Happy Wednesday Lovelies! Today I’m excited to share with you my latest makeup haul of new Wet n’ Wild products. I’m all around impressed with everything I picked up, and I’m especially excited about some of the new pretties for spring.
Wet n’ Wild is probably one of my favorite drugstore brands simply because the quality is great and the price is even better! I picked up all of these products at either Wal-mart or K-mart but I’m pretty sure all except the eyeshadow palette are sold in all of the drugstores as well.
Wet n’ Wild Au Naturel Eyeshadow Palette in Bare Necessities, Wal-mart- $5.62
The back of the palette has a handy little eyeshadow chart for creating different makeup looks
Beautiful neutral shades perfect for everyday looks and smokey eyes
All in all, this palette contains beautiful neutral shades, that contain a nice pigmentation. This palette would be a great choice for someone who is looking for versatile colors that can be worn year round.
As always, I recommend using an eyeshadow primer to enhance the staying power and color impact of the shadows, and I definitely recommend using eyeshadow brushes instead of the one that’s included in the palette itself. For the price point, you really can’t beat this palette!
Wet n’ Wild Geometric Highlighting Powder in Where the Dreamers Go and Desert Explorations, K-mart- $2.99 Each
“Where the Dreamers Go”
Has goldish undertones that appears more subtle on the skin
“Desert Explorations”
Has blueish/rosy undertones, which is more prominent
These highlighting palettes are both really pretty but I think the intensity of the color really depends on your skintone. With having fair skin, the “Desert Explorations” showed up a lot better and I loved how it had more of a rosy tone to it, but I can see how the “Where the Dreamers Go” palette would look beautiful on more golden and darker skin tones.
I think both of these would be great to have on hand for the summer time in adding a little touch of shimmer to the face, but for me personally I love the “Desert Explorations” one!
Wet n’ Wild Lipstick in 501C A Short Affair, Wal-mart- $.99
I’m not really sure if this product was new, but I thought it was such a pretty color I picked it up anyways. I’m a huge fan of Wet n’ Wild lipsticks because I feel like they have a really good staying power and they have a wide range of color choices to choose from. This lipstick is such a pretty neutral, pink shade that would look perfect paired with a smokey eye!
Wet n’ Wild Velvet Matte Lip Color Crayons in Lie Lack and Berry Tales, K-mart- $2.99
These two lip crayons was what I was most excited to try out and I think the shades are so gorgeous for spring! Also, how cute are the names “lie-lack” and “berry tales”?! 🙂 Being the pink/purple lover that I am, of course lie-lack is my favorite and it’s such a gorgeous statement shade!
Wet n’ Wild Color Icon Kohl Eyeliner in Pros and Bronze– $1.99, K-mart
Last but not least is Wet n’ Wild’s Color Icon eyeliner in Pros and Bronze, and this one has such a pretty goldish/brown shade. I personally like wearing it on my lower lash line, paired with a bronze smokey eye, and I think it looks beautiful once applied. It’s also really easy to apply and glides right on!
Hope you enjoyed today’s product haul and review! Let me know in the comments which product is your fave!
Thanks for stopping by-Cara

I love how Wet N Wild has such affordable products and they are truly comparable to the top pricey brands. I am in love with that lipstick and that eyeshadow pallette looks like a world of endless possibilities!
Kindly Unspoken says
Me too, Trish! 🙂

Kindly Unspoken says
I agree, Chelsea! You could create a lot of pretty looks with it 🙂

