Urban Decay palettes


Top: Vegan Palette
Bottom: Ammo Palette

With the Aussie dollar so strong against the US one, I went a bit nuts and made a whole heap of online purchases from US sites. Two of the purchases were these fab palettes from Urban Decay... I know they've been around forever and swatched to death, but considering they're not sold in AU I hadn't purchased them before (and I don't usually have the patience to wait for international delivery in order to buy online).

I bought the Vegan Palette and the Ammo Palette.

This is what the gorgeous Vegan Palette looks like, which comes with a primer in the colour Sin and eyeliner in Zero.





The swatch above is from Makeupgeek. I bought the Vegan palette for my friend so I don't want to put my germy fingers all over them by swatcing.

The Ammo palette however is mine, so no worries about swatching this one!





Top L/R: Smog, Mildew, Oil Slick, Last Call, Chopper
Bottom L/R: Maui Wowie, Shattered, Polyester Bride, Grifter, Sin

I love all the colours and I'll definitely use them all. The pigmentation is excellent, as is expected from UD shadows, although some of them (Polyester Bride and Grifter) do have a bit of a fall out.

My favourite is Grifter, it's probably my new favourite purple/lilac e/s. And I also love Maui Wowie... but it could also be because I love saying Maui Wowie!

Have you got any of these palettes? What are your favourite UD palettes?

  2. The vegan palette looks delish! I can't believe that they don't sell it in Aussie!

    I love the Naked palette, hands down. Their loose eye shadows are nice too!

  4. Hi Lilit,

    both palettes are so pretty and I hope you show us a few looks with the Ammo Palette. Shattered looks so pretty to me. The pigmentation looks so good.
    I have never tried any UD palette and I really want the Naked palette. I hope I can grab this sometimes.

  7. @Alex - thanks, and I'll def check out your giveway!

    @Toni - yep, there's a lot of things they don't sell in OZ land! Not happy... and not only that Sephora doesn't even deliver here direct.

    @D - smog is definitely my favourite too. It's also in the Naked palette so i'm happy I don't have to worry about running out.

    @Sandra - Good luck with hunt for the Naked palette, it is seriously worth it! And i'll try doing some looks on the weekend and post it later.

    @Jade and Sylvia - it took me forever to find the Naked palette, but I'm so glad I love it. It is easily the best palette around.

  8. These palettes look so nice!
    I have the Naked palette, so far it's my only UD one, although I do have some of their single eyeshadows. I really want to get the Vegan palette next, the packaging is just too cute to resist!
    Enjoy your new goodies!!

  12. I have the Ammo Palette and I really love it. My favorite color is Maui Wowie. But be careful while applying the shadows because for some reason, I experience some fallout with the shadows. But I LOVE the palette nonetheless :)

    The Vegan palette looks great too! I have to add it to my never ending beauty list LOL!
