Wet n Wild 8 Pan Palette - Comfort Zone Review

Hello my beautifuls how are you all doing today.  Lordy im looking outside and im hating what im seeing.  Its dark and dull all day long and of course raining but its mild so i cant complain too much. 
Do you remember I took part in a swap about 3 months ago or so ?  I done two blog posts so far on the items i recieved which was a) The Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color  and b) Milani Shadow Eyez 12 hour Wear Eyeshadow Pencils both of which were on my wishlist :) Well today I am reviewing another item i recieved in the swap and was also on my wishlist and that is the Wet n Wild 8 pan Eye-shadow Palette in Comfort Zone which i found extremely hard to get but thanks to Shirley she got it for me :) yeeeeeeeee
I am a huge huge fan of Wet n Wild eye-shadows as you will see lots of reviews on my blog about them and i only wish Wet n Wild would become available over here some time in the near future please :) 
Wet n Wild however is available in America and some sites on the net so it is not impossible to get Wet n Wild.  I will add link at the end to where you could purchase some for yourself :) 
Anyway back to this fantastic palette 
There is only 3 different shades of the 8 pan palettes available 
Blue had me at hello 
Comfort Zone 
Petal Pusher 
These cost an amazing $5 each yes $5 which is less than 4 euro for 8 eyeshadows bargain bargain bargain !!!!!!!
Eight dynamic, perfectly color-coordinated shades with high pigment and pearl for ultra-impact color. Shades can be used together or individually to create an endless variety of looks.
The packaging is brilliant for the price too.  There is no mirror just a clear lid showing the shades.  The lid is sturdy enough not to break in your bag but if it did get a bad bang it will crack.  
You are also getting an applicator one side is a sponge type brush and the other is a slanted brush which is handy if you didnt own any brushes of your own. 
This palette is by far my favourite out of the 2 8 pans I own.  Blue had me at hello is made up of blues, silvers and blacks whereas Comfort Zone is made up of Neutral and and greens.  This palette is so so perfect for Fall/Autumn looks.  
I can actually see some Urban Decay and Mac dupes in this palette for sure.  
Starting with the row down on the left: 
Browbone shade is a shimmery goldy shade this is perfect for the brow-bone and the inner corner of the eyes or you could use this as a base.  I find this a little too shimmery for the brow as i am more on the pale side but a woman of colour will benefit from this as a brow highlight :) 
The eyelid shade is a shimmery bronze pink shade.  This looks stunning on the lid it really opens up the eyes.
The crease shade is a beautiful goldy bronze shade again shimmery :) this is stunning and could also be used on the lid :) This reminds me so much of Urban Decays eyeshadow "Smog"
The definer shade is a deep dark brown with reddish and coppery shimmers this is absolutely stunning and one of my favourites.  The pigmentation is absolutely unreal from this and you will find the tiniest tap of the brush will do alot 
Next is the row on the right side:
The browbone shade is quite an unusual highlight shade its a pale taupe gold I would certainly not use this under the brow.  But i would use it as an inner corner highlight or inner 2/3's :) its a stunning shade i really like it :) 
The eyelid shade is a stunning shimmery green with gold shimmer.  A perfect lid shade :) 
The Crease shade is stunning :) its a black with green and gold shimmer this is a bit on the powdery side and can create fall out if you are not careful but is very pigmented :) 
The definer is a great dupe for Mac's "Club" this is a stunning shade rusky brown green duochrome eyeshadow again very powdery but very very pigmented 
All swatches were made with no primer underneath.  These shadows feel amazingly soft and creamy.  They are amazingly pigmented each and every one of them even the highlight shades.  You are certainly getting huge value for your money for these little beauties.  They blend extremely well.  With a primer and a base they last all day long without fading which is amazing too.  What more can I really say about this palette only that everyone should have it really I mean that from the bottom of my heart its well well worth it. 
Here is some links to where you can purchase this palette :) 
I hope you enjoyed this review.  I have one more item in 2 different shades to review from this swap which will be coming soon :) 
Until next time
Lots of Love Luck and laughter 







I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Wet N Wild 8 Pan Palette "Blue Had me at Hello"





Hey my beauties :)
Today i have another Wet N Wild Review 
This time its an 8 Pan Eyeshadow Palette
"Blue Had Me at Hello"
I did mention in my video that i thought there was 4 8 pan palettes available from wet n wild but there is actually only 3 available.  
All 8 pan palettes have 
2 browbone/highlight shades 
2 lid shades 
2 crease shades 
2 Definer shades 
and they each cost $5 each which is the same price as the 6 pan palettes.
Blue had me at hello is a cool toned palette containing Silvers/blues/blacks
Starting with your left side you are getting:
  • A shimmery off silver shade not the highest of pigmentation but perfect for tear duct
  • A very pigmented silver with a bluish undertone
  • A dark navy with light blue sparkle bits almost looks black in photos
  • A matte black which is perfect for multi-use 
Then on the Right side you are getting:
  • A baby blue which is fine on the lid i dont really know about using it as a browbone shade.  I wouldnt use it on the browbone but other people might 
  • A nice green/blus shade with a metallic finish
  • A fab deep blue with shimmer 
  • A matte black with silver shimmer

I find this palette is well worth purchasing as i said in my video i will certainly be purchasing the other 2 palettes.  These eyeshadows really shocked with with the texture, pigmentation and quality.  For $5 thats more than worth it.  If used with a primer these eyeshadows will last all day and well into the night.  They are amazing and you dont need to keep dipping your brush into the eyeshadow to build them up either.  The only eyeshadows i would say are not as pigmented would be the silver browbone and maybe the matte black and the black with silver shimmer but again you would only need to dip your brush a couple time more than the rest of the shades. 

So thats it everyone thats my review on this fantastic palette.  Keep an eye out for reviews on the other 8 pan eyeshadow palettes i have ordered and waiting on.  They will be up in the near future. 
I hope you enjoyed my review.  If you have any questions please ask away and comment below i love getting your lovely comments :) 
until next time 
Lots of Love Luck & Laughter
