Urban Decay: Born to Run Palette
Price
If you are a compulsive palette buying especially higher end, then this price will not phase you. The palette itself is £39.50 for 21 eyeshadows, that I think personally isn't that bad. When Urban Decay usually make a palette they usually only have small pans and usually 12 shades, so for 21 eye shadows I am not complaining.
Packaging
What I loved about this palette was how quirky and different the packaging is compared to their other palettes. It is a very lightweight and travel friendly.
Colours and pigmentation
Lets talk colours! This palette has the most stunning variety of different colours with a mixture of matte shades and the most amazing shimmers! Every time I look at this palette it makes me want to get crazy experimental with colours! Below are some swatches of every colour in the palette (row by
row)
I think out of all the swatches my favourite row is the second row as it has a lot of orange shade in that which I am absolutely living for at the moment!
As for the pigmentation of the shades I really cannot fault them, all the swatches were done on a clean finger, no setting spray nor brush. I found some of the matte shades were a little chalky but I think if you applied them on the lid with a brush that would work in your favour!
Favourite colour : Ignite
Least Favourite: Still Shot

Love Urban Decay, what a fab post! The shades are gorgeous xx
ReplyDeleteMe too, they were the first higher end brand I ever bought. This palette is another level! x
DeleteThis honestly looks like the best palette Urban Decay have released in ages! I appreciated their Naked palettes when I was new to makeup but they're far too expensive for what they are now I look back on when I bought them. The pigmentation and colour range looks far better in this palette, I'm actually tempted to get it now!

Couldn't agree more with what you're saying, they have always been my first love when it came to make up. However I get what you mean when the Naked 1,2,3 came out I was so young and knew hardly nothing so they were the only palettes I could use! Its an amazing palette 100% recommend

I'm a big urban decay fan and havent got this palette. I'm supposed to be saving money, but theres always money for make up right?! X
ReplyDeleteI've been lusting after this since it was released and completely agree you can't complain at the price when you usually get 12 smaller pans for the same price! Your swatches look fab!
