Put some sun glasses on because this is one large green neon palette. Urban Decays new limited edition "Vice LTD" palette. Exclusive to Ulta, so get them while they are hot! This palettes retails for a whopping $58.00! I'm still deciding if it's worth the doe.
What it's all about. Per the back of the box this is 20 velvety shades, 18 exclusives 5 bing new and 2 of them considered to be bestsellers. Out of the 20 shades only 4 are matte. The rest are shimmer/sparkle/velvet/bam in your face LOL. This also comes with a double sided eyeshadow brush. The brush is pretty awesome.
I so badly wanted to love this palette, I did. This was not what I was expecting. Don't get me wrong, this is a great palette just a tad bit disorganized for me. I don't find myself reaching for this due to the fact that I'm not inspired by it. The eyeshadows have no organization to them. I feel like someone came in picked colors to put in the palette and just put them in. There is no grouping of shades to help create an eye look. No inspirational booklet, nothing! Just a mix match of eyeshadows.
Don't get me wrong eye looks can be made with this palette, but some thought has to be put into it. Almost like making things out. I felt I need a blank face chart to color in first before I do my makeup.
I have to admit, the colors in this palette are pretty amazing! "Roadstripe" at first glance looks like it's white. It's not, it's a purple opal essence. "Blitz," "Disco" and "Heat" are some serious metal shades that look amazing. It looks almost looks like what melted gold or copper would look like as an eyeshadow. Urban Decay has always created magic when it comes to their eyeshadow shades. There was no lacking here.
In the end was it worth the $58.00 and worth owning? I am so on the fence with this palette. I want to say that this is the palette of the year, but I just can't. If it had some organization I would have liked it a lot more. I'm going to say that it makes a great addition to any eyeshadow collection. Great shades and great quality. Just not the all star of the year. I think it could have been better. I feel even the packaging was cheep. I've seen better, like the Naked On The Run palette click here to see how amazing that palettes is. I like it, just am not in love with it.
Till next time,
Amber
