The BEST Wet-Look Eyeshadows (& ones to avoid!) Episode 2

[@welpppppppppppppp]

truly the queen of this eyeshadow sub genre 💓

[@LJMcCarty]

I love wet look eyeshadows on just bare lids. I have dark circles and my lids have it’s own shade and it just makes eye shadow less fussy for me. It’s like a controlled grunge look without much work. ❤️❤️

[@hazukiferris]

I appreciate how thorough you are with all the shadows. Instead of just swatching on your hand you take the time to put it on your eyes which probably takes a lot of time since removing glittery eyeshadow is a task 😂 and the shadows look so different on your hand vs your eyes, I can really get a sense of how they would really look♥️ ♥️ ♥️

[@irenerattray7742]

I am from South Africa , aged 76, and loved your videos for a couple of years. I enjoy your breakdown of the ingredients. I am into 'pop' and your description about less base colour giving more translucence is enlightening . I cannot identify so rely on your recommendation of products

[@jennameyer8813]

I am so excited that someone finally talked about the Stila Glisten and Glows!!! I swatched them at Ulta and have been wondering why no one has said anything about them, but the queen has now spoken!!!👑

[@MarianaGomez-zw2gg]

Because Stila eye glitters have a bad reputation of drying out after a month of being opened

[@haeleahdavis4219]

Amanda, your videos are the best! YOU are the best. You're my go-to person for makeup reviews. I appreciate how thorough your reviews are and all your demos are so helpful! Thanks for creating content like this, I'm here for it!

[@lasttofirst3335]

ok

[@alexilass4003]

I ran to Ulta and swatched the Stila eyeshadows today and no joke they are beyond STUNNING….. I don’t think I’ve ever had that like adoration and excitement for a product in a long time. Thanks Amanda, your recommendations have never failed me.

[@arielfeasts]

oh she dropping PHYSICS on us in this video! excited to write down some new shadows I need for my summer trip ✨

[@irenerattray7742]

Lol , yes PHYSICS most interesting. Amanda is the tops.

[@eleanorlauren8611]

Man if you created a line of these types of shadows I’d buy every single one!! You know the quality would be phenomenal. Thanks for these videos. Keep ‘em coming!

[@kristinatovar7192]

I been a huge fan of the wet pearl look for the past five years, thank you for this video!!!

[@sarahmccord7767]

Look into the Dose of Colors single shadow in the shade Caffeine Queen. It’s similar to Sephoras Choco Excess, but even more beautiful. Seriously stunning 😍

[@robertamandab7932]

I love cream shadows. So beautiful. Thanks for giving us the deets on which ones are the best.

[@cherylmaclean4349]

The Sephora Collection has some amazing wet-looking eyeshadows. Take a look, there are some other amazing ones such as The Milky Way, To the Moon and Back, and First Light.

[@rockcriedout7679]

This was the follow up that I didn't realise I needed! I've watched your last one like a dozen times. So excited to watch this in bed tonight 😎

[@welpppppppppppppp]

i feel like the stila glisten and glows existed before but we were all in glitter topper mode and didn’t care about them? but maybe they redid them because i can remember people saying the satin ones weren’t as good. oh how the turntables.

[@victoria6471]

I'm obsessed with that smokey eye you did with the Dior palette! What a total vixen

[@Meow-Meow501]

You turned me on to Space Cowboy last year and I am in love. Ordering Lithium & Solstice! ❤️

[@tippytoeluv]

Thank God for you!! A girl after my own heart💕 We want reflection not glitter lol. Finally someone that has broken down all the wet looking shadows I’ve been eyeing and some I own. This is sooo good thank you, seriously.

[@LaJessChelle]

Ah! I’m excited! My fingers are poised to click links and fill my Sephora loves list! 😉 As a stay-at-home mama, I try to wear sparkle on my eyes as often as possible. 😅✨

[@deepachangrakrishnan9828]

I usually end up getting most of the products you mention. Was waiting for this video. It’s absolutely amazing.

[@gigi4809]

I don’t know if anyones asked or said but your hair looks AMAZING!!! Do you think you could do a tutorial??

[@dokidash7052]

An alternative to Urban Decay's Solstice is Revlon's Rose in those eyeshadow sticks they released last year. THEY'RE SO GOOD.

