back to black





I posted about the Urban Decay 'Naked Palette' here and have been extremely happy with it; the colors are highly pigmented and long lasting and the variety of shades in the palette allows for a smorgasbord of looks and color combinations. I have literally only used this palette for the past few weeks.

Because I am so enamored with it I decided to purchase another Urban Decay palette. One single shadow at .05 oz costs $17, but why pay that when you can get multiple shadows, in this case .04 oz each, for $36? I bought this as part of Sephora's Chic Week, which I discussed here and was able to get it for 15% off.

Urban Decay's 'The Black Palette' comes with UD's darkest matte black shadow, 'Black Dog' and five black based jewel tone shadows; 'Barracuda' (silver), 'Jet' (purple), 'Sabbath' (blue), 'Cobra' (gold) and 'Libertine' (emerald). The palette also comes with a travel size '24/7 Glide on Pencil' in the color 'Zero' (black) and a mini primer potion in 'Eden'.

I've already begun playing with these shadows and can't wait to put together some really dramatic looks.
