Wet n Wild Fergie Fall 2014 Limited Edition Fergie Beauty University Palette

So I recently got to know that Walgreens launches a signature palate every year at their stores. In 2014 they launched their Wet n Wild Fergie Limited Edition Fergie Kit, which i was lucky enough to get my hands on as soon as it launched. Ever since I got my hands on this beauty I have been addicted to it.

So this was initially selling for $30 at walgreen's but I got my hands on it from an online page for a mere Rs.2600 .. ! Which was the best thing to happen to me in a long while.

This kit is divided into 3 sections.

Left Section is the Glitter Cream Section with 29 choices

Right Section is the Lip Glosses with another 29 choices

Middle Section contains 72 Powder Eye shadows

 

 It was difficult getting the top open. The entire box feels cheaply made and I was considered I was going to break it before I even managed to get it open…but it was it was rather difficult to open up the first time...

Then up further the palate opens up left and right to show the glitter creams and lip gloss palates.

Over all for the price tag it looks gorgeous for something you would want to keep on your dresser, but it does occupy a lot of space.

Coming up to the colors, pigmentation and practical use of the palate now.

I felt that the gray/black shadows had very little variance. Usually, when they are sitting in the pan right next to each other, you can see a color difference. But, I couldn’t and in the swatches, there’s none whatsoever…

 I did random swatches and felt that most were fairly well pigmented, but most of them were super crumbly and it seemed like a lot of waste was being created. I swatched a few of the glitters and as with most Wet ‘n Wild cream shadows, or lip glosses if I were to use them for that, are practically impossible to apply…

After the shadow swatches, I did some gloss swatching. I found that all but a few were super sheer and these wouldn’t have put a lot of pigment on my lips. Several of them are colorless.

The most disappointing thing I ran across was that just after dabbing my lip brush twice into the glosses, I was hitting pan. So one, these pans didn’t have a lot of product and two, the glosses were so runny that I knew they wouldn’t stay on my lips but for only a short time before migrating either completely off my lips or, on my face around my mouth…

But apart from that I really like few of the colors and for the price that it comes with I dont mind the few disappointments. Over all I still say its great value for money. The thing i love the most in the palate are the Glitter creams that come in it.
