Yet another little goody I picked up from Winners, Urban Decay "Best of Urban" gift set in "Spandex" retail price quoted at 34.99, Winners price: $9.99 CDN!
This was super exciting (to me!) because it has:
-a cute little UD Primer Potion
-a mini 24/7 pencil
-Heavy Metal Glitter Liner in "Spandex"
-an eyeshadow in "Uzi"! (The shadow alone is 20$ at Sephora, so I snatched this up right quick!)
Pros:
- super cheap
- fun sparkly colours for night time!
- the teeny-tiny primer is great for travel
- the UD pencil liner in "zero" is a nice blendable smudgy black, and can be worn any time
- the price!!! $10 CDN is great for these little gems, especially if you LOVE glitter!
Cons
- the eyeshadow is SUPER glittery, and with glitter, it has a tendency to fall out everywhere AKA you end up with a sparkly mother-lovin' face! SO if you do venture into glitter (which after seeing Katy Perry's vid for "Waking Up in Vegas" who DOESN'T!? haha) use a very creamy/sticky base (like a smooth eyeliner or a primer of some sort) so that you minimize fall out!
- **TIP** Use a "pat-pat" motion with glitter eyeshadows and products, NOT a "swiping" motion with your brush, swiping makes the glitter go everywhere, but patting it helps it stick to the base better!
Let us have a look-see at some swatches, shall we?
Left to right: Heavy Metal Liner in "Spandex", "Uzi" eyeshadow, and 24/7 Liner in "Zero"
Additional thoughts: i like the glitter liner! I think that the applicator is nice and easy to use (a thin brush) and it will look GREAT layered on top of black eye liner! All in all, I'm pretty easily pleased...but like it...Oh, and that Katy Perry song is stuck in my head!!! *hums*
Have a great day everyone! XoXo
