Review: Wet'n'Wild Eyeshadow Trio - 384B On Cloud Nine

My amazing friend Paige sent me a lot of beauty products at the beginning of the year (and during!) but the Wet'n'Wild trios were in the winter package. They are available at drugstores in the US/Canada? and retail at $2.99. I will be reviewing them all individually in the near future.



This is Wet'n'Wild's eyeshadow trio in 384B On Cloud Nine, containing a blue/brown combination of shades.This trio could be used to create many different looks alongside other eyeshadows or palettes and a few different looks by itself. I really like this trio because of the fantastic quality of the eyeshadows.


- The Browbone Shade is a light sky blue frost/shimmer
- The Crease Shade is a deep brown with shimmer
- The Eyelid Shade is darker sky blue frost/shimmer

All shades are highly pigmented and I think even more so than some of the other Wet'n'Wild eyeshadow trios. The shades are easy to work with and blend, I tried 2 different looks with this trio, the browbone shade in the inner third of the eye, the eyelid shade on the rest of the eyelid and the crease shade in the crease. The other was with the eyelid shade and the crease shade in the outer-"v". They both looked nice and wore without primer for 4 hours without creasing, I would recommend a primer with all Wet'n'Wild eyeshadows if you'd like a more long-wearing look.


The packaging is the same as the other trios, a plastic flip-top, this is easy to use and functional, the mandatory sponge applicator and the small brush are also included. The texture of the eyeshadows is very soft and a pleasure to apply with an equally soft brush, I also used my fingers to apply and the eyeshadows blended well and applied nicely. I wouldn't describe this trio as an absolute must-have as it may not be so workable for an everyday look or even a work-appropriate look, however the quality of these eyeshadows is amazing, and for a more adventurous look I'd definitely recommend it!