[@tonyasullivan1164]

I love any video you do with all the sparkly swatches you have such a calming voice

[@christinamoller5742]

I grabbed the Sephora Collection in Demanding, which is another great wet-looking shadow you might check out. It had great staying-power too! ❤️

[@aviianna]

I ordered a sample from the brand site of the rituele de fille eye gloss In serpent to try (I mentioned in my order that you sent me). I did not expect to love that shadow as much as I do. I feel SOOO ALLURING AND SEDUCTIVE in that shade. It’s unlike anything I own.

[@rebeccasutton1596]

Me too!

[@winonamama8358]

the fenty beauty diamond bomb highlighter is a great wet looking translucent multitasker!

[@Michelle-up2cv]

UM I CAN’T STOP STARING AT YOUR HAIR, hair tutorial please!!!

[@syaninditanamara1218]

Pleaseeee do a ranking of all your wet look eyeshadows someday!!

[@wendyraye]

I KNEW Urban Decay Cowboy would be on this. I actually bought it for half off during Ulta sale but my daughter hijacked it, so I got Colourpop Ritz - dead on dupe like you said!

[@haenakwon9730]

I recently bought some Ulta shadows on sale as per your recommendations and they really are so wet looking! I got the matte cream shadow in Game over and the bouncy eyeshadows Champagne sorbet and Italian ice. I tried layering the matte shadow under the bouncy shadows but it seemed to dull the shine just a little bit for me. I like wearing it on its own though, very natural looking. Champagne sorbet in particular brightens up my whole face so much ^^

[@AmandaZ]

So glad you are enjoying them!!! I like to use the matte cream shadow just in the crease and keep the lid bare to retain the shine 😍

[@haenakwon9730]

@@AmandaZ Ohh I see that makes sense~ I will try doing that. Great video btw, the Stila glisten and glows look stunning 😊

[@rockcriedout7679]

So devo we can't get Ulta products in Australia 😭

[@87HMoore]

@@rockcriedout7679 or England! I feel your pain!

[@learp17]

I’m now obsessed with cream products thanks to you and I love it! I just ordered Space Cowboy, it’s coming tomorrow - can’t wait to start playing with it!

[@TheAlinamj]

Hello Amanda! Thank you for the wonderful review! I recommend you to try also the Bobbi Brown Luxe Eyeshadow in the shades : Moonstone and Sun Flare, they are absolutely stunning and reflect light in a flattering way on the eyes. 😊

[@eloisa246]

you are my patron saint of eyeshadows 🙏

[@vanessadodd5797]

I just purchased the Stila shadow in Kitten Kaleidoscope & omg this is so pretty! I love it as a wash of color. I want to get Grace and Playa next 😏

[@maryclebeau]

You are so very knowledgeable and I like the way you explain in details. It helps your listeners to fully understand the whys, how etc. I look at many content creators and they just say why they like a certain product and then try it on or they show you how to put it on. But I am interested in the details and why certain products work the way they do etc. I thank you for taking your time in your knowledge and sharing your insights. 😊

[@joeleecarmichael8962]

Hi, Amanda! I'd love to get your opinion on the new Flower Beauty Chrome Crush Shadows, as well as their new liquid highlighter. They seem very Hourglass and CT inspired. Love your reviews!

[@melissabridge5687]

I have watched this video at least 3 times in the last 24 hours. I bought UD Solsitice last night after going to Ulta “just for” the new Clinique black honey lipgloss… I am 55 years old and not ready to be boring….😜 I used LM Au Naturel on my lids and crease. Then Solstice ON the center lid… OMG!!! I love this color. Thank you!

[@KateKosmo]

Colourpop supershock in lightening bug is EXTREMELY reflective & tge texture is different from all other shupershocks. It's literally like mirrored glass but in goldish/copper color. It's insane & a must have.

[@flanamom]

So excited for this! I have over a hundred eyeshadow palettes and countless singles, but my very favorite, the one I reach for before all others, is my Ulta cream shadow, especially the shades Vinyl, Pretty in Pink, and Game Over. A one and done look, or a full eye using these as a base, is my favorite, easy look.

[@fuzzboo]

This is the sort of content I’m living for

[@nausikaaleukolenos]

The problem I have with this kind of product is that they appear glossy only under direct light. Otherwise, the wet effect is gone but the microglitters are still visible and they appear just like chunky particles. Ritz does that, for example. I wonder if the ones with a finer texture are better in this respect?

