I personally am not really a neutral eyeshadow person, I like bold and bright colors BUT this palette as changed me forever!!  THIS is how Urban Decay does neutral! Far from a group of boring beige shadows, this long, lean, seductive case is packed with TWELVE gorgeous neutrals. Shades range from delicate champagnes to dark, gritty gunmetal, and feature FIVE NEW shades with names like Darkhorse, Virgin and Buck. We’ve also included a range of textures: everything from glitter to shimmer to matte.

These are the colors in the Urban Decay Palette:

  • Virgin:  A shimmery creamy warm white
  • Sin: A highly shimmery cream with a touch of peach
  • Naked: A matte light latte cream
  • Sidecar: A highly shimmery cream-gold, with glitter bits
  • Buck: A matte medium brown
  • Half-baked: A shimmery warm gold with a very smooth texture
  • Smog: A shimmery deep gold-brown
  • Darkhorse: A shimmery dark bronze-brown
  • Toasted: A metallic soft brown with a touch of grey and a faint hint of pink

For my desi girls out there, these colors would look wonderful on tan skin.  Here it is…

Urban-Decay-680x680You can get this palette from Ulta or Sephora or even online at urbandecay.com.  I truly love Urban Decay products because first of all they do not test on animals! yay! Also, their colors are very potent!  A little goes a long way.  I really like their eyeshadows more than MAC sometimes.  I personally feel it has a lot more pigmentation than MAC and the colors that Urban Decay offer are different from the MAC collection.  Keep watching for a video on a look from this palette!
