UD was one of the first major makeup purchases I made. I remember my friend Diane (who was going to beauty school at the time) came out to visit me and she had an UD pallet and some Bare Minerals. I was in love. Before, I was using regular drug store stuff and wasn't really thrilled with what it was doing for/to me. Diane also was a miracle worker and made me look gorgeous! My next paycheck was spent at Ulta on BE and UD. I love the vibrancy of UD colors and the pigmentation is amazing. I learned to mix colors I wouldn't normally mix together... you don't always have to play it safe with using colors all in the same family.
Its been a few years and I've branched out and bought many other brands since. I do love me some UD, but I've since gone more indie. I decided it was time to purchase form UD again. The prices were so freaking amazing, how could I not?!
Here is what I got:
Tinted Moisturizer in Bodyguard ($3)
Liquid Liner in Ecstasy ($2)
24/7 Liners in Dime and Baked ($2/each)
I spent $9+shipping. One UD eyeliner retails at $18. My guess is that they are changing packaging and/or discontinuing these items, but still... its a steal!
I love the 24/7 pencils and the liquid liner. I did not like the tinted moisturizer. The moisturizer made me break out terribly and it was too dark. I thought medium/light would work for me since I'm not completely pale. I'll be seeing if my niece would like to try it since she is a bit darker than me and her skin might agree with the formula.
Here is a very quick look I did using most of the products.
