Now this is all the makeup that i purchased. For now this is just the swatches of the items because I am still checking out the items. I will include some of my first thoughts about the products. Some of the first impressions are good and some not so much but we'll end up seeing after i wear them for a while. I never
know, I could change my mind! =)

These are the Wet N Wild Idol Eyes Creme Shadow Pencils. Here are the names of the shades that i have: Green - Envy
Blue - Distress
Purple - Techno
Champagne - Pixie
Grey - Graphite
They are all frosty but they are gorgeous!! =)
This is just what they look like. They are about 3.5 inches in length from tip of cap to tip of pencil.
This photo shows the shades up close.
Here are the colors on the skin without primers. The purple shade went on a bit blotchy. It took a few tries to get the color intensity that is shown here. I do have to say that just because of the difficulty of applying the purple one, it has to be my least favorite. I don't think I would repurchase that product. It was only $.99 but still - there are plenty of products out there that will give me a good purple base without any problems. =)

This is a shade from Rimmel and it is in the shade Plum Romance. Now i know one shadow shouldn't speak for all of the shadows but I probably will not be purchasing anymore of these shadows. I get better quality shadows from ELF. Just because the shadows are inexpensive doesn't mean that you should provide a crappy one! This one wasn't my favorite. It is build-able but i don't want to dip then sweep, dip then sweep, dip then sweep.... I want one swipe intensity.
This shows that the shadow is pretty. It's purple and nice to look at but it is almost chalky and not pigmented.
This photo displays the shadow without primers, just on the skin alone. The swatch on the right is the shadow just by itself. I used a plain eyeshadow brush to apply the shadow and there was absolutely no color intensity there. The swatch on the left is the shadow with the same eyeshadow brush but wet with water.

This is the Lip Butter by Revlon in Lollipop. It is very bright but i like it! It's very smooth on the lips! It really does seem like a lip balm! =)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a Revlon matte lipstick in Mauve It Over. I LOVE IT! Since this color is matte, you need a gloss over it for the nice shine but is still looks really pretty! =)

Now this mascara I wasn't so fond of. It just doesn't have too much product in there. I took the wand
out of the tube and it was already dry! =/ It's good for on the go - like if you are in a hurry to get somewhere and you forget your favorite mascara......at least is SOMETHING to have around. I mean I did get it for $.99 so hey, what can I expect right?
The photo down here just displays the wand.... BOO!!

This is my favorite find!!!! This is the Wet N Wild trio palette in Spoiled Brat! OH MY GOSH!! I absolutely love this palette!!! The colors are fantastic!! Literally only one sweep and what you see in the pan is what you get! 10 out of 10 stars!
Check out the swatches in this photo!! That is just with one sweep! =D I was blown away!
This is the second row and this is where you begin to see the coluh!!! :D The pink shade ( 3rd from left to right) isn't very pigmented... it actually feels very chalky. Maybe you just can't see it on my brown skin... :D
This is the last row in the bunch and it is my favie! :D I like smokey eyes so that purple is GORGEOUS!! I have to be honest... that last color is supposed to be the black shade of the bunch.... it is not pigmented at all which is a shame. :( In this picture, the 3rd color from the left is blue and looks black. I do have to say that one is one of my favorites because it has that silky texture to it and it is super pigmented. I love it!! OH!! and that first color that you see at the far left, i love to use as a highlight on the brow bone. In the palette it looks pink but it actually comes off white. :)
