Urban Decay

Urban Decay is a brand that I adore and have often written about it.  I love the brand because firstly it is cruelty free which is important to me and secondly the quality is amazing.  I was very lucky to receive some new offerings from the brand a few weeks ago and I have been using them almost every day since.

The first of the products that I have been using is the Flushed palette.  The Flushed palette contains contour, highlighter and blush.  The products are gorgeously pigmented and long lasting.  They are easy to apply and blend and give a gorgeous glow and finish.  I really like this palette because it works well with my pale skin.  I apply my make-up at 6am most mornings and by the evening the powders are perfectly in place. The palette costs €31.

The second item which I have been using every day since I received it is the Brow Box.  I’m using shade Brunette Betty and it comes in six different shades.  The box is a full brow kit hosting two layers; one of which is a tweezers and two brushes as well as a magnifying mirror.  The top layer contains brow wax and two brow powders.  The brow powders are warm toned, particularly the lighter shade as it has a reddish hue.   I mix the two together to get the right match for my brow colour.  Mixing the powders gives a more natural look to the brows and I’m delighted with the results.  A little goes along way with the powder and I’d recommend a light hand.  As with the Flushed palette, the pigmentation and lasting power is absolutely fantastic.  I’m thrilled with this product and I can see it lasting ages due to the small amount that is required to do my brows. The Brow Box is €26.50.

The last item I received is the Vice Liquid Lipstick.  I have been using Tryst which is perfect for me because I love a strong red lip colour.  Liquid lipsticks are very much on trend at the moment and Urban Decay have not disappointed with their offering.  The lipstick dries beautifully and doesn’t feel heavy on the lips.  The lipstick is waterproof and doesn’t transfer.  There are thirty shades to choose from and they range from matte to metallic.  Vice Liquid Lipstick costs €18.50.

As usual Urban Decay has not disappointed with its newest products.
