What else you need to know:

$39

Regular price would've been 16*3= $48, so you save $9, plus you get an XL size UDPP! Too bad Midnight Cowboy is such a glitterbomb.

Yea that's what i was going to say. Alot of ud's glittery eye shadows have way too much fallout.

I have Goddess and hate that color. Waaay too glittery, and the picture online didn't look like it did in person. I was greatly disappointed. I didn't even expect it to be glittery. Luckily it was bought with some free credit I was given by accident and allowed to keep(Yay Sephora! lol), or I would have been more ticked.

Yay !! I don't care much for Goddess, but wow, over sized UDPP (i'm finishing mine!) and Midnight Cowboy i've been eyeing for ages !! I'll have to check out Goddess, but this might end in my bag

I agree about the glittery part though.

Are you kidding? I want Goddess and Adore soooo bad, but I've been banned from buyin makeup

Aww I wish they had different selections of e/s ~ they should come out with 2 combos.

Have you seen swatches? This is Goddess. As you can see, big chunks of glitter and fallout galore. I just don't like it.

[Sunshine80]

oh wow that is so good to know since I've been dying for their vault full of shadows package I thought they were all as good as Shattered which I love

Which colors do you girls recommend? I do not like so much glitter at all

[Ashley]

Their mattes are really great, very smooth and pigmented. When you go on their site, just avoid anything that says glitter, microglitter, etc.

Have you guys tried wetting your brush with visine and then applying the glittery ones? It works and the glitter stays put and doesn't fall everywhere!

I do this. Applying it damp is the only way to make it work for the most part. I emphasize the word DAMP. When I tried with my brush too wet, the color totally changed on me.

I think Goddess is actually quite beautiful. I love my UD eyeshadows. Cherry is my favourite hightlight, it does have glitters though, not a big deal to me, just tap the brush off well before applying, and then pat before sweeping so you don't sweep glitter all over the place.

[CellyCell]

Goddess is really pretty. It's a color I seem to always swatch every time I hit the UD testers. Midnight (hate that long, ugly name) is pretty too for a basic look. But I agree about the glitter fallouts is caca but I still love my Urban Decay.

[pinksugar]

Hm... It's a shame the boxes only come with those colors... the golden one is quite pretty, but I don't like huge chunks of glitter. Still, it's a pretty good price!

[Kathy]

I love my UD e/s, but like most everyone else, I can't stand those ultra glittery ones. So...if they made this with some different colors I'd be all over it!
