Follow my blog with Bloglovin Hey everyone, I hope all is well! Today I come to you with a review. Wet n' Wild is a cosmetics brand that I've just know started to experiment with. I've tried quite a few things from them, and I'm really impressed. I think Wet n' Wild's amazingly affordable prices and great quality products are a great sign for anyone to try out their stuff. Their Color Icon Trio palettes are eyeshadow palettes that come with 3 shades. One for the Eyelid, the Crease, and the Brow bone. Perfect for someone who has recently started off with makeup and want to create that simple smokey eye look. At around $2.99 each, they are definitely a steal.


Packaging: The eyeshadow palette seems secure in it's plastic casing. They make a lot of different shades for this particular palette, so it';s nice that they have a clear lid so you can see each one clearly. Along with the eye shadows, the palette comes with two little applicators (one sponge & one tiny brush).



Color/Pigmentation: The eyeshadows give off a pretty "safe" wash of color. If I want to have a bold show up of color with these shades I have to really pack on the shadows. This palettes colors also come up a bit chalky. Especially the brow bone shade, with is common for most light/matte eyeshadows. The crease color comes up well and is really bold. To me the most annoying shade is the eyelid shade. It comes up plain, and unappealing when applied to my eyes.



Quality: I think that this palette was well thought up. It was an amazing idea to have 3 different eyeshadows in one palette with designated to each part of the eye. Great for people who are just starting out with makeup, but the shadows themselves just come off pretty short when it comes to pigmentation. The eyeshadows are chalky, and not really "easy" to apply.

Overall, I think that the idea for this palette was great, but these colors just aren't working well enough. Maybe the other shades in this palette collection have better color payoff, but this one just falls short.

Hey lovelies, just came to tell you that my new makeup tutorial is up now! I recreated one of BeautyByJJ's most popular makeup tutorials. She used MAC's Shop and Drop Eyeshadow Palette to do it. I did it differently by using cheap drugstore brands! I hope you guys can enjoy the video!!


If you want to see me do more makeup tutorials like this please let me now :)

Bye for now, Mariam :*

 Packaging:  The eyeshadow comes in a a sturdy-plastic jar, that has a strong cap. One thing noticeable about this product is the size. The jar is bigger than the e.l.f matte eyeshadows, which come in a similar jar. The amount of product in the jar is really amazing for only $3. It is jammed packed with product, and will most likely last you a long time. Some haul's and reviews of this cream eyeshadow that I'd seen was that this product can come dried out, or hard. My jar of product was moist, and pliable. But I guess it depends on your own special preference. You have to make sure to tighten the top on the jar really well, because it can lead to drying out the cream eyeshadow.



 Color/Pigmentation: I got this cream eyeshadow in the color "Bronzed". I got this because I heard about using it as a base for your eyeshadow. It was priced at $3, amazingly inexpensive for something of this quality. The color is a a mixture of brown and gold, and it is just what the name says "Bronzed" In the picture below you can see what it looks like on my finger. It's actually quite pigmented when you apply it.

Quality: I have gotten questions on whether this product creases or not. My answer can be a little weird because I only use this as a base. I don't use it on it's own, but I could if I wanted to. But when I use this under my eyeshadow, it makes it last longer, and stand out more. I for one have oily eyelids, so my eye makeup doesn't really last all day, but this makes it last a little longer and adhere to my lids more.

Overall, I think this cream eyeshadow is well worth the $3 you pay for it. I think that it could be a product that I use everyday for all types of makeup looks. I didn't really find any negatives with this product, so I think it's pretty good. I hope to purchase more colors at another time.

Hi everyone, I hope everyone had an amazing holiday/new year season! Today I'm doing a review on a makeup product from E.l.f Cosmetics. E.l.f is a cosmetics brand that develops makeup that is amazing in quality but way cheaper than other major brands, and when I say cheaper I mean CHEAPER! Most of their makeup only cost $5 or less. I love E.l.f and I'll be doing more and more on the brand. 


The product I'm reviewing today is the E.l.f Eyelid Primer. I purchased this products about 3-4 months ago for only $1 and I am ready to unveil what I think of it. Keep reading if you want to learn more.
According to E.l.f...this primer "Preps your eyelid for smoother, longer-lasting and crease-proof eyeshadow. The ultra sheer nude color works to increase eye color longevity. The lightweight liquid formula quickly absorbs into the skin for comfortable wear." 


I wear eye makeup almost everyday and I use this before I apply any makeup. When I first purchased it I used it incorrectly. I applied the primer directly all over my eyelid. After about 2 weeks or so I saw a video on the correct way to apply it. When applying this primer you definitely don't want to over use it. It will dry on your eyelid and become a tacky looking mess, plus your wasting product. Just applying one or two little "dots" will get the job done. The formula will smooth out and give you a clean canvas to apply makeup on.
I have this primer in the shade "Sheer" as you can see it isn't my skin tone, but it blends out.

On the website they have 3 new shades which are

• Champane-a light rosy pink
• Pearl-a bright, shimmery white
• Golden-yellow based with shimmers

Overall this primer is amazing and it is worth that buck. It is most definitely comparable to other more expensive brands.
