Urban Decay palette

 It seems silly sometimes to buy make-up when I get so much of it for free or through my blogging.  I do however have a serious soft side for Urban Decay palettes and I couldn't resist this one! I found myself in the beauty section of Debenhams yesterday. I don't normally go in there but I couldn't resist it.

 The palette was a total guilty pleasure. It was £19.50 which is amazing considering it was just under £49.50 before the sale. There are plus sides and negatives to the palette. For one, the packaging is awful. I originally thought it was a bit swish until I realised how annoying it actually is. It's heavy and fiddly which means that I can't bring it with me on shoots. It's for my own personal use.  The positives are that it has excellent color pay off and there are some handy shades in there.

I do respect Urban Decay for their stance on animal testing and they continue to provide excellent cosmetics. I have two other products from them - their eyeshadow primer and a powder that I bought in France which is awful. It's yellow and looks yellow on the skin.
