I bought this when I forgot my make-up bag. I was afraid b/c of the shimmers but was pleasantly surprised! The shimmer didn't show up too shimmery although I would still prefer a mixture of matt and shimmer. My MAC Naked Lunch had broken so it was a nice surprise that this gave me the similar wide awake look. I am very abusive to my make-up and have since broken this. I adore how compact it is and am reconsidering buying it again. It helped in assisting me to not look so exhausted.

The hype surrounding this palette got me to buy this...it is a goof-proof shadow that's perfect for an everyday neutral eye. I would have given this 5 lippies if the all three shades differed a bit in the aount of shimmer or color intensity. If you have similar colors in your stash like I do, I would just pass on this. It probably won't be any better than what you already have, and it can't be any worse that what you have, if that make any sense. My lemming for this wore off after the first swatch on my wrist... sigh...

I think the whole point of buying DS products is to save money. I refuse to go to the DS and spend 15 dollars on a makeup item!! If I wanted to do that, I'll shell out a few more dollars for something HE and high quality. This is why I love WnW, their stuff is good quality (well the e/s is, I haven't tried much of their other stuff), at reasonable prices, the way it should be at the DS. I like E.L.F. for this reason too, but their e/s isn't nearly as good. WnW e/s is very good quality for the money. It's the best e/s at the DS imo, AND the cheapest!! Ok, onto Walking on Eggshells. It's highly pigmented, like all the WnW e/s that I've tried, and the colors are sooo pretty! This is the e/s trio I reach for more often than any of my others because the colors are buildable, great for daytime, and sooo pigmented (like I already mentioned lol). I had to mention it again tho, because I only recently started using the WnW e/s and I am just floored at how much I love them. I had become pretty disinterested in e/s all together as I got older and started wearing less mu, but these trios have me wearing it all the time again. I had forgotten how much fun e/s can be! I have quads by Lancome, and Dior, but I seriously wear this more often. Imagine that lol. Obviously, yes I'd recommend this to anyone that likes pretty, versatile, pigmented eye shadow.

I have had most of these trios & finally broke down & got this one to complete my collection. I dont know why I waited so long to get it because I can see how it will be my most used/go to day wear eyeshadow. On my nc25 complexion it can be worn subtle or I can layer it on heavier. Ive wore it with just the lid & brow shade by themselves or all 3. Its flattering & not over the top like the other trios can be. It is also age appropriate imo for myself (33 & mom of 2). I have to say that this might be my favorite no brainer daytime eyeshadow!

Once you get over the cheap packaging, you will fall in LOVE with this trio. It is super creamy, pigmented and blend-able. This can be an everyday item for any skin tone.

I got this trio for $1.42, after finding a store that sold a wider variety of the line (Meijer). I'm really not a fan of lime greens, fuschias, or blues so this was one of the only other palettes I was interested in. I also have "Silent Treatment" and like it a lot. This trio is similar to that, but with warmer colors.
I wear these under my Nyx Milk pencil.
Browbone: Eggshell. All that can be said color wise haha! Smooth, not too chalky, very shimmery.
Crease: A beautiful golden brown bronze. Very pigmented, blendable, smooth, no fallout whatsoever. Shimmery, flattering even for my cool skin tone. I used it as a liner in my inner corners as well as crease.
Eyelid: a beautiful, beautiful shimmery peach with what seems like rose gold tones to it? Pigmented, smooth, blendable.

One downside is how shimmery they all are. I have little definition, just a ton of smoked out tones of shimmer. It's beautiful, but not dramatic enough. I will play around with it, but these are great shadows. And for the price??? Great.

I'm super impressed with this pigmented, smooth textured, inexpensive, and simply gorgeous eyeshadow trio. I love using this trio for a quick and easy neutral eye. The only negative thing about this trio is all three shades are shimmery and I personally don't feel comfortable wearing all shimmery shades on my lids. When I use this trio I always incorporate a matte brown shade blended into the crease and outer V to tone down the shimmer, help camouflage my hooded eyes, and add further dimension. Some of my favourite and go to shades that work well with this trio are MAC's Wedge, Corduroy, Mystery, Charcoal Brown, and Cork. Sometimes I'll even use matte purples, greys, and black to totally change the look. I really do like the versatility of this trio as the colours are so neutral and compliment and coordinate with each other so well.

