This was a quick taupe and gray look I did with some false lashes added to make it a bit more dramatic.

I made a quick trip to Rite Aid and picked up 4 of the new Wet n Wild eyeshadow trios, 3 of Natural Blend Lip shimmers and a NYC Bronzer duo.

The trios are hit and miss as far as quality. But at $1.99 each I'm not really complaining, lol. My least favorite is I Dream of Greenie, the greens looked stunning in the packaging, but the formula is very chalky/powdery. My fav of the bunch is Silent Treatment, which I've used in a few looks already. The taupy/mauve color in it is great for brown skin since its got great pigmentation and doesn't look ashy at all.

 The NYC Bronze Mist is also a hit for me. For starters the colors actually show up on brown skin and the forumula doesn't have a bunch of chunky glitter like other bronzers do. The highlighter side looks so natural and just seems to brighten up the areas I apply it to without it being obvious I have a highlighter on.

I loved this bronzer so much I went to Target and got the other 2 in the series, Bronze Gold and Terracotta Tan. I haven't taken pics of them yet, but I'll be adding those swatches soon.

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.
