Review : Wet N Wild Coloricon Palette in Vanity

Last week I reviewed a wet n wild coloricon palette in greed and now I'm going to do a review on the vanity palette. I have been after this palette for so long! It's been doing a great job at eluding my clutches but I eventually caught up with it and snagged it from an online auction for only P225! To think that this usually retails for P299-P399 at some online shops. Lucky me!

I know I have so many neutral palettes already but when I saw this, I just knew I needed this badly. I've read so many great reviews regarding it and I wanted to try it out for myself. Plus you can never really go wrong with a great neutral palette!







What I Like :
Affordably priced!
Compact & travel friendly, due to the size of the palette it would be easy to take around with you for touch ups!
Great pigmentation and lasting power.
Eyeshadows aren't powdery or chalky.
Shimmer eyeshadows don't have that "gritty" feeling when being applied onto the lids.
No funky smell unlike some eyeshadow palettes that smell "flowery"...
Non irritating.

What I Don't Like :
Not always locally available.
Cheap plastic-like packaging.
Pretty useless free applicators.
No mirror.

Overall : 
Overall I'd give this a 4/5 stars. Though it lacks a mirror and comes with not so friendly applicators, this neutral palette is still definitely "the bomb"! I've been using this on myself and on clients on more than one occasion and results are always beautiful! On myself, the eyeshadows really look pretty and I always get a lot of compliments on my eye makeup. This is definitely worth the hassles I went through to purchase it. 

Swatch time!

Questions for my readers:
Did you find this review helpful?
Have you tried any of the wet n wild coloricon palettes?
Would you purchase this palette for yourself?

  2. I love the Wet N' Wild palettes! They stay on a long time even without the use of primer (not unless you get really sweaty of course), and even with my semi-oily lids, they seem to last almost the whole day.
