Wet n Wild Brights

Wet n Wild eyeshadow palettes are known for how pigmented they are which is rare for a drugstore product. So when I was at Walgreens and saw them on display, the colors caught my eye. 
This palette is Boardwalk Boozing. This was the brighter of the two palettes. I have an Inglot palette with bright colors but I thought, I have nothing to lose because it is so affordable.
These are the swatches. Keep in mind that I'm tan (think nc44) so my lighter skins colors, it would be brighter.

Texture wise, the matte color are kind of chalky but that does not compromise the high pigmentation that they're known for. There are some metallic and those feel buttery, smooth. 
When using these palettes, you need to be careful, their is fall out - A LOT.  To prevent that, you can use a shadow shield or napkin, or you can put on your foundation last. Don't forget to tap your brush.
Here is the other palette 

Get wet n wild with these palettes! Play and have fun!

Haul: Wet n Wild and Revlon

I went into our local Walgreens to get my oatmeal but I think subconsciously to browse makeup.  Boy was it a great day to do that because I returned home with these:

I'm excited to play and review for all beauties out there!

Loreal Infallible Foundation



 
I live in Hawai'i,  so our Walmarts and drugstores are not stocked with the new products as opposed to the US mainland.  So when I went to my local CVS, I gravitated towards this products. 
I've heard so many good reviews about this foundation.  Loreal makes some of the best drugstore foundations, some comparable to that of high-end foundations.  

What I love about this foundation is how matte and velvety it looks and feels. If I had to compare this to high end foundation, I'd say MAC prolongwear.  Once you set it, it will not go anywhere.  This is so critical to me because of the humidity here (and because I have very oily skin).  If you want more of a dewy, sheet look, you can always dilute it with moisturizer, highlight, and boom - dewy skin.

The price is affordable running around $10-$12 depending on where you buy it from. 

Would I recommend this foundation? Yes, for every skin type.
