I hope they are^

My UD palette arrived today! The post came at 1 ocklock today :S
Anyhow I love this palette! It's alot smaller than I expected but its super cute, I've only swatched a few shadows and they seem great

still shocked that it's still in stock on the Debenhams and HoF site! I love that UD never fail to impress!
yay!! i am pleased you have your palette. i was expecting it to be bigger too because of how big the book of shadows are in comparrison! and yes it is great that the uk seems to have actual stock of this! i think in the states it keeps selling out! i haven't seen it in stores yet in the uk... but maybe i have been walking around with my eyes shut!

Apparently the palette came out in Debenhams stores the day before/after the online launch so maybe it sold out...I know items always seem to go fast in the Birmingham counter, maybe thats because its the only one...

Anyhow I love the packaging! I don't think I've ever purchased a palette thats as pretty as this!

Agreed! Just been playing around with the palette, the lid could be abit more secure. I'm very clumsy so its only a matter of time until I drop it and the lid comes off! I can't wait to use the palette as a jewellery box! I'm using the purple packaging that the palette came in for my huge ring collection! I have like 30 rings! Before makeup I was into jewellery :)

i messed up one of the shadows today! i was putting the lid on and didn't get it on right and the corner of the lid went into the top right side shadow. luckily the corner of the shadow is the only biit that got a little nic.... i'm still annoyed with myself though!

MAC Sized To Go – my experience with a mini Cleanse Off Oil - here is todays specktra blog post. when i first bought this product i used it in completely the wrong way! lol! anybody else think you should just squirt it on a cotton pad?!

Atleast it was only a little nic! I hate it when I ruin a shadow, guess I have to be extra careful with this shadow!

yeah it looks ok this morning... i ran a brush over it to smooth it out! lol!

i have been doing so many combos with the shades recently! today i am using the onnly glittery shadow from the lot... the one at the top left of the palette. i used it with a fluffy brush in my crease and the glitter chunks went everywhere! i think they should have skipped that shadow and included a nice flesh colour that you could use as a highlight :)

I got my UD 15 year anniversary palette today, my hubby collected it from the post office. :) It's very pretty, but I know what you mean about the fingerprints! I don't think it's small, just right. Haven't swatched it yet, want to take pictures for my blog, will do that when hubby takes children swimming tomorrow morning.

Have you seen the Book of Shadows IV on Temptalia? http://www.temptalia.com/urban-decay-book-of-shadows-volume-iv-volume-4 It's very funky, but I think the colours are a bit blah. I'll still get it just to complete my collection of BOS, but I'm not that excited about it right now.

Yay! I'm happy you are home safe and that you finally have your shadow palette! Enjoy swatching tomorrow! And i saw the book of shadows and i really like it, although some of these 'new' colours are existing colours with new names i am sure!

I saw that on temptalia, I do get what you mean some of the colours are just boring to me but I'm excited for the other and the liquid liner in Perversion looks promising plus my Primer Potion is running low so hopefully all that will make worth it!

That's not nice. :( It's not raining here, but the ground is very wet, so I'm guessing it rained over night. Hubby's just left with kids, gonna do some swatching soon! :)

sometimes swatching gets annoying for me.... i enjoy taking the pretty pictures but actually swatching all the product can be a pain! esp when there are so many colours to do! lol!

Yes, I know what you mean. It can take a long time to swatch a palette. And then crop pictures and watermark them... But anyway, I have swatched the palette and did a neutral look with it, so far like it a lot, except for the Midnight twins. :( Not sure which as I'm wearing both, but one of the Midnight shades has awful glitter fall out, I think it's Midnight 15, it's just Midnight Cowboy renamed really. Will do a colourful look with it tomorrow and post my review on my blog. :)

Yeah, my face is covered in glitter! There's no glitter on my eyelids, just everywhere else. :( The rest of the palette is lovely though. I especially love the middle 5 with all the pretty colours. :)

Yes, the NARS trio looks beautiful. I absolutely love the palettes and sets that come out at Xmas time, I can't wait to see what the other brands will be launching.

I personally can't wait to see details of the Guerlain holiday collection since it always includes new Meteorites and Voyage Powder which I just love.
