Post Punk Kitchen Forum

I thought it was time to give this company their own thread, since it recently came out that a lot of their stuff is vegan.

So what have you tried?

I tried the ultimate match foundation because my Urban Decay bottle is almost gone. And...it totally sucks! I put it on with a brush and all it does is fill up my (kind of big) pores, so it looks like I have dots of makeup all over my face if you look close enough. It doesn't blend very well or cover much. It also leaves my brush super dirty looking after only one use. I made it a point to try it this morning with a freshly cleaned and dried brush, cleaned and moisturized skin, to make sure it wasn't operator error, and I still had the same problems. F!

Oh that sucks, it was on my list to try. They have another foundation (liquid) that is vegan I was going to try. Their mega length mascara is good for more natural looking lashes.

I have used a few of their mascaras and the high shine tube lip gloss. Everything was decent and for the price the lip gloss is good. It is not goopy or nasty tasting.

I used to use thier eye pencils in high school. very cheap. used to have to use a lighter to heat it up to work. haha anybody else use to have to do that?

I heard that thier quality got a little better, but i remember it being pretty bad.

Are all of the products vegan or just some? I need a new concealer and mascara.

yes!!!

I just had to soften them with my finger. There was a nude lip pencil that I liked that supposedly rivaled m.a.c.

I also used to love their nail polishes, but I don't know if they're vegan.

I keep reading different things regarding their nail polish, does anyone know for sure?

The ones I have are vegan! I think they all are? I only have glitters, so I can't comment on quality, but I keep hearing that they're as good as high-end stuff

I googled it and found a site called Veggie Beauty, there's a post listing vegan products and she says all their polish is!

Thanks for posting that, Kitteh! I recently bought four mega last lip colors thinking the whole line was vegan but then Googled it and couldn't find any current info. Now I know that I did ok, and the lipstick really does last.

YES

I got some mega last lip color. It looks really good but I had an allergic reaction to it...but I don't think it was really the lipstick's fault since I've had the exact same reaction to two other lip things (different brands) recently. And a reaction to concealer I've been using for a while (also not wet'n'wild) My face looks horrible right now.

I have the megaplump mascara and I love it. It's not crazy or dramatic, but it looks good, doesn't clump or flake and costs like $4.

This morning I got:

Megaglo Illuminating Powder in 346 Strike a Pose Rose & Starlight Bronze (I really like this as a cheek color, too pink for an all over bronzer)
Mega Liner Liquid Eyeliner in brown (not a fan of the applicator but the product itself is ok)
MegaLast Retractable Eyeliner in black (haven`t tried this one yet)
Icon Shimmer Pencil in copper (goes on really nice, no need for a lighter!)
Mega Volume Mascara in extra black (not a huge fan, doesn't coat well and doesn't curl lashes at all)[[/list]

This looks helpful: http://veggiebeauty.com/?page_id-106
hmm, it's not linking directly to the page on wet n' wild, but there list of vegan w n' w products on the sight.

I linked to her website a few posts up, it seems to cover most of their products.

Oh, sorry kitteh, I totally missed your links. Thanks! I'm off to buy makeup right now!!!!!!

No worries, Rhizzo! I can only find WnW online here in Aus and none of the stores sell the nail polish :/

My first post on the PPK was actually about this, in the mascara thread. Here's what Wet N Wild sent me:

All Mascaras"

BUUUUUT a caveat here, this list was sent to me on Feb 22 of this year. By Feb 22nd Wet N Wild had already released some new products, including a water proof version of my favorite mascara (the megalength.) Someone from the mascara thread bought the waterproof megalength, only to discover beeswax, which means not all their mascaras are vegan, despite what this letter says. So you know, basic guideline list provided, but still, homework.

All the polishes currently out look OK per this list, because it has the Megalast and the Wild Shine lines, which are all they're carrying now. I checked my bottles from the discontinued Crave line that is still available in some stores, and it looked vegan (no carmine, guanine, gelatin, silk, or pearl.)

I'd suggest double checking ingredient lists for the limited edition collections, like the Bloom spring collection

and the limited edition Wild Shine display

Kitteh, facebook message me if there are any Wet N Wilds you really want, if I can find them I'll mail them to you.

i've been buying wet 'n wild makeup lately like some kind of obsessive hoarder. i love their megalast lippies, and the nail polish is pretty good, too. walgreens has a sale on a lot of the 99¢ products-- i think they're 69¢ until may. i picked up a couple of the wild shine polishes. i also love the glassy gloss lip gloss-- it looks like they're all vegan and the color is quite good. plus, they smell like pineapple, which is pretty awesome.

wicked helpful list! thanks for posting!

Bump.

Over the weekend I bought a few of the color icon shadows and a color icon trio and I am really impressed with the quality. I almost like these shadows as much as my UD ones. They go on pretty buttery and have a nice shimmer to them. I bought Nutty, Envy and the trio Walking on Eggshells.

I have used the MegaLiner liquid eyeliner in black for years and years and years. It's one of the cheapest liquid liners out there, and even having tried other more expensive ones I still like it best because it is very thick and black. It also doesn't really smudge/flake unless you rub your eyes (and I think any non-waterproof liner would in that instance). I don't think they sell it in the UK because when I lived over there I couldn't find it anywhere, so when i went to the US to visit I seriously brought back 10 tubes of the stuff. The applicator it comes with is pretty awkward, but I'm so used to it by now that I'm able to use it without painting giant black lines across my face.

I love the WnW liquid liner, but not the waterproof, the regular. I actually like the skinny brush with the regular one, it works better for me than any other type of liner. I tried the $1 Elf liquid liner and didn't like it very much. I prefer the WnW to liners I have from Urban Decay and Zuzu Luxe too. WnW is the best.

I would buy it in bulk too if I didn't have regular access to it. I completely understand.

Fantasy Maker kits spotted at Winners , 10$ get you a jumbo pencil , eye shadow compact with either 8 or 10 shades (I forget) , lipstick , gloss and nail polish. Not sure why I didn't grip one cause the eye shadows are glittery awesome.
