'Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette' (Picture Heavy!)

I am seriously backed up on posts at the moment, but this simply could not wait! I just received the Urban Decay 15 Year Anniversary Palette and let me tell you, it's love! =)

So let's get on with it!!

Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette

Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette

Keep reading for more photos & swatches...

The moment I heard this palette was coming out I knew I had to have it! I'm not a collector of Urban Decay palettes, so for me to buy it says a lot. My only other Urban Decay palette is the NAKED palette, which I will be doing comparisons of in another post!

Okay, on to swatches! I did them going across the palette from top to bottom... fyi :)

left to right: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Midnight Rodeo", "Tainted", "Deeper"

Midnight Rodeo... This is a beautiful taupe/brown infused with gold glitter

Tainted... A pink/lavender with a golden sheen, and super pigmented! It reminds me of a NARS eye shadow I have... comparisons to come!

Deeper... This is a dark brown/bronze with a sort of golden sheen.

left to right: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Midnight 15", "Junkshow", "M.I.A."

Midnight 15... This is a beautiful champagne, frosty color. Perfect for the inner corner!

Junkshow... I looove this color! So of course it's hard to capture in a photograph :) haha This is a fuschia/purple with an amazing blue sheen. Super dimensional and pigmented!

M.I.A.... This is a deep brown with a subtle sheen. It's red-based and almost coppery.

left to right: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Vanilla", "Omen", "ACE"

Vanilla... I have been looking for a gold-y highlight color, and this is it! It's a yellow-based, white gold. Amazing!

Omen... This color has such dimension! It's a purple with a blue-base, and is infused with pink! So pretty =)

ACE... This is almost like a gun-metal color but a bit lighter and with a bit more blue. It also has a nice, not over-powering, sheen.

left to right: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Flow", "Evidence", "Blackout"

Flow... This is a peachy color with a frosty, high sheen finish.

Evidence... This is a deep dark blue. As you can see in the photo above it has a beautiful lighter blue sheen, but from some angles can almost look dark gray. I love it! It's one of those shadows that you can wear all by itself, packed on and sheered out, and will look like you are wearing 2 different shadows!

Blackout... Your typical matte black. Nicely pigmented and a very smooth texture.

left to right: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Chase", "Deep End", "Half Truth"

Chase... This is a gold/bronze with a nice sheen. It looks a bit warmer in person than it does on this swatch!

Deep End... A teal blue/green, again with a nice sheen. It goes amazingly with Chase and Half Truth for a sort of mermaid/peacock look!

Half Truth... This is a slightly darkened purple with a fairly neutral base. Depending on what you pair it with it can look like it's either blue-based or slightly red-based. A great versatile purple!

left to right, top to bottom: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette "Vanilla", "Omen", "ACE"
second row: "Flow", "Evidence", "Blackout"
third row: "Chase", "Deep End", "Half Truth"

I will say some of the neutrals are similar to a few in the NAKED Palette, but the colors in this palette are just gorgeous!! This has definitely re-inspired me to do some fun makeup looks =) I highly recommend it!

Have you checked out this palette?!
