wet n wild Color Icon Eyeshadow – Ultra-Pigmented, Brulee

I really liked the color; it went on smoothly and with good coverage. However, I transport my makeup daily… most of it has zero problem with that (I don’t bang it around, lol). But in two days this pulverized as shown in the picture. Not sturdy. Luckily it was very inexpensive. I would recommend if you keep your makeup in one place and never move it.

The palette is small. This eye shadow is a must try for the budget-friendly. The application is smooth and long lasting , the Color is vibrant and blends evenly and without blotches.

It was a bit smaller than I expected but that’s on me for not reading all the details. Very sparkly and the gel(?) that it’s in makes it stick to my eyes great. I’m only just getting into makeup so this was a good quality but not expensive product to help expand my makeup 🙂

Just what I wanted for my daughter’s Taylor Swift Halloween costume. I just wanted a super small pack of pink glitter eye shadow and this fits the bill. Perfect small product size, easy application, very affordable. Happy with the purchase.

The picture appears the color has a tan or sandy color with a slight sheen or metalic shimmer to it, and even the name “brulee” insinuates a lightly toasted or caramelized color. This eyeshadow has no caramel, tan, or brown in it whatsoever, and is definitely matte. The color is a very matte pink with just a touch of purple that’s so pale it’s nearly white. I bought this color to use as a highlight color with the darker “Nutty” shade, and was extremely disappointed when I opened the shipping box (which contained several other items I had ordered) and saw that the “Brulee” color (which was securely wrapped in a bubble wrap pouch) was actually a very pale baby powder pink/lilac color, and the “Nutty” color eyeshadow ( which actually matches the picture and discription) had been tossed in the box, no bubble wrap or even a sealed plastic outer bag, had bounced around inside the box, causing the pressed powder to be pulverized into dust, and without anything around it to contain the mess, everything in my order was completely covered in a baby powder fine layer of “nutty” colored shimmery dust. The eyeshadow was ruined without any chance of salvaging any if it, and several of the other items I had order that were fabric that had been shipped in thin plastic bags (that weren’t sealed) were completely ruined also. Why would a seller be conscious that the tiny, fragile eyeshadows are very likely to break apart during shipping and carefully wrap ONE eyeshadow in an appropriate amount of bubble wrap to survive the journey, but then have absolutely nothing to protect the other eyeshadow at all?? Not that it should have been necessary, but there was even enough room in the bubble pouch the first shadow was wrapped in, that both colors could have easily been wrapped together so they would both be protected. NOPE, the second shadow was just tossed bare into the large shipping box like an after thought, ruining 8 out of 9 items in my order, and the only item that was securely wrapped enough to survive was the other eyeshadow from the same seller. For real!???
And just to prepare you for how small these shadows are, each shadow is 1.25″ L x 1″ W, and the actual amount of pressed powder inside is .75″ x .50″.

The color itself is highly saturated, picks up and puts down beautifully, and is overall an impressive quality of dense, silky, easily blendable color. A little goes a long way, unlike most low cost shadows that has to be applied multiple time because hardly any color gets picked up on the brush. I barely need to tap my brush on the shadow to pick up enough to evenly and thuroughly cover my lid from the lash line to the crease. One application is all I need. The color picks up so well, in fact, that it’s very easy to pick up too much product so when you apply the shadow the excess falls onto your eyelashes, cheek area under your eye, or even the side of your nose. You just barely need to touch your brush to the shadow to pick up enough color to cover a larger area than most drug store quality eyeshadows that require going back and picking up more product several times in order to get the color density and saturation your trying to achieve.

The product itself is an excellent quality shadow. A little goes a LONG way, otherwise the size of these shadows would render them useless. But don’t let the size fool you. These will likely outlast most other eyeshadows twice their size because of the concentration and saturation of color they apply. It’s kinda like the bottle of laundry soap I buy that is half the size and uses 50% less packaging but I still get the same amount of loads as the big bottle. The seller just needs to be consistent about wrapping such small, fragile items so each one is adequately protected to survive transit and actually be usable when its delivered to the person who purchased it.

This is waited a while for and ended up forgetting I ordered it , now that I have it I’m very unimpressed. It’s very very tiny and doesn’t really do as advertised. It barley gets eyes lids glittery and the glitter that does stay on ends up on your check or eye lashes.
Not worth the price for the size.
