What I Used:
Face:
-Smashbox Photofinish Primer
-MUFE HD #118
-MAC Studio Fix Powder NW25
-MAC Fix +
-Benefit Hoola
-NARS Angelika
Eyes:
-UDPP
-Too Faced Shadow Insurance Glitter Glue (It makes shimmery/sparkly shadows STICK)
-UD Chase
-UD Deeper
-UD MIA
-UD Blackout + NYX black
-Revlon 3D Waterproof Mascara
Lips: (I really mixed a bunch up)

Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Swatches
I don't normally buy the Urban Decay palettes that come out. I wasn't impressed with the Naked Palette. Sure the colours were nice, but it just didn't wow me like it did with so many others. I actually bought it once the hype had died down, and I ended up returning it.
Anyhoo, I was at Ulta last week and, of course I had heard about the 15th Anniversary palette, but didn't think twice about it. I was just browsing around and decided to swatch it, and maaaannnn...those shadows went on like BUTTAH. They were all so glorious!! So smoooth and silky and frosty and BEAUTIFUL. I bought the sucker. I also bought 3 of the new 24/7 liquid eyeliners and 2 of the 24/7 Shadow Pencils.
Here are the swatches of the eyeshadow palette:
Here are the eyeliners and the shadow pencils:
Eyeliners from L-R:
-Siren
-Radium
-Retrograde
Shadow Pencils top and bottom:
-Wasteland
-Barracuda
You can't really tell from the picture, but the Siren eyeliner is a duochrome. It flashes violet...it's pretty amazing. Very peacocky type of colour.
I haven't really played around with these much, but I will be soon, so expect some looks using these products!
That's all for now!
