Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette Review & Swatches

The Urban Decay Vice Palette 2 finally arrived in Sephora stores and I was so excited to pick it up! Before I even go through the colors, can we just take a moment to admire how gorgeous the palette packaging is? This orchid design is unique and every palette will be slightly different. The palette contains 20 brand new shades available only in the Vice 2. The limited edition palette contains a mix of neutrals, brights and darker, smokier shades.

Dope - warm pink champagne satin

Toxic - metallic copper pink with micro-glitter

Habit - pale matte nude

Ambush - metallic brown satin

Rewind - medium brown matte

 The palette also comes with a double-ended brush with one end for crease and another for shadow. As with most brushes included in palettes I wasn't overly impressed with the brush. I tend to like my brushes super soft and this one just wasn't that soft or flexible.

Given that I'm usually a neutrals girl when it comes to my eyes, I'm going to have to push myself to use this palette but the colors are so gorgeous and apply so nicely that it shouldn't be hard.

The Urban Decay Vice Palette 2 can be purchased for $68 CDN at Sephora. Each eyeshadow in the palette is 0.03 oz., whereas Urban Decay separate eyeshadows contain 0.05 oz. and retail for $22, so the palette itself is actually quite a good deal.
