The glam look is scary, the nymph one is nice. Um, this FC is probably my least favourite because the colors sort of clash together and eyeshadows like Speed (baby blue) don't score very high on the wearable list for me. Same goes for Stalker - scary purple. I do like the Bruise lipgunk though, it goes on sheer and lasts for quite a while

Was really excited and then let down by this Face Case. The lip colors are uninspired and I found the textures of the shadows more gritty than their full-size counterparts. Don't get me started on the Uzi. Wouldn't buy again if I somehow managed to use up everything in here.

The colors in this simply did not go together at all. The "Glam" look pictured looked horrible on the box and even worse on me when I applied it as per instructions. It was way more "I don't know how to apply my makeup" than anything remotely resembling glamourous. (Actually, I think none of the suggested looks on the Face Case packages look even remotely good and have to experiment to come up with ways to make them work. This palette was the least workable of all). It was the first Face Case I bought, and it's a wonder it didn't turn me off to the palettes entirely. (Although it's a good thing it didn't, since *all* of the other FCs *rock*). The purple gunk in the "Glam" look is just about the scariest thing I've ever seen, and I can't think of person, time, or place for which it's appropriate. Not a club, not a party, not a bar. Not anywhere. I can't imagine who it can possibly flatter. This is no longer available at sephora.com or urbandecay.com, but if you see it on ebay or a swap, I suggest you hold off until one of the other Face Cases is available.

These colors are wonderful! I didn't think they would be wearable at all. I have Neutral ppp skin (white as paper in winter, but tans to olive) and hazel/dark green eyes. I really wanted some wearable silvers, and this is perfect.

Stalker brings out my eyes really nicely. Speed is much paler than it looks... very wearable. Most light blues pick up orange/yellow in my iris, and make my eyes look really wierd. Acid Rain is one of the most flattering light greens I've ever tried. Polyester Bride is just a classic pale shimmer (it looks silver on me). I'm not just too crazy about the "looks" in the box, and have no idea who the singer girl is that models them. I don't think they do the product justice.



The uzi body haze is cool, it works great on the collar bone, and makes a neat face product too. The lip stuff is cool, but you MUST layer them in some way to make the colors work with the e/s. Too bad there's no blush though. Something light pink and sparkly might have been nice.

Over all I'm impressed with the product's wearability and convenience. It's so much fun to play with that I want MORE face cases!

I loved this stuff, some people complain about the colours, but sheesh you aren't supposed to wear all of the colours at once! I got this in a swap and absolutely LOVE IT.

This is my favorite palette ever!! It has great colors for cool tones, like the hot pink stalker e/s which I absolutely adore! And the lipgunks go on very nicely, all in a little palette that I can take anywhere... WHOO

I only purchased this because the colors in this were useable,but that dosen't neccesarily mean i would purchase these individually.They are not my absolute favorites,but all of them,especially the eyeshadows are workable.I wouldn't wear the lipcolors with the eyeshadows since it looks a little too extreme,but overall this is a great way to be able to use a bunch of different UD products without having to spend hundreds of dollars buying each item individually.

The colors in this palette are very pretty and sparkly, but with their emphasis on cool tones and pastels, perhaps not as versatile as some of the other face cases. The only deep e/s shade is a purple which can give you a red-eye look if used close to the eye, so you will probably need to invest in a separate liner. I found the lighter shades to have more sparkle than pigment, so they're more wearable than they at first appear. I don't feel the X and Bruise lip shades go too well with the e/s, as they're quite warm and mauvey. And the clear glitter lip shade and silver glitter body haze are a bit too similar for the palette to need both of them. A nice palette - if you suit cool tones and love glitter. Otherwise you might prefer one of the other face cases instead.

I just bought this product about an hour ago and started trying it on right away. I love how you have all the different eyeshadows, lipgunks, lipsticks, and the body haze all in one package. I couldn't decide if I wanted to get this facecase or the Rock Superstar. But I decided to get this one because I wanted a variety of color besides the ones I have now. Overall, this product is great (like all other UD items) and I'm looking forward to expanding my UD collection.

-Face Case-



Brand: Urban Decay

Color: Nymph to Glam

Price: $34





The first thing that struck me about this product aside from the sleek silver packaging was that is smelled really nice. This face case comes with 4 eye shadows [sparkly sky blue-speed, glittery ivory-polyester bride, glittery grape-stakler, and an iredescent light green-acid rain], 2 lipsticks [shimmery muave-x, bright pink with purple undertones-asphyxsia], 2 lip gunks [clear with multicolor microglitter-litter, shimmery violet-bruise], and 1 body haze [silver glitter-uzi].




I like the compact design of the palette which came with two cute double ended applicaters. The eyeshadows went on smooth with no creasing and the lip gunks were very glossy. The only problem I had with this color palette was that it only had really glittery colors, a mix of non-glitter colors would have helped coordinate a wearable look. I just ended up using the eyeshadows with different matte lipsticks I owned and the lip colors with matte shadows I already had. Although I'm pleased with the cute packaging and nice smelling makeup I don't know if it was worth the $34, but that's only because I didn't like all of the colors, maybe I would be more pleased with a different face case.

I LOVE this! It's so super cute and pastely and sparkly. =) I'm loving the shadows (first time UD shadow user) and the lipsticks and lipgunks are fabulous colors. A little bit on the expensive side, but, you have to love it. Worth the money.

I didn't care for this product. While I love Urban Decay and own many of their shadows and lipgunks I felt this product was inferior. I didn't find the shadows to have the same quality that the ones in pots do - they were sheer and barely showed up on me! Plus the shadow color combo in this palette was weird and I couldn't wear them together. I also didn't find the texture of the lip products to be good - I bought a bruise lipgunk after trying the one in the palette and found that the colors weren't even similar.

Another great palette from Urban Decay. I like this one...much easier to find daytime combinations...and I LOVE the SWF lipstick. All in all, a great palette just like everyone else says!

I was first kinda shocked at how small it was but as I started to use it, I realized how great it truly is! It's so portable and very versatile. Nymph to Glam is the only palette that I have a bit of trouble with. It has 4 e/s that are a bit unusual for my colouring. A baby blue/violet, mint green, creamy champagne, and a wine. All in all, the quality is great but the colours didnt exactly go with my oriental skin! I loved the lip gunk... i use them the most. The silver body haze is a funny thing... quite teen-ish but I'm sure I can find a use for it! Probably the least fave of the 4 face cases ... but still an excellent item!
