Hello all! Hope you all are having a terrific Tuesday.
It's been a while since I've last posted a go-to beauty product or brand so here it is today. I wanted to share with ya'll a couple of affordable, drugstore blushes that I absolutely love from the moon and back. They are Wet N Wild Color Icon Blushers; four shades are currently in the line... Although I wish there were more.
Wet N Wild is fairly easy to track down, here in Arizona, I am able to find them at Walgreens, K-Mart, Wal-Mart and some Ulta. In my opinion, Wet N Wild is one of the most affordable drugstore brand with great quality of products. They have a variety of beauty products from face to eyes to lips. I can't say I'm a fan of all their products because there are hits and misses. I will say that I am a huge fan of their eyeshadows, some of their lip products and nail polishes. Besides those, I am also a fan of their blush and bronzer.
Wet N Wild Color Icon Blushers are priced for $1.99 each, plus tax, here in Arizona. And like I mentioned earlier, there are four shades to choose from, from a pearly pink to a shimmer berry. I, being a blush enthusiast that I am, own all four. Of the four, I use three of 'em the most. Out of the three, one of them has been a constant go-to blush. Whenever I don't know what blush to reach for, it'll either be this or ELF Studio Blush in Pink Passion.
If I were to give you only one reason why I love these blushes so much, I'd have to say it's the formula. Wet N Wild has got it down! The blush is just so creamy when rubbed between my fingers, it glides on like butter and blends like a dream. A teeny, tiny bit goes a long, long way. Not to mention the lasting power. Other blushes tend to fade as the day go on, not these babies. Nuh uh! They cling on, with the same intensity from beginning to end. I've been complimented a few times and asked what blush I wore, they were genuinely surprised when I said Wet N Wild.
PEARLESCENT PINK
The name pretty much says it all. This is a pearly light pink shade. It has bits of glitter in it so whenever I wear this, I gotta be extra careful where I place it or else I'll look like a
HEATHER SILK
My favorite shade out of the four; it absolutely compliments my skin tone well, bringing out natural blushed cheeks. The pink is somewhat intimidating and what do you know, it shows up with the exact same intensity on the skin as it is in the pan. Unlike Pearlescent Pink, Heather Silk is a matte blush, with no specks of glitter or shimmer whatsoever. Just a teeny, weeny, tiny dab of the brush will be more than enough for color, for my skin tone at least. When blended out, it's just the most beautiful blush color ever. This is an everyday type blush for me, can be paired with any eye or lip look.
MELLOW WINE
Despite the name, Mellow Wine, this shade isn't really "wine" to me. I think of it more of a dark corally-orange. This blush has very minimal shimmer in the pan and will not even be visible once applied to the skin. I don't wear this shade as often, but when I do, I usually pair it with a neutral eye and/or nude or coral lips. Like Heather Silk, a tiny dab of the brush will be all you need. Very pigmented this blush is.
BERRY SHIMMER
Of the four, I use this one the least. I probably used this no more than 10 times ever since I purchased it. I don't think I've ever worn this shade in the Spring/Summer months at all. Since it is a berry-wine color, I think it's more appropriate for the Fall/Winter months. Like Pearlescent Pink, this blush is packed with glitter and very shimmery. When worn in the Winter, it instantly gives the face a nice glow, contrast to the dull Winter.
Hope you all enjoyed this post. If you found this helpful, head on over and check out my post on Jordana Blushes.
