Exciting news guys, Wet N Wild is launching a bunch of new products in 2018, and they are all coming to Canada! I for one am super stoked about this news because I just adore Wet n Wild and I manged to get a peek at the times at a showcase a few weeks back and everything was AMAZING! I really cannot wait.

Mega Cushion:
First up WNW's Cushion Colour Correctors, Highlighter and Bronzer are all coming to Canada in the new year. They have been in the USA and online for a while, but now we too can access them, and that is pretty exciting to me.

Cushions are such a popular trend right now, so it is only natural WNW would jump into making some themselves, but only a few high end brands make colour correctors in it, so it is nice to see that they are going to be much more accessible to the general public. 

The line will feature a Green, Peach and Lavender Correctors, a Bronzer and a Highlighter. The best part is (other then the fantastic formula) that they are going to be $7.99 Canadian, which makes snatching them all up extremely affordable.

Color Icon:
Another think that has gotten me super excited is that their eyeshadow palettes are getting a significant makeover. The trios are getting a fourth transition shade (thus becoming quads)  and the larger eight shade palettes are getting two new transition shades. They both are also getting newer improved formula. Since these are some of their most popular products, it is pretty exciting to be getting more shades and a formula upgrade. 

The best thing is that loved palettes aren't going anywhere. Below is a photo of the old and new Sweet As Candy palette as well as Comfort Zone. Plus they are adding new palettes to the ranges. The Quads are getting three new ones, bringing the total to number of palettes to six and the 10-Pans are getting three more making the total in the line four.
They WNW didn't forget their Eyeshadow Singles, they have gotten a new look and formula too. They'll be $1.99 Cad when they launch next year.
There is also going to be new Glitter Singles. Single pan glitter shadows infused with vitamin E in seven shades.

Hello Halo:
The product I am most excited for is Hello Halo, a liquid highlight. In a tube with super fat doe-foot applicator, these creamy highlighter are just freakin' awesome. I feel in love with them at the showcase, especially the Holographic shade.
There are going to be seven shades in total, ranging from halo, bronzy to rose gold. The shades Halo and Holographic both have me wanting them. Before I tried them I was obsessed with getting CoverFx's holographic shade, but as soon as I saw this that idea went out  the window. These are so darn pretty I just cannot properly express how great they are. And the best part is they are only $7.99 Cad, so you don't have spend a fortune to get them.

Other Additions:
In addition to these new items in the line up some other items are getting additions.  Their Perfect Pour Gel Lip Liners are getting six new shades bringing the range to total of twelve. Photo Focus Setting Spray will be gaining a Matte version. There are going to be new retractable Brow Pencils which look amazing. Those white and pink brushes that have only been in the USA or online for the last two years are finally making their Canadian debut. Finally their MegaGlow Highlighting Powder is getting some new shades added to its already popular line up, bringing the number available up to six.

All in all there are so many incredible new items coming to Canada from Wet n Wild it is a bit hard to contain myself. I am lucky enough to have a few already in my hands, but I am going to hunt down the Hello Halo sticks as soon as they get to Canada. As well I am going to update my eyeshaodw collection, I love my old trios, but the new quads look so much better and frankly for the cost there is no way I can pass up getting new ones.

What new Wet N Wild items interest you the most? What do you think of the new stuff?

Joe Fresh has just launched a bunch of new products for spring. I was lucky enough to get a few items to try out and am going to show you some swatches and reviews. Here we go.

Universal Brow Crayon ($12)
This is a fat eyebrow pencil that comes in just one universal shade. It is waxy so it helps set your brows exactly how you like them while colouring them in nicely. I was hesitant that the universal shade would look great on me with my darker hair, but it looks fantastic. Since it is a twist up, you don't have to worry about sharpening it. While it works well on me I am not sold on it working for someone with darker hair or looking for a darker brow look. I really do wish it came in a few shades.

8 HR Waterproof Kohl Eyeliner ($8)
Everyone loves a nice gel kohl liner, right? I know I do. These new 8 hour liners are smudgable but last 8 hours. They also come in an incredibly Navy and Burgundy.

Eyeshadows ($6 each or 2/$10)
Joe Fresh's shadows have always been a favourite of mine, I have purchased so many over the years I lost count. I even once did a post on how to depot them (it isn't easy, it involved a soldering iron, and I haven't tried it since 2011).

This spring there are some amazing new neutral and metallic shades. The mattes blend well and are richly pigmented while the metallic are creamy and just plain fantastic. Cinnamon and Cocao are matte while Pretty Penny, Champagne and Meteor are metallic in finish.

These shadows go on super smooth and blend like a dream. I have applied them with a fully crease brush for a more sheer wash of colour or packed it on with a flat brush for more opacity. Either way it always works out great and they look amazing. There also isn't much fallout or fly away product no matter what type of brush you use.

Highlighter Stick ($10)
This illuminating stick stick in Pink Pearl glides on to the skin to create a beautiful soft pink glow. It transforms from a cream to a powder after blending and look fanatic on the skin. I love how this one glows, such a pretty shade. It also goes on the skin super easy and blends out while keeping the look. I personally think you can skip your powder highlighter when you use this baby.

Tinted Lip Balms ($12)
Nothing beats a tinted lip balm, except a tinted lip balm that has a great flavour to it. Loaded with Grape Seed, Maracuja, Sunflower, Rosehip and Avocado oils as well as Shea Butter these lip balms are loaded up with lip nourishing goodness. With 10 flavours with slight tints to them there is probably one that you will like. I've been trying out Lychee, which I am in love with (I really love lychees).  I find the formula really hydrating and smooth, it isn't thin in constancy so you know it is going to hang out a while on the lips. It also packs quite the colour punch for a tinted lip balm, sometimes you get weak shades that don't show on the lip, but these definitely do.
Today's look features Cinnamon eyeshadow all over the lid and Meteorite eyeshadow  on the outer half to create a brown and grey look as well as the blue liner. I also used the highlighter on my cheeks and under by brow bone, brow pencil and lip balm. 

The only other items I used were Joe Fresh's Hydra Lash Mascara and a classic bush of theirs from my collection, Buff (which I am sure no longer exists but I still love).
Overall, I like all Joe Fresh's new items, a lot. If I had to have must tries it would be, the new shadows, highlighter stick and the tinted lip balm.

Have you tired any of these new items from Joe Fresh? What would you like to try out?
