I'm super excited to share this eye look I came up with and super duper pumped for the Suicide squad movie! and to be honest I've been really inspired using/playing around with my newly acquired Urban Decay Urban Spectrum Eyeshadow Palette haha!
I remember as a kid watching some old animated batman cartoons and you know even up to now how Joker always has this green hair,purple suit and how Harley Quinn is always this fun bubbly girl so that's the way I visualize this look Harley is the pink shade and since she likes Joker that much I figure integrating both looks would be nice although I feel like this is more Joker~est but anyway this was super fun to create and I will definitely be rocking this look when I'm out and about to watch this flick. I hope you like and enjoy it! ^_^
This is a limited-edition eye shadow palette with a spectrum of 15 shades from Urban Decay's iconic Eyeshadow. Formulated without Paragons. Although it's limited edition there are some shades here that you can totally find in other UD palette as well the "classic" ones I guess.
The palette comes in a stunning, collectible black case with a smoky gray, faceted “UD” jewel and laser-cut, filigreed edges. The detachable lid houses a full-size mirror and stands up on its own—perfect for on-the-go touchups. Once you’re done with the shadows, remove the tray and use the velvet-lined box to stash jewelry and other mementos. I love this design!
This set contains:
- 15 x 0.05 oz Eye shadow (full UD eyeshadow pan sizes,according to many you tubers,bloggers out there also I checked UD website for a single eyeshadow you have to pay $21 like whoa! )
So with this set I truly feel like it's such a total bargain! plus since I guess they reach their sale quota and this was released last year you know and fall 2016 also christmas! so near yet so far is almost upon us maybe that's why it was on sale for $29 (Truly Christmas in July haha)
Swatches without any primer on!
(Left to Right) Protest (golden forest green shimmer), Junkie (green teal shimmer), Deep End (bright teal shimmer), Madness (bright metallic blue shimmer with micro-glitter), Evidence (deep navy blue shimmer), Prank (deep navy matte with turquoise pearl), Omen (bright metallic purple with blue shift), Flashback (bright deep purple with pink sparkle), Voodoo (metallic purple shimmer with micro-glitter)
(Left to Right) Flatline (metallic pale pink), Bordello (pale mauve shimmer with micro-glitter), Backlash (bright pink with orange pearl), Daybreak (soft bronze with silver glitter), Burn (medium golden brown shimmer), West (medium golden brown shimmer)
Some shades like the light ones example Omen,Bordello,Flatline I have to apply 2-3 times for it to show here in my forearm swatch but overall they're all very pigmented once applied on the eyelids with or without primer on and truly a little bit goes a long way. Minimal fallout,soft but not too soft eyeshadows and I love the shimmer aspect most of all that's why I bought it plus I don't currently own any teal,blue,green,violet and pink eyeshadows before this so yeah this is my very first Urban Decay Eyeshadow Palette. Its like these colors spoke to me more unlike any other UD palette you know how the other palette seems a bit overwhelming since there's a lot of shades I dunno which color to match and stuff like that but with this it was like YAS! pop of color! oh summer! Ohhh endless shimmer life!
The colors I do own in my other palettes however and might actually be a dupe for flatline,daybreak,bordello,burn and west since I feel like most eyeshadow palettes out there almost always have a neutral color (I think I can get these looks using my Lorac Unzipped since it has that rose gold and brown hues). Anyway, for the price $29 (on sale) its like I only paid $2 or so for each pan that's just cray! and once opened it lasts for 2 years nice! truly patience is a virtue ;)

Overall 5 out of 5 stars! I love these eyeshadows! small,compact and travel friendly! this became one of my favorite eyeshadows I feel so happy and excited whenever I use this it blends easily whether you use your fingers or brush although Luz (the glittery one) expect some fallout when you apply this either way I love this quad! worth every penny! haha xD
So If you've been following me on Instagram I recently posted some of these photos I know I'm a total makeup obsessed person these days I dunno why ugh mayhaps it's the season since it's spring and a lot of things are on sale and new-ish I like to browse around on my spare time,compare and check prices, grab a good deal stuff like that anyway without further a do!
I actually saw this at the Walmart Store other than that the rest I browsed online
So they say the Elf Illuminating Palette is a good dupe for the Smashbox contour kit...they're quite close in comparison
So I might try Elf first then smashbox although I'm still quite contemplating about it since the Smashbox one looks a bit dark to my liking and that's the lightest shade soo...yeah tap off the excess :))
Look at this beauty!
I never had a lip palette especially one this big haha! The thing about lip palettes I think they're quite messy and not travel friendly I feel like they're always gonna melt and how about touch ups am I right? this one is a bit of a splurge $3 a pan
VERSUS
this one is $13-15 although BH Cosmetics usually have sales and they got nice quality or so I heard from youtube haha and since we're on the topic about affordable goodies just look at their blushes!
If I haven't bought the benefit cheeky palette last year I would gladly jump in and buy this one in a heartbeat! for $10 you get such wonderful variety of colors for all seasons! and it's so massive I feel like this could last a lifetime haha :0
I think BH Cosmetics are great for beginners like me,aspiring makeup artists,makeup lovers and beauty gurus. I love how they always have a good deal at their website
When I saw this online my initial thought was wow! that is a good deal! and free shipping too then again as I start calculating I still think it's a nice variety of products to try and test with but still too pricey! but look at that beautiful eyeshadow set,lip color and purse though...
Lorac Riesling Product
I think this one is limited edition...I hope they bring it back! there's always ebay though haha!
Saw this one at Sephora's website and look at those gorgeous shimmers! wow! it's expensive considering it's travel size hmm..I think there's a Physician's formula dupe of this one which is much more affordable.
