wet n wild Holiday Limited Edition



Wet n Wild has become one of, if not my favorite drugstore brand. The golden theme with this collection is stunning. I knew I had to pick up some of it!

 Highlighter $3.99
The Wet n wild megaglo Highlighting Gold Bar is honestly breathtaking. Your highlight will be poppin' with this highlight. It honestly performs like a high-end highlighter. I personally really enjoy gold or warm highlight. If you can still get your hands on this I would HIGHLY recommend. (I had a feeling this was going to be a good one, so I bought a back up haha.)


 Loose pigment $2.99
Shades left to right: 'Dom & Cherry On Top' 'Ride On My Copper' 'Kung Fu Lightning' 'Heart Of Rose Gold' 
I bought all 4 of the loose pigments. Besides the lightest shade Kung Fu Lightning all the shades are very similar. And that's coming from a girl who owns more nude lipsticks than the number of girls a player gets in a month. I can justify almost any makeup purchase and I will say if you buy 1 you don't need the other 2 similar shades. 
These are a loose eyeshadow, not a pigment. There is not enough pigmentation in them to be a pigment. These are nice but I wouldn't say run out and grab them. Since they only have the pigment of a normal pressed shadow I would prefer to use a pressed shadow. Just because I find them more practical and easier to apply. But the packaging is very nice and well thought out. If you are going to have a product in a loose form a shiftier is always appreciated. 


Lashes $2.99
I bought the eyelashes in the style 'Disco Baller Status.'  I haven't used the eyelashes yet, clearly but I thought they would be nice for an extra look. There are little gold crystals on the outer lashes. They look pretty but you can tell they aren't super well made and aren't a natural-looking lash by any means.

Overall I think wet n wild did a great job with this collection, there were also some nail polishes and some lipglosses that I passed out on. I personally don't want to own any more lipglosses with glitter in my collection just because I use them so rarely. But they had super cute packaging and the color selection looked really nice. The take away from this should be that the Gold Bar Highlight is 10/10.

Tattoo Junkee Liquid Lipstick + Glitter Kit


 It is a liquid lipstick and a glitter for $7. I picked mine up at Walgreens but you can also buy them here:




I got them in shades: 'Skinny Dip,' 'Bubble Gum,' & 'Pucker Up.'


 Skinny Dip is a (I hate using this reference but people get it) Kylie Jenner shade, neutral brown shade and comes with a copper glitter. The second color is a wearable light pink that comes with a iridescent silver lilac glitter. The last is a true red lipstick with red glitter.

 They can be worn alone as liquid lipsticks or layered together to create that glitter lip.
Let me just say that I love these.  
 This product claims to be long-lasting, smudge-proof, and to dry matte. This does all three beautifully. This product seriously lasts all day. It is very drying on the lips, I won't lie.  It has a true liquid lipstick formula.


To create the glitter lip you apply the liquid lipstick then press the glitter on top of it before the liquid lip dries. I find that it is easier to not do the whole lips at once. I will do the whole top lip before moving on to the second. I do want to say that glitter lip is not comfortable on the lips, you feel it on your lips the whole time you are wearing it. Also, I would not recommend eating with the glitter on your lips, I find you will end up eating glitter. Which is not as glamorous as it may sound. More often than not I'm just going to opt to wear the matte lipstick alone. The glitter lip can be fun just not that wearable for me. But I have used the glitter as eye shadow and I want to attempt the glitter brow trend with these suckers. I find it to be a good solid glitter that can be used for anything you could any glitter for. 




Glitter and a liquid lipstick, what more could a girl ask for?!

You get the point, this product is worth the $7.
