Review: Wet N Wild Megalast Lipstick in In the Flesh
It's not very often I purchase a makeup product with a specific event or purpose in mind. Usually I can just shop my large stash for whatever I need, but last week I bought Wet N Wild's Megalast lipstick in In the Flesh with the weekend in mind.
My reasonings were:
1) I am going to be going all day and night (at the Brock University open house) without being able to reapply my makeup. I need something extremely longwearing.
2) Since it is a university and I need to make a good impression, I need a natural shade of lipstick.
3) I have natural shades, but none last more than three hours on my lips.
4) I have longwearing lipsticks, but they are all shocking pink, magenta or orange.
5) I do not want to spend a lot for a lipstick I might not wear more than a few times.
6) I know that Wet N Wild Megalast lipsticks are longwearing and have some natural shades that would work on my skintone, plus they're about three dollars.
Here it is on the lips. Opaque in two swipes. It's more of a satin than a matte, and it's creamy-smooth. It applies with minimal tugging or dragging. It's got the same packaging problems as the rest of the line, so open the tube carefully. It lasts 8 hours on me without reapplying, including eating meals.

After looking up swatches on dupethat, I settled on In the Flesh.
In the Flesh is a warm brownish neutral pink. It looks more red in the above swatch, but on the lips it's very natural, just a little bit darker than my natural lip colour.

See? Nice and natural. I'm actually wearing it right now! I feel like this is my perfect natural lipstick! Another win for Wet N Wild!
