Into The Blush Part 2: Wet n Wild Color Icon Blushes

Wrote by 7 Comments

Want to know the best blush in the drugstore arena? Well, you are staring at it now. No exaggeration needed, these budget friendly blushes are the best thing in the beauty market. I first tried this blushin 2010. I bought the shade berry shimmer and it was an instant hit in my makeup kit. I knew I had to get all four shades. I had my best friend bought these goodies in Canada for 4$ each. 1 blush only costs 160 pesos (super cheap noh?). Online stores sell these blushes at a much lower price compared to its price in the local counters. These blushes are intensely pigmented and any of my brushes (whether animal hair or synthetic) easily picks up the product. Due to its intense color pay off, a little goes a long way and you have to tap off the brush to prevent from depositing too much products on your cheek. These blushes have awesome staying power. It can lasts almost a whole day on me without retouching (like 5-6 hrs).  No powder blush ever stayed that much long on my cheeks except MAC blushes.

What to love about these blushes:
Great pigmentation/awesome color pay off
The colors you see on the pan translate quite accurately when applied on the cheeks.
Superb Staying power
Very affordable
Smooth and blendable

What to dislike about these blushes:
The crappy brush that comes with it.
The packaging is not durable. It can easily break. Also, the blush itself easily gets powdered or pulverized when dropped.
Due to its high pigmentation, controlling the amount of the blush can be a bit tricky.

Here are the close up photos of blushes:
Mellow wine is warm reddish coral blush that has a wonderful matte finish.
Berry Shimmer is a Nars Taos knock off. Its beautiful deep berry color with fine rich gold shimmers
 ( does not look chunky and gritty at all).
Heather Silk is my current fave. This is a matte medium pink blush. The perfect pick me up shade whether for office or a night out! I love how it makes me look blooming and glowing. Mestiza lang ang peg!
Pearlescent pink is a shimmery peachy pink shade. Its gold flecks makes it a so called dupe for Nars Orgasm but I do not think its quite close. It has a sheerer color pay off compared to the other blushes.

Swatches of the Wet n Wild Blushes

I hate the fact that they only have four shades. I am hoping Wet n Wild will release more shades in the future. How about plummy shades or peachy ones?

Godbless to all!

    I know they're so pigmented and beautiful, but sadly I have difficulties of getting them here in my country. They're so fragile to be air-shipped, but no local stores around selling wet n wild. Maybe I should wait a little longer...

    nice review!

    I'm not a blush person but since Wet N Wild is pretty affordable, I would like to start experimenting on it. Thanks for the review!
