Urban Decay collaberated with Gwen Stefani for an eyeshadow palette, and I was so excited about this release I actually ran into Sephora to make sure it was in stock before everyone snatched them up for Christmas gifts. I'm not normally a palette person but this one really caught my eye. You would think Gwen would have crazy colours in there, but surprisingly she says she's a neutral eye gal. Right up my alley.

The palette casing was apparently inspired from a picture hanging in her house which I think is so neat. I love the look of this palette inside and out. The colours (besides the pink and blue) are everyday wearable shades that I have been loving playing around with. The blue looks like it would be a great going out colour, but the pink I'm just unsure about. Pinks don't suit my colouring as they tend to make me look like I have an eye infection, but aside from that one colour I think this is the most beautiful eyeshadow palette and definitely recommend it. The colours are pigmented, there are a range of matte and shimmers and light and dark shades. Great selection for whatever look you could want.

I think would make a relly awesome Christmas gift for beauty lovers, or to add to your own list for Santa.

Do you have this palette? Is it on your wishlist? Let me know your thoughts below!

Holiday Gift Ideas

Bumble and Bumble Thickening Set
Great for the girl that likes a bit of volume to her hair. Bumble and Bumble have some great hair products and a bit more luxurious. This set includes two small size shampoo and conditioner, and a full size Dryspun spray which is the same price as the whole kit itself, so this is a great bargain.

Too Faced Melted Kisses and Sweet Cheeks
There are three individual sets included which make this great to split up for different people, or kept together as one large gift. There are three mini shades of the melted kisses liquid lipsticks and three love flush blushes.

Sephora Favourites Superstars
This is a great gift for any beauty lover. There are twelve makeup items to try, including seven full size. A great way to try out some of the top rated products without breaking the bank.

Sephora Formula X Nail Clicks
Two for the price of one, this little duo has a beautiful red and gold top coat. Great little stocking stuffer and perfect colours for the season.

Lush Bath Bombs
I think most people like a relaxing bath every now and then. Bath bombs are great for smoothing and hydrating the skin, and make the water look pretty. A nice gift for someone who could use a little time to themselves.

Colourpop Makeup
For some really great quality makeup at affordable prices, Colourpop is the way to go. They have a ton of shades to choose from and are awesome for a matte lip.

Sephora Favourites Beauty Sleep Skin Set
Four top skincare items are included in this set, including Sunday Riley, Korres, Ole Henrickson snd Origins.

Aerie PJ Bottoms
Personally I find Aerie to have some of the best pj's. They're super comfy, have nice patterns and fit really well. THey have some great patterns for christmas time right now.

Lipstick Mirror
Another easy stocking stuffer. This one is from Forever 21.

Burts Bees
This little set includes a lipbalm and a lemon cuticle butter.