[@nausikaaleukolenos]

@R.C. I should definitely try them... Unfortunately the shade that I really want is Space Cowboy and I think it's not available anymore here in Europe, not even online😕

[@Hello-mv3xs]

@@nausikaaleukolenos I don’t know if you’ve already managed to get it but Space Cowboy is available in Ireland! Maybe you could ship it from here to where you are? :)

[@pronitabarua6241]

I understand what you mean but you have to understand that every eyeshadow and formula is different. If you are talking about Ritz then it has chunky glitters but they are very fine. Ritz is not may favourite because I find the colour is very sheer and not pigmented. However if you want the wet look ones, then you should try Sephora metal effect shade shock choc, Charlotte tillbury - oyster pearl, urban decay - lithium, huda empowered pallete, Natasha Denona plattes they are wet looking, and glitters are very fine yet looks creamy and very pigmented.

[@donnataylor7422]

Ooh interesting. Totally snubbed Ulta eyeshadow, going to get some this week, thank you Amanda and subscribers.

[@katiebonau6578]

I love the Kokie cosmetics liquid eyeshadows, they aren’t particularly wet looking but I think you would like them :)

[@AntyTiff]

Hi Amanda. Just wanted to let you know that I enjoy your videos. I enjoy listening to you, and I really really appreciate your close-ups.

[@corinarose_]

I love this video it was so well done and helpful + you can see that she was super passionate about these eyeshadows as well

[@elizabethjean2709]

loved the first video. tbh you can never have enough of these shades.

Another great video! I saw a few I'm very interested in. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your videos. ❤

[@themindsweeper5956]

I'm so excited you uploaded this video! I found your chanel last week because of your wet eyeshadow video from last year and now you've uploaded another one!!! 😍 You're so beautiful!

[@kristinj6298]

Amanda, thank you for your thoughtful research! Would love to hear your thoughts on the Kiko Milano high reflect ones. Yes to the Mariah Leonard shout out, you are both so glam yet approachable. You may also really enjoy Karima McKimmie's take. She has a beautiful one and done video.

[@franp7215]

Thank you for this video, Amanda! I appreciate all your hard work!..so I went out and got Lithium, and yes she is gorgeous! I wore it to work yesterday and a co-worker just stopped me mid-sentence and said, “What is on your eyes? It looks so glistening! Like water.”…. And I thought, “Yes, Amanda! Come through!”

Y'all PLEASE try JD Glow 'Unexpected'. That's the most wet looking gorgeous shifting shadow and the texture is a dream. It's also a huge pan and only $8 sth.

[@jessicaashton6446]

I love these videos. The most satisfying and high quality swatches.

[@NamiBurger]

The only eyeshadows i ever use continuously (which are mentioned) are Space Cowboy and Choco Excess. I'm super low maintanence with my makeup but these do a whole lot for me. Sometimes if i am feeling for something extra lux though i will use my Dior quad in Mitzah, but thats for really special occasions. Choco Excess is my everyday go-to.

[@antonisantoniou4883]

great video! my fav youtuber! we need a part 3 with indie brands eyeshadows please :) that would be nice!

This video was glorious, especially the physics reference!! Love hearing about new brands and your swatches were incredible.

I haven't gotten them yet, but I am wondering about the Phytosurgence "Weathered Woods" collection. They look beautiful in videos I have seen.

[@maxineworthy6055]

I only have oxidized olive and it is beautiful but it’s not super shiny or wet. More satin.

[@patsyroyal]

good to know. I was wondering about the amount of shine.

[@dafnagode6435]

Loveeee this concept. If you like the Tom Ford shadows, you'd like the Auric ones I think.

[@ghewett1991]

Hi Amanda! if you still have the old Kosas 10 second eye shadow in Globe (or even the reformulation) could you show us how it looks swatched next to Stila Oasis? Thank you 🙏

[@kohk79]

I’ve been trying to get KVD Flash Storm for so long, but I can never find it! 😩 Electro Bolt, to me, is the most stunning and multidimensional, but Idk how wet it looks in comparison to the other shades. Anyway, thanks for the recs!

If any of your cream products try out the best thing you can do is get Inglot Duraline Eyeliner sealant. It revives any dried out cream product that I’ve ever used it in without changing the formula.
