Now you understand why I was excited to stumble upon the Book of Shadows III in Sephora on the Champs Elysees.
Without any further ado, I present to you Urban Decay Book of Shadows III: UD NYC
It lights up and everything! LOL |
Swatches:
Zero (black) & Ransom (shimmery purple) |
Verdict:
Great value. Especially if like me, you are looking to try out Urban Decay products without investing in individual eye shadows (they cost €16 each). The eye shadows are highly pigmented; my swatches are the result of one swipe and no eye shadow base. The pencils give a good color pay off too, with little effort.
The pack is very artsy and pretty, it lights up and everything! That creates a it a bit of a collectors item feel to it. The top does not stay open on its own though, you need to hold it. It has a mirror on the top half and all the products in a drawer (that can be pulled out completely) just below. It is quite bulky but you can pull out the product layer when in use.
Like I said its great value. For €45 you get 16 shades of eye shadow, two miniature pencils and a miniature version of their world famous eye shadow primer potion plus the pretty deco on the top LOL.
I got my Urban Decay Book of Shadows Vol III
10 days ago (the day after it arrived :-). If you want one, you will need to hurry because it is a limited edition (even if it has appeared in Paris months after the initial launch ;P)
TTFN Divas!
