Drugstore Makeup: Soft Pink Eyes & Lips

     Hello there!  Well, this is definitely a Wet 'n' Wild kick I've been on lately, especially here on my blog. Wet 'n' Wild released their well-rounded Spring 2015 Silver Lake Limited Edition Color Collection a couple months ago, which features quite a hefty collection of brand new 6-pan eyeshadow palettes (with the most punchy, vibrant and aesthetically pleasing color schemes, I might add), and a few blush/bronzer/highlight trio disks.

     I just recently noticed the collection beginning to pop up in my local drugstores, and only picked up a couple of things from it, which I'll get to in a future post. There were a couple other items I was wanting to check out, but I simply just ended up not going there, because.....priorities, honey :D. Also, let me just say, it's not an easy feat for me to be able to actually pull off very cool toned pinks like the ones used in this look. There's a dash of sparkle on the lids, and I'm very happy to say that it's a 'grown-up' sparkle effect that these Wet 'n' Wild shadows offer, not juvenile or too 'kiddy'  in the slightest. :)

The 6-pan palette from the collection that was used in this look is a beautiful  assortment of pink hues called Thrift Store Chic (pictured below).

Product Breakdown

 

Eyes

1) Primer: Too Faced Shadow Insurance

2) e.l.f. Glitter Glue applied directly over the base mobile lid shadow to prep for the sparkle top coat I added

3) Wet 'n' Wild Color Icon 6-pan Eyeshadow Palette in 'Thrift Store Chic' (limited edition from the Spring 2015 Silver Lake Collection) (shades used: topmost highlight shade on left side was packed onto the mobile lid as the base shadow, kept under the crease, and also applied to the inner corners, then the darker mauve-toned purple shade on the bottom right side was blended into the crease and onto the outer 'v' and blended in, and also applied with a smudge brush on the lower lashline, then Glitter Glue was patted onto the mobile lid, followed by the topmost shade on the right, which is a lighter baby pink sparkle shadow top coat, and this shade was patted onto the mobile lid with my ring finger).
