Wet n Wild Vegan List

Wet n Wild Vegan List

 

See end of post for changelog.

There’s an FAQ link (located in the site footer) on the Wet n Wild (WnW) site that includes one question about vegan WnW products. The site promises that they are working towards making all of their products vegan in the future before beginning with the list of products that are vegan.

While WnW specifies which products contain carmine, they do not account for beeswax and lanolin. Quite a few so-called vegan products on the list contain one or both of these ingredients.

Don’t be discouraged. There are still a ton of vegan products by Wet n Wild! It’s great that there’s another easy to find animal-free products on the market to make veganism more accessible. I appreciate that WnW has gone out of their way and listed which products contain carmine, because it is useful. You just need to be aware that some products contain other animal-derived ingredients.

The list is now easier to find than in the past, and finally updated so we have a better idea of what’s truly vegan.

Taking the List with You

I keep my version of the list on Evernote so that I always have it with me on my phone. I’ve gone further, arranging the list numerically and using strikethrough on the products lines that aren’t vegan, like the Silk Finish Lipsticks, for ease of use.

I definitely recommend using a service like Evernote or Google Drive to access your vegan lists. It’s super helpful, easy to organize and immediately available to all your devices.

Of course, you can also simply print out the list.

Wet n Wild Vegan Products

I hadn’t intended to write up a vegan list for WnW, but realized the original was disorganized and inaccurate, depending on one’s perspective. Only the item numbers below should be carmine, beeswax, and lanolin free.

You can find the original vegan list on the Wet n Wild FAQ.

Unconfirmed Vegan Products

Below you’ll find products that are most likely vegan, but have not officially confirmed. Use your personal judgment when purchasing. Even though I’m positive these are vegan, they have yet to show up on the company’s vegan list.

Main Product Line

  • 315B-317B: ColorIcon Ombre Blush [all shades]
  • 392A, 393A, 395A: Wet n Wild Coloricon 5-Pan Eyeshadow Palettes [3 out of 5 palettes]
  • 980A: Under the Sheets 25 Makeup Remover Towelettes
  • C150A: MAX Volume Plus Mascara

2016 Reformulated MegaSlicks Lip Gloss

I have had a very difficult time checking each shade. The good news is that are a few vegan shades still. The WNW FAQ lists the shades 552B & 558B as not vegan, but it looks like there a lot more that aren’t due to formulation.

2016 Reformulated 325B-329B ColorIcon Blush

In the past, the ColorIcon Blusher had a couple of vegan shades (832E Heather Silk + 833E Mellow Wine). However, all of the newly reformulated 2016 blushes list carmine as the ingredients, so I’m not sure if the old carmine-free shades are still vegan-friendly. Over the year Wet n Wild has changed their labeling so that certain shades that include carmine state will list it in the ingredients. For example, the ColorIcon 5 pan Eyeshadow Palettes have some shades that list carmine, while others do not (e.g., The Naked Truth does not list carmine in its ingredients and is vegan-friendly, whereas Art in the Streets lists carmine).

If anyone has had confirmation that any of the new blushes are vegan-friendly, please let me know.

Wet n Wild Product Lines Containing Animal-Derived Ingredients

Below is a list of the product lines that were stated to be vegan yet contain animal derived ingredients, regardless of whether they contain carmine or not. There’s nothing worse than buying a product, only to find the one ingredient you were trying to avoid was there all along.

Please keep in mind that there could be other hidden ingredients. Try contacting Wet n Wild directly if you are unsure about a product. If you feel really uncomfortable, don’t buy it.

I noticed that the MegaLast Liquid Lip Color contains synthetic beeswax. It could be that some of the other products containing beeswax may in fact be synthetic, but until there is a change on the ingredients listing, or I know for sure, I’m listing them all here.

Changelog:

7/1/2016: WNW has updated their vegan list! Now we have a better idea what is vegan, although there are still a few products that I’m convinced are vegan unaccounted for.

1/28/2016: WNW has done a huge major overhaul to a significant portion of their product lines, as well as adding tons of new products and discontinuing old favorites. I have product numbers for some of the new items, but not everything. It also appears that the Fergie CenterStage line has been discontinued, but some products have been moved to main line, like the eyeshadow primer. I need to track down all of the moved products, confirm they are still vegan friendly, before adding them to the site. I am trying to update this list as quickly and thoroughly as possible, but it is a process that will likely take months. Thank you for your understanding.

Update 2/26/2015: Moved MegaSlicks Lip Gloss 562B Cherry Glaze to the vegan list and added additional item numbers to the vegan mascara list. Updated Unconfirmed list with likely vegan contenders from the new 2015 product additions, including those from Walgreens and Wal-Mart. If a new 2015 product does not appear on any list below, it definitely contains lanolin, beeswax and/or carmine.

1/12/2014:I have updated the list with an unconfirmed category. This includes Wet n Wild products that are likely to be vegan, but have yet to be confirmed by the company.
