Urban Decay Get Baked Eyeshadow Palette ($28) Blaze it up with a hit of our most gorgeous bronzy shades, rolled up into a super slim palette. Our universally flattering collection delivers three neutral favorites from our best-selling “Baked” collection (Baked, Half Baked, and Twice Baked), an electric shade of teal (Flipside), and a travel-sized 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Bourbon.
It’s the first time we’ve offered our long-lasting 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils or Sin Eyeshadow Primer Potion as part of a palette! Sin is a shimmery, champagne version of our classic Primer – try it alone or under a shadow. All Urban Decay Eyeshadows contain very few binders for effortless blending and true color.
The super-slim palette features a brown Pucci-inspired exterior and “Get Baked” in electric blue foil. Blue and white flora create a contrasting backdrop to the neutral Eyeshadows inside. The case is complete with a handy mirror and a magnetic closure.
My Thoughts:
I recently picked this up at South Coast Plaza’s Macy’s, and I LOVE it. It’s perfect for summer! Not only that, but this palette is such a steal for me. I love Urban’s 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Bourbon and also Baked, Half Baked, and Twice Baked eye shadows. So, getting this palette was a no brainer for me. You can read my review of 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil to see my opinion. The eye shadows are really great. They are long lasting, pigmented, and blendable. Definitely one of the best eye shadows out there. Sin Eyeshadow Primer Potion works just as great as the original with a bit of shimmer. I just can’t get over how much I love this palette!

Lorac Eye Shadow ($18) This unique, long-lasting, non-irritating gentle formula is infused with soothing botanicals such as Calendula and Cornflower. Shade, shadow and define with this versatile range of color that can be used wet or dry to create any Red Carpet look you desire.
My Thoughts:
I really like Lorac eye shadows. They are so easy to blend and last all day. I was actually introduced to the Lorac eye shadows quite awhile ago by Sephora through the Beauty Insider program. The eye shadows are really pigmented and a little goes a long way. Even though these eye shadows contain shimmer, it’s more of a beautiful glowing shimmer. It’s perfect for the day and night. The screw lids could be better, but something I can ignore. I really recommend Lorac eye shadows. They don’t receive much attention, and I think they should. They great!

Sweep these luxurious, shimmering shadow duos across lids for a truly smoldering look. The velvety cashmere texture glides on for buildable color and blends smoothly for looks that last. Wicked Lovely Eye Shadow Duos ($24 now $18) can be worn day or night to smoke out or light up eyes.
My Thoughts:
These eye shadow duos come in two colors (left to right): sinful/pure and sexy/demure. Both of these eyeshadows are great for smokey eyes. They are highly pigmented and long lasting. They even lasted through a sweaty concert! The colors contain a bit of shimmer. Not so shimmery that it glitters, but an attractive shimmer.

Cargo Eye Shadow Duo ($20) are amazing! For a powder shadow, they are creamy smooth. They are also silky and majorly pigmented. A total must-have.

Smashbox Eye Shadow Trio ($28) is a great buy. I am a huge fan! They are wonderfully pigmented, blendable, and lasts all day. All the color combinations are beautifully coordinated. The eye shadows are easy to use and apply. They are also versatile. You can use the shadows as eyeliner.
