{BEAUTY NEWS} | #UDEastgate + Urban Decay New In


Hi beauties! In case you haven’t heard (HOW HAVE YOU NOT HEARD?!?!), Urban Decay will be opening their second South African store Eastgate Mall! The store will be opening this Friday, 25 November 2016, and it will be a mystical makeup wonderland inside Foschini. I’ve also heard whispers that there will be some Black Friday treats on opening so I really don’t think you want to miss this one.



Along with the new store, Urban Decay will be dropping a whole bunch of new stuff this week. I have been waiting super patiently for almost all of these babies and I’m sure you have too!
I’ll be taking you through each one today so you can get acquainted and inform your private banker ;)

Vice Lipstick Vintage Capsule Collection


It’s Urban Decay’s 20th anniversary and to celebrate the makeup house is going way, way back and pulling out 9 vintage shades from their original lip squad. Urban decay has always got it so right with the names of their lipstick and with Roach (a deep brown), Oil Slick (sheer black and silver) and Frostbite (a deep blue with multi-faceted glitter pigments) there is no doubt that the brand has always been at the height of edgy. The shades are unique and completely wearable. Each lipstick is also housed in a limited edition throwback tube and will set you back only ZAR250 a pop! I have my eye on Asphyxia and UV-B and I know this collection will sell out swiftly so do not sleep on this one!


Liquid Moondust Eyeshadow


Moondust is Urban Decay’s very own formulation that blends together microfine bits of iridescent sparkle and 3-D metallics to create the sparkliest shadow on Earth. Liquid Moondust is the same innovative formula in an emulsion. The 8 shades are ridiculously pigmented and have great wear. The shadow dries almost instantly, once applied, and is extremely comfortable on the eye. Liquid Moondust is really buildable and you can use it to create a subtle or dramatic eye or even use the precision applicator to line your eyes with a hint of sparkle.

Vice Lipstick Palette in Blackmail


There’s nothing that’s better than a Vice Lipstick… Except 12 Vice lipsticks! This palette contains a dozen unique lipstick shades in all 6 Vice finishes. There’s everything from soft to bright pinks, fierce reds, berries, glitter and metallic and of course the nudes. The palette itself is absolutely beautiful to behold and also contains a lip brush. I’d recommend this one if you travel a lot and just HAVE to take a lipstick in every shade (AKA me) or just because!
These are the shades included in the palette which will set you back ZAR700.
Sheer Shame (Sheer) berry
Firebird (Cream) deep fuchsia
Big Bang (Metallized) bright pink sparkle
Disobedient (Cream) medium pink
EZ (Cream) bright red-orange
714 (Mega Matte) bright red
Vanished (Sheer) pale neutral nude
1993 (Comfort Matte) medium brown
Ex-Girlfriend (Sheer Shimmer) nude-rose w/pink shimmer
Amulet (Metallized) metallic brick rose
Conspiracy (Metallized) plum-bronze shimmer
Blackmail (Comfort Matte) deep berry wine

The Vice Lipstick Palette will be available at the Sandton store.

Full Spectrum Eyeshadow Palette


Full Spectrum is the new sibling in Urban Decay’s iconic palette family. Housed in chic and elegant packaging, Full Spectrum contains 21 shades ranging from deep, bright mattes to lustrous shimmers. If you love experimenting then this kaleidoscopic limited edition baby is just for you. 18 of the 21 shades are brand new and it also contains 2 shades (Hatter and Metamorphosis) from the very, very limited edition Urban Decay Alice in Wonderland palette. If you, like the rest of us, missed out on the Urban Spectrum palette, you WILL want this. It goes for ZAR999 and is available in very limited quantities.

Naked Illuminated Trio


Saving my favourite one for last is the Naked Illuminated Trio. This palette contains three new shades of Urban Decay’s iconic Naked illuminated shimmering face and body powder. I don’t want to say too much, because I’m going to be treating you to a full review later in the week, but I will say that this trio is just as dreamy as it sounds. The three shades (Pyrite, Oasis and Twilight) are everything you’d hope for in a highlighter; a champagne-gold, a sublime marbled taupe shade and a beautiful shimmering soft pink. It also comes with a double ended brush and will sell at ZAR650.
