Amazing Products We Love: Urban Decay Ammo Palette

I’m a huge fan of Urban Decay, I mean duh! … who isn’t?! Long story short, it was money WELL SPENT! The Ammo pallete consists of 10 different Supér pigmented shimmery shadows and a travel-size Primer Portion (amazeballs yes!)   1) SMOG: deep coppery bronze 2) MILDEW: green with hint of gold 3) OIL SLICK: black underlaid with silver 4) LAST CALL: metallic cranberry 5) CHOPPER: coppery gold     6) MAUI MOWIE: Golden beige 7) SHATTERED: iridescent Aqua green (turquoise) 8) POLYESTER BRIDGE: white with silver hints 9) GRIFTER: iridescent lavender (purplish pink…depends on how the light hits it) 10) SIN: champagney brown For proper comparison, these are the swatches with and without (natural light) flashlight:     My favourite is most definitely SHATTERED! I can’t get enough of it; it turns out soooo pretty. I use it basically all over the eyelid or lower lash-line for a pop of color; While POLYESTER/ SIN/ MAUI MOWIE are wonderful for the tear-duct (to open up your eyes).   Pros: 1. Highly pigmented. 2. Long-lasting. 3. The travel size Primer Portion and shadow brush was a nice touch.   Cons: 1. No matte shadows. 2. No purple. 3. With SMOG & MAUI MOWIE, I could do without CHOPPER. 4. Glitter fall out.   Verdict: A purple would have truly completed the palette. You have to be careful while applying so you don’t get glitter all over your face. Best applied with a wet brush and in patting/dabbing movements. I give it a YESSSSS! It’s worth every penny! So darlings, get your Ammo up!       Photo credit: Zuka Williams     About the Writer: Zuka Williams is an Economist, a make-up artist and a beauty blogger.
