Urban Decay Mariposa Palette: Review and Swatches

New to Sephora stores, and sephora.com, is an all new and exclusive palette for the holidays! This is the Mariposa palette by Urban Decay.

There are 10 shadows,and it includes a travel size eyeshadow brush.

The top picture is the packaging. The palette arrives in a nice, sturdy tin box.It is a gunmetal-ish color and there is a butterfly on the front as well. I think that the packaging is nice, its very portable- but my only issue is that I wish it had a mirror inside!

The second picture is a good view of the inside, with all the shadows and brush.

The color swatches are shown the the same order as the palette,top 5 left to right, and bottom 5 left to right.

Review time! In all honesty, I wasnt particularly thrilled 100% about this one. To me, I feel like the 4 exclusive shades aren't all that great... They really have a lot of fallout, and are not as pigmented as I would like them to be :(

It's not my favorite, but its not all that bad either ,there are a couple of my favorite colors, Rockstar and Gunmetal. I think that thisis a good palette maybe for one that is new to the brand,or to makeup in general. It would make a really good gift to give as well!

You can find this at any Sephora store,or at www.sephora.com.

The price is $39.00

I hope this review and these swatches helped!

Stay pretty- inside AND out!!
