Urban Decay Eyeshadow Sin and Mushroom Review

  Hi everyone :)
       Today I wanted to do a quick swatch and review of the two eyeshadows that I bought from Sephora the other day. I have used Sin for the last 2 years as my to go to shadow on days where I would like to just use one shadow on my lids. I have always received good compliments on my shadow as to what shade and brand I am using! I have been looking for another to go to color and so far I have not had any luck with that. I always go back to Sin.
        This is also the first time I bought UD eyeshadows with their new packaging. I love everything about the packaging, from the box to the product. Definitely not cheap looking and it has the edgy look, which fits UD perfectly.
        I like the idea that we can buy these shadows and create our own little palette. I feel like it is also a way to get customers to get more shadows though because it is $18 per shadow and another $10 for the palette box. If it was cheaper or there was some sort of discount I would actually buy it, but 4 shadows (The palette holds 4 shadows) would already be $72 + $10 for the box = $82. Not worth it, in my opinion!

Above I swatched the two eyeshadows and as you can tell, Urban Decay, as always have awesome pigment in their eye products. Their products never smudge after the entire day (I always use a primer underneath). The shimmer is light and both these shadows can be used together to create a nice smoke effect. I like that the shimmer is not too loose because it is pretty annoying when it gets all over my face. Mushroom is a dark grey color with a nice purple tint to it in the light. It did not show up in the pictures, but if you go to the store and look at it in the light, you can see a small shade of purple in it. If I am wrong then I think I am color blind >.< lol

Overall, I think buying Urban Decay palettes are more worth it but I really like these two colors. Sin is my all time to go to shade for just a day to run errands or if you are not going anywhere fancy. Its good for light makeup. I like that the shade Mushroom is a shimmery dark grey color that will blend in perfectly with Sin for a night out! These two colors together can give a very romantic look!
