I can’t recall Wet n Wild ever doing loose pigments before but please correct me if I’m wrong!

Wet n Wild Color Icon Loose Pigment come housed in a 0.07 oz jar with a dual-lid and sifter. Each shade will set you back $2.99 each so, they are a nice budget pick up. Pigments in general are a bit messy but I thought this packaging made things a little messier. The main lid unscrews to reveal another lid that snaps close. There’s no inner well for the pigment to rest in during application so I shook a small amount into the lid but this made things messy when I replaced the lid. Typically pigments allow you to shake some into the lid but when the lid is replace the pigment will fall into the sifter well. This does have a sifter but there is no well for the pigment to fall into so any excess ends up all over the place when you next open the outer lid. You might want to resort to shaking a small amount onto your wrist and dipping a brush in to it to avoid messy packaging.
Aside from the packaging I liked these. Pigments can be messy yes, but they can also create some really pretty looks. These can be used on eyes, face, or even mixed with a clear gloss to create a metallic lipgloss of sorts. The formula is quite smooth and not chunky in the least. The apply very easily but do have a bit of fall out to contend with. I’d recommend using a MAC Paint Pot or some cream base to minimize the fall out during application and blending. These are shimmery but the shimmer is more refined and not hardcore glittery chunks. They actually apply with a metallic finish if you wet your brush for a very cool foiled look!
If you’re looking for some cheap Fall friendly eye pigments these are worth a purchase. Yes, they are part of a Holiday Collection but the shades are all very Fall friendly so you’ll be able to get some very warm sparkly looks out of them right now and some great Holiday looks from them as well as the season grows nearer.
For $2.99 a pop you can’t go wrong.
