Urban Decay Theodora Swatches

January 30, 2013 By Carleenp 1 Comment

The Urban Decay Theodora palette is based on the upcoming Disney Movie The Great and Powerful OZ, which is prequel to the Wizard of Oz movie. Mila Kunis plays Theodora. I ordered both the Theodora and Glinda Palettes and have a review, photos, and swatches of both. You can see the other one here: Urban Decay Glinda Swatches.

I love both of the palettes. The Theodora set comes with a black 24/7 eyeliner and a super saturated high gloss lip color. Photos and swatches are below. Here is the back of the box.

The case has the movie logo on the front. It is designed to allow you to switch out eye shadow shades, so you can mix and match as you like.

Inside are eight Urban Decay eye shadows, 4 full pans and 2 split pans.

Here is another look at the case, with the lip color included.

The shadows in the Urban Decay Theodora set are as follows:

Broken and Beware.

Bewitch and West.

Spell and Jealous.

Here are the Urban Decay Theodora swatches taken under a daylight bulb.

The below swatches are taken in standard indoor light.

Broken and Beware swatches.

Bewitch and West swatches.

Swatches of each side of Spell.

Each side of Jealous.

The lip color is a bright red and it is indeed super saturated.

Here is a swatch of the Urban Decay Theodora lip color.

The included eyeliner is black. I did not swatch it since it is a standard shade. You can find the Glinda and Theodora limited edition sets online at Urban Decay, Sephora, and Ulta, plus they are in the Sephora and Ulta stores.

Urban Decay Glinda Swatches

January 30, 2013 By Carleenp 4 Comments

My order of the Urban Decay Glinda and Theodora Palettes arrived and I immediately jumped on them to take photos and do swatches. I’ll post each makeup set in a separate post. The makeup sets are based on the upcoming Disney movie, the Great and Powerful Oz, which is a prequel to the Wizard of Oz movie. Michele Williams plays the role of Glinda.

First up is the Urban Decay Glinda palette, which also comes with a 24/7 eyeliner and a super saturated high gloss lip color. I am already in love with this palette and I have only had it open for a few hours! You can see the other palette here: Urban Decay Theodora Swatches.

First are photos of the Glinda Set, followed by swatches. The cover of the case has the movie logo.

The case allows you to switch out shadows, which I really like. I am already planning the combos that I might want to put together beyond what is included in the set.

Below are the shades Tornado and Aura.

Magic and Illusion.

OZ and South.

Here are swatches of the set. Tornado and South are my two favorite shades in the palette, but I love all of the colors in this kit.

Tornado and Aura (the silver half) swatches.

Aura (the peach half) and Magic swatches

Illusion and Oz (the gold shade) swatches.

Oz (the silver shade) and South swatches.

Here the Glinda swatches all together from a bit of a distance and in slightly darker light.

The lip color is a pretty brown/pink/mauve shade. It is going to be flattering on a lot of different skin tones.

Below is a swatch of the Glinda super saturated lip color.

The eyeliner is a purple 24/7 liner. I didn't swatch is, since it is a pretty standard shade. I love this set and I really like the Theodora Palette too, so I am glad that I got both! They are limited edition and available online at Urban Decay, Sephora, and Ulta. Plus you can get them in Sephora and Ulta stores.
