Urban Decay Eye Makeup

11/26/12 | Beauty, makeup, Urban Decay

If you do not know by now,  I am a big makeup girl.  Most days I do subtle makeup to enhance my features and after years of experimenting I have found what works for me and while NARS is my favorite brand for my face, I have to give Urban Decay credit for eyes. After trying dozens of products I have found certain one’s that work for me:

YDK eyeshadow / primer / eyeliner pencil / liquid eyeliner
When I want to venture away from my everyday routine the first place I start is my Book of Shadows 4.  I often use the Blue Bus and the Gravity colors as eyeliner and the white iridescent Zepher for the inner corners of my eyes:
similar / similar 
My good friend KateLyn and I love playing with makeup! She lives about 2,000 miles away from me now but this is one thing we will always bond over!

                 Do you like Urban Decay? What is your favorite make up brand for eye makeup?

    I never used urban decay (think it’s not available in Germany)
    This palette looks great – but why does it include an usb-cable??

    I’ve never used Urban Decay but have always been interested in their products. The packaging is unique and the names of their stuff is always clever. But I never knew if their makeup was worth the money. Now I think I’ll give it a try!

    I love Urban Decay for eye makeup! I would say they’re one of the best for me. ๐Ÿ™‚ I also love that shadow ‘YDK’ in the Naked Palette 2. It’s the one I use most in it. haha.. I want to buy a single shadow of it when I run out!

    I like the eye-shadow called ‘Hijack’ in your palette. Looks awesome! ๐Ÿ™‚

    My personal fave brands? Two actually, that I first encountered through my Mother’s use of them… the old european brands ‘Margaret Astor’ & ‘Jade’.

    But aside from that, I am open for every brand that satisfies me, however cheap or pricy it may be.

    I have the same palette! Though I like UD a lot, my fave shadows are from Too Faced. They have so much sparkle!

    I love Urban Decay! They’re definitely my favourite eye makeup brand! Their palettes are always gorgeous and their Primer Potion is amazing! I love their 24/7 glide on eye pencils but they’re so expensive I haven’t gotten one in ages!
