Hello everyone! I know it's been a while since my last blog, but things have been a little crazy here. I'm taking two classes this summer, my boyfriend came in for a visit, my bff needed help moving and reorganizing her classroom, and we've been doing a lot of cleaning at home. So, I've been pretty busy!
One of my favorite things to do during my down time is to browse makeup websites, and nothing makes me happier than a sale at Urban Decay! Today my order came in, and of course I wanted to share it with you all.
Here are all my goodies, just waiting to be unwrapped! Christmas in June! :) Upon opening the package the first thing I noticed was a sample card for Urban Decay's newly formulated Moondust Eyeshadow in Moonspun (medium gray with bright silver sparkles).
The UD website describes the shadow saying "
Sparkly shadow goes ultra-sophisticated—with intense hues, microfine sparkle and lush, 3-D metallics." Now, I love UD shadows, but what I don't like is their glitter shadows. Usually their sparkly colors have a lot of fallout, so I'm not sure how this product will work. I'll let you know once I give it a try!
The first item I unwrapped was actually a gift for my mom. I purchased a single eyeshadow for her in the color Ransom. Out of the 60 UD eyeshadow colors I have, this is the only color she likes! It's a beautiful purple, plus I was able to get it on sale for $4! Check out the cute packaging; mom was very happy with this gift.
Next was an item that I've been wanting to try for a long time: Big Fatty Mascara! Normally this mascara costs $20 a tube, which is a bit too expensive for me. However, I found a double pack for $22! Double the product for only $2 more? I added it to my cart too quick to talk about!
The tubes are huge, so this was a great buy. I was very happy with the brush, which has rubber bristles. I've loved rubber bristles ever since I got my first Mary Kay Lash Love, so I am super excited to try this product!
The last item that I'm going to be talking about in this post is the 24/7 Double-Ended Pencil Duo Set. I adore the 24/7 liners, and whenever I buy palettes from UD, I'm always pumped if they come with one of these liners. This set is a great deal; you get four different 24/7 shades plus the UD Grind House pencil sharpener--for $19! Normally one liner costs that much. While these are not full size, it was still too good to pass up.
I swatched all of them, and each went on so smoothly. The formula is creamy and long-lasting. If you've not tried them, you really need to--SOON!
Colors: Uzi (dark gunmetal shimmer with silver micro-sparkle); Empire (dark eggplant matte); Corrupt (dark metallic reddish brown shimmer with silver micro-sparkle); and Zero (my personal favorite black eyeliner).
Also, check out the detail on this sharpener! So, so pretty!
The last item I purchased in this haul is one that I have been eyeing for a while...but you're going to have to wait until my next blog post to see it! Trust me, it'll be worth the wait. Until then, feel free to leave me a comment or ask a question below. Peace & love! <3
