Review & Swatches: Wet n Wild Matte lipsticks




For comparison I added the Revlon Matte lipsticks in Pink Pout and Nude Attitude, both somewhat close to the two Wet n Wild colors.
As you can tell, Pink Pout is a bit more lavender/purple than Think Pink and Pink Suga' is a bit more orange than Nude Attitude.


Think Pink


Pink Suga' (not sure why they call this "pink," it's clearly orange/peachy)


Just Peachy
Surprisingly my favorite of the 3, very wearable nude pinky-peach color. Highly recommend this one!

Sorry about the inconsistent lighting again, I guess next time I'll just do all the lipsticks at once o.o

Pros:
- Pigmented
- Inexpensive
- Good color selection (I got the lighter end of the spectrum)

Cons:
- Slightly drying (need a lip balm underneath)
- Not super smooth
- Lipstick doesn't twist in all the way
Made in China (someone asked me why this a con: there are ppl who are iffy about this because China, as of right now, has loose regulations against toxins or lead or something in cosmetics)

Verdict:
If you were interested in the Revlon Matte lipsticks but didn't want to try'em because of the price, get the Wet n Wild ones. They're almost the same, except they have a bit less product and the packaging looks cheaper.
I find that the best way to apply matte lipsticks without it looking "cakey" is to dab it bit by bit, this method also works well with dark lipsticks.

Price:
$2.99 for 0.12 oz / 3.4 g

Repurchase?
Only the Just Peachy one.
