IT'S ELECTRIC

As soon as I saw the Urban Decay Electric Palette I knew it would be mine. Now I'm usually a neutral girl but I think this palette is absolutely stunning and I am going to incorporate these shades into a variety of looks. Now these colors are classified as "pressed pigments" meaning that they are insanely rich in color. They go on the eyes so intensely and beautifully and blend out like a dream. 

The only downfall is that four of the shades: slow burn, savage, jilted, and urban are not deemed as safe for the eye area by the fda. Now, that doesn't stop me from using them on my eyes but just so you know they are "technically" not supposed to be used there. What can I say, I'm a rebel.  :) 

I would use an eye primer like the Urban Decay Primer Potion or something similar first and then use a white eyeliner or eye base on top to keep the intensity of the colors at their fullest. 

These colors last all day and have the same wonderful quality as all Urban Decay shadows. I love this palette and I am excited about playing around with it.

MATTE ABOUT YOU

So I've always been a fan of matte eyeshadows. I just think that they complete an eye look and make everything flow. So when I saw It Cosmetics came out with an all matte eyeshadow palette I knew it would be mine. 

The It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Vol 1 Matte Luxe Transforming Eye Shadow palette contains 14 silky matte colors as well as a pearl transforming shade that gives any of the matte shades a sheen so really you are getting 28 different colors out of this palette all together. 

The quality of these colors is outstanding. They are richly pigmented and blend beautifully together. With shades from light nude to beautiful peaches and pinks to dark purples blues and browns you can cr date just about any eye look that you could ever want. I am very excited to create some looks with this palette using both the matte and sheen finishes.
