For their 15th Anniversary Urban Decay released a great little teaser of a palette with 15 eyeshadows in it for $55. I was lucky enough to buy it the first morning it went on sale online or I would have been crying like many people. I hope this goes on sale again at www.urbandecay.com. and I hope that www.sephora.com will get it.
I must say, it did not disappoint. The shadows are typical UD: soft, smooth and creamy. There are only a couple that have that typical fallout. The best colors are the bright colors. My only complaint is that they really needed another crease color here. Instead of the 5-6 sweet highlighters maybe they could have sacrificed one for a crease tone.
Today I decided to go for a purple look. Purple has become one of my favorite, if not my favorite, colors lately. I used Junkshow (bright fuschia) in the crease and Omen (shimmery lavender) to line the crease and the outer eye and then under the eye. Then I used Tainted (duo lilac) on the lid and below the brow. Finally I used a small line of Half Truth (dark inky purple) in the crease. Let me know what you think of the color combination!
Now I am disappointed I passed on this one.
ReplyDeleteMarie, I love that color combination. I couldn't pull it off like you can.
ReplyDeleteThank you. You would be surprised what you can pull off. Play around a little at home. Practice makes perfect in the world of makeup! :)
ReplyDeleteI finally got the palette today at the Sephora near me. It wasn't out on display, but they did grab one for me from the back when I asked. I'm looking forward to playing w/it, but I'm also wanting to get Tarte's True Blood palette even though it's much more neutral & smokier.
