Book of shadows vol 2 by Urban Decay

A make up palette that i’ve been looking for a long time. There it was when i found it on my trip to Paris at Sephora.

Urban Decay always comes up with a chic and edgy design for their shadows.

Book of shadows vol 2 glides out in a drawer style. It is quite popular in the UK and the States. What are people raving about it? Well… it’s about the colors! And you have that in one palette on the go. It comes with their very popular in travel size eye shadow primer “Potion” and glide on eye liner in black & brown. I bought a regular size for the “potion” and i love it. Much better eye shadow base than the Mac i’m using. It brighten up your eye shadow colors and most important thing is that it doesn’t smudge. I don’t feel my Mac shadow primer really brighten up the shadow and i feel it still smudge my colors. I especially love it cause i wear eye liner very near my lash line and usually by half the day it kinda get smudge on the bottom of my eye but when i use potion it doesn’t &keep my eyes clean throughout the day ^_^

My favourite color is Flipside, Jinx, AC/DC, Midnight Cowboy, Homegrown erm…. well most of it, LOL.The palette consist of colors in all the range. From day to night and highlights. Urban Decay’s shadows has very thick pigments. All you need to do is lightly apply the shadow. Otherwise it will look very thick. A little can go a long way.

Usually i’ll just wear a light color all over my eyes with some eye liner, mascara and i’m done. Or if i feel like wearing a little more color i will just add a little definition on the outer corner of my eyes with AC/DC so that there’s some depth in the eyes.(don’t have to look smokey all the time) With a palette like that it has great combination and all you need to do is to play around with it and try to mix and match. I haven’t tried everything yet, as soon as i do, i’ll take some pics and review about it.

The whole palette cost around Rm230 i think in some other website you might able to get it around Rm180. It is not available in Malaysia. For that cost i think it’s still very affordable for such a wide range for a color palette. It’s great for traveling and in fact for anything. 1 palette on the go!

Till next time…
