Wet 'n' Wild ColorIcon HOLIDAY 2010 Palettes - THOUGHTS and SWATCHES...
Wet 'n' Wild has debuted 4 new ColorIcon Palettes for their Holiday 2010 Collection. Each of the palettes come with 6 limited edition eyeshadow shades and a bonus eye pencil.
These palettes were $4.49 at Harmons where I bought mine but I think they retail for $4.99. Don't forget that there are numerous sales at drugstores at any given time so you may be able to get these cheaper in a Buy One Get One Half Off Sale.
Update from the lovely favorisntfair: These are available at Walgreens and they are even having a 50% off sale!
The palettes are similar to the basic Wet 'n' Wild ColorIcon Palettes and come with 6 eyeshadows. The difference in the holiday palettes is that all the shades are either shimmery or glitter packed versus shimmers and mattes as in the originals.
The eyeshadows are all highly pigmented and very true to the color seen in the palette. There are 4 palettes in all: Golden Goddess - golds, bronze and orange tones, Snow Sprite - silvers, greens and blue, Plum Fairy - pinks, purples and plums, Night Elf- silvers, black and red.
These are great palettes are the budget conscious and savvy shopper. These are also best suited for those of us who love shimmer and glitter. These are not subtle satin shades...they are full on shimmery shades for the holiday season. Happy shopping!
Golden Goddess - golds, bronze and orange tones
Snow Sprite - silvers, greens and blues
Plum Fairy - pinks, purples and plums
Night Elf- silvers, black and red
Those palette look really nice. I'm going to have to search those out Friday. Thanks for the heads up.

These look great, I love the first two. I've never seen the W&W palettes in Canada though :(
ReplyDeleteGolden Goddess looks like MAC Natural Flare MES.
ReplyDeleteNight Elf ....reminds me of MAC Danger Zone MES.
If you have these, would it be possible plz for you to compare?
Also, which is your fave?
Thanks so much for sharing Tina!
Thanks for the heads up! Thanks to favorisntfair for the Walgreen's sale info. I am looking forward to seeing your tutorials of the palettes; especially the Night Elf!
ReplyDeleteHey Tina! Thanks for the post. Will u please so a look from the pallets and at least a tutorial? ~ Carnita
ReplyDeleteNo prob Chanel girl. Let me know how it goes. Apparently they r scarce!
ReplyDeleteI keep hearing that Danielle. It's funny because they weren't with the regular Wet 'n' Wild line...it was a separate display. I almost missed them too.
U r welcome AnNeTtEe. They should be available at most drugstores now. Check Harmons and Walgreens. Look for a separate display because it may not be with the regular line.
Thx for the heads up favorisntfair. I added the Walgreens info to he post...hope u don't mind :)
I know right Rachel! They really stepped up these eyeshadows big time. Glad I discovered them again.
These palettes r fierce rmcandlelight. The red shadow was a surprise since reds r so hard to come by.
ReplyDeleteU r welcome Stavroula. No WnW where u r? :(
Awwww thx so much Artemi. It sux so much that we can't have the same thing all over the world! Dammit! Makeup should be universal!
Silhouette everyone loves that red palette. I think this one is the most sought after.
I agree Christine. These palettes r great.
Oh no Saadeh! They don't have them over there? That blows!
No prob Sha. I think Golden Goddess is pretty close to Natural Flare indeed. I don't have teh Danger Zone MES but I think this red is more of a cherry red with gold sparkles whilre Danger Zone has more of a richer red but they r very close if I remember from swatching it in store.
ReplyDeleteI really like Snow Sprite because of the dark green and blue silver. I like Golden Goddess because of the pretty orange golds. So pretty!
No prob KJ2007. I'll see what looks I can come up with :)
Hey Carnita! I'll be playing with these a bit so look out.
Nope :( WnW is not available in Greece! :( I arranged a CP with a lovely blogger from the USA though and WnW is currently 50% off, so woohooooo!!! :D

Oh no Stavroula! I'm glad u could get a CP doen tho! I think these palettes r worth it!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely not! Anyway I can help I shall...its my beauty duty :)
