I have talked about this in one of my favorites videos, but seriously you guys, I don’t think I’ll ever buy another MAC eyeshadow again. Not when I can get the same pigmentation quality and creamy powder consistency (without chalkiness or fallout) at the drugstore for a fraction of the price. Continuing this series, if you’re looking for a steal and don’t want to pay $14 for a single designer eyeshadow, head to your nearest drugstore. I’m going back to buy the rest of the color line! Wet N Wild has knocked this out of the park! See more splurge or steals here. Like this post if you want to keep seeing Splurge vs. Steal posts–I’m relying on your feedback!

Good to know. This is not the first time I read reve reviews about wet ‘n wild eye shadow palettes… Now I want to try one!
I love drugstore makeup, so thanks for the heads-up on this. Will have to check it out. 🙂
When I was younger I used to use more Wet n Wild products but I can’t say I have any right now. I assumed they were not as great of a brand anymore, but I saw your video on how much you like their new eyeshadows and now after this post, I feel I need to try them out!
Yes, Mac is sometimes so over priced. I purchased several of their nail polishes and was so disappointed in the consistency. I would have done better with drug store brands.
it’s such a shame you can’t get wet’n’wild items in Europe (well at least not in the Czech Rep.), I like MAC but at their prices its not really doable for a university student. so I use brands like Rimmel or Sephora.
Must try! RT @prttyshnysprkly: New post: Splurge vs. Steal: MAC Eyeshadow http://t.co/UBIfcPGd #Beauty #splurgevssteal
Went out and bought a Wet N Wild palette immediately after your last post and I’m so glad I did! (No way this college budget can do the Mac line.) I’d die to see a video tutorial of how you apply yours so smoothly and flawlessly! Thanks for the heads up about these Wet N Wild shadows!
I love MAC, but I have two kids. $14 on a single eye shadow isn’t happening! I love Wet and Wild, Rimmel, Prestige… basically everything you find at Walgreens. I love these posts though, keep them coming forever!-Ash

I would have never guessed Wet N Wild would have good, quality make up. I will be checking their eyeshadows out for sure! Thanks!
These posts are great! Keep ’em coming!
I love Wet N’ Wild’s eye shadows palettes! After one of your videos raving about them, I purchased one and love it! Thanks for the advice :)Jonna

I’ve tried these W&W shadows and I’m SO on-board with you…they are amazing! Super blend-able and perfectly pigmented!
I adore the WnW shadows! I have the Comfort Zone and Petal Pusher palettes – I need to pick up some of the three-color ones! WnW has most certainly improved over the years!
wow! i’ve gotta try wet n wild now!
Great tip and review! How’s the staying power of the Wet n Wild eyeshadows? My big problem with most makeup is that it’s rubbed off by the end of the work day! (even with primer) Would love to get your take on how long it lasts vs Mac and other 🙂
Love, S

Really great colors in the Wet N Wild shadows! I’ll have to check it out!
But I still love mac’s false eyelashes and eyebrow pencil (in fling for blondes!)
Interesting! I have to check this out. I haven’t paid any attention to wet n wild since I was a broke teenager. thanks for the post.
This is awesome!! I have a HUGE obsession with eyeshadow so the less the price but with great quality, the better. Another good drugstore eyeshadow brand is HIP: High Intensity Pigments by L’Oreal … The colors really pop!!
Wow! Got to give this a try. I’ve been shelling over the big bucks for MAC eyeshadow because I heard it was the best. My pocketbook thanks you! (I love this series, btw)

Thank you for the budget friendly advice! Something I am really impressed about with Wet n wild is that they DON’T test on animals, so I will happily wear their cosmetics!…Only thing is, its so hard to find in New Zealandxox Amie

I just bought a Covergirl eyeshadow and have gotten tons of compliments the past few days on my eyes (which I am attributing to the new eyeshadow, perhaps there is no correlation but it makes sense to me). Makes me think I have been overpaying for eyeshadow that was not doing anything better for me or my eyes!
We just discovered this fun website and its 'splurge vs steal' posts. Money is tight and makeup is expensive, so… http://t.co/rphkr7X1
Love the Splurge or Steal series – thank you!!
Its funny because I think I actually like the look and shades of the steal version better! There are some things I like from MAC but I don’t use eye shadow enough to spend a lot of money on it unless its something REALLY special that I’m completely lusting over!
