Yes! At last, we have LA based budget brand Wet N Wild available to us in the UK. I’ve long been jealous of Ireland for having this brand for a long time now while it’s been impossible to get this side of the ocean. I’ve chosen this particular palette to talk about (I have other things that I’ll get to over time) because it’s basically a single eye look and it feels so fresh in the face of the overload of multiple pan palettes.
I’m also showing the Skinny Mascara – I love a skinny brush and it’s a minimal mascara (maybe a good starter mascara for anyone just beginning to experiment with make-up or at the other end of the spectrum if you’ve sort of given up on mascara because you can’t get a natural lash look). Anyway, back to the palette. It’s £2.95 – yes, really. The best possible stocking filler for make-up fans. There are six options (HERE).
As you can see in this horribly skin-bumpy swatch (so cold in my kitchen!) there is nothing wrong with the pigment level. All the colours swatched really well – smoothly, with little drop and no inconsistency so I have no complaints whatsoever about this.

You also get instructions for use. You can see from the packaging that the whole range is cruelty free but it is made in China. What that means is that it’s not sold in China – China is at liberty to manufacture products that don’t require mandatory testing, but not to sell products without it being tested. I’m super impressed with this palette and my jaw dropped at the price! The mascara, by the way, is £4.50.

I was in my local large branch of Boots in Glasgow the other day and literally squealed when I saw they had a stand of Wet n Wild Alongside there was also a stand of Elf and Winky & Lux…great to see some different and affordable things! Must get one of these palettes!
Interesting – at Boots these are 3.99, so thanks for linking to BeautyBay. I might do a little shop;-)
I love a skinny mascara brush. This obsession with the-fatter-the-better brushes just doesn’t click with me. With my hooded and sensitive eyes a fat mascara brush = smudged watery eyes for the rest of the day.
And I’m also pleased to see Wet ‘n’ Wild on the shelves of Boots. I’m hoping we’ll be getting the nail polish too.
I have one of the Color Icon palettes from Wet n’ Wild and it’s a gem for the price! Their highlighters are also amazing if you love that wet shimmer look.
