Wet n Wild and L'Oreal: Bright Blue Look!

Today I have an old look from Spring or Summer 2013 I think? I really like how this look came out, I plan on doing it again for the 4th of July.

I used:
ELF Eyelid Primer
Darling Girl Glitter Glue
Wet n Wild Shades of the Hamptons  palette (light blue on lid, medium blue in crease and outer corner.)
L'Oreal Cherie Merie on inner corner
L'Oreal Dive Right In patted over the whole lid and blended above crease
Maybelline Line Stiletto liquid liner
WnW black eyeliner
Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara

Wet n Wild Fergie Hampton Shades Swatches and Review

A couple weeks ago I found the limited edition Wet n Wild Fergie collection for Summer 2013. I ended up buying both Photo Op eyeshadow palettes and 2 nail polishes. Today I have swatches of the brighter, more colorful eyeshadow palette called Hampton Shades. I found the pigmentation the be the same level as the permanent line of Fergie eyeshadows, but the texture is silkier with less fall out. Without primer the eyeshadows are decently pigmented, but don't adhere very well. Primer is a must. And if you're like me and want your eyeshadow to be completely opaque, then I suggest using a sticky base such as NYX Jumbo Pencils or Darling Girl Glitter Glue.

Descriptions:

The Top Left is a warm toned, very light blue with a satin finish.

Top Right is a light, warm toned, purple with a satin finish.

Bottom Right is a warm toned, medium grassy green with a satin finish and gold/red shimmer.

Bottom Left is a neutral toned, medium, bright blue with a satin finish.

The Middle shade is a warm toned, gold shimmer with gold glitter. There was a little bit of fallout with this shade, but a primer or base will fix that easily.

As usual, I swatched with a patting motion with an ELF eyeshadow brush over Darling Girl Glitter Glue.

Wet n Wild Fergie Nail Polish Cabo Cruise

Today I have another limited edition product from the Fergie Summer collection by Wet n Wild. Cabo Cruise is the first of two nail polishes that I bought. It's a vivid, darkish, yellow toned blue crelly with scattered green flecks. Super pretty! I absolutely love this polish. In these photos I am wearing a basecoat and 2 coats of Cabo Cruise. The formula was lovely, it smoothed easily on and with short nails you could get away with one thick coat. Dry time was a little longer than normal.

Just a warning that my pictures are not color accurate. Cabo Cruise is not neon, but the blue is bright despite being fairly dark, and  therefore it doesn't photograph well.

 

 This last photo I tried to color correct as close to how the color looks in person. It's closer than my other swatches, but still not quite yellow toned enough or bright enough.

Wet n Wild Fergie Newport Nights Swatches

     A few days ago I found the limited edition Wet n Wild Fergie collection for Summer 2013. I ended up buying both Photo Op eyeshadow palettes and 2 nail polishes. Today I have swatches of the lighter, more neutral eyeshadow palette called Newport Nights. I found the pigmentation the be the same level as the permanent line of Fergie eyeshadows, but the texture is silkier with less fall out.

Descriptions:

The Top Left is a matte cream shade. A more yellow toned, sheerer version of Wet n Wild Brulee.

Top Right is a pale, yellow toned, baby pink with a satin finish and a scattering of subtle, silver shimmers.

Bottom Right is a red toned, medium orange somewhere between a satin and a frosty finish with gold shimmer. Kind of reminds me of terracotta.

Bottom Left is a warm toned, medium violet with the same satin/frost finish and subtle blue shimmer.

The Middle shade is a warm toned, brownish bronze shimmer with gold glitter. There was a little bit of fallout with this shade, but a primer or base will fix that easily.

As usual, I swatched with a patting motion with an ELF eyeshadow brush over Darling Girl Glitter Glue.
