I'd always heard good things about the brand, Urban Decay. So during my trip to the USA last year I picked up an eyeshadow - I was in need of a new silver eyeshadow.
Urban Decay did not disappoint.
I went with the colour S&M. It's a darker, shimmery grey.
Packaging: I like the eyeshadow packaging, it feels good quality, and isn't flimsy.
Colour/Wearability - As above, this is a dark grey colour with a shimmer. It's a bit darker than the silver I normally use. So It's not something I wear everyday - for a subtle smokey eye etc. It's great for a more dramatic look, good for night time wear.
What I love the most about this product is the pigmentation and durability. It is so pigmented, and that is important to me. There's nothing that puts me off a product more than it being almost unnoticeable. So this is exactly what I'm after.
And what's even better than that? You don't really need to use a primer (of course, that will help the longevity of the shadow, but perfectly fine without one). It lasts really well on your eyes.
Overall: Love, love, love. I've ordered another one, to see if this isn't just a one of good buy. My next shade is Oil Slick, and I'm looking forward to receiving that.
If that one is a highlight for me, then I will definitely be having a collection of them at some point!
5/5
It's Friday, and what's even better about this Friday is it's also a public holiday for me!
Oh, and that means, here is my latest edition of Favourite Things Friday.
Lipstick: Limecrime - Babette
This is also a sneak peak of a review coming soon...I'm absolutely loving this lipstick right now.
I got it a while ago, and it is definitely my go-to lipstick. But I won't go into too much detail about it now, stay tuned for a full review in the next few days.
Eyeshadow: Urban Decay - S&M
I bought this from a Sephora on my trip to the USA last year, and it's great. It's so pigmented and lasts so well. Urban Decay is a pretty famous brand when it comes to eyeshadows (or makeup in general) due to their Naked palettes. And it's no wonder why. A full review also coming soon.
Foundation: Natio - Full Coverage (Light Medium)
It's quite hard to find a good, yet affordable foundation. But this one is mine. Natio's full coverage liquid foundation. It has a really good coverage, and is only about $25. It lasts me a good few months, and the shade is good for my skin tone.
That's my favourites for this week! Have a great weekend.
