Urban Decay Build Your Own Palette

Got the Urban Decay build your own palette when I was in Toronto a couple of weeks ago. But as mentioned in previous post, the shades I like were not available at the Sephora store I visited. So went online to browse the complete list of shades.

Let me tell you, there are so many new shades that I find hard to make up my mind. Like a kid in a candy store, I have to put a few shades in my cart a few times and sleep on them before making my decision.

I have their Naked Palette 2 and love their neutral colors. So besides the neutral shade which comes with the palette, I only picked one neutral.


I love the idea of how easy it is to just pop the shadows out of these cases and put in my palette.


Buck, a very neutral beige color


Asphyxia, a light purple lilac color


Hijack, a dark green


Mushroom, a dark grey shimmery color, absolutely gorgeous


So this is my palette. As you can tell, I only got 4 shades this time. I just cannot find another shade that I absolutely adore to fill up my palette at this time. Figure there will always be new shades coming and I can always add on. What is your favorite Urban Decay eye shadow? Any suggestion ?


Swatches 

Walk of fame is a neutral color which I am intending to use as a base or highlighter on corners of my eye and brow bone.

Buck is another neutral shade with more of a brown tone.

Asphyxia is a light lilac color. Very pretty. Loving lilac and just notice I have none similar to that.

Hijack looks quite different from the shade shown on website. You have to swatch at it at the store to fully appreciate how pigmented and gorgeous the color is. More of a grayish green color.

Mushroom is my favorite. Brownish with a hint of silver shimmers. Perfect for outer corner of eyes.
