but Wet n Wild eyeshadows are an exception. The colors look daunting at first but the trick lies within your fingers and your brush. Lightly brush against the colors several times then tap your brush for a lighter day look. For night, do heavier strokes and don’t forget to tap to avoid fallouts. These eyeshadows tend to have fallouts but nothing that my ELF fan brush can’t fix.  Just keep building the colors until you reach your desired effect. I have a lot of Wet n Wild eyeshadows and there are a few more that I want to buy. I’m just trying hard to stop myself because I still have a ton of makeup to last me for years!

I Dream of Greenie

Here’s another Wet n Wild palette! And it happens to be one of my favorites (if not my favorite): I love green and I wear it when I’m in a happy mood. Here’s a swatch: I wore this when we went to Ocean Park. This is the EOTD after 5 hours: This is my FOTD. I only re-touched my powder, blush and lipstick. I don’t bring my eyeshadow palettes. After a day of heat and sweat, it still looked vibrant: So I guess it’s safe to say that this is a very good buy right? For only Php299, I get a long-lasting eyeshadow palette. More Wet n Wild Palettes to come!

Lust Smokey Eye

I used the Wet n Wild Lust palette that’s why the title has the word “lust” in it. = ) I used all the shades on the left side plus a bit of shimmer on the bottom shadow on the right to top the look. This isn’t a “clean” smokey eye. I was just testing out this palette. Plus I wasn’t really in the mood to apply makeup as I think I did this at 11 pm. I was very impressed with the Wet n Wild palette. For 500 pesos, I get 6 very fine, very pigmented shades that can give me day or night looks. When I swatched it the first time at the SM counter, I was already impressed but I wasn’t expecting it to perform this good when I actually apply it on my lids. The colors are easy to build  and they blend well with each other. Fallout was minimal. And for something this affordable, I was surprised that it didn’t make my eyes itch. But then again, I only had this on for a few minutes. I’ll find out soon enough. Another thing that I like about this palette are the matte shadows. I’m tryin...
