Urban Decay is a brand I just absolutely love, especially for their lipsticks. So my excitement levels went through the roof when this limited edition Blackmail Vice Lipstick palette arrived through my door, it is just stunning.
What I love about the entire Vice collection is that there is something for everyone right across the colour spectrum. Whether you like your muted nudes and neutrals, your brights and crazy bold or even something in the middle, there will be something for you.
This palette contains 12-pans of lipstick and all of the shades are from the brand’s permanent range of colours. It is ideal for travelling too as it comes with a retractable lip brush, which, as you might expect is really good, infact much better than the two I own from other brands. The palette, which is a beautiful metallised gunmetal case with gold accents. It is super-sleek, has a decent sized mirror and as you can see, is just absolutely stunning.

So on this palette, you will find the following shades across the top from left to right is:

Then running along the bottom from leaf to right we move to the more natural/nude shades with:

What I love is that with these lip colours you get all six of Urban Decays finishes on this one palette and this is them with a brief description:
- Mega Matte - super-intense matte
- Comfort Matte - the creamiest matte
- Cream the original - creamy, badass luxury
- Metallized - cream with a high level of pearl
- Sheer - a punch of colour with a sheer, shiny finish
- Sheer Shimmer - a slightly transparent finish with floating pearl and a smooth texture
So with those textures, as you can see there is not only a lot of beautiful shades, but they are also incredibly pigmented and in just one swipe, you have an amazing swatch. This is the Vice Lipstick formula that you know and love and it uses Urban Decays proprietary Pigment Infusion System™ which gives each shade its super-creamy texture, rich payout and superior colour dispersion. Yummy Butter Blend comforts, hydrates and enhances, leaving lips soft and conditioned, never dry.
This palette is priced at £31.50 and is available from Urban Decay. I love that there is so many colour choices on this palette and I love how pigmented each and everyone of them is.
