02.22.13 - Urban Decay (OZ): Glinda Palette

I don't know what it is about Urban Decay. Most of the time, whenever they come out with something new, I really want it. Most of the time ^_^; It could also be because they were my first high-end brand. 

I'm pretty sure everyone has seen these palettes already, but I already did swatches for them so TAA DAA! When they first came out with this, I was honestly very hesitant to get it. Usually, I'd just snatch it up right away. [Btw, I liked the Glinda palette more than the Theodora one. My friend pointed out that it was probably because my name's in the Glinda palette (My name is Linda, if you didn't know already ;P)] Well, I decided to wait...

Then my tax return arrived *dances* and this was the first thing I purchased. Yay! 

12.09.12 - Urban Decay NAKED BASICS

When I heard that Urban Decay was coming out with a smaller all-matte palette, I was all for it! That was awhile ago. I saw a sneak peak that someone posted on twitter and was wondering when it was going to come out. Lo and behold! A few weeks ago, they announced the Naked Basics palette. 

So I used the money I working on Black Friday and waited impatiently to get notified that it was on the website so I could buy it. I got the email notification while I was at work (lucky me, I can use my phone at work) and I tried to purchase it... It kept saying it was out of stock! I was so sad. One of my co-workers wanted to buy it too so she wanted to see if I could get it so SHE could get one also. (She can't have her phone on her... I'm in a higher position she is and am constantly contacted by the managers so... that's the only reason why I could have my phone. <--totally off topic ;P)

I was sad because it's being sold on the site first then you have to wait around February or something (I forgot) for it to show up in UlTA or Sephora... :/ But I was impatient and wanted it! Lol -_-;

Alas, I think the truth was they sent out the emails too early because when I got home, I was able to order it O_O;;; 

Anyway, that was my story LOL, here's the actual product >__>;

*halo sounds* Lol! Anyway, this is the packaging. If you know what the Vice Palette 's packaging was like...the NAKED BASICS has the same texture. It's quite sturdy so you can toss it in your bag and I did have it in my bag when I got it and it hasn't shattered.

12.09.12 - Laura Mercier Artist's Palette For Eyes

When Sephora had their Friends & Family sale... I got a few things. One of them was this:

What the box looks like... Nice and textured...
