Urban Decay Smoked Palette

Smoked Palette

 

 

 

Over the Thanksgiving break I swore to myself I wouldn’t participate in any black Friday/ cyber Monday fanfare. Their just was no need for it really. Then I saw the ad for Ulta and knew I would be breaking my promise. Along with this pallet from Urban Decay I managed to score shampoo to last me a year (I’m not even kidding) all at a killer price.

This is the Smoky Eye Pallet by Urban Decay it contains 10 shades(5 of which are exclusive to this pallet), A full size 24/7 Glide-On eyeliner in the cult classic shade perversion, oh and it comes with a mini primer potion! I think I picked this up for something like 10 or 12 dollars during the sale! I mean really a total and complete steal.

 

I really love this palette. It has a nice range of shades without overwhelming you with too many options. It really has everything you need to create multiple smoky eye looks; a base shade, transition shade, an excellent black shade (literally the darkest black I own), a matte brown, and lots of jewel tones to amp up your look. You can even use this palette for an everyday work look by sticking with the matte shades. If you’re a bit timid when it comes to using the darker shades the illustrated guide will help you create any type of look you are wanting.

 

The formulation of these shadows are marvelous, buttery smooth and highly pigmented. My swatches were with one pass on each color. I mean look at the pay off!

You can still get this bad boy and it’s still on sale (although not as cheap as when I purchased it). Sephora and UrbanDecay.com both have it for $20.  

I plan on creating a look with this palette and sharing it on the blog. Im even thinking of venturing into filming a tutorial (one of my goals this year is to do more tutorial type posts).  Let me know what you want to see in the comments!
