Normally I don’t pay attention to the Wet n’ Wild brand because of the previous bad experiences I had with the brand. But when I was at CVS the other day I saw two palettes, their Megaglo Contouring Palette, and the Wet n’ Wild Megaglo Illuminating Palette. The palettes were beautiful and rich in color, so I gave it another shot and purchased both palettes.
MEGAGLO CONTOUR PALETTE (Dulce De Leche palette) – The palette is large in size, and the colors are very pigmented. However, it is powdery and you get a lot of product on your brush in one swipe. I did notice on the back of the Megalglo Contour palette, Wet n’ Wild provided a map of how to contour your face with arrows pointing to where the contour shade color is supposed to be placed and arrows where the highlighter shade goes. This is great if you are just learning how to contouring your face. You don’t need a YouTube video playing next to you as you place the contour on your face. Just flip to the back of the contouring palette as reference.
MEGAGLO ILLUMINATING PALETTE (Catwalk Pink palette) – This is also a large palette. The colors in this palette are light gold, light pink, medium pink and medium gold. These colors are luminous, almost glittery, and easy to blend. Like the contour palette, this palette is also powdery, and it does not come with a face map on the back like the contour palette. Wet n’ Wild makes the claim that the colors can be worn together or alone. I do not think wearing one of the colors by itself works. They way the palette is set, it is meant to be blended. One color by itself does not give you the best payoff.
Overall, both of the palettes work beautifully, and together you get a lot of bang. The palettes are complimentary and deliver a flawlessly sculpted face in no time. They leave you looking your best, no matter what the occasion.
The Megaglo Contour and Illuminating Palettes retail for $4.99. They may be purchased at your local drugstore and www.wetnwildbeauty.com.

I saw both palettes but have yet to purchase them. I don’t mind powdery as long as they are pigmented and long lasting. Thank you for the review, Erica, will pick both up and give a try.

Thanks Shireen. If it helps, when I was researching the Wet n’ Wild products I noticed that others stated that even though the contour and highlighter were powdey they liked the results they got. Thanks for writing!

I don’t tend to use a lot of Wet n Wild products as they aren’t that easy to get hold of here in the UK. Both of these sound great for the price though so maybe I’ll be able to track them down online 🙂 x

Hi Hannah! I am so sorry to hear that Wet n’ Wild is hard to get. Let me see if I can help you. Go to amazon.co.uk. You can purchase the palettes at that site.
I wish you all the best!
