Details
This is yet another collection that got dropped with no warning, so there is no set release date. wet n wild claims that this Christmas 2024 collection is available exclusively in-store at Walmart, however, all of the box sets are available online. I was able to order the boxes, then I did in-store pickup for the loose items.
Availability is horrible with this collection! The worst yet. No stores around me, not even my usuals, got the items. I had to go to another state to an out of the way store and travel down back roads. This experience echos that of others.
This is a 12-piece collection, 17 if you count every individual items. There is no PR-box. You must purchase everything individually. Many items have a sugar cookie or holiday-like smell/taste that is delightful! If you are thinking hey, this collection reminds me a lot of Holiday Foxtrot which was exclusive to Ulta, you are correct!
Lip Gloss & Lip Liner Set
Each of these sets contain a perfectpout Gel Lip Liner in colors that are not new from their core line, then two limited edition lip glosses in a gold glitter and a white glitter. Their lip liner formula is one of my all-time-favorites! It is super creamy for effotless application. There is no tugging or skipping. The finish is natural and it is long wearing.
I am not a lip gloss gal, but wet n wild’s formula is iconic at the drugstore and noteworthy. It has the right amount of thickness, yet it is not heavy or sticky. You must re-apply as needed. The glitter is super shiny, making these a great choice to wear over the lip liner or another lip color.
Claims: The lip liners should be waterproof and richly pigmented, while the lip gloss is a dazzling high-shine.

5-Piece Makeup Brush & Sponge Set
We have seen all of these brushes and sponges from wet n wild before, but the holiday design is the special part. This holiday brush set has excellent options for powder, blush/bronzer, and the crease. You cannot beat their brushes. They are super soft, of high quality, and they will last forever.
I am also a major fan of their sponges! Add those to your list of the best drugstore blending sponges. They expand when wet, are super bouncy, and give you a flawless, streak-free blend. They also absorb little product and are easy to clean.
Claims: This set features brushes with soft, high-quality bristles to give you smooth and even makeup.

Glitter Mascara & Eyelash Curler Set
This is their eyelash curler from the core line, but in a limited-time red color. Do not forget that they already gave us this red curler in the wet n wild Peanuts collection, but this one does not have the Snoopy charm. This has been my daily eyelash curler for years, ever since it was released! It painlessly grabs all of your lashes for a superior curl.
We have seen the Glitter Mascara before, not just in past limited edition collections, but Fantasy Makers as well. The formula makes lash and brow hairs stiff and crunchy, but the glitter does show up. As you can imagine, it is a bit aggravating to wash off.
Claims: The glitter mascara will add festive sparkle, while the lash curler gives you a dramatic lift. This is sure to make your eyes pop.

Glitter Palette & Brush Set
This glitter palette with eyeshadow brush reminds me a lot of the duo from the wet n wild Scooby Doo collection. Of course, I love their eyeshadow brush for the same reasons that I laid out on the brush set. I have never been a fan of their glitters. It is a glitter suspended in a gel formula, similar to petroleum jelly. It is not something that will stay in place on the eye, but might be more fanciful for dramatic face makeup.
Claims: This glitter palette contains vibrant shades designed for holiday party glam. The included brush gives you effortless, precise application.

Eye & Face Palette and Eyeliner Set
The past few palettes have not had the level of pigmentation that we expect from the brand, and I am sad to say that again here. For the most part, they are ok. The deep plum should be dark and rich, but it is not. The champagne shimmer is out of this world! The teal will give you a lot of fallout, but the other shades do not do that. I see little to no kickup otherwise. The shades are easy to blend and to build. There are no shade names, just numbers on the back.
The eyeliner is super creamy and pigmented! It does not skip or tug. I find it easy to draw a wing, but, it does not want to draw on the eyelid over eyeshadow. It is a beautiful shade of brown that I am happy to see them pull out of their OG vault. It is the coloricon Kohl Liner Pencil in Simma Brown Now!
Claims: This eyeshadow palette should be vibrant for day to night makeup. It includes a smooth eyeliner to add definition with a precise tip.

Liquid Highlighter & Mini Sponge Set
This is the Hello Halo Liquid Highlighter in Halo, Goodbye from their core line, plus their mini blending sponge. You already know how I feel about the sponges. I do like their liquid highlighter. I find it to be buildable to your desired intensity without removing coverage underneath or emphasizing texture. It blends very well, even on stubborn areas like the nose. It is not as impactful as a powder highlight.
Claims: The highlighter should provide a radiant glow and soft, luminous finish along with precision application from the mini sponge.

Candy Cane Lip Mask in Candy Kiss
This is their regular lip mask formula that we have seen so many times over, but the candy cane flavor is nice. I used to think highly of these, but, now I know you do not need them! Skip the lip mask and go straight for the lip oil if you want lips that feel amazing. This product will function as a standard thick lip balm with a low-medium level of shine.
Claims: This is a fun and festive treat for your lips as it contains nourishing ingredients to deliver hydration and softness. The lightweight formula should melt into your lips for simple application.

Holiday Lip Oil in Cookie Sweet
You already know my obsession with their lip oils! They leave my lips feeling like no other product does. The need to exfoliate is virtually elimated. I wear these once a day as a mask before bed to get lips like a baby’s bottom. They also work great as primer, and as actual makeup. They are super shiny! Get yourself this limited-time hue! While you are at it, check out my wet n wild Lip Oil review.
Claims: The formula is enriched with lip-loving ingredients that promote hydration. It is lightweight to glide on and for comfotable wear. The oil can be worn solo or for layering to add a pop of shine.

Sugar Cookie Lip Scrub in So Toasty
We have also seen this lip scrub many times over, but you cannot go wrong with the formula. Besides the yummy taste, their formula is gentle yet effective at removing dead skin. Use this product first, then follow up with the lip oil. Thank me later!
Claims: This lip scrub should gently exfoliate to remove dead skin for a smooth finish. The formula is enriched with nourishing ingredients to hydrate and soften. It is great for prepping your lips for makeup!

Glitter Lip Oil
Alright, two more lip oils, this time in the glitter variety! While I have already shared my love for the formula above, I want to say that the glitter in these is subtle on the lips.
Claims: The formula is enriched with lip-loving ingredients that promote hydration. It is lightweight to glide on and for comfotable wear. The oil can be worn solo or for layering to add a pop of shine.

Makeup Look
This is my full face of wet n wild makeup look, featuring what I can from the Holiday Beauty Treats. I am playing with color for a fun glam look for your next get together.
To recreate the eye look, start by applying shade 2 high in the crease. Next, apply shade 10 lower in the crease and along the lower lash line. Now, apply shade 5 on the outer corner. Then, using your finger, apply 7 all over the eyelid. Use shade 9 on the inner corner and bring it upwards slightly. Finish by highlighting the brow bone with shade 3 and make a wing with the brown eyeliner.
