wet'n'wild flora and fauna sets

I purchased these LE sets several months ago, so sadly they're no longer available.  However, most of the products within the sets are available separately.  I hope these swatches will help!






 Out of the flora collection, the lip gloss and the blush are available in the permanent line of products.

I hope this post was helpful (even though some of the products are no longer available.)  Thanks for reading!

wet'n'wild goldigger eye shadow single

This eyeshadow came in a little set- one eyeshadow, one eyeliner.  Two for the price of one!  I've seen these sets around before, so once I saw a color I liked, I purchased.  Here's some pics and my impressions:

The eyeliner is quite pigmented.  It applies smoothly without tugging.  It wears about as well as any w'n'w eyeliner- quite well, with a bit of smudging by the end of the day.






The eyeshadow is quite powdery.  I swatched it the same as I would any eyeshadow, and this is the amount of powder that came up.  


Applied directly to my arm, it's still quite powdery


 But when blended, it looks quite nice!


This eyeshadow is pigmented enough to show up well on the eyes.  It's not as bright a gold as I like, but that's nothing against the product itself.  It is quite powdery, so you'd have to be careful about fall out.  For only $2, I'd say it's worth a try.  (My other favorites from this line include Nutty and Penny, a warm taupe and a copper shade)  Thanks for reading!


Facts of the Day #30

1.  I'm back!  Uh finally... I was away for two weeks (the beach and New Orleans).  So I'm back and ready to rumble.  I'm in negotiations with my mother in regards to bringing my computer with me to Michigan, so we'll see how that goes.
2. Yesterday was a rather successful day! I:
     a. Cleaned my room

     b. Painted my toenails
sorry my toes are weird but I liked the polish so...

    c. Worked out

     d. Drew a couple sketchy drawings (I'm a little out of practice.  Hmmm....)
on the left is a badly drawn giraffe, and on the right
is an amusing/unflattering pic of one of my friends

     e. I edited two videos

     f. And I went to bed at a more reasonable time than usual!

3.  I'm eating this nommy vanilla yogurt for breakfast:

The only place I can find it is at Sam's Club.  Sad.

4. I'm obsessed with the Josh Garrels channel on Pandora.  For some reason I was under the impression that Pandora just plays crappy music...LIES.  It's fantastic.  And the Josh Garrels channel is sooo chill.  I listened to it for several hours yesterday and did not tire of it.  (I never listen to music that long...)



5. I figured something out!  My laptop always gets overheated on my bed because the little feet on the bottom of my case just sink in. (I knew that already, this next part is what I discovered)  So...when I was cleaning my room I found a square of cardboard and put it under my laptop.  Voila!  I now have a super light weight surface to keep my laptop on.  It works as a lap desk or just a flat surface for my laptop to sit on instead of my bed.

6.  That's about it!  I have plans today to film several videos, as well as practice some more drawing...