I didn't believe all the hype with these eyeshadows comparing them to higher end brands, but my skeptical thinking came to an end once I finally bought this trio. I got it for only $2.49, so I knew if they turned out to be terrible I wouldn't be out much money. The colors are gorgeous, the pigmentation is great, the shadows are silky and I was pleasantly surprised! I love this and I want to buy many many more. Also, the matching of the colors with the others in the trio is wonderfully done, and they just look so great together. I really do suggest this. Also, I don't use an eye primer, and they still stayed on a decent amount of time. I'm sure that with some UDPP or anything along those lines, these shadows will really shine. Nice job Wet'n'Wild!

How easy does it get? Goes on great, smooth, a bit of shimmer, lasts forever. Perfect neutral. Cannot beat the price.

I just wanted a cheap, natural-eye palette. This is it. A little more shimmery than anticipated, but I am not against a little shimmer. How could I complain when I only paid $4(CAD) for such wonderfully pigmented, great quality eyeshadows. The colours really complement each other. They're easily blendable. I wear them over top of my Urban Decay Primer Potion. I use my $1.50(CAD) E.L.F. eyeshadow brush to apply. These shadows do not budge, they stay put all day long! Wet 'n' Wild is so impressive. I'll have to check out some of their other palettes..

I used this for the first time this morning and for the price, this is a fantastic trio. It has decent pigmentation (not great, but not bad either) and the colors are really lovely, alone or together. I used it over Nyx primer and it seems to be staying on very well. I didnt have any difficulty blending the colors, so thats a big plus. Overall, I wont be buying this particular trio again because I have so many similiar colors, but I would definitely recommend it if you like natural looks.

Love this trio! Well actually the whole color icon series is great as a whole brand! The lid color is absolutely beautiful, and so pretty just alone! The crease color is wonderful as well, and the highlight is just as great(: These colors are very rich and smooth, and EXTREMELY pigmented! Its so great, and for only 2.99 where can you go wrong?!! I will defiantly be buying more eye shadows!

I really like this trio. It's highly pigmented and it's CHEAP! It's lasts a long time on my eyes without primer. If this was waterproof I'd be doing cartwheel!

I am consistently impressed with WnW eyeshadows...the feel, the texture, the color payoff, the beautiful range of shadows. The price is amazing, considering the quality of the product. This is my first trio and i couldn't be happier. When used as directed, all the colors blend beautifully on the eye. I admit, i would prefer a bit darker of a crease color for my complexion, but it doesn't stop me from wearing this trio. I will occassionally use the crease color as the lid color and i'm ready to go. When i want a soft, natural eye, i always reach for this one, never looks overly done up, perfect for work. there is slight shimmer to these colors, which i adore.

I am not a lover of neutral eye shadows, and I almost passed on buying this trio, but I picked it up on a whim at Kmart at a BOGO free sale and I love it. All three colors work. They are very soft in texture and look. The colors look very neutral but really make a tired eye come alive. I think the colors would look great on anyone.

This trio is absolutely amazing. The colors are very pigmented, apply smoothly, have the perfect amount of shimmer, and last all day. I am a huge fan of Wet n Wild eye shadows and these did not let me down. They look so natural and beautiful, I can wear these every day. The eyelid and crease colors are almost exactly the same and the eyelid and crease colors on the left hand side in the Comfort Zone eight pan palette except they are a bit lighter and a little less shimmery. I think this trio is a great buy and everyone who loves the natural yet beautifully put together look should get this. I will definitely be repurchasing.

Everyday neutral brown color.Looks natural on my NC 40 skin color , Compliments my black eye color...
I use this trio ,actually in three different ways
1. The lid color and the crease color individually...
2.All three of them . ( typical )
3. And the best part is , the brow bone color is not only a highlighter but also provides a NICE BASE COLOR on all over the lid , and apply a different color ( I like purple , red , gold etc...) on top of it ...

Dirt cheap around $ 3...Sometimes Walgreens or C.V.S have a sale of BOGO 50% off WnW , it's definitely worth a try !

Quite pigmented with enough shimmer and lasts with a primer ... What else do we expect from an eyeshadow ?

Don't like the brushes though that come with it... Too short ...I don't know how to use them..

Not bad, especially considering the price. I like the crease and eyelid shades, but the light browbone color has a little too much sheen and a slightly chalky look. If I use all three shadows together, I like to put the lightest shade on the inner lid instead of the browbone. A pretty, natural and low-maintenance look.
