Urban Decay 15 Year Anniversary: Coral for Fall



Hello beautiful!

Today's look is going to use eyeshadows from Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette. I am a fan of Urban Decay eyeshadow palettes, they always come out with great and vibrant eyeshadows. 

But now, I am going to show you how to achieve an everyday natural look using the palette. I will use more vibrant colors next time! :) 

The palette is a limited edition, but still available in the stores. You can get it in Sephora, Ulta, or online. Get your hands on while it is still available! The downside of this palette is a pricey, $55. But, it includes 15 NEW and high quality eyeshadows. 

Lets jump on the tutorial!

Golden Ruby



Hey pretty ladies! 

I have been wanting to do this tutorial, but I had no idea why I have not made it up yet. Well, I guess this is the right time! Today's tutorial is a pretty red look. I know red eyeshadows are sometimes can be offbeat, but then MAC came out with new mineralized eyeshadows from the Semi Precious collections, and one of the eyeshadow was Smoked Ruby. It is basically a red mixed with a black with a satin finish, so pretty! 

This eyeshadow was a limited edition, and not available online anymore. However, if you happen to have a MAC store or its counter, ask the artists there, they sometimes still have some backups! Just FYI, now online only has three mineralized eyeshadows left from the collection: Blue Sheen, Unsurpassable, and Jade's Fortune. The price is $20. 

Without a further do, lets get on to the tutorial!

This part is optional - the shadestick is not available anymore, use an eye primer instead like Too Faced Eyeshadow Insurance, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Benefit Stay Don't Stray, Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer, etc.
