Urban Decay Rollergirl Palette



Urban Decay Rollergirl Palette - $32.00
For the girl who works and plays hard - easy daytime neutrals, one vivid bright and a portable lip gloss ready for the office or an impromptu happy hour.

You might be suprised to know that I don't own very many Urban Decay products. The only Urban Decay products in my collection are:
  • Naked Palette - which I love.
  • Book Of Shadows Vol III (New York) - untouched and never opened, don't ask.
I'm not quite sure why I don't "love" Urban Decay, they never did anything bad to me I just seem to get confused by their products and packaging. I think for me Urban Decay is like Benefit, their items are a little too kitchy for me. However, the Naked Palette changed my mind about UD and I decided to give them a closer look. Which brings us full circle back to the Rollergirl Palette.


Something about the colors really caught my eye. I love neutral eye colors and bright lips so I thought this palette would be a great little combo I could carry around. Urban Decay Rollergirl Palette contains:
  • Mini Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Crush - hot pink
  • 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil - Whiskey
4 Eye Shadows:
  • Woodstock - super hot pink with shimmer
  • Verve - pale beige/oyster taupe with shimmer
  • Suspect - sheer bronze/gold
  • Darkhorse - dark chocolate brown/bronze with slight shimmer





I know some of these colors appear in other Urban Decay palettes but I'm new to Urban Decay.  I like that I have them all together in this compact little palette. The Rollergirl Palette is packaged like all the other UD palettes, in a hard cardboard-like box with a magnetic lid to keep all the contents safe. The shadows are super smooth, glide on the lid easily and blend well together. I'm glad the shadows are shimmery and not filled with glitter. I still need to figure out a proper way to get that super bright pink color into my look.

I've loved the look of this palette ever since swatches of it started popping up in people's blogs because I think hot pink and brown go so well together! I don't think I can justify the purchase for myself since I already have Darkhorse and probably and dupes of the middle shades, so I'd really just be buying it for the pink eyeshadow!

the palette looks really pretty! i like the last 3 colors but i dont know how i would wear the pink ( prett still!) i would prob attempt use jam an eye shadow brush in and use it as a blush
The lippie would make a nice color to wear with the pink
Love whiskey pencil!!

The pink can actually work as a blush. I also wear dark horse in the outer v and in the crease, with woodstock just above dark horse. Very pretty
