Yaaay! Finally my first Urban Decay Palette! Toasted, Smog, and Mildew are now my go-to colors! The colors are so beautiful and I cannot thank my friend enough for giving me this palette. I'm glad to have finally found the name for it. Excellent staying power and beautiful pigments.

This is my first UD palette!
I really like the mix of colors that this has to offer -two perfect browns (toasted and smog) a bright blue and bright purple, an earthy green, and a subtle peach.
The quality of UD shadows are something else! Super smooth and pigmented.
The packaging with the creepy girls on the front I don't particularly like but it deosn't bother me either, I can ignore them.. I just care what's inside.
Now I definitly get why UD palettes are so talked about!

I purchased this from UD for $15 dollars. It came with a mini Primer Potion and mini liner (in Zero). The shadows are extremly pigmented and blend very well. I would definitely purchase again.

I picked this up for around $13 (it was on sale and I had a BI 15% off pass), but I would say it's worth the full price of around $30! I don't like the art on the box, but the shadows are smooth, blendable, gorgeous, and you get a nice assortment of colors.

I really like this palette a lot, but I don't like the UD regurgitates all their colours into their 'new' palettes. I think this one had one or two new colours, but the rest are either permanent or dupe-able. I also really dislike how chunky/glittery/shimmery UD shadows tend to be. I do like the colour range in this palette & honestly love each shadow in it. I'm not a fan of the huge & gimmicky packaging, though. I think eventually I will depot these & toss the case as it's just a little obnoxious to me. Still, the colours are nice & having a 24/7 Zero liner is always a plus :)

Only $19 CAD, what a steal!
This was my first Urban Decay purchase (excluding Big Fatty Mascara a few years back >.>) and I am in love!
The shadows are very pigmented, creamy and have great lasting power. I was a bit intimidated by the shades Flash and Painkiller at first, but after testing them out I find I can actually pull them off.
Like everyone else I'm disappointed by the glitter in Snatch, but I love the colour so much I wear it regardless. I'm very careful when I apply it and I notice minimal glitter fallout.
The mini 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil is amazing, true to it's name it glides on effortlessly and stays put!
The mini Primer Potion is the only thing I have trouble with.
I have dry skin, and it makes my eyelids extremely dry and flaky. I've never experienced this before! I felt like the Cryptkeeper.
Though it did do it's job at at keeping my shadow vibrant and in place. I won't be repurchasing the full size though and will probably give future mini ones to friends.

For the price (it was on sale of a sale for only 16!), this is of GREAT value. Even though I don't use this often, as I'm more of a neutral-eyed girl, I have no regrets on purchasing this. I use Snatch the most out of this palette and I don't find it to be all *that* bad as far as the glitter goes. You just "press" it on your lids. Some fallout may occur, but just sweep it off your cheeks and your good to go. I haven't experienced any fallout as the day went on, only initial application.


PRO'S:
+ Great value - 6 eyeshadow's and a mini 24/7 liner & a mini primer potion for only 16 dollars. A single eyeshadow from them is worth 16 dollars already!
+ Quality is up to par with the rest of the Urban Decay shadows. Pigmented, vibrant, and buttery-smooth- very easy to blend.
+A whole variety of shades. There's a good mix of neutrals and color. There aren't any 2 that are too similar/a-like, so you get to experiment with different shades.


CON'S:
- I wouldn't even consider this a real con, but I guess the glitter in Snatch. I mean, UD is known for it's bright colors and glitter, so I don't think it's fair to knock-off points for this.


Overall, I'd highly recommend this palette. It'd be a great intro to the UD brand.

The only reason I wouldn't buy this again is that it introduced me to colors I love and a couple I could do without. I love 4 out of the 6 eye shadows, and for $16, that can't be beat. UD eye shadow is lovely and versatile. You can brush it on lightly for subtle looks or wet it and it serves as a vibrant liner. The very best part of this pallet was the 24/7 liner... I'm in LOVE! That stuff stays put! I will definitely be buying a few of these bad boys in their full size options. Glad I got this and is worth way more than I paid for it!

Overall, Show Pony is great palette. It contains one of my favourite eyeshadows, Toasted (and that's saying a lot, because my eyeshadow stash is enormous). Smog is also nice, it's just a bit too orange on me. Flash is a pretty purple, though I expected it to be more pigmented. Painkiller is a tough colour to wear, so I usually don't. Mildew is also top quality, and a versatile crease shade. I haven't touched Snatch because it's a glitterbomb - and I mean huge HUGE chunks of loose glitter. I wish they had included Scratch instead. Finally, I hate the packaging, but I keep it around because I adore Toasted, and many of the other shades are quite wearable as well.

