Urban Decay Smoked Palette Smokey Eye Detailed Pictorial!

Hello Angels,

A smokey eye is a very versatile tool to have in your makeup repertoire.  It is very easy to wear during the day, in a professional setting, provided the right shades in the correct amounts are used.  As promised, here for your viewing pleasure is a detailed pictorial of everything I did to achieve this look:

 I used MAC Constructivist as as base and the following UD Smoked Palette colors:

Barlust, Backdoor, Blackout and Mushroom
















Consttructivist as a base/primer










Barlust on lid fro lashes to just above crease


Backdoor over eyelid from lashline to just below crease, or the mobile lid (to create a gradient of color)


 Blackout layered over backdoor, and this time cover even slightly less of the mobile lid

 

Blend, blend blend!!!!
Next Feline pencil to tightline the lower eyelid, and smudged along the lower lashline.  Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Perversion for the upper eyelid

  And......  Mascara (Benefit "They're Real!" is my current fave)

HAPPY PAINTING!!!!!

Urban Decay Smoked palette review

Hello Angels!
So I finally broke down while purchasing staples at my local Sephora and bought... The Urban Decay Smoked palette! If you're familiar with the brand then you know that they make eyeshadow colors with lots of pigment to suit all skin tones.
This palette rocks, so I wanted to share it with you. It's just as described-- 10 gorgeous shades that allow you to achieve that superstar smoky eyeshadow look we all love. But wait! There's more!

Tipping the scales for me was the inclusion in the box of a travel-sized UD eyeshadow primer as well as a full-sized 24/7 Glide-on Perversion eyeliner pencil! All for the price of $49.00! (This is exciting because the pencil alone retails for $19.00). The kit also comes with a handy detailed application guide that teaches you how to create several looks using all the colors in the palette.
 
Personally, I love the fact that when I travel, now I can bring this compact palette along and easily be ready to glam it up with a nice variety of colors!
Happy shopping!!
