Urban Decay holiday 2015 first Impressions

I was so confused today because I thought this was urban Decay’s fall collection, and not the holiday collection, which is what it is.

I know that sounds really dumb…but in my defense, it’s 80 degrees outside! I’m wearing shorts and a tank top. I guess my mind just couldn’t make the leap to snowmen, Christmas trees and wearing mittens.

Heck, I don’t even have shoes on!

Be that as it may, it is holiday time in urban Decay Land (ho-ho-ho!), so let’s don our mittens, our earmuffs and our J. Lo “Jenny from the Block” coat, and take a look.

There are a couple of palettes in the release, some new liners (which I’m not crazy about, but I’ll get into that in the video) and a highlighter.

I have no idea how any of it fits with the holidays because, you know, there’s a lot of black in it and references to oil slicks, and nothing that seems particularly holiday-esque, but we’re just gonna opt for it.

There’s a lot a lot more info in the video, but as a quick overview, one of the two palettes is called Vice4 because, apparently, the world needs a lot more vices (with my greatest one ideal now being three twins ice cream).

It has a lot of things UD is known for, like great style and lots of color, but I’m a lot more ecstatic about the second palette, urban Spectrum.

Let’s see… how must I describe it?

OK, you know how when you shine one of those prism things against a wall, you see a spectrum of colors? Well, that’s it. The palette houses a beautiful transition of gradients from greens to blues to purples, so when you open it up, you’re greeted by a rainbow.

The liners, I think I mentioned, and we’ll get into them in the video, along with the highlighter.

And all of it will be available at urbandecay.com starting September 12, and a little later at select Macy’s, Sephora and Ulta stores.