I am waiting to get mine. I read a review/swatch on youtube and colors look really nice and pigmented! For $16 I think it's worth the colors!

Grrrrreat deal for $16 on sephora! Love these e/s colors, HATE the front cover art- yikes those ladies are scary-lol, but I bought it for the e/s not the cover...
Ive got a few of these colors in other palettes but I wanted mildew and for a dollar less than one single eyeshadow I can get a whole palette, liner and mini pp so it was a total no brainer!
Snatch looks too glittery but I can brush the glitter off with a fluff brush after applying so problem solved:) Other colors are lovely not too shimmery at all. Get a nice natural look with toasted in crease and mildew on lid, or if I feel especially vibrant I can throw on the bright purple or blue on my lids instead. Lots of color combinations and options, this is great for travel- love the smaller size, much easier to pack than a ginormous BOS or Naked palette.
Doubt Ill ever use this up- rarely use up any e/s- but Ill surely try, and would repurchase if I did.

This was my first purchase from sephora and I am so happy that it was! The pigmentation of all the shadows is amazing- but I have to give a special shout-out to "Toasted". This palette also came with zero, so I could try that out :)

Pigmentation is great. Price is awesome ($16 at Sephora.com). Great opportunity to try shadows, liner, and primer all at once! Colors blend well.

This is my first Urban Decay purchase and I actually bought it off a blog sale. So the price I paid for it was great....but I wouldn't have paid $20 for it. I'm new to UD shadows. And even with UDPP (which I don't like) it still creases on me. I have very oily lids. And I don't feel that these colors are as pigmented as some of my other shadows. I wore Mildew & Toasted yesterday and had to pack on the color just to show up. And only about 3 hours later they were all creased and dull looking.
I love the packaging though. It's super easy to carry around because of the size. And I love that the liner is with it as well.

This is a really great palette! I am new to urban decay all i have of theres is a primer potion. Everyone raves about their palettes so i really wanted to try one, i was dying for the naked palette but i couldnt find it anywhere and it is quite expensive for me at almost $50. This palette is $20 and has 2 of the same eyeshadow shades as the naked palette, smog and toasted. I really enjoy this palette because i have always stayed within my neutral colored shadow shades, this allows me to have a little bit more fun with my looks. I love mildew all over the lid with smog in the crease. I adore using smog and toasted as crease colors and the colors painkiller and flash as liners. Unfortunatly the only color which didnt meet the mark for me was snatch, its really really glittery which i dont like, i love shimmer and sparkle but that color is TOO much.

Its a little late, but I got this palette not this Christmas, but the Christmas before it from a co-worker. I love this palette. Painkiller doesn't get used often just because I don't have the need for that blue color. But, I wear smog everyday just about. It really compliments my blue eyes. And its dark without being harsh for work. I definitely love this color. Snatch is also very pretty, obviously, it does have some fall out, but honestly its not too much of a problem. I do my eyes first when applying make-up, then do my face. So, I have very little fall out. Toasted is beautiful and so is mildew. Flash is bright and vibrant without looking like too much. All of the eyeshadows are creamy and smooth and you don't need to apply a lot because of the pigmentation. Plus, another zero! I'll never have too much zero eyeliner. I'm sooo happy I got this palette and will definitely repurchase when I run out.

I like the shadows Toasted, Smog, Painkiller, and Mildew, but Flash is not very good. It is chalky and not too pigmented. Snatch has too much glitter, which is not good to me, as i cannot use it on the browbone as a highlightersince it is too glittery, and the fall out is terrible (Snatch would be good as a highlight if not for the glitter!).

Great packeging, though i find it hard to get the liner out of the palette without damaging the shadows around it.

I love the mini Primer Potion, which was why I'd bought the palette in the first place. Works well on me, much better than Too Faced Shadow Insurance on my skin.

Overall, this palette was a nice addition to my makeup collection, though I don't think I will be buying another one after this one goes.

It cost me $20 without tax and shipping at Sephora.com

This was my first ever Urban Decay product I bought, and I bought it at Sephora for $32. I LOVE this palette and hit pan on the Snatch color. It makes me sooo sad that they don't make this color individually! Its probably my most favorite eyeshadow in the ENTIRE WORLD! haha I love it, its soo pretty just on its own. Its a peachy pink with gold glitter. Urban Decay should really make an individual one. I also like the color Toasted. The 24/7 eyeliner that came with it I used up in a few months, I also loved that! Great palette:)

Urban Decay shadows are soft and appy smoothly however they are so glittery/shimmery and not one shadow in this palette was matte to balance off the intense shimmer these shadow put out. The colors were an odd match as well. I wish sleek were easier to come by in the states because they are like cousins.
