Urban Decay The Feminine Palette - Review and Swatches.

So a couple of months ago Urban Decay came out with updated versions of palettes they brought out a couple of years ago. You can say that they gave the palettes a face lift. They changed the packaging, add some different shadows, and instead of eyeliner they put in lip glosses. 
There are six eye shadow colors in the palette and from the first palette none of them are the same the first Feminine palette had Stray Dog, Swf, Midnight Cowboy,  Aquarius, Darkhourse, and Ecstacy. Also the palette came with one of there eyeliner pencils in Zero and a mini Primer Potion in Eden. 
  The First eyeshadow in the new Feminine Palette is Bordello a pinky- plum with micro gold glitter. This shadow has a nice pay when applied with a finger, but when applied with a brush it gives off more of a sheen or a wash of color that is similar to whats in the pan but not true to it. If that is something that does not bother you then it is really a great color. 
Next in the palette is Skimp a pale light beige with a satiny finish. I feel that it applies the same with a finger or a brush. This color is great for a high lighting either on the brow bone or in the inner corner. Also it would work nice for a base color. 
AC/DC is a medium dark purple with a noticeable red undertone. It applies smoothly with both a brush and with a finger. Out of the whole palette this would have to be my favorite one for how well the color pay off is and for how it applies.
Following that we have Gunmetal a dark grey sliver that has some glitter and a frost finish. Thought this shadow is nicely pigmented there is some fall out from the glitter. 
Hijack is a smokey charcoal teal with a little bit of a green tone to it and a frost finish. This shadow applies very smoothly. 
Last but not least we have Lost a warm copper bronze that has a metallic frost finish. This applies so beautifully and has a really smooth and soft feel to it. 
Finally we have a mini Lip Junkie in the color Wallflower a neutral pink with a milky / cream finish. This comes of almost opaque. 


One Last thing you should know about the palette its removable from the case that its in so when your finished with all the shadows then you can reuse it for something else.  
 

Urban Decay Feminine Palette is available at Urban Decay online, Ulta, and Sephora
The palette retails for $36.
