Urban Decay Naked Heat review

I have been dying to try the Urban Decay Naked Heat Palette* and I am not gonna lie - it was sooo worth the wait! It was very hyped up and has the perfect colour selection for my skin tone and eye colour and I am simply in love!

Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Palette Review and Swatches

Whenever Urban Decay release a new eye shadow palette, I know it will be a good one. Their formula is my favourite and I love the brand with all my heart! The new Naked Ultimate Basics Palette*(£38.50) is one of the best UD releases since the original Naked palette came out and I am very pleased to have it in my collection. It's packed with stunning matte colours and perfect for everyday use.

Urban Decay Vice Lipsticks

I am sure you've heard about Urban Decay launching a whopping 100 shades of VICE lipstick*(£15.00), right? Now that's what I call a good selection of colours and finishes. I have 5 of the lippies to show you today and they are simply stunning!

Urban Decay Alice Through The Looking Glass Collection Review

The stunning Urban Decay Alice Through The Looking Glass collection is finally available in the UK and you can now get your mitts on all of the pieces. The eyeshadow palette is simply gorgeous and the lipsticks are insane! Just look at that packaging! I am in love!

Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Lipsticks

I already reviewed two pieces from the UD X Gwen collection, but today I have the final instalment for you - the lippies! I have three out of the eight shades available and they are all stunning! 

Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Blush Palette review

 After falling in love with the Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette*, I couldn't resist the stunning blush selection from the collection! Oh my, just look at that packaging! What makeup dreams are made of! The Gwen Stefani Blush Palette* is great value for money, at only £35.00 for 6 colours, all perfect for Spring/Summer 2016.

Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Palette

Urban Decay never fail to impress with their new collections and the Gwen Stefani collaboration is insanely good. The Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette* (£40.00) was released at the end of last year and it has been my go to palette for everyday makeup or a smokey eye for the past few weeks/months. Since the collection was recently expanded with a blush palette, lipsticks and more, I decided to finally review the eyeshadow palette. I mentioned it in my gift guide and in my recent favourites, but it deserves it's own blog post. 

Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette Review & Swatches

It's finally time to tell you what I think of the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette* (£38.00). It has been one of the biggest makeup launches (if not the biggest) of the year and everyone seems to be obsessed with it. It sold out in the US within minutes after the launch and it took the UK by storm too! Crazy, right? Well, that's what happens when UD releases a new Naked palette :)

New from Urban Decay: Naked Flushed & Bronzing BB


There is nothing I love more in Summer, than a bronzed complexion and a nice golden glow. To help me achieve this look, I have been using two new Urban Decay releases. The Naked Skin Bronzing Beauty Balm and Naked Flushed Compact in Strip. I might be slightly obsessed with them :)

Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitters Giveaway


If you love glitter and Urban Decay, you will love this giveaway :) I am giving you a chance to win a full set of the new Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitters and the Bondage Adhesive in a cute little UD gift bag. It's the full range, with all 6 colours included. Your prize will obviously be brand new and unopened and the photos above are from my review, which you can read here

New Urban Decay Liners & Angled Brush


When it comes to black liners, I swear by the Bourjois Liner Pinceau Liquid Liner and the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencil in shade Zero. I repurchased both of them many times and I can't fault them at all. I like to try new options though and the new Urban Decay offerings are just as good as my two favourites. There is a new liquid liner, a cream liner, a 24/7 glide-on pencil, an angled brush and a retractable pencil.

Urban Decay Heavy Metal Loose Glitters & Bondage Adhesive



I absolutely adore Urban Decay, which means that every single one of their launches really excites me. When the Heavy Metal Loose Glitters arrived in the post, I couldn't wait to give them a go. I just love anything sparkly, but... I am not too sure if I will be able to pull them off :)

Urban Decay Naked Lip Glosses


These have been on my radar for a while, but I wasn't too sure what shade I should get. Many bloggers mentioned that all the colours look very similar on the lips (which could be the case if you compare all of the nude ones, or have super pigmented, dark lips), but I was pleasantly surprised with the selection I was kindly sent to try out. They all have different hues, look stunning on the lips and feel really luxurious.

Urban Decay Electric Palette - review and swatches

Urban Decay Electric Palette* (£38.00)

I am a self-confessed Urban Decay addict and I consider their eye shadows THE BEST on the market. I am pretty sure that everyone who knows their formula will definitely agree with me. Their new Electric Palette was designed with colour addicts in mind, containing 10 insanely bright pressed pigments, with 8 of them being totally new and 2 featured in previous limited edition palettes. There is a nice selection of matte and shimmers, all super pigmented and and with a velvety texture.

Purple Smokey Eye with Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette


As promised, here is another look created with the Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette*. This time, it is a dramatic, purple/violet smokey eye. It is one of my favourite makeup looks and I wear it quite often. I am hoping to improve my blending skills with my new MAC 217 brush in the future, but this look was created before I got it :)

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette


I apologize in advance, if you are sick of hearing about the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette, but... I was wondering how many of you will be purchasing it? As an Urban Decay addict, I have to say, that I need this gorgeous palette in my life and I think that the shades are  different enough to make me purchase it. The palette will be available in US this month and it will definitely launch in UK before Christmas. I am pretty sure that it will be the most popular makeup gift this year :)

Subtle Golden Smokey Eye With A Pop Of Green - My Favourite Eye Makeup Look For Brown Eyes


I love adding a pop of colour to my eye makeup looks and you won't see me wearing subtle, neutral eye shadows every single day of the year. In my opinion, all the fun is in experimenting with new colour combinations and making them work for you! Thankfully, most shades go with brown eyes, but... my favourites are definitely gold and green. This makeup look will probably work for everyone though and you can always use a cooler shade of green, if you are not sure about my vibrant choice :)

Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette Review


I am pretty sure I mention it every time I review Urban Decay products, but... their eye shadows are the best on the market and I  adore them! I get a lot of use out of every UD palette I own, even the Book Of Shadows Vol II, purchased over 4 years ago. Believe it or not, but all the shades are still creamy and super pigmented!  

The new Vice 2 Palette* (£42.00) features 20 new shades, all exclusive to this limited edition palette. You get a lot for your money and if you love Urban Decay- it is a bargain! The palette comes with a huge mirror inside (the biggest one I have seen so far) and a dual ended brush. I really like the purple packaging with a crystal UD logo. To open the palette, you simply push the long button on the front and the lid is released. Clever!

Autumn Eye Shadow Palettes: Urban Decay, The Balm, Clarins, Barry M, MUA, Laura Mercier, Eye Of Horus


Autumn is probably my favourite 'makeup season' and as soon as the weather becomes a bit chilly, I find myself reaching for eye shadow palettes on a daily basis. They all deserve more love and I always  feel horrible about neglecting them (a tiny bit) in Spring/Summer. I went through my eye shadow stash and picked some gorgeous palettes with earthy, brown and golden shades. I love warm eyes in Autumn, especially with a touch of burgundy or green.

Urban Decay Ammo Palette* (new 2013 edition)

If you own the original UD Ammo palette, you will know that the colours in this one are exactly the same. The only differences are:
