Too Faced Eye Shadow Insurance Policy Swatches & Review

Heya!
I was extremely surprised with this palette as i have had some too faced products before and i was never a fan of the eye shadow formulation until this palette! 
I found this is Tk maxx and i think it was something stupid like £10 but the main reason i bought it was for the shadow insurance primer that comes with it which is very good too (:
The eyeshadow's are amazing! they're buttery and vivid and stay gorgeous all day long.



Full frontal - A shimmery purple/brown 
Glamazon - A shimmery taupe/grey/pink 


Socialite - A coppery/red brown 
Boy toy - A light shimmery baby pink 


Skinny dip - A dark shimmery gorgeous blue
Lucky Charms - A lovely shimmery green thats not too vibrant




I love the variety of colour's in this palette and how smooth they all are 
Although i would have preferred a matte shade in there somewhere it is only a small palette and because i love it so much i can ignore that :P

Urban Decay Anniversary Palette Swatches & Review!

Hey There! 
So i bought this ... AGES ago .. i absolutely love it to death! 
Its a very unique palette, its fun and great if you're feeling creative (:

 The top of my palette kinda got all strange (i spilled water on it and it got under the gems) i really don't know what happened haha! But all of the eyeshadow's are still perfect (:

Most of the colour's are very wearable. There are a lot of neutrals but they're not the usual neutral tones you would expect to see which is why i love this palette so much 




Midnight Rodeo - A gorgeous light brown taupe colour, it does have large flecks of glitter that are notorious with all of the midnight shades from urban decay that often cause a bit of fall out.

Tainted - A pale pink with a slight opalescent shimmer in it making it not quite a matte with an unusual white/blue undertone.

Deeper - My favourite colour out of the palette as its a gorgeous gold/brown.



Midnight 15 - Again a chunky glitter one but it doesn't have as much as midnight rodeo, its a light champagne/slightly pink colour.

Junkshow - A very hot pink matte shade.

M.I.A - A beautiful dark warm toned brown.


  
Vanilla - A gold/cream shade that's very shimmery.

Omen - a lovely almost duo chrome shade that looks purple but reflects more of a blue colour.

Ace - I'm not sure how to describe this colour other than it being a grey colour with some blue/green (like oil almost) it's a stunning eyeshadow!



Flow - A light peach/pink highlight colour.

Evidence - A rich deep blue shade.

Blackout - A matte black.



Chase - A peachy gold shimmery shade.

Deep end - A gorgeous aquamarine/blue/green colour.

Half truth - A pretty darker purple again with some blue reflect in it.

All of the eyeshadow's are creamy and lovely to work with, they all blend like a dream and the amount of looks you can create with this palette is endless. 
The packaging is safe and sturdy and i've travelled with it a lot. 
The packaging also turns into a trinket box as the eyeshadow sleeve can be taken out. 

I really love this palette and if Urban Decay do re promote it one day i would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes to try out different things and experiment a bit with their make up!
