Ever since I first laid my eyes on the Urban Decay x Kristen Leanne Kaleidoscope Dream Eyeshadow Palette, I knew I would be unable to not buy it. The colour scheme is absolutely fantastic, and I am so happy they threw in a matte black shade together with all the bright ones - I've missed that in other colourful palettes. To see it beautifully swatches, go to Viola's blogpost, she simply does it better.
I had a really hard time figuring out which shades I wanted to use for my first look with it, since they're all so freaking lovely. I set my mind on doing a color combo that I hadn't seen done from it yet, and ended up using DYE (a deep, shimmering purple) in my inner and outer corners and up towards my brow, LCW (shimmering lighter blue) as a connecting shade to LIME TIME (shimmering lime green), which LEO (iridescent blueish) topped off really nicely and also gave my inner corner a magic glow, and lastly I softened my eyeliner with 13th FLOOR (matte black). The shadows aren't as soft as many other I use, so they required some getting used to for me, but they are buildable, easy to blend and once given some love they stay fabolous for a long time. I am SO happy about this palette and I can't wait to make all kinds of combos out of it!!
Also; new hair!
