Today I am reviewing an eyeshadow trio by Wet 'n' Wild! My friend got it from me from Hawaii and I was so excited because I heard so much about it.
I know that Wet 'n' Wild is an inexpensive brand and I believe that this trio retails for around $3. I believe that this is available at any drugstores and Ulta.
There are three colors and this is probably one of the neutral ones that they have. Color labeled 'Brow bone is a light shimmery white color', 'crease' is a golden brown' and 'eyelid' is a light pink color. The colors are very complimentary to each other and I really like that they labelled the colors to where they recommend to put it on. Although you don't HAVE to follow it it's still nice if you're a beginner.
The pigmentation is AMAZING! It's so smooth and buttery, it's the smoothest and butteriest (is that even a word?) eyeshadow I have in my collection. I found that the lightest color labelled 'brow bone' is the most smoothest and most pigmented. All of the shadows don't have any fall out and the eyeshadows last a long time on my eyes.
Overall I am so incredibly happy with this and I recommend is to everyone! It's also so inexpensive and just amazing! I would really like to try the other shades but unfortunately we don't have Wet 'n' Wild here in Japan :(
Anyway, onto the pictures and swatches!
Today's featured product is the Clinique Color Surge Eyeshadow Quad. I thought that Clinique was more known for skin care products but I decided to try their actual makeup. To be honest I have no idea what the name of the quad is but it's a quad with 4 neutral eyeshadows.
First of all, the packaging is nice, it's simple and clean looking which I like a lot.
The selections of the eyeshadows are great. I like that there is an eyeshadow for just a simple eye look that everyone can do and pull off. A highlight, lid color, crease color and the outer corner color.
Eyeshadow description from left to right
1. A light creamy matte color.
2. Shimmery champagne color.
3. Deep charcoal brown with little bit of shimmer
4. Light taupe with a little bit of shimmer
The texture of the eyeshadows are very smooth and velvety. They're not chalky or stiff which are key qualities in an eyeshadow.
They are all equally pigmented except for the lightest matte shade on the left. It's a little bit more sheer but since it's a very light color I can see why. (the swatch made is a few swipes on the finger)
All in all, I think it's a very good quad that you can use on a day to day basis because they have very pretty but simple colors that it's appropriate for an everyday wear.
