Truthfully, I really like this palette. I has two matte and three shimmer/satin shades (I don't want to call them strictly shimmer, they're really super subtle), and they're all neutrals. It also comes with a mini dual ended brush which is adorable but not super practical for me (my hands are kinda too big for that).
Anyway, I really like the shades. Most of you know I'm not a neutrals girl, which I'm now thinking is because I hadn't found these neutrals. I can't quite put my finger on why I like them so much, but I think that maybe it's because they're true colors, instead of golden or silvery or pinkish (Naked palettes, I'm lookin at you). I like that they all stand out on their own. The shades are also all super smooth and pigmented, which is exactly what I expect from Urban Decay shadows. There was a tiny bit of fallout with Vengeance, the dark brown shade, but nothing major, really I just forgot to tap off my brush. They all applied super true to color, blended out nicely...I just found them so easy to work with.
Shade by shade:
-Righteous, a matte cream shade, which I didn't use but looks lovely.
-Tyranny is a matte warm tan shade, which I used to blend out Vengeance, it worked really nicely for that. It would probably be a nice crease color for some subtle looks. It's nicely pigmented, applies far better than the swatch.
-Vengeance is the dark satin/shimmer brown, which I used in my crease. I like it because it's not too warm or cool toned, it's literally a neutral neutral. It's also not too shimmery, but just enough to give a hint of shine.
-Anger is a shimmery black, which I used to blend out my bottom eyeliner a smidgen, and it's pretty wonderful. It's not too deep a black, but it's definitely really nice to work with, especially for blending purposes. If I use it on it's own, I'll let y'all know.
And finally:
-Furious is a white shimmer, which I love. It's nice and pale, but still pigmented enough to show up. It kicks up a bit of fallout, but not enough to matter.
In addition to this, I got the lipstick and lip liner, which I'm not wearing today, but they're both awesome. I wore them around last night, and whoa. First of all, they're gorgeous shades. Super creamy, satin reds. No shimmer in anything, which I know some people were speculating about. They're so smooth and apply so evenly. The only thing is that they will totally stain your lips.
So, those are my reviews. Overall, a really awesome line. I expect nothing less from Urban Decay, but I really am surprised I love everything (neutrals!) this much.
Here's the look I ended up with, I also used:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Zero
Too Faced Starry Eyes Liquid liner in Ooh & Aah
Perfekt Lash Perfection Gel
All in all, I'm really pretty happy with the look. I didn't get the UD glitter, because I had this Too Faced one, which I think is more or less the same color. I wanted to use it as sort of a dupe :) that's it. Let me know if you have any questions, comments, suggestions! Have a wonderful day, y'all.

This look came out lovely. I really like the glittery eyeliner. It is hard to use glitter and have it come out as pretty and subtle as this.

Hannah K.
Thanks, Sierra :) I'm obsessed with glitter, but I really wanted to keep the look like it was from the palette. You have no idea how many times I was like "purple glitter! I could do purple and it would look awesome! Or maybe blue? Hmmm, wait, that would take away from the shadows, UGH!"

Can I just say the blending of this look is amazing! I looovvee it! My only suggestion is to apply "Tyranny" and "Righteous" under the black liner on the bottom and gently blend it out a bit with a pencil brush.

Hannah K.
Hmmm, good point, Maggie. It looks unbalanced now that I'm looking at it. Thank you so much!

It looks really good on you! I really don't like glitter but this actually looks great to me, which is saying something! I actually like it crisp on the bottom like you have it.

Hannah K.
Oh Breeze, how do you not like glitter?? Lol! I'm glad you like it in spite of that :)

I really don't know! Haha I like shimmer in small doses, but it's a diffused sparkle, with glitter you can see the single sparkles.. And I normally don't like it. On me at least :) it's like food. I HATE bananas with all my heart, I just run away when I see one open. But a lot of people love them :)
Lol but seriously you look so gorgeous! :D

Ohhh did someone put neutrals on their eyes? I must mark this day down on my calendar!
Jul 20, 2014
Hannah K.
Kitty I think the notable part is that I actually like it! Lol. It's a pretty awesome palette, I can't lie. And for someone who doesn't have the:
Chocolate Bar
Naked 1
Naked 2
Naked 3
Naked Basics
Lorac Pro
or
Lorac Pro 2
I think it works for me!
Jul 20, 2014
Kitty K.
Wow! See I just have the Naked 2 palette and BHCosmetics Neutrals palette, but I have Stila shadow Quads that are way more neutral than the Naked palettes and way more pigmented.. It definitely works for you then, no need to buy a neutral palette period!

Hannah K.
See I've just never been a total neutrals girl. So everyone is raving about these palettes and I'm like...eh. So this one, I think it's pretty awesome :)

I am torn about this collection. I love UD and the collection is so cool but I don't need neutrals and I don't wear reds too much. And I'm not into pulp fiction at all sadly but for some reason I just want this collection anyway haha. I hope UD make more movie type collections in the future though. I would looovve to see a Planet Terror palette inspired by Rose McGowan's character Cherry. I would have to buy the whole thing lol. Anyway, your look is gorgeous as always Hannah! :)

Aw thanks Caitlin. I understand, sometimes it's hard to justify buying certain products no matter how pretty and interesting they are!
