Urban Decay.

I recently purchased the Urban Decay Vice Palette and I swear to god I am in love with it! Well in all honesty I'm in love with every palette Urban Decay come out with. My first palette that I ever owned was Urban Decay, so I think that's why I love them so much, I was so infatuated with this palette, ( I can't even remember what it was called, it was that long ago) that I literally used it every single day, spending hours on my eyes, and trying to use every colour in the palette because I thought they were so beautiful. I was 15 and working in a photography studio at the time, about 40 minutes from where I lived, and I would get up a few hours early to make sure I could use the palette. I can remember working in there, and I had done my eyes so beautifully, using the colours of the rainbow with a thick black liner, and I was talking to a customer, and they stopped mid- conversation and told me my eyes were mesmerising, I was so taken back and happy that someone had noticed the effort I was making, it was the first time I ever thought I was actually good at something, and had a hint of what it was I wanted to do. I often think of that person in a weird way, and wonder whether they realised what an impact their compliment had on me. It may have taken a few more years to actually get my life together and start working towards it, but they definitely had a part to play.

Anyway, back to the Urban Decay palettes, it's not just a sentimental part of me that keeps on buying and loving their products, the colour pigments are truly amazing, they have some of the brightest range of colours about, which I love, I find it so hard to find coloured shadows about, the fashion at the moment, is all nude colours and being more natural (which I love) but it's really nice to stand out every so often, and don't get me wrong Urban Decay made the nude looks huge with their Naked Palettes, really starting that trend, which was huge for a company more known for their bolder colours. Their eyeliners are amazing, and don't even get me started on their foundations and concealers because I will literally be here all day! I just love the quality of their products so much, it's all cruelty free as well, which is huge for me. And not to mention the Gwen Stefani collaboration, ujhfjfjbhrbfhbsr!! I need that blush palette in my life!

I'm so excited to get the new 'Alice, through the looking glass' palette at the end of the month, I'll let you guys know how I get on with it and do some swatches for you :)

Anyway, I've created a few beautiful looks with the new Vice palette so I thought I'd share them with you guys :)
