On Sale!
First things first... I
haven't seen Pulp fiction (yet!) I know I know, it's a classic but honestly I'm
not a big movie watcher haha. Must be because my husband puts on a movie almost
every night but shhhh don't tell him! Urban Decay released this palette a
few months back for
$34.... pretty pricey so I passed on it. But the priced was recently
reduced to
$16 and I had a
20% off coupon for anything at
Ulta so I decided to pick it up! At that price it was a bargain and so far I
love this palette!
The packaging is really
eye-catching, love the colors and how
compact it is. When you have as many palettes as I do smaller is better haha.
It has a nice size
mirror so its a great palette to take with you if you're traveling. At first I thought the palette was very similar to the
Naked Basics palette but it's actually
warmer. I owned the Naked Basics but I decided to sell it since I
wasn't using it much... now I know why. The colors
weren't as warm as I wanted for blending and such. This one has warmer shades and I just tend to
gravitate towards those colors.
All the colors are truly
perfect for everyday or to use in
combination with other palettes that are lacking a good brown color.
My only con is that I wished they
wouldn't put the black and white shade together, it's pretty
difficult to try to pick up some color without touching the other. Here are the swatches:
My favorite shades are
Tyranny and
Vengeance, beautiful rich browns! Tyranny is the best crease/blending shade and Vengeance would looking amazing all over the lid for a
brown smokey eye! Righteous is also a great one, it's so
pigmented and silky! Overall a great palette!
Oh! I wanted to point out this adorable brush that comes with the palette, is actually pretty decent in a pinch.
Bottom line: This is a great neutral palette! I'm so glad they lowered the price because honestly $34 is way too much for 5 shades. Now $16 is more like it and keep in mind the quality of these shadows is outstanding! I'm a huge fan of Urban Decay and when their palettes are on sale I say what the heck?... buy it! You won't be disappointed. :-)
