Wet N' Wild 8 Pan Palette Collection & Dupes

Wet N' Wild was never a brand that I ever reached for at the drugstore. But after receiving one of these pans as a gift I fell in love with this brand. For a drugstore brand Wet N' Wild has an amazing range of shadows and lipsticks!! The pigmentation in these shadows is comparable with high end brands, and the price for the palettes is unbelievable at only $4.99 for an 8 pan eyeshadow palette. 

Today I will be swatching and listing dupes held in the Wet N' Wild 8 pan palettes. 

Comfort Zone Palette
I like to call this the forrest palette. The colors in this palette are very nature inspired. There are no mattes in this palette, they are all shimmer which is a con for me. They are very very pigmented they are also very creamy and soft which could be a pro or con.
(I had horrible luck with this my palette fell right before I began snapping pictures, and my finger slipped as I tried to open it)

Blue Had Me At Hello 
This has to be my favourite palette of the three! Although blue isn't my go to color for my eyes whenever I do use it I reach for this palette. Unlike the other palettes there is not hit or misses only hits!! Every color has amazing pigmentation. There's an amazing silver, teal, dark blue and black in this palette!



colors go from bottom to top
Browbone: shimmery frosted white
Eyelid: shimmery white (dupe for Sugarpill's Tiara pigment
Crease: Dark blackened blue with small blue specks
Definer: True matte black (dupe for MAC'S carbon & Sugarpill's Bulletproof pressed shadow)


colors go from bottom to top
Browbone: Frosted light blue
Eyelid: shimmery teal (dupe for MAC Shimmermoss eyeshadow)
Crease: Metallic true royal blue (Dupe for MAC's Deep Truth eyeshadow)
Definer: Matte black with silver glitter specks (Dupe for MAC's Black Tide eyeshadow)

Petal Pusher 
Petal Pusher is actually sadly my least favourite of the three. Like Comfort Zone it contains all shimmery colors, but unlike Comfort Zone I found all of these shadows chalky and hard to work with. This is the pink and purple palette. The left browbone shadows is an amazing color, almost like Sugarpills Lumi pigment but in pink! The darker shadows are great in this palette but for me not good enough to compensate for the other shadows. 


colors go from bottom to top
 Browbone: light frosted pink 
Eyelid: light frosted baby pink 
Crease: light shimmery lilac
Definer: light shimmery purple with small flecks of glitter

colors go from bottom to top

Browbone: light frosted pink with pink duo chrome 
Eyelid: Light pink toned mauve with slight shimmer (dupe for MAC's Trax eyeshadow)
Browbone: darkened blackened plum with maroon shimmer (Dupe for MAC's Beauty Marked eyeshadow)
Definer: Matte black with silver glitter (Dupe for MAC's Black Tide eyeshadow)


Overall these palettes are a great deal. Eight shadows for only $5.00!! What palette I consider my favorite or least favorite is my own opinion and may not be what you think. These are my favorite drugstore shadows  that I own!! I also have all four 6 pan palettes, but I don't know whether to review them or not considering that they are discontinued. 

I hope you guys enjoyed this. Let me know if you'd like more posts like this!
