The Urban Decay Sustainable Shadow Box contains all of the following shadows: YDK (Mocha with Gold Shimmer) Flipside (Teal) Grifter (Lilac with Silver Shimmer) Uzi (Metallic Silver) Twice Baked (Dark Brown with Gold Shimmer) Midnight Cowboy Rides Again( light Brown with Gold Shimmer) Flash (Bright Purple) Oil Slick (Black with Silver Shimmer) Kiddie Pool (Ocean Blue) Half Baked (Golden Bronze) This is YDK and midnight cowboy rides again. YDK is a mocha colour with a slight touch of shimmer. YDK is available as a single shadow and is also in the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette.  Midnight Cowboy Rides again is a light brown with lots of golden shimmer. Midnight Cowboy Rides Again is available as a single shadow. This is Flipside and Flash. Flipside is a lovely teal blue/green colour. It is a really easy colour to work wit

My Urban Decay collection

Hi Everyone, Ok, so Urban Decay has been my favourite brand of eye make up since I was 16. And it still is! I love the colours, the formulation, the edgy packaging and the numerous looks you can create from any of their palettes.                                                              This is my collection. One of my first things I ever bought from Urban Decay was an eye shadow,I used to stand for ages looking at the Urban Decay counter in awe of all the amazing products.                                                                    This is CRASH. The shadow is a deep plum / purple colour with microglitter. The one I have is in the old Urban Decay packaging and has unfortunately been discontinued.                                                      This is the sustainable shadow box                  which comes in a beautiful wooden box with butterflies and flower detailing. This product is available on www.urbandecay.com & www.houseoffraser.co.uk. Unfort

Yes!!It's Vanilya box time again. I always get excited when it comes to Vanilya box time. It is like getting a little present for myself in the post every month :) So this is what my box looks like this month. Lets have a look inside :) HELLO KITTY ! Ok as much as I love Hello Kitty this is not the type of stuff I was expecting to recieve in a Vanilya Box. On first impressions I think I will be giving these to my 4 year old daughter. Come on Vanilya box this is a subscription service for ADULTS!! Ok Lets have a closer look at the products. 20 Sticky Plasters  with 4 different designs- Just in case I fall and get a booboo. Dipliner -  An extreme black liquid eyeliner. This is the only thing in the box that I might possibly keep for myself. The only reason I will keep it is because I won't give my little daughter eyeliner :) Hello Kitty Lip Gloss in number 08 - It looks like a medium brown colour however, the formulation is extremely sticky.
