Wet n Wild Mega Last Lipsticks

I have been on the search to find the perfect 'nude' lipstick for some time now. Awhile ago, thinking that I needed a literal 'nude' colour I purchased MAC's myth - an ULTIMATE nude lipstick.

Myth completely mutes out my lips and makes me look washed out. The colour is almost concealer like and I find that it does not work with my skin tone very well unless I apply some type of a gloss over it.

After thinking more about what I was looking for as a 'nude' lip color- I realized I wanted a lipstick that was closer to my natural  lip colour. 

After searching, I have finally found something that I am content with- WetnWild's MEGA LAST® LIP COLOR. I picked up 2 colors (Rose Bud 904B and In the Flesh 912C) from Zellers which is the only place I know that sells WnW cosmetics in Canada.

In the states these lipsticks retail for $2.99. Living in Canada, I had to pay $3.99CAD. Even for that extra dollar I would say that these lip sticks are worth the price. 

These colors are the perfect neutral shades. They are matte which I love and they glide on quite smoothly. I typically wear a lip balm underneath so they don't feel drying whatsoever.

Rose bud is a slightly more pink color which matches the natural pigmentation of my lips quite well.

In the Flesh is a bit more warm with a brown undertone to it. Out of the two, I would say I like this one the most!

Overall, I'm pretty impressed with these lip sticks. The only downside I would say involves the packaging. The actual name is not on the lip stick itself. There is only the numbering system which is on the bottom of the tube. Other than that, I am looking forward to trying some other Wet n Wild cosmetics!
