(WHEW, I had big plans to get this up before Halloween and then I’ve been seeing so many movies in theaters and Halloween weekend took me down!! It’s been fun and maybe someday I’ll stop apologizing for getting posts up late).
HAPPY HALLOWEEN, Y’ALL. I absolutely love this time of year. Fall is my favorite season, and even though it’s been much warmer than I would like, it’s still felt so cozy overall. It’s my first year in this new neighborhood with our new place and everyone on the street has gone all out in decorating for Halloween and we handed out candy for the neighborhood kids and it’s the closest thing to “Stars Hollow” I’ll get here in Chicago. It’s also my very favorite season for makeup and nail polish – most especially when brands actually decide to do Halloween specific releases. It doesn’t happen often, so I make sure to appreciate them when we do. AND OH WE ARE APPRECIATING THIS YEAR.
The brand who has always been on the forefront of releasing these wanted Halloween themed sets has been Wet N Wild, and as mentioned they’ve continued TREATING us this year. They did drop another edition of their usual Fantasy Makers collection (post also on the way) but then decided that wasn’t enough and released even more!! Absolutely no TRICK here (sorry).
So in this first post we’ll be looking at their ‘Trick or Treat’ collection. It’s only fitting that this collection is in collaboration with Hersey’s to feature a variety of candy-inspired products from Hersey’s, Reese’s, Jolly Ranchers and Twizzlers. We have face products, an eyeshadow palette and a whole smattering of lip products. I have everything except for one lip balm (I can’t explain why I exercised self control for that one product).
I know I’m posting past Halloween itself but most of these products are just fun little neutrals and candy doesn’t stop after the season. I’m eating it all year long after all. So let’s get on into the swatches already!
