{ Review + Swatches } Wet n Wild 'Comfort Zone' Palette w/ a FOTN!

I recently purchased one of Wet n Wild's Color Icon palettes in 'Comfort Zone' after ummm-ing and aah-ing for the longest time! This eyeshadow palette comes with a collection of 8 pigmented and shimmery colours. I absolutely adore the selection of shades which are totally up my alley- a mix of neutrals and olive tones. A great palette for winter/fall although I would wear these colours all year round.


Like I said previously, all the eyeshadows have a shimmery finish with two of the shades also adorned with microglitters. This is my first Wet n Wild eyeshadow palette and  honestly, I was really amazed by the pigmentation and colour pay-off. All the eyeshadows apply really easily and have a silky texture although some of the darker eyeshadows tend to be a bit more chalky- although a negative that I can put up with. I especially love the uniqueness of the 'Definer' shade in the second column of the palette- a reddish brown with a slight green iridescence. Defintely something I don't have in my eyeshadow collection! Although that colour is great swatched, the greenish iridescence seemed to get a little lost once applied on the lids :(


Pros: 
  • Inexpensive- purchased mine for around $8 AUD
  • Pigmented and silky to apply
  • Great all-in-one palette to create day and night looks from
  • Very little fall-out
  • Gorgeous shimmery finishes
  • Glittered eyeshadows do not cause a major mess or fall-out
  • Amazing colour selection

Cons:
  • Cheap packaging and double-ended brush
  • Not easily accessible in Australia
  • Some of the darker shades are a little chalky

A recent FOTN using only the eyeshadows from this palette on my lids! **No primer used**. Simple and earth-toned colours on the lids plus a pop of colour on my lips.


Making silly faces.
