The limited edition palette includes 5 shades of eye shadow, each featuring Urban Decay’s Pigment Infusion System – a proprietary blend of ingredients that gives every shade its velvety texture, rich color, serious staying power and blendability. Two of the shades look sort of familiar while the other three are completely new to me. The shiny black case features the Ezekiel passage voiced by Jules (aka Samuel L. Jackson) in the film. Inside, there’s a good-sized mirror & a double-ended brush. As with all other Urban Decay eye shadows, the ones in this palette are also smooth and easy to blend. They provide good pigmentation and are long-lasting. Upon first glance, this palette looks pretty ordinary but it isn’t until you start to play with it that you realize how compatible these shades truly are. I love this palette but wish it was slightly smaller (with less cardboard packaging) for travel. If you are looking for a good basic neutral palette with mostly mattes, you will like this one. I sure do!
Righteous
Described as a “light cream matte”. This shade was slightly powdery when I applied it is a gorgeous bright yellow-toned beige, and works well as a highlight.
Tyranny
Described as a “warm brown matte”. This shade has good pigmentation and is a good base or transitional color. It has orange undertones, is quite versatile and it performs well.
Vengeance
Described as a “deep taupe-brown matte-satin”. This shade is my favourite in the palette. It has great color payoff and the same soft, velvety texture as the others, but I find myself reaching for it more often.
Furious
Described as a “white satin”. This shade has a pretty pearly sheen to it but I do wish it was slightly more opaque. Aside from that it functions well as an inner corner highlight.
Anger
Described as a “black satin with slight tonal sparkle”. This shade was my least favourite of the bunch because it seemed harder to work with/blend. Regardless it could be used to smoke out the crease or can also be used as a liner.
