Make up Monday with Urban Decay

So over the weekend I was invited into Urban Decay for the launch of their summer collection.
The weather was beyond crappy and dull beyond belief, but my God will the new collection brighten your mood.The summer collection is full of stunning vibrant shades guaranteed to give you the most up to date look to your make up.








 First up is of course the Lip gloss.....Revolution High Colour Lip gloss which comes  in 14 beautiful shades
Now obviously as my name suggests I freaking love lip gloss and they are not all created equally. These glosses are so pigmented they are super long lasting but they are not sticky. I HATE sticky gloopy lip glosses. You know the kind when you open your mouth and get those stringy bits at the edges.. that is NOT going to happen with these. The shine is unreal its like a lacquer on your lip giving a real wet look. These are a sexy sophisticated way to wear lip gloss.Retails for €19 and there is a waiting list for the purple as it sold out on the day it was launched.




Next up are the eye shadows..8 stunning new shades which cover blue,purple,green,browns,pinks and some amazing two-tone shades.
The shadows retail for €18 and can be popped out and put into the travel pallet if you have one..ideal for going on holidays etc.
The pigmentation of the shadows is incredible and they are whisper soft to the touch,so they will not settle into any pesky lines you might have.



Last up is the blusher.....Afterglow 8hr powder blush (no offence to UD but calling this 8hr was a mistake it last a LOT longer)
 These come in 12 incredible shades ranging for a subtle coral/brown to a vivid purple and even a red/burnt orange.Now I'm not going to lie when i saw the vivid colours i was a little scared, but as Cathryn and Jamie pointed out if you are tanned or darker skinned it is very hard to get blush to show up on your skin. These colours look amazing on darker/tanned skinned.They really make your skin pop and look alive.
I love the packaging of the blushes..I'm a sucker for nice packaging i really get seduced by the packaging..if its crap I'm not going to purchase it. Urban's packaging is on-point!!!
The blush retail for  €28 and is worth every cent.


If you are not familiar with Urban Decay they have some amazing products.

Their Naked Skin  foundation is gorgeous and buildable without looking caked on the face.It is oil free and paraben free as is most of the range actually. The foundation comes in 18 shades.The foundation also comes in tones..so pink toned or yellow toned in each shade so finding a perfect match is very easy. (Review to follow) Retails for €37 and is a 30ml size.


Their best selling mascara Perversion Mascara is a lenghtening and volumizing formula. It has a gorgeous creamy texture and it is blackest black. It is very buildable. You can add layer after layer of this and it will not clump.The twisted trim on the brush latches on to each lash to separate and define.. It pulls through lashes smoothly and lays down a generous amount of product. No need to wiggle the wand or manoeuvre it at all different angles!(Full review to follow ) Retails for €22.


Now drum roll please.....I didn't know a product like this existed but its the Ultimate Ozone Multipurpose Pencil retails for €19.
So big deal Claire its a pencil..NO ITS NOT..this is a magic wand! You can use this little beauty to erase any make up mistakes you have made.
Putting on red lipstick and its goes outside the lip line...Not a problem grab this wonder stick and it removes it in a flash.
Putting on your mascara and you blink before its dry and get mascara on your eyelid ...one swipe of this pencil and its gone. A must own product that can also be used to temporarily erase your wrinkles!!!
Full review on even more Urban Decay products coming in the next few weeks XXX
