The Urban Decay Electric Pressed Pigment Palette

This is probably my ultimate favorite this summer of 2014!
Read on to see why ^^

The Urban Decay Electric Pressed Pigment Palette

What it is:

A bright collection of 10 velvety, pressed-pigment shadows that deliver an insane color payout.

What it does:
The ultimate fix for color addicts, this palette features smooth mattes and highly-dimensional shimmery shades. Each soft, creamy, long-wearing powder is electrically colorful, and carefully crafted with a smooth formula that applies vibrantly. Pressed pigments create heavily saturated bright shades that make eyelids pop. The oversize palette features an extra-large mirror and double-sided precision brush for easy application on the go.

Final thoughts:

The pigmentation is superb. It lasts despite the harsh LA heat and sweat from all that dancing and partying! Colors selection is just right and enough to create different looks each day. The price is a bit heavy to bear to buy for myself, but this palette received so much love from us and is just the perfect gift my diva little sis. And as to why and how I purchased this, I heard about this palette earlier this year. And when I did see videos of youtubers who got a hold of this before the rest of the world, I immediately thought of my younger sis. She loves loud and wild colors. This was a perfect fit for her. Her birthday was on May and this was no where to be found in my local Sephora. Good thing that I spent a week in Vegas and found this there! I do not regret purchasing this for her because we were able to use it so much this summer for competing and getting glammed up for Anime Expo and parties! Which reminds me that this is the second Urban Decay palette I bought and gifted to her. And in comparison to the Ammo Palette, this is so much better! If you like being as shockingly colorful as we are, you must buy this!

When we weren't in competition mode.
You can't see mine, but Gabby and Dioselene looked good for Anime Expo 2014 Day 1!

I assigned the color Chaos for Dioselene and made it a heavy smoky eye for our dance competitions.

As for me, Thrash was my color!
I went for the same heavy smoky eye, so we can look fierce on stage! ^^
Plus, I don think that it matches my EOS Ice Green lenses, as well.

A beautiful palette and definitely worth it.
