Wet n Wild Natural Blend Lip Shimmer Review

By The Brown Girl | Wednesday, December 29, 2010 7 comments

I hate forgetting to throw a lip balm in my purse when I go out in the cold, but thats just what I didn't do the other day. So I stopped at my nearby Rite Aid to grab something quick, cheap and hopefully moisturizing. The Wet n Wild Natural Blend lip shimmer looked like just the thing I needed. I paid for my purchase and before even leaving the store, popped the balm open and applied it to my lips without using a mirror thinking it'd bring just a touch of plum color to my lips.

Wrong! This little thing is super pigmented and the color looks nothing like the tube. As you can see I walked around for half the day with bright apple red lips, lol. I guess its just the universe's way of forcing me to step outside my comfort zone.

I do really like the formula of these, the consistency is good, not super moisturizing, but good enough to keep my lips from feeling dry, and I like the shiny finish. And now that I know how these apply I may go and get a few more colors. For $1.99 they're not half bad.
