I’ve had a very happy time swatching this amazing set that launches into Debenhams on 15th February and then nationwide from 1st March. All the pencils applied really well – felt very soft and creamy, and I think produced beautiful, intense colours. If I have one complaint, it is that there is a bit too much brown. The colours are photographed under lamplight – it’s dark outside!

Your swirl swatches are cute!
That is a ridiculous amount of browns, especially considering there is only one black, and no other near-blacks (ie: charcoal).
I usually associate Urban Decay with fantastic colour selection so this amount of brown is kind of disappointing.
Love the swatches but yes a lot of browns! x
I love the swirl swatches 🙂 You’re right about the number of browns, but I still want it, I love the urban decay pencils 🙂
Ooooh amazing! Love your swirls heh so cute 🙂

When you get to my age you can never have enough browns, my days of rockin’ the black or even the charcoal are over, so I for one applaud the browns. Thanks for this. Jan x
do you know the pricing of these yet?
I asked in store yesterday and it’s £60, apparently all the pencils individually would be worth over £200 though…
I got this as a Christmas present, and had such a hard time deciding whether or not to keep it; it’s lovely but I have one brown eyeliner that comes out about once a year, so couldn’t justify holding onto 4 browns, 1 browny-green, 1 purply-brown, and some lighter brown-ish tones. I opted instead for the 24/7 Jackpot set, which had 9 fab colours in travel size, and one full-size Zero, and was able to afford to add the Deluxe Shadow box to my collection, which I’ve wanted for ages. I guess if you’re a makeup artist who would use the full spectrum of browns and loves Urban Decay over other brands, it’s probably a good buy but I guess I’m a die-hard brights n’ blacks girl!
These colours are so cool. I’m a huge Urban Decay fan, so I can’t wait to have some new colours to play with.
