   Pros:
   1. Very pigmented consistent with the UD quality.
   2. The colours are very bold. Great for editorial makeup or glam looks.
   3. Shadows are very smooth and buttery.
   4. The packaging is very sturdy.

   Cons:
   1. Because this contains a lot of shimmer shades, I use this in tandem with a neutral matte palette for my transition shades (Sonia Kashuk Eye on Neutral).
   2. The shimmer shades can kick up some product and has some fall out. I recommend using an eyeshadow base and a primer to keep the powders in place.
   3. Although the packaging is sturdy, I don’t recommend bringing this on trips because it takes up too much space.
   4. This is an anniversary palette and consistent with UD’s vice palettes, this is pricey.

   This palette is not for everyday office look. If your are a beginner and would want colourful shades, there are other more affordable palettes in the market. However, if you are a collector and overall lover of makeup, this is a great addition to your collection. I just don’t this is a must have.

   These colors are bomb. They are more neutral toned than anything else so they are so nice on so many skin tones. I used this in several photoshoots and they always show up so beautiful, blend so smoothly, and the fallout is easily controlled. LOVE.

   I’m quite happy with this one! The last one got old quick and the combo of colors just didn’t seem to work with each other. These ones do!I feel like I will be able to do all kinds of things with this palette alone. Everyday, soft, bright, bold, smoky and just everything is possible.

   The spring loaded open button and big mirror are amazing, and really make this whole palette much easier to use imo. I’m not crazy about the outside of the palette. The flat black and the purple jeweled “UD” aren’t bad but it’s kind of boring if you ask me.. The double ended brush is the same as in the last Vice 4 palette. It feels kind of cheap but it works surprisingly well, especially the blending side.

   Now on the the shadows.. They seem to be much different in person and actually on me than they did in pics or just in the pan. For example, “suspend” looks like a lighter taupe color but in the swatch it came out as a warmer dark grey. That’s the only one that seems dramatically different but a few are also different on skin. I also feel like “hot pants” and “harajuku” from the Gewn Stefani palette are the same exact color..

   501 looks like it’s that right color of blue that I can pull off. Roadstripe is white but has a strong blue shift which you need to see in person. Acid Rain needs to be built up but I am really in love with the spring green hue. UV-B always looked kind of blue to be but it’s a very lovely violet in person. Goldmine might be my favorite! It’s very pigmented and I see myself using that one a lot! It’s gold but has a cool almost green factor to it.

   Overall I think pretty much every color in this one will really help complement my darker green eyes and that’s hard to do! I believe this will do me well over the summer and still be very usable come fall/winter. I would get it again and I give it a 4.7 just because the price is a bit high and I had to get it from UD directly( I hate their customer service) rather than Sephora. Get it and be colorful! 🙂
