Urban Decay 15th Anniversary

Urban Decay, the beauty brand with an edge, is celebrating its 15th year anniversary this year! Other than already having a whole host of amazing products under its belt including the Urban Decay Naked Palette, Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 and holding the title for being the brand with one of the best make up primers around, the Urban Decay Primer Potion, my favourite make up brand is taking things one step further on their 15th birthday.

They’ve launched a limited edition collectable set of fifteen full-sized 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils with six brand-new never seen before shades and a sharpener to always keep your pencils on point! I’ve tried the Glide-On Eye Pencils previously and I adore the smoothness of the pencil. They dont call it the Glide-On Eye Pencil for nothing. It truly lives up to its name – just glide your pencil across your eyelid for instantly lined eyes.

I’ve seen the liners in Sephora Singapore. But as much as I love Urban Decay, I’m not too sure about the practicality of owning 15 eye liners in various colours unless you do stage make up on a regular basis. Give me the browns, blacks and whites anytime.

Are you a fan of Urban Decay? Would you buy this limited edition Urban Decay Glide-On Eye Pencil set?

First it came in Original and the Eden garden. Next, Urban Decay asked you to join them in Sin. And now, if your deadly sin is Greed, this is for you.

Urban Decay Primer Potion Greed

The Urban Decay Primer Potion is by far one of the best make up primers around. Newbies in make up probably wont use make up primers, but I’m starting to think it’s quickly earning a regular spot in my basic make up must haves.

Urban Decay has been very clever with reinventing their make up primers. They’ve introduced 2 previous colours – Eden and Sin, with their Primer Potions and now the third tinted Primer Potion, Greed, is a shimmering gold. The perfect embodiment of the deadly sin its named after.

What I really love about the Urban Decay Primer Potion is its great versatility. Thanks to its tint, you can wear on its own ala cream eyeshadow, or even as a radiant brow bone highlighter. Of course, you’d also use it for its original purpose of giving you more intense eyeshadow colours sans creases.

Already available on Sephora.com, I wonder when this Urban Decay Primer Potion will hit the counters of Sephora Singapore. Ah yes, Greed. Such a perfect adjective for describing my make up desires. But with a colour like that, wouldnt you say my desires are warranted?

I hope you honestly didnt think that I would step into Sephora Singapore on their 1st birthday bash and leave with only ONE eyeshadow palette did you? The Urban Decay Naked Palette is a massively hot seller and I had to pick it up that very day because it was fresh from delivery!

Urban Decay Naked Palette

The moment the Urban Decay Naked Palette (SGD 73) hit the shelves of Sephora Singapore, it sold out within a day. When I heard the news, I was devastated. But I absolutely refuse to queue for my make up so I tried to get the coveted palette from the Sephora stores overseas. Sadly, my valiant attempts were met with failure because they too were sold out in the States!

Urban Decay Singapore Naked Palette

It’s easy to see why the Urban Decay Naked Palette is highly sought after. The rich chocolate brown velvet surface opens up to reveal 12 multifaceted neutral shades that promise to take you from everyday neutral to deep and smouldering. Throw in some summer bronzed looks and you’re all set to rock any sort of situation with this palette. Packed with Urban Decay’s best make up primer, the Urban Decay Primer Potion, and two eyeliners, the Urban Decay Naked Palette is most certainly the best companion for the girl who is comfortable naked. ;)

Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3

Happy Birthday Sephora Singapore! Thank you for being one of my absolute favourite make up stores in Singapore. I’m so glad you opened up here in Singapore because you stock absolutely everything that a make up collector junkie like me could ever want.

It was just yesterday, literally, that I made my way down to Sephora Sinagpore get the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3. It also happened to be their very 1st birthday! I was really lucky I got my hands on one of these amazing palettes because there were loads of people in the store. Sephora Singapore had stocked so many pretty packages all wrapped in bows, perfect for gifts for Christmas and people were shopping themselves silly. But I was only there for one thing.

Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 Palette Swatch

I now have another eyeshadow palette to add to the obscene number of existing palettes I have in my make up bag. What did I tell you about the Book of Shadows being gorgeous? It was bigger than I expected too!

When I first set eyes on it, I was stunned. My heart skipped a beat and I couldnt believe that the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 was within my reach. At the same time, however, I was taken aback by its size. It really is almost the size of a book! But since I missed the Alice in Wonderland Book of Shadows, I didnt want to miss out on this one too. Another reason I HAD to have it was the fact NYC held so many great memories for me when I was there this year.

Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3

I cannot help but gush at the lovely pop up that greets you when you first open the eyeshadow palette. If you’ve been to New York, you’ll realise they’ve included all the major landmarks of NYC. This is definitely the perfect memento to take home whether not you’ve been to New York. Central Park, Chrysler Building, Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty and the iconic yellow Taxi are conveniently packed into the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 for you to take home and fall in love with New York City.

If you arent already enchanted by the City that Never Sleeps, let me tempt you with a travel sized bottle of Urban Decay’s best primer potion. Yes, the very same Urban Decay Primer Potion you see in the eyeshadow palette above.

To win, all you need to do is answer the question below in the comment section with your name and working email and you stand a chance to win the travel sized Urban Decay Primer Potion.

Where can you find the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3?

Contest closes Friday, 19th November 12 noon and is limited to Singapore addresses only.

I know I said I shouldnt buy more make up. But with this post, I have the freedom to step into Sephora Singapore when the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 hits the stores. The Urban Decay Book of Shadows are amazing little things. They always come with two eyeliners and a mini bottle of Urban Decay Primer Potion, one of the industry’s best make up primers.

First, it was the Alice in Wonderland Book of Shadows and now, inspired by the bright lights of New York City, Urban Decay releases Book of Shadows Volume 3.

This set, inspired by the Big Apple, features a pop-up collage of iconic New York City icons such as the Statue of Liberty and the yellow taxi cab. It even lights up to bring the bright lights of the City that Never Sleeps to you! How cool! This reminds me so much of the time I went to New York City and was estatic to see Sephora New York, my beauty mecca. But there’s no need to travel to Sephora New York to get your hands on this gorgeous Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume 3 because it’s already released right here in Sephora Singapore! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to head out and get to Sephora Singapore before it sells out.

When the first Sephora Singapore store finally opened in Ngee Ann City Singapore, I’m sure many beauty addicts like me were ecstatic. THE ONE AND ONLY SEPHORA. The one that carries many of the brands we love and lust for: Too Faced, Bare Escentuals, Pop Beauty, Smashbox etc. But what they didnt have were the OTHER brands that we really wanted, brands like Urban Decay and NARS.

The second and much bigger Sephora outlet in ION didn’t manage to bring in these coveted brand either. But now, girls, after months of waiting, it’s time to pop the champagne.

URBAN DECAY IS FINALLY HERE IN SINGAPORE!


A peek at just a few of the items the counter carries.

Mention Urban Decay, and the ever popular Urban Decay Primer Potion comes to mind. Other than the original Primer Potion, two new stunning colours are now available for your picking: Eden, a wearable, tawny, matte shade and Sin, a shimmering champagne colour (all three seen in the picture, extreme left of middle row). Both gorgeous to wear on its own as a cream eyeshadow and of course, for use under your eyeshadows to make them stay longer. I couldn’t decide which of the two to get. I love shimmery shades but at the same time want a matt eyeshadow that’s ever so versatile. Anyone want to buy me them both? :D

The counter also stocks the to-die for 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencils, Heavy Metal Glitter eyeliner and brilliant StarDust eyeshadow which again made my pocket cry out in vain. I poured over the items and couldn’t decide which one to get. Ohhhhh… The joy of shopping for your items and testing out the colours you like. The Oil Slick StarDust eyeshadow had my name written all over it. I couldn’t help but drool over the intense amount of glitter in this pigmented eyeshadow. The Heavy Metal Glitter eyeliner was another one with an obscene amount of glitter in it. Back during my escapade in the Philippines, I was lucky enough to have Miss Northern Ireland lend it to me. I tried it out and ended up looking like I had pretty fairy dust on my lids. Teehee.

If you’re like me and can’t decide what to get, perhaps the 24/7 sets with the 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil and Heavy Metal Glitter eyeliner will be an easy choice for you. The assortment of rainbow colours allow for some dramatic and fun looks. But me being me, I had difficulty picking just ONE set. They were all so pretty. I’m greedy, I WANTED THEM ALL!


Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil in Electric

These creamy Glide-on eyeliners literally glide on your skin and stays soft for up to 30 seconds before drying up to a long-lasting finish. They are waterproof and WILL not BUDGE. It took a quite hard rub with my finger before the liner would smudge.

Because it’s the beginning of the month and the paycheck is already in, I think it might just be a good time to hop on down to Sephora right now. :P