I just bought that same eyeshadow pallette! I love all of those colors so much!!
Kindly Unspoken says
So glad to hear that! Yay 🙂
Chelsie Carr says
I have been DYING to get my hands on the new Wet n Wild brushes! They have been out of stock for FOREVER! But I really love this brand; very good quality for a steal of a deal! I love their new gel nail polish!
Kindly Unspoken says
I have too, Chelsie- but no luck so far finding any in my stores either. 🙁 I’ll have to give their new nail polishes a try sometime!
Kate @ Green Fashionista says
That eyeshadow palette is gorgeous! I’m all about lower priced options that are great quality 😀
Green Fashionista
Kindly Unspoken says
It has some great, versatile shades! I’m the same way 🙂
LIndsay says
These all look great! I have a Wet n Wild blush/bronzer I’ve used since high school. My makeup bag is never without it! Such a good brand for so cheap!
Kindly Unspoken says
I agree! I think a lot of people relate it to what they wore in high school so they discredit it as being a good brand, but it really is awesome and one of my go-to drugstore brands! 🙂
Stephanie says
I just love wet not wild. One of my fave lipsticks is by them! That is until it became art….
Kindly Unspoken says
Me too, Steph! Haha.. did your son think it was a crayon? 😉
Sarah @ Foxy's Domestic Side says
You know for some reason I equate wet and wild with my childhood and never really go to it when looking for products, but I might have to go check them out! Thanks!
Kindly Unspoken says
I know what you mean, Sarah. Wet n’ Wild has actually really stepped up their game in recent years, though. 🙂
Neely says
Ive been super impressed with wet n wild products lately!
Kindly Unspoken says
Me too, Neely!
Erin says
I love reading posts like this one – it reminded me of a brand I haven’t tried in forever. I really love that Au Natural palette! It’s perfect for everyday wear.
Kindly Unspoken says
Thanks, Erin! I can see it being a great everyday palette!
Mistle says
That palette looks so pigmented! The shades look really pretty as well. I recently picked up some of their matte lip colors and i am excited to try them. They don’t seem like a typical matte formula as far as being really dry.
Kindly Unspoken says
Mistle, you are right! Their matte shades are really pretty but don’t dry out the lips like some matte formulas. And the palette does have really pretty pigmentation!
Andrea says
So pretty and I adore the pricing! WNW lip liner is my go to. Lasts all day!! Fun stuff lady!! Hope you’ve had a beautiful day!!
Kindly Unspoken says
I keep hearing their lip liners work really well, but they are almost always sold out of all the colors. (I guess cause people love them!)-haha Hope you have a great day 🙂
Nadine says
I haven’t tried their shadows or highlighters. I really like the highlighters so maybe I will grab one next time I am out. You cant beat their prices.
Kindly Unspoken says
I think their eyeshadows are very similar to that of elf, so all in all great products! & I agree you can’t be a the price!
jessica says
You always find the best stuff!!! Gahh I haven’t tried that brand in years 🙂
xo, Jessica || The Petite Diaries
Kindly Unspoken says
Give their lip products a try, Jessica. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised 🙂
Ada says
Oh Kara, I haven’t purchased anything Wet N’ Wild in years but you have me convinced. I want to try those highlighting powders and also that eye makeup palette has some very pretty shades. Thanks for a great review and Happy Hump Day!

Lily says
Wet’N Wild has been coming out with so many great products! I am loving their contour duo in Dulce De Leche, SO good!
I have 2 of the velvet lip crayons, Charred Cherry is a MUST! It’s a deeper berry, I think you might like. Thanks for sharing swatches!
xo, Lily

I use the contour duo almost daily, it’s awesome! And Charred Cherry sounds amazing, I love deep berry shades, so thank-you for that recommendation 🙂
Jennifer says
I love how the first one has the eye shadow illustrations on the back. I feel like I would really benefit from that! Nice reviews.
Kindly Unspoken says
Thanks, girl!
Leslie says
I love the shade of that lipstick and eyeliner! Hoping I can find these at a drugstore near me!
Kindly Unspoken says
I thought the lipstick shades were such perfect colors for spring! Hope you can find them 🙂
Darcy says
Those shades look really pretty!! I haven’t tried Wet and Wild products in forever!

Kindly Unspoken says
You should try some of their products, Darcy. I feel like they’ve really came a long way over the past 5 years in terms of quality. 🙂
Steff says
OMG that bronze eyeliner and lie-lack lip crayon are calling my name effective immediately for my weekend trip to miami tomorrow! How pretty! I totally agree that WnW has become an amazing drugstore brand. I’ve seen great things about that Au Naturale palette and heard those geometric powders were very similar to the high end $45 Hourglass powders. After seeing your swatches, I have to agree they look extremely similar to the finish of my Hourglass Luminous Light powder. Great post 🙂
Kindly Unspoken says
That’s awesome, Steff! To compare to such a high end product, that’s amazing, and I’m glad to hear that! Thank-you! 🙂
Tif @ Bright on a Budget says
OOOO I love a good review with swatches! I really want to try those velvet matte lip pencils out now.

They’re pretty, right?! I had to contain myself and not buy all the colors but they are such pretty shades!
Rebecca Jo says
WNW has lasted through the years – it was the only lipstick I wore as a teenager… that was a LONGGGGGGGGGGG time ago 🙂
Kindly Unspoken says
Haha, they’ve really improved I think over the years!
Sarah @ Bows and Clothes says
I love all of these! I would so wear the highlighting palletes! The eyeliner is such a neat color!

My sister in law swears by wet n wild, but I never really tried them. Thanks to this, I’m going to check them out!
Kindly Unspoken says
I love them! They are definitely in my top three of favorite drugstore brands! 🙂
Lindsay says
Oh, also, I want to see that Lie-Lack color on you!!!!!
Kindly Unspoken says
Thanks! I’ll share that soon 🙂
Lindsay says
I am so happy about this post!! I love Wet and Wild but usually just stick to eyeliner and some lipsticks. That highlighter looks so pretty – I’ve never used a highlighter before, so I think this will be my first. I also love that lipstick color – I have such a hard time choosing colors, so thanks for doing the work for me! Pinning for future use : )
Kindly Unspoken says
The highlighter is really pretty Lindsay! Glad you enjoyed the post! 🙂
