Sparkle ‘Til Morning with Wet ‘n’ Wild

Wet ‘n’ Wild Sparkle ‘Til Morning Eyeshadow Palette ($4.99 for 0.30 oz.) contains eight eyeshadows, and it’s a limited edition holiday palette. I found mine at CVS about two weeks ago, and there were only two in the display–both had one eyeshadow broken. I did my best to clean it up and re-press the broken eyeshadow, but you can definitely see that about half was not salvageable.

The first shade is a pale yellowed gold with a frosted sheen. It had good color payoff, and it was soft, smooth, and not powdery when used. Guerlain Calligraphy is similar. Cinderella Charming is more frosted but close in color. Buxom Poodle is close–more metallic. Giorgio Armani #18 is yellower. Tarina Tarantino Wonderful is yellower, less shimmer. MAC Femme-Fi is lighter.

The second shade is a soft copper with a subtle frost finish. It had solid pigmentation and applied very smoothly. Le Metier de Beaute Goldstone is brighter, more golden. Bare Minerals Golden Iris is less orange.

The third shade is a medium-dark copper with a frosted finish. The color payoff was excellent, and it was a dream to work with; very soft, smooth, and buttery. Tarina Tarantino Dreamy is very comparable–a hair darker. MAC Brash has a stronger red undertone. MAC Double Feature 8M is similar.

The fourth shade is a blue-teal with a subtle golden shimmer-sheen. The pigmentation was decent to good, but this shade was a little powdery. I felt like I needed to layer in order to maintain the color intensity on the lid as seen in the pan. MAC Fashion Circuit is darker. Maybelline Edgy Emerald is similar, a touch greener. NYX Seafoam Green is greener. MAC Shimmermoss is a smidgen darker.

The fifth shade is a warm champagne-shimmered beige with a frosted, metallic finish. It had lovely color payoff and applied smoothly and evenly. Dior Fairy Golds is pinker. Giorgio Armani #1 Madreperla is lighter. NARS Delphes is comparable.

The sixth shade is an orange-copper with a sparkly, frosted finish. This one did have some powderiness/looseness such that it didn’t bind together completely. It’s a mix of the second and third shades within this palette, in case it seemed familiar! Urban Decay Penny Lane is a little softer. Guerlain Calligraphy is more orange. Tarina Tarantino Amber is comparable. Tarina Tarantino Wonderful is very similar. NARS Isolde is darker, more orange. theBalm Manic Maribel is rather close. I think you get the picture–there are a ton of shades that are comparable to this one! (Nearly every brand seems to have its version, which isn’t a bad thing, but you might have something like it already!)

The seventh shade is a soft, golden medium brown with a satiny sheen. It was a touch powdery, but it had good color payoff. Wet ‘n’ Wild Comfort Zone had a shade that seemed similar, but it’s darker and browner–less orange tones. Cinderella Drizella is more shimmery. Dior Golden Savannah is darker.

The eighth shade is a deep, dark brown with warm red undertones and a sparkling of burgundy shimmer over a pearly finish. It had excellent color payoff, and it was easy to use on the eye. Wet ‘n’ Wild Comfort Zone, again, had something similar but not quite–it’s cooler-toned, more of a black-burgundy. MAC Carbonized is more frosted. Urban Decay Busted is more burgundy.

Overall, Sparkle ‘Til Morning is a lovely palette, and at the price point, easily forgiven for being a little powdery in places.  All in all, the pigmentation was true-to-pan across the board, and all of the shades were soft and easily blended during application.  When I wore the palette to test the wear, they lasted for eight hours without fading or creasing over a primer, and then seven hours without creasing but noticeable fading without a primer.

You are lucky to even snatch one…none of the CVS in my neighborhood have any of the new versions. It is almost as though CVS is going to discontinue selling Milani and Wet and Wild. It looks like Wet and Wild is trying to be the cheaper version of Urban Decay in terms of colors….doing good job. Do you re- swatch those colors to do the comparison or you just use your eye?

I wish the LE Wet n Wild palettes were easier to find in my area, or that they’d get stocked online somewhere, like drugstore.com. I think for the price, you really can’t go wrong. I personally love all these shades and while I do have dupes for many of them, I still would’ve picked this up. I do find these shadows crumble SO easily, though.

I picked up mine from Kmart. I got Drinking A Glass Of Shine and Sparkle Til Morning. The other one was there but it was too cool for me, and I can’t remember the name of it. They had it mixed in with their regular palettes.

I actually passed this by the other day. Now after your review, I’m gonna try to get it. Seeing the shades swatched is so helpful. Love the teal and champagne especially.

I bought this pallete thinking I would resell it and decided to swatch and fell in love! I have a deeper skin tone and these look amazing on my eyes! I love Wet N Wild but I wish they would come out with some 8 pans with at least two mattes in the midst of all those shimmer, frosts, and satins.

Why must all of WnW LE products come out in the US only ALL THE TIME! >___<

I can only find it online through ebay for $17 Plus $6 shipping…. This and the Drinking A Glass of Shine (I Heart Matte Palette) I so want to get.

I have this and adore it. It’s fantastic and will work well year-round, too.

Please do more drugstore product reviews! I see you do Revlon and Milani fairly frequently, but those are the only brands I really see a lot from you on. I would love to see what you think of more CoverGirl, Almay, Maybelline, and L’Oreal products. Not everyone who reads your blog has unlimited disposable income, though we all wish we did 😉

I really like this palette out of the other ltd holiday ones, but I feel like I already have similar neutral shades. I like the pop of teal though. *_* Hmmm…
