It's almost time! The newest additions to the Gwen Stefani X Urban Decay collection will be available
online January 12th, and in stores starting in February.
Obviously the eyeshadow palette was a huge hit, but now Gwennie Poo is adding a blush palette, a Brow Box, lipsticks and lipliners to the collection. NOW I CAN BE JUST LIKE GWEN. Ok, I'll try not to get too stalker-ish about it, but it really is a solid collection.
Let's start with the fact that he packaging alone is adorable.
The Blush Palette ($45) has 6 wearable shades. Depending on your skin tone some of them can be used as highlighter shades. I feel super lucky with this palette (I'm a medium skin tone that tans easily in summer months) because I can use Lo-Fi as a contour color, Angel and Hush can be used as a highlighter, and the other 2 shades I can use as blush shades.

The Brow Box ($30) in Bathwater Blonde is actually my favorite of the whole collection. So simple, but so adorable. It's 4.5 x 6 x 2.5 CM. So tiny, but such a brilliant idea to include a mini tweezer in the box! I never have to go around without my eyebrows being on point.

The 2 brow colors are both taupe in nature. The shade on the left is slightly darker, so good for brown brows. The shade on the right is perfect for my blondies. |
The Lipstick ($18 each) and Lipliner ($20 each) all come in corresponding colors. There are 7 shades in all, but I've only collected 5 of them so far. I think I need all of them! Ex-Girlfriend is the most perfect nude shade for me. While Firebird is an incredible purple-y-fuschia. The reds are all perfection, of course. Spiderweb is the perfect glossy red, and 714 is such a creamy matte! Guaranteed your lips will not feel dry with that one.

Today I used the lighter shade from the Brow Box to sculpt my brows. I used neutral shades from the Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette on my eyes, and then used Danger with a wet brush as an eyeliner. From the blush palette I used Angel as a highlighter, Lo-Fi to contour, and Easy as a pop color on the apples of my cheeks. And last, but certainly not least, I used Firebird on my lips.
