Wet'n'Wild Megalast Don't Blink Pink

So I picked up one more lippie from the new WnW Megalast Offerings. Of course Don't Blink Pink is just as bright as the other two( check out my review of Purty Parsimmon and Cherry Picking HERE). It is a bright neony pink colour that should work across skintones as its overly cool.  



I have two other similar lippies - Milani Rose Hip which is supposedly a dupe for the infamous Nars Schiap (worn by Kim K in this pic) and Maybelline CS in Fuchsia Fever which should be a dupe MAC Candy Yum Yum LE lippie from the Quite Cute collection( lippie that disappeared in a matter of minutes and is quite sought after- should be repromoted later in the year!). 




Anyway, I've swatched the three lipsticks and while they are not exact dupes for each other they are very similar. Rose Hip is my favourite out of the three but I love the lasting power of the Megalast lippies. As always, make sure your lips are in perfect condition before applying any of the matte WnW Lipsticks, or any bright lippie for that matter:)

Wet'n'Wild for the win- new Megalast shades review and swatches!

Oh man, I am so tired!! Been trying to run in the park these past couple of days and haven't been sleeping well so my batteries are totally drained as of lately.
Here is a quick blog post about the amazingly awesome and extremely affordable (read dirt cheap) WnW mega last lipsticks.
I had a couple of shades of the mega lasts but one was too dark, the other was too nude (washed my face away) and despite that those shades didn't exactly work for me I was impressed with the pigmentation and matte-ness of the megalasts. Now, they can be very very drying and it is imperative that your lips are super moisturized and very well scrubbed as with any matte lipstick -these will make every little imperfection, especially any flaking,  look more visible.
I am "talking" too much again! I noticed some new shades recently at CVS - noticed them coz they had the sticker "NEW SHADE" on them and because they were super bright and stood out! One was a bright coral named Purty Parsimmon that reminded me of a more orange version of the now DC Revlon matte l/s in Strawberry Suade. The other shade is Cherry Picking and it is a bright berry colour that I also love. 
Both shades brighten your whole face and in my opinion would be really flattering across skintones.
As mentioned- moisturize and then moisturize some more before using these.  They are long wearing and the best part is that as they wear off they leave a beautiful stain on your lips.




A definite Win from Wet'n'Wild.
I just found out from a really lovely lady that posts FOTDs on a
certain MU board that there are several other new bright shades that I didn't see at the time so I have to track those down as well! $1.99 and there is usually BOGOs going on so- yes dirt cheap!No more talking!!! Here are some swatches!
