Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette Review

Hi Guys.. Finally I've got my UD Gwen Stefani in my arms!!

As a  90’s child, No Doubt is one of my favorite group band and absolutely Gwen Stefani as well as the female singer. Not a fanatic fans, but I can't remember how many times I sung out the “Don’t Speak” to “Sweet Escape”  and admire her look
ok that’s enough of throwback..

This collaboration is a dream come true for her and her fanatic fans.. and if you're not her fans probably you don't want to miss this collection

Dream come true!!! 💋💄❤️ #UDxGwen #magicisinthemakeup

Packaging

The outer box design is inspired by her love of Gold and White stripe graphic prints

the inner box design is red with white dots,, very surprising..

I love the case material, it is sturdy and the design is so glam with the antique gold color
also has a magnetic enclosure as an addition to its luxury

they also put "Magic's In The Makeup" (inspired by her songs, No Doubt) on its huge mirror

The Palette

This palette included 15 must have shades, 12 shades are new (based on Gwen's wish to have in her collection) and 3 shades are from the UD previous collection. Most of the shades are neutral, cool-toned and wearable. but some of them are bold color and shimmery

As you can see these shades are the interpretation of how to get Gwen's look.
she always wear neutral eyeshadow, black eyeliner and red lips (sometime neutral lips) for years and she always looks fabulous from time to time. overall my favorite is Anaheim and Zone for crease shading/contouring (yes I do contour with eyeshadow palette => )
Bathwater and Blonde for highlighting, Stark for transition color, Pop and Harajuku which is so cute and sassy for eyelids.

I think these shades has all the color that you will need if you're the person whom always confused either should buy a naked 1, naked 2 or 3..

Pros:
-the texture of the neutral color are buttery
-the colors are very pigmented
-long lasting
-easy to apply
-wearable for daily look


Cons:

-the packaging size is too big for traveling


Oh and I almost forgot, it comes with the lipstick sample too
