Let’s kick
things off with Dollhouse Pink, a bright blue-based pink. I love me some hot
pink lipstick! Dollhouse Pink’s texture is a lot like MAC’s satin lipsticks.
Next up is
24 Carrot Gold, an orange-based coral. This color looks so rich and juicy. I
love it!
Last but not
least is Salsa Lessons, an orange-based red. This is supposedly very similar to
MAC Scarlet Ibis from the Iris Apfel Collection, albeit with a glossier finish.
Unlike the Mega Last lipsticks, the MegaShield line has SPF 15. Salsa Lessons
was the smoothest and most moisturizing of the three.
The
packaging on these isn’t going to win any beauty contests. It’s functional but
nothing special to look at—just a black plastic tube. However, the no frills
packaging is likely part of the reason Wet N Wild is able to sell these at such
a low price.
Although the packaging isn't exactly expensive-looking, thankfully the lipsticks themselves do not perform like cheap products. In fact, they
absolutely blew me away. They’re creamy, pigmented and non-drying. These are
extremely comparable to many of the high-end lipsticks I own. They deliver good wear
and even leave behind a bit of a stain afterwards.
I’m
incredibly impressed by all three of these. At $1.99 for the Mega Last lipsticks and $2.99
for MegaShield, these are some excellent, extremely affordable lipsticks. They
make fabulous guilt-free treats to pop into your shopping cart next time you’re
at the grocery or drug store.
That pink is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love it!
DeleteWow these are so pigmented!! :D
ReplyDeleteI was very pleasantly surprised how opaque and smooth they are. :)
Deleteneeeeeeeed 24 carrot gold. need so badly.
ReplyDeleteIt's an awesome color! I've worn it three days in a row now!
DeleteYay I will check these out! I love hearing good reviews for Wet 'n Wild. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I think you'll really enjoy them and you can't beat the price!
DeleteI am so loving Dollhouse Pink! I love Wet-N-Wild products for their low price and amazing quality <3
ReplyDeleteI'm consistently amazed how they're able to put out extremely affordable make-up that doesn't sacrifice quality. They really are a great brand.
DeleteI love these. I have Dollhouse Pink and Salsa Lessons! These are perfect for me because at one point I found colors like these intimidating. I can't find 24 Carrot at any store near me. UGH! Great review!
ReplyDeleteThese are definitely a great way to roadtest colors that you are intimidated by or unsure about, since you're only out two bucks if it doesn't work out. 24 Carrot is the one I had to search hardest for! I only found it at one store and haven't seen it since!
DeleteI have Salsa Lessons and it's one of my 2 go-to reds. It's smooth and perfect and works magically on pale, blue-toned skin. I've been debating back and forth about Dollhouse Pink though...you may have convinced me!
ReplyDeleteSalsa Lessons is AMAZING! When I first wore Dollhouse Pink I wasn't sure it was right for me but I kept it on for the rest of the day and wound up falling in love with it. Such a pretty pink!
