I've been looking for the Wet n Wild Ombre Blushes ($4.99) ever since I heard about them launching at Target recently. But the local Target in my small town is always behind when it comes to putting out new merchandise, so I haven't had much luck. This past weekend, we headed down near NYC for some shopping and ended up at a store that was right near a Target. I ducked in quickly to see if they had the blushes and they did! So I wanted to get a review/first impressions post up quickly because I know a lot of you have told me that you're really interested in these. So let's take a look...
Packaging-wise, these are really pretty...Wet n Wild has redesigned their products to have a more modern feel and I really like the simplicity of the sleek black compacts. I also like being able to see the shades right through the top, it makes it easy to grab the product I'm looking for out of my makeup drawer.The Princess Daiquiries is a peachy pink shade.

Also, they looked shimmery in the pan but it was just an overspray and the finish looked more matte and a bit chalky on my skin.
Overall, I'm sad that these were a bit of a flop for me because they looked so pretty! I'll definitely have to check out the NYX Ombre Blushes and see if those work out better for me. Also, if you're looking for a great ombre blush, Hard Candy makes a great one, available here.
If you'd like to try the new Wet n Wild Ombre Blushes they are available now at Target.
