WET N WILD: STITCH COLLECTION | FULL COLLECTION REVIEW & SWATCHES

Prepare yourself for another post in our Feeling Pretty series...

I'm so excited to talk about the beautiful, bright Wet n Wild Stich Collection! This collection originally released back in June, and the good news is that everything is still available to purchase!

Between Kaitlyn and I, we have the entire collection. When we first heard it was coming out, we were ridiculously excited and immediately went on the hunt for it...only to find absolutely nothing. We checked multiple stores in different cities and still cam up empty-handed. So naturally, we turned to Amazon and ordered almost the entire collection there instead (I'll mention availability again at the end of the post).


The packaging across this whole collection is adorable. Wet n Wild really did such a great job with the design details. Lilo & Stitch was one of my favorite movies growing up, and honestly...I still love it as an adult. This collection hit me right in the childhood nostalgia. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ohana:

This palette was the item I was most excited about.

The packaging is super cute, and the shades inside are just as pretty. The palette does contain one face pigment that isn't eye safe, so just keep that in mind when using it.

"Ohana means family" has always been one of my favorite quotes from the movie, so I loved that they named the palette Ohana. The embossed designs in the shadows are adorable — I'm going to be sad when they disappear from use.

It includes 15 shades in matte, shimmer, and glitter finishes — a mix of neutrals and bright pops of color. The shadows are pigmented, soft, and blend easily. I did experience some kickback in the pan and a bit of fallout during application.

 The Ohana Shadow Palette is on the Wet n Wild website, and Wet n Wild Stitch Ohana Shadow Palette For Eye and Face on Amazon.

Hula Honey:

This quad face palette includes two highlighters and two bronzers for a sun-kissed glow.

The powders feel smooth and glide nicely over the skin. They're very pigmented — especially the bronzers — so a light hand is definitely recommended.

I will say, I was a little disappointed that the lightest bronzer still runs too warm for my skin tone, so I mainly stick to the highlighters. My favorite is the bottom right shade — it looks so pretty on the skin.

Top left — warm medium brown with yellow hue

Top right — warm medium brown with gold hue shimmer

Bottom right — cool pale tan with a gold hue shimmer

Catchin' Waves:

The Stitch sponge and surfboard cleaning mat are adorable. Honestly, the sponge is almost too cute to use.

The sponge is soft, expands when damp, and blends foundation well — though it does absorb a bit of product. The surfboard cleaning mat works great for smaller brushes, but it feels awkward trying to clean larger brushes on such a skinny surface.

Chillin':

These glosses are high-shine, hydrating, and non-sticky. Since they're lip oils, the color payoff is sheerer on the lips than in the tube.

They feels smooth, lightweight, and have a pretty shimmer (though it's hard to see in photos). All three scents are fruity, and Got The Scoop and Let's Rock are surprisingly pigmented for lip oils.

The Chillin' Wet Lip Oil Gloss is on the Wet n Wild website, and Wet n Wild Disney Lilo and Stitch Chillin' Wet Lip Oil Lip Gloss is on Amazon.

Surf's Up:


Cool clear iridescent shimmer with blue-purple hue. Smells like pineapple and coconut. 


Got The Scoop:


Cool shimmer rose pink. Smells like strawberry Starbursts and coconut.


Let's Rock:


Warm shimmer red. Smells like cherry and coconut.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No Bad Days:

This setting mist gives the skin a healthy glow. The spray is powerful — I definitely recommend holding it almost arm's length away when applying.

It sprays evenly without streaking and has a light coconut scent that smells really nice.

I have combination skin (oily T-zone), and I didn't notice it making my skin oilier faster —which hydrating mists sometimes do. My oils came through at about the normal rate.

Care Free:

These eyeliners are very pigmented, creamy, and smooth. The tips are small, so they're easy to apply without much pressure.

The downside? They're stubborn to remove. Even with makeup remover, it took a lot of scrubbing — my skin was pretty red afterward. The upside to that, though, is that they absolutely do not budge while wearing them.

Wild Energy Black:


Blue Punch Buggy:

Flying High:

The thin applicator makes it easy to reach lower lashes. It lengthens and separates well but isn't very volumizing. 

It glides on smoothly and doesn't clump. 

The Flying High Waterproof Mascara is on the Wet n Wild website, and Wet n Wild Disney Lilo and Stitch Waterproof Mascara Volumizes and Lengthens Flying High is on Amazon.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Life's A Beach:

This coconut-scented scrub exfoliates well and leaves skin feeling softer. The little scoop inside is adorable. 

Even though it's marketed for body, face, and lips — I wouldn't recommend using it on the lips. It leaves an unpleasant chemical aftertaste after rinsing. 

The Life's A Beach Exfoliating Multi-Scrub is on the Wet n Wild website and Wet n Wild Disney Lilo and Stitch Exfoliating Body Scrub, Multi-Scrub Life's A Beach.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Overall, I love most items in the Stitch Collection. It's colorful, nostalgic, and fun — especially if you're a Lilo & Stitch fan.

The two items missing from Amazon when it was ordered were the Experiment 626 Makeup Brush Set and the Soakin' Up Rays Body Luminizer, but the rest of the collection is available there if you're trying to track it down.
