I am beyond thrilled to be able to share with you the wet n wild Queen of My Heart collection. Queen of My Heart is the spring 2017 limited edition season in a box. This collection is packed with springtime hues, ranging from soft pinks to nudes with plenty of hearts that make me think of Valentine’s Day. Below you will find my full reviews and swatches of the entire collection, so just keep reading.
wet n wild Kabuki Makeup Brush
The first item in the wet n wild Queen of My Heart collection is the kabuki brush. It is extremely soft and of high quality. The bristles are densely packed but have just the right amount of give. I plan on using it to apply setting powder all over the face. It is the perfect addition to my other wet n wild makeup brushes.
wet n wild megaglo Cheek & Lip Tint
The idea of a makeup product that can be used as lip color or blush is interesting to me. Each cheek & lip tint has sheer pigmentation, which is buildable to some degree. If you were to use these as a lip color, they will not pack as much punch as a lipstick. These tints are very creamy and swatch easily onto my skin without any dragging. They are so creamy that they seem to contain some oil. I am including a blended swatch below. The swatch blends easily and sets to about 98% dry, while still providing blush-like tint. I think these will perform well as blush. You will actually be able to tell that you are wearing blush, without looking like a clown. These would also be great for travel. I plan on using mine mainly as blush, and blending it out with a blending sponge. I also note that the swatches do not stay tacky or oily.
Crush Upon a Time is a coral blush, while Kiss Me If You Can is a traditional pink. Flirt on the Street pulls more like a mauve pink. As it just so happens, I love mauve! I am pleased that each color is distinct from the rest, providing color variety.

wet n wild megaglo Highlighting Powder
Hooray! More wet n wild megaglo highlighting powder! The formula and packaging of the new ones is the same as the old. The Sweetest Bling is an all pink-hued highlight, while Lilac to Reality is a purple and a silver. You really do get two colors per highlight. You can swirl your brush in the powder to use both colors, or use them separately. The swatches are crazy good and true to color. I highly recommend that you add these to your collection.

wet n wild coloricon Eyeshadow Trios
Continuing on with the wet n wild Queen of My Heart collection are more coloricon eyeshadow trios! I really like this color story. The colors in each trio complement each other nicely. As usual for wet n wild, the eyeshadows are very pigmented. I cannot wait to see what eyeshadow looks I can create with these.

wet n wild perfectpout Lip Palette
Upon first glance it appears you get a good variety of colors. Also, I like that they actually are trying with the brush that looks like it belongs in their brush collection. I am using the brush to do the swatching because my finger is too large to fit in the pans. The thing is, I hate lip palettes. My experience with lip palettes goes back to Chrsitmas gift sets, where you always hit pan immediately and the colors are super sheer. In fact, this palette looks like it is made for kids. Unfortunately, the colors are very sheer and hardly buildable. I am not hitting pan while swatching, but I think I am getting close. These are not quite lipglosses or lipstick and no where on the packaging or website is this specified. If you are buying items in this collection separately, I would pass on this item.
Bonus! wet n wild 1 Step Wonder Gel in Peri-wink-le of an Eye
I am slightly disappointed that the wet n wild Queen of My Heart collection does not come with a drawstring bag. But, they are giving me this bottle of 1 Step Wonder Gel that I did not order, nor is it part of the collection! This is a free $5 product, and best of all, I do not have this shade in my collection! It is a great periwinkle. Hey, I am not complaining about this one!
The wet n wild Queen of My Heart collection contains 10 items that are pretty darn good in my opinion. I recommend everything, except for the lip palette. Will you be purchasing any of these limited edition items? Which ones are your favorite? Let me know! Until next time, continue to let your true beauty shine.
