Wet N Wild Color Icon Bronzer Shade Ticket to Brazil Review

September 08, 2018


I feel like I need to start each of my posts with the same template where I would give you little updates on what's currently happening on my life and then we'd continue with the post of the day. I don't think it's a bad template considering this is still a personal blog to me and thus I would love to make all of you guys as my friends who I can talk to.

Even though sadly, we can't talk directly face to face :(

Anyway, I have made a lot of new purchases recently and one of them happens to be Wet N Wild Color Icon Bronzer in the shade Ticket To Brazil. Now, as I've told you guys before how I've been trying to fill in the gaps of my make-up collection, I manage to get myself a bronzer. Sadly tho, this product kinda disappoints me.


I first saw this product in one of Kathleen Lights' videos. Wet N Wild is such an affordable drugstore make-up with pretty decent quality and so, when this product came up as one of her favorite bronzer, I had my hopes set high. I had a hard time choosing which shade would suit my skin tone because they only have 3 shades; Reserve Your Cabana, Ticket To Brazil, and Bikini Contest. I tried to google the shades online but still it left me confused because I wasn't sure there would be a shade dark enough to bronze my skin. But then I followed Kathleen's words that said Ticket To Brazil would look good for people with darker skin tones, and so I chose that shade.

Unfortunately once the product came, my guts dropped to the floor because even just by looking at the pan I knew exactly it wouldn't be dark enough for me. I hate when brands don't have a wide variety of shades for darker skin tones. I was also surprised to know that it's a very shimmery bronzer! I hate shimmers on my face except for eyeshadow and highlighter :(


But it's pretty pigmented and easy to blend. It just doesn't work as I hoped it would. So instead of using it as a regular bronzer, I use it as an undereye topper or even as a highlighter since it's so shimmery, almost as shimmery as my Wet N Wild highlighter.

    1. Despite the shade range not being wide, I do like the formula as it's very easy to blend :)
