Wet n Wild #372S Within These Adobe Walls Megashield Lip Color SPF15 

Wet n Wild released a new line of lipsticks to their permanent range this past January called the Megashine Lip Color with a SPF of 15.

These lipsticks are promised to deliver sheer to moderate coverage and comfortable wear, while keeping the lips moisturized with it's buttery soft texture. (Contains: Vitamin E, Amino Acids, Avocado Oil, and Rice Bran Oil.)

There are fourteen (14) shades in the line-up: #360S Birthday Suit, #361S Peachy Keen, #362S Make Me Blush, #363S Arrest Me Copper, #364S Bare-ly Legal, #365S Ring Around The Rosy, #366S Pink Slip, #367S A Currant Affair, #368S That's Berry Beautiful, #369S Salsa Lessons, #370S Lolly Popstar, #371S It's A Girl, #372S Within These Adobe Walls and #373S Pink Cham-pagne.

I don't know if it was the dim lighting of my CVS, but none of the shades really appealed to my personal taste. Several of the shades have a frosty finish to them, and frost just isn't my thing.

I did manage to find a shade that I thought would be suitable for daily wear - Within These Adobe Walls, a warm, coral-pink. There is no shimmer or frost, just a lovely cream formula.

The consistency is very creamy and feels nice on the lips. The consistency reminds me a little bit of YSL Rouge Volupte Lipsticks, but less thin, and more moisturizing (RV's aren't moisturizing at all). Maybe a little more similar to MAC's Sheen Supreme Lipsticks. Some reviews I've come across compared these to the new Revlon Lip Butters, but I haven't tried them yet, so I can't compare.

#372S in particular has fantastic color payoff. The color is opaque in just a few swipes. I also love that it has a shiny finish.

The color reminds me a lot of YSL Tender Peach Rouge Volupte Lipstick, but with a stronger pink tone, and less peach.

It's a very pretty color, and livens up my face.

As an added bonus, these lipsticks have a SPF of 15, so they provide a little bit of sun protection.

Since I really like the formula of these, I might pick up a couple more shades. It's A Girl (A pretty pink) and Salsa Lessons (warm red) look like pretty shades.

You can find these at your local drugstore that sells Wet n Wild for $2.99.
