I really like this product to layer with another product. I only say that because I am caramel colored and these were just to light to be used alone. But I did layer it with another product from L.A. colors and was very happy. The Coloricon eyeshadow are all blendable, soft, and very pigmented colors that I am sure the majority of people will be happy with. It is so nice to know that you as a consumer do not have to go out of your way to buy expensive cosmetics unless you want to. I not saying that everything you buy has to be cheap or expensive. It is just nice to know that you now have the option to not have to spend thousands of dollars to build you makeup collection. I am loving drugstore and discount store makeup. I can now go to Mac or Christan Dior as treat for myself

I bought this trio thinking that it would be just meh and boring but okay for everyday neutrals! Well boy was I wrong! These are beautiful shimmery shadows. I see that some reviews mentioned they were chalky but I don't find that to be the case. Mine go one smooth and blend like nobody's business.

The way I wear it the most is that the eyelid and crease color go where its supposed to and the browbone color is my inner corner highlight. I wear a matte cream (WnW Brulee) on the brow because a shimmery browbone would be too much with this trio.

The eyelid shade is a perfect match to Stila's Kitten and a good dupe for Urban Decay's Sin! They both happen to be my favorite colors!

I got this half off so I only paid $1.50 for the trio! If you see this don't pass it by!

I have been loving WNW eyeshadows. I have 2 palettes, vanity and lust. Now 2 trios Sweet as Candy and now Walking on Eggshells. I love all of them and I found a $3 dupe for MACs JEST. I'm so happy!

LOVE THIS PRODUCT! I love everything about this. The colors are great for everyday wear, especially the lid color. I wear it alone and it looks great. They feel creamy and aren't too shimmery, but just the right amount. I can't wait to repurchase this. Plus, the price is amazing for such well-pigmented eyeshadows. $1.99!

Very pretty!! I find it very close to my CG Shimmering Sands trio. Perfect for an everyday look. I enjoy the frostiness of the eyeshadow as I hate matte colours and it's pigmented! The crease colour is VERY dark when applied so a little goes a long way. All in all, I will repurchase.

I really don't understand the high ratings for this shadow set. Sure it's $4. But why would you spend any money on a product that's terrible? These are just as crappy as Covergirl eyeshadows. The shadows in here are super frosty. The pink is so light, it comes out like an icy white color.

I tried applying these over TFSI, over a thick paint base, with my regular shadow brush, and applying them with a wet sponge brush. The best results I got were with the wet sponge brush pressing lightly a bit at a time into my lid. Even then though, these shadows are too frosty and have a LOT of fallout. Very poor quality and color payoff. I'm not going to try any more Wet n' Wild shadows if they are all like this.

The hype about this trio is real. This is an official must haves for any makeup junkies out there. The color in the plastic look so blah, but when applied, they are very subtle and gorgeous. Like many reviewers wrote, the highlight (white) is too frosty for my medium skin-tone. but the eyelid and crease color itself make the palette worth buying.

The only criticism I have is the lack of staying power, it started to crease 4 - 6 hours after applied, with primer. For $3 I don't think that's an issue.

Also, the crease color I use on my lower lash line gives a dark gold, bronzy color, it's soooooo pretty! ^_^

I know Wet n Wild gets a lot of hype on here. I will agree that their shadows are good quality for their price, but I don't enjoy this palette as much as I thought I would. Although the colors are pretty and brighten my eyes a lot, I find them way too frosty for my tastes. I also prefer a matte or satin brow highlight. Again, it's super frosty and also way too light for my light-medium skin. I don't think I will be repurchasing, but I would still recommend it for those who do love shimmery eyeshadow.

An almost stark white with a little cream, and a nice sheen.
A dark coffee brown, with tiny shimmers.
A shimmery pink for your eyelid.
All of these colors are very pigmented and smooth, but unfortunately for me, both the white and pink simply do not work for my nc37-40 skintone. the brown isn't bad though

Would not repurchase .

I've bought this product multiple times now. I go to this trio when I don't have a lot of time to do my eyes. I don't really use the lightest (almost white) shade...it comes off too white/chalky on my pale skin. The other two colors blend together flawlessly and easily. If I really want them to stand out I apply them over Laura Mercier's Rose Gold metallic cream shadow! Will always repurchase.

Great set of neutral colors but on my NC43 skin I feel like I have to pack on the Lid and Crease colors to get them to show up. The highlighter/brow color is pretty but it can feel chalky sometimes. I recommend it for lighter skin tones because the colors are very pretty!

These were very creamy and smooth feeling, well pigmented, however the colors just seemed a tad light/almost frosty, on me, and thus I didn't use it much. But I liked having it around (weird, i know). It recently died of friendly fire in a depotting war (RIP), because I find the packaging hideous. Not really rushing out to get a new one, but I MIGHT. I will give it a no for repurchase but change to a yes if I do end up deciding I can't live without it.

This trio is worth the price for the eyelid color alone. The other two colors are decent, but the color payoff of the pinky color is just amazing. I've read on several blogs that the eyelid color is a good dupe for stila's kitten; however, seeing as I've neither owned nor sampled stila's kitten I cannot justify (nor refute) this claim. Nevertheless, over primer or a base (a must for these eyeshadows), they last all day and look great! Would definitely recommend.

This is a lovely trio. My eyes are difficult to make up, deep set, very dark circles, pale blue, indistinct. A great book from the library called Looking Younger finally showed me how to do it right and what palette to use - tawny shades for blue eyes.

For deep-set eyes, the highlight color goes on the lid, crease, and around the inner corner, the midtone up to the brow, the crease shade never in the crease but on the outermost portion of the lid, outer brow and underlining from the outside corner. Now, my eyes can be bright, open, sexy.

The highlight shade persists longer than the mid and dark shades. It's sort of a golden shimmery white, gorgeous on the inside corner. The foam applicator is worthless, and the shadow needs to be dampened if you want it to stick well. My other complaint is that it's a bit too shimmery for my older eyelids, and too shimmery for daytime and work, but I'm going to match the palette in something more matte.

But at a cost of 2 or 3 bucks, who could complain? And it seems to work for many different skin tones.

Gorgeous colors for a neutral pink eye. I'm pale-ish and warm skinned; a darker skinned girl might need to build more color to get enough pigmentation. The formula is smooth and creamy. The packaging sucks and the price (less than $#) is amazing! I'd happily pay three times what I paid for this palette. Overall, this will probably end up being my "go to" palette for everyday wear.

Definitely not trying to drag down the rating of a stellar product, here... shadows are wonderfully pigmented, buttery-smooth, and apply like a dream! I love neutrals and wish so much these had worked for me. Sadly, the shimmer was just too much for me, no matter how lightly I applied... wanted to love them-- and I do! Just can't actually *wear* them. Going up for swap in the hopes someone else can enjoy them!
