Quick Ulta Haul

Halloween is my birthday, and what better time to have a birthday then October 31 when many make up lines are releasing their limited edition palettes or kits.  I had the opportunity to find a few of these and purchase them so that I can tell you about them. Also there are a few permanent collection items that I finally purchased. I am just going to give you my initial opinion and facts on the products I have purchased. If there is a product or item you would like us to review please leave a comment below.
1.) Urban Decay Naked Palette
nakedNow I now that many people have had this for months, but having an Ulta for the first time in my hometown finally gave me the opportunity to purchase it and hopefully be able to do some tutorials with it. This palette has 12 eye shadows, 2 (Naked & Buck) are Matte shades. Gunmetal and Sidecar seem to have the larger glitter. Virgin is a satin finish shade, I will definitely be comparing this palette to my Naked 2 and 3. It also comes with a foil pack sample of all four of the Eyeshadow Primer Potion.  I am very excited to try those and see if I like any of them better than the original. Let me know if you would like to see a tutorial or full review of this product or any of the products in a comment below.
2.) Urban Decay Electric Palette

This is an absolutely gorgeous palette and I can not wait to dig in to it. This palette features 10 neon pressed pigments. You also get a double ended Pressed Pigment Brush.  There is a disclaimer stating that Slowburn, Savage, Jilted, and Urban are not supposed to be used near the immediate eye area. However that being said... I have seen tutorials where they have been used, so I am going to do more research into that. I am going to do a full review on this product and include swatches and tell you exactly how I feel that this product performs.
3.) Stila Magnificient Foil Finish Eye Shadow

This is the prettiest finish for an Eyeshadow it leaves your eyes shimmery. It comes with the miniature Stay All Day liquid Eye Primer. I noticed when I opened mine that this can be a little messy. It was $34.00, to me that's not bad considering you get everything you need to make the Eyeshadow stay on all day. Again I have not tried this product out yet, but  I am planning on doing a full review and possibly even a tutorial.
There will be another Ulta haul going up either tonight or tomorrow morning. Thank you again for taking time out of your busy day to read our posts.
