ok... back to the b.o.s.
my swatches follow the same order
first thoughts: the colors are pretty fantastic. i am such a fan of urban decay shadows... however, i will not be using curiouser any time soon! the swatch doesn't read very well, but it is way too glittery for me! white rabbit is glittery too, but less so and i'm predicting the rabbit will be easier to work with. i am loving wonderland... like LOVING it!! it's a gorgeous metallic gold color. and i can't wait to use alice! the rose colored queen might be difficult for me, but i am determined to find a way or off with my head!
now the bottom two rows
my swatches follow the same order
first thoughts: these two rows are much more my speed! omg! vorpal is a silver that i will definitely be able to work with. the green wonder absolem is absolutely amazing! midnight tea party is another one that is too glitterific for me, the rather matte-ish chocolate brown mad hatter fully makes up for it. but hands down my favorite color has got to be mushroom! omg! it's a taupish that errs on the side of gray and is incredibly versatile!! i'm in love.
so there are my initial thoughts... do you have the b.o.s.? i'd love to hear your thoughts!
i'm off to play with my new toy!
I don't have any Urban Decay shadows and would love to have this one! It is just packaged too cute and would be so fun to play with! Colors look pretty nice too. For the ones that are too shimmery though, maybe you can use them like liner for a fun night out? I was hinting to my hubby to get me this for Vday, so we'll see what happens!!
ReplyDeleteyes i will probably have to use the glittery ones wet as liner, but urban decay is notorious for having some serious glitter in some of their shadows... like huge bits of glitter! yikes! i used to be able to pull that off, but not anymore... i'll stick to shimmer! : ) what's fun about the palettes is you get a bunch of colors you may not have ever tried and can give them a test run.
ReplyDeletei suggest pushing for the palette more with the hubby. it's worth is and so are you!
: D
My birthday is in March so this is going right to the top of my list. Your swatches definately helped me decide I need it!
