Urban Decay Haul

As I was browsing around the Internet on the 25th, I saw that Urban Decay was having a flash sale. Once I headed over to Urban Decay, I saw they had given their site a makeover and in honor of that makeover the Feminine, Dangerous, and Fun palettes were half price along with their amazing primer potion in "Greed" for two days only.

I decided that of course I didn't already have way too much makeup and bought both the fun and feminine palettes and the primer potion. I also hit up the sale and got one of their vintage eyeshadows to make my order hit $50 so I could get the free shipping :)

First things first, let me show you what it all looks like :)

We will start off with the vintage shadow. I got it in Ecstasy. It is a really pretty purple shadow with a slight pink tint. I already own a few of the vintage eyeshadows and for $4 you can't beat it.

The next item is the Feminine Palette. It has six eyeshadows, and a travel- size Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Wallflower. The names of the shadows are Bordello, Skimp, AC/DC, Gunmetal, Hijack, and Lost.

Bordello- pale mauve with gold micro-glitter

Skimp- light peachy pearl

AC/DC- smokey greyish purple shimmer

Gunmetal- dark metallic grey shimmer with silver micro-glitter

Hijack- deep metallic teal shimmer

Lost- medium metallic brown shimmer

Wallflower- nude creamy pink

The Fun palette also has six eyeshadows and a travel size Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Midnight Cowboy. The names of the shadows are Deep End, Sellout, Fishnet, Stray Dog, and Freakshow.

Deep End- bright teal shimmer

Sellout- pinky champagne shimmer

Fishnet- bright pink with purple shift

Stray Dog- cool metallic ash brown shimmer

Freakshow- deep royal purple pearl

Midnight Cowboy Lip Junkie Lip Gloss- sheer nude sparkle

The really cool thing about these palettes is that you can take the eyeshadow holder out. It has a magnet on it and you can reuse the case for something else.

 

 

And last I got the Urban Decay Primer Potion (UDPP) in Greed. It is a shimmering gold color. While i like this one, My favorite of the four is Eden. To me it feels a little thicker and I feel it makes my shadows last longer.

Did anyone else buy any goodies during the flash sale? If so, what did ya get?

My favorite eyeliners :)

I am an eyeliner fanatic. I have a drawer full of them. Pencils, gel, and liquid. I used to just wear black eyeliner all the time until I tried Urban Decay. I rushed out and bought the 15th Anniversary pencil set and instantly fell in love. Their 24/7 liners are amazing! They are majorly pigmented, go on smoothly and last for quite a while. They come in so many beautiful colors, you are sure to find a color you love. I have bought numerous pencil sets from Urban Decay and have loved every one. They retail for $19 at Sephora, Ulta and Urban Decay. Ulta only carries 14 colors on their website, while Sephora carries 39 colors and Urban Decay offers all 40 colors.

I also like the Tarte EmphasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow Liner. I got it as part of a set from Sephora and it quickly became one of my go-to eyeliners. This eyeliner last all day, I did not have to re-apply it mid day like I have to with most other eyeliners. It retails for $24 at both Ulta and Sephora. My only complaint is that I wish it came in more colors. Right now there's only 5 colors, but I still think its a great product.

My last favorite eyeliner is from Hard Candy. Their Take Me Out eyeliner is amazing. You can only buy Hard Candy at Walmart and they retail anywhere from $3.83-$5 and come in 25 different colors. Their staying power is pretty good, and I think are a must have to every beauty collection.

I am always interested in hearing about other makeup products so leave a comment below telling me about your favorite products because I would love to try them out too :)

My Top 5 Mascaras

Like any girl, I have tried my fair share of Mascaras. Ones that claim to add length and one that claim to add volume. Below are my top 5 Mascaras :)

1.) Benefit- They're Real. Let me just say how much I love the wand for this mascara. It gets all of my lashes, even the little baby ones and goes on so smooth.

2.) Urban Decay- Supercurl Curling Mascara. For me this one gives my lashes a little bit of curl without having to use and eyelash curler.

3.) L'Oreal- Voluminous Carbon Black. I found out about this mascara by watching Marlena from MakeupGeek's videos. She was always saying it was here favorite mascara so I decided to give it a try. It is absolutely amazing. (Thanks Marlena!!)

 

4.) Urban Decay- Big Fatty Mascara. I bought this when they reformulated, and it was only $5. That was $5 well spent. I love how it makes my lashes seem fuller. I have not tried out the new formula so I am anxious to see if it is better than this one. Has anyone tried the new one? If so, leave me a comment and let me know!

5.)Maybelline- The Rocket Volum' Express. This is hands down my most favorite mascara. I love the wand, how it makes my lashes look and how it last all day for me. A lot of Mascaras that I have tried need to be reapplied midday, but not this one.
