Urban Decay Vegan Palette

When it comes to eyeshadow, I think it's better to splurge. I mostly hate drugstore eyeshadow quality. The chalkiness, unpigmented colors, and short lasting of cheap eyeshadow often frustated me. As if I need to face more difficult obstacle in my life...

Anyway, this is one of Urban Decay's Limited Eyeshadow Palette. According to Sephora website, this palette is printed with soy-based inks on recycled packaging. This set contains 6 x 0.03 oz Eyeshadows: Minx, Urb, Gunmetal, Baked, Smog, Half-Baked; 0.03 oz Travel-size 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero; 0.13 oz Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Sin.







The thing I looooooove about Urban Decay (beside their obvious pigmented-buttery formula and amazing color selection) is their packaging. They often collaborated with famous graphic artist to design it. Can you see the cute helpless deer in the eyeshadow box? Aaaw, heart-breaking... I'm not a vegetarian, and never intented to be, but if you can help those poor animals from suffering, for the sake of your makeup addiction, why not eh?


see the writing? "we don't do animal testing how could anyone?" yeaay for urban decay.





The palette comes with a small mirror, a travel size 24/7 Glide on Pencil in color Zero (black), and a travel size eye Primer Potion in Sin (shimmering champagne color - very pretty). The eyeliner and eye primer is one of the best eye makeup product in this planet. So yes this palette is a very good value for money. The original price tag is $34, but I got it on sale for 200.000 idr ($22).
The only downside from this palette is the glittters from Minx, Urb, Gunmetal. They keep falling everywhere! Once I grocery shopping with my son wearing these, and he ended up having glitter everywhere, even in his hairscalp (yea, bad mommy). Other than that, this palette is worth to have.
