Today's review is featuring a drugstore gem: Wet N' Wild Megalast Lipstick. I am absolutely in love with these. They are cheap, but have the quality is just beyond my expectations. These lipsticks are semi-matte and are very very pigmented.

First Look
Wet N' Wild Megalast Lipsticks are just great. They have an exceptional pigmentation. If you think their Silk Finish Lipsticks are good, you'll like these even more. I think these easily fall in the top 5 best drugstore lipsticks out there. They are just phenomenal.

Quality
These lipsticks are opaque -- first-swipe-type opaque; they are also creamy so I didn't have any problem applying it. They remind me of the L'Oreal Infallible Le Rouge. Although the main difference is the staying power. I find the Wet N' Wild Megalast Lipsticks last for at least 4 hours before fading, while the L'Oreal Infallible Le Rouge lasts up to 5 hours (for me) before it starts to fade. They are fragrance and taste-free so I think most people will like these.

Packaging
I don't think there's a lot of difference between these lipsticks and the Silk Finish Lipstick -- it's plastic, cheap, and you have to be careful when replacing the cap. Although the black color was a nice touch and is definitely an upgrade from their Silk Finish. They still don't have the name of the shade on the bottom of the tube, but it does have the numbers.
Overall
If you don't mind the cheap packaging (like me), I will definitely give these lipsticks a shot. They have 20 different shades so I'm sure you'll find at least one that suits your taste. They are available in most drugstores like CVS, Walgreens, or RiteAid. If you're looking for a cheap lipstick, I absolutely recommend these.
