This palette consists of 10 shimmery shadows

that I think would be perfect for subtle to dramatic looks.

 

 It is a lot smaller then some of the other palettes they make and

is alot more light weight, it is about the size of my hand.

It's more of a compact then a palette to me.

It has a velvet feel to package design and

comes with a mirror and sponge eyeshadow applicator blush.

I also like that it has a magnetic closure as well.

 

 

 I swatched these shadows using the UD primer potion as my base. As you can see they are all very shimmery and more on the neutral side. This would be a great palette to use for weddings because it can look great on all skin tones. I really love each shade and a little bit goes a long way.

I truly like this palette quite a bit, this is a great little shimmer palette that

will easily fit into my makeup case or purse.

 

 

For my eye look I used the AMMO compact shades:

Smog/Mildew/Oil Slick/Sin/Polyester Bride

 

I also used some other great My Beauty Addiction products:

Goddess Bronzer

Fantasy Dazzle Dust

#6 Powder Honey

Urban Decay SMOKED palette Look & Review

 

 

Today I tried out the Urban Decay SMOKED palette from MY BEAUTY ADDICTION.

On the website it states that this is a replica item, but it was extremely hard to tell the difference.

The quality is definately there and you get a lot out of this kit for the great price of only $28.

You get:

 Zippered Palette with the 10 eyeshadow shades

Mirror

Eyeshadow Primer Potion (squeeze tube)

Perversion 25/7 Glide-On eye pencil

 "How to Look" book with 11 look tutorials and information on brushes, how to prep your face,

and tricks for common makeup problems

 

 

 These 10 shadows are 4 mattes and 6 shimmer shades.

This palette can give you a huge variety of smoked looks. The shades are wonderful alone or blend well together no matter which shades you put chose.

 

 I swatched each shade using the enclosed Primer Potion as the base. The base itself is wonderful and well-loved by many makeup artists and tends to be a must-have primer. I really like the squeezed tube. The color of the primer is a skin tone and blends so easily.

 Each shade was swatched using my finger with just one swipe. The shades can be darker by layering the color. I was pleasantly surprised how pigmenented and vibrant they are.

ALL equally GORGEOUS! The eye pencil Perversion that came with the palette was also a wonderful pencil. I've tried so many pencils and this is probably the best pencil I have ever touched.

I love the pointy tip and the color wasn't overly black.

It was easy to layer and make the desired color depth I was looking for

without making those 'racoon' eyes, that most pencils tend to give.

 

 

 This is my look using this palette, I went for a softer smoked look today.

I used the primer potion as my base and the shadows:

Kinky, Freestyle, Backdoor, Blackout, and Barlust

I used the pencil as well.

On my lips I used Coral Crush lipstick by My Beauty Addiction

 

Overall I love this palette and everything that came with it. It's a great product!
