Look using Wet n Wild Comfort Zone Palette

Finally tried one of the new Wet n Wild 8-pan palettes I picked up. Decided to start with Comfort Zone. This palette is amazing. I took a ton of pictures trying to pick up the green duochrome on that Club-esque shadow, don't know if I really captured it well, though.

Brows are still looking rough. They're almost grown to where I want them to be, but I'm starting to get impatient! Normally I complain about them growing in too fast, now they can't grow fast enough?

Here's what the palette looks like:
I used the right half of it this time.


You can start to see the green duochrome in the flash pictures. Mmmmmm duochrome....

This was:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Browbone shade on browbone and in inner corner
Lid shade on lid
Crease shade in crease and on lower lashline
Definer shade in crease
Stila Waterproof Liquid Liner in Chocolate Brown
Stila Glitter Liner in Kitten
Cover Girl Lash Blast

If you have brown eyes and an extra $5 to spend on makeup, YOU NEED TO GET THIS! It's AMAZING! It makes my black-brown eyes look like there's actually color in them and it's so easy to apply and blend. The shades are nicely pigmented and super soft, no chalky hard shadows here. Every color in the palette is gorgeous. I can't believe it's only $5, it's so nice. The only downside for me is that the shades labelled "Browbone" are way too frosty for me to wear on my browbone. I'm just not a fan of that frosty-shiny-reflective white browbone highlight look. I prefer a matte or just a slight shimmer as a highlight. But, other than that, excellent palette.

And I forgot to add- I use a Shiseido eyelash curler. People always ask and I just forget to mention it. I recently switched from the Shu Uemura and I couldn't be happier. I love the Shiseido way more, especially since they actually sell refills for it, unlike the Shu. I've been meaning to do a full review of it, but I get so distracted by pretty shiny things that I never end up posting one!

  4. Your eyes are always so gorgeous! How does the Shiseido eyelash curler differ from the SU?

  5. Thank you :)

    EVB911, the Shiseido has a much wider, flatter (less curved) pad so it doesn't ever pinch me. You can also get curler pad refills for the Shiseido, Shu doesn't sell them, forcing you to buy a new curler every time you run out of pads. That's enough to make me switch for good!

  6. I have the blue palette and I used the dark blue (I don't remember the name) and after a few hours it started creasing, not really bad but enough for me to notice. And I also used UD primer potion. Did this happen to you after a while?

  7. Can you comment on how these shadows differ from Wet 'n' Wild's holiday palettes and/or last year's core palettes (named after deadly sins, I have Lust)? I know the colors aren't quite the same, but I'm wondering about pigmentation and softness and fallout compared between the two. Thanks!

  8. Royalty04, hmm, I didn't have any creasing, but I did notice that the colors were slightly faded by the time I went to bed.

    TropicalChrome, they're really similar, the texture and everything is pretty much the same, but at least one shade in every palette seems to be less pigmented than the others (the duochrome-ish shades), otherwise, practically the same formula

  27. Thanks for your Post! Perfect~
    I Love mascara, really Great effective eyelash curlers and all things Lashes.

    My new favorite is the Hot Lashes heated 2 pc lash curler. It has gotten great reviews at Amazon.com--Cult favorite Hot Lashes Makeup artist Kit..Absolute best out there~!

    They have a great sturdy 24K gold metal curler similiar to the Shu Uemura and Sheisdo one that comes with its own seperate pink small heater base that heats just the pad in the curler, this way my curl really lasts.

    Makes my eyes POP and keeps my lashes super curly, they have a website Hotlashes.com...HTH~

    Major Rave, the cadillac of curlers..so worth the price. My friends and I love love love this one! Best by far,,
    HTH~…:) Abundant blessings to all..
