Urban Decay The Theodora Palette

What it is: One of two gorgeous limited-edition palettes inspired by the Disney movie “Oz the Great and Powerful.” What it does: Inspired by the Disney film’s theme of good witch vs. bad witch (and the good witch/bad witch dichotomy in all of us), Urban Decay created two collectible palettes loaded with beautiful, never-before-seen shades. Recreate Theodora’s captivating, edgy look with eight all new and exclusive eye shadows in six pans (this set includes two duo-shades that are split in half, with a different color on each side of the pan). Every shade features Urban Decay’s Pigment Infusion System™, the proprietary blend of ingredients that gives each shade its velvety texture, rich color, serious staying power, and blendability. This set contains: - 6 x 0.05 oz Eyeshadow in Broken (pale cream satin), Beware (warm brown matte), Bewitch (dark charcoal brown satin), West (deep metallic brown shimmer), Spell (black satin with green and gold shimmer and gold metallic with tonal glitter), Jealous (pale green pearl and dark green pearl) - 0.03 oz 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in Zero (black) - 0.1 oz Super-Saturated High Gloss Color in Theodora (bright red cream) - A card with step-by-step instructions on how to get Theodora’s look from the film What else you need to know: The Theodora Palette incorporates Urban Decay’s Build Your Own Palette format for total versatility. When you finish the original shades (or whenever you get the urge to experiment), just pop them out and pop your favorite UD shadows into the cool collectible tin. It features a moody, colorful skyscape flanked by Rorschach-like patterns, with Urban Decay and the name of the film in foil lettering.

This is a nice palette. I like the colors, which make a nice variation of smokey eye. The red lip is a change for me that I liked. I just wish there was a brush in the kit. The tin is great for travel otherwise and has a large mirror.

I got this for my friend as a birthday gift and she absolutely loved it! The eyeshadows are gorgeous and high quality. She loved the lip color it came with as well. Overall it was more than well worth the cost.

This palette is amazing!
-04.28.13
I originally was trying choose between Glinda and Theodora. I went with Glinda because I felt it was more day time verse Theodora's being more night time (and i was worried about the red lip). BUT I didn't expect these palettes to be so amazing! So got the Glinda one fell in love and had to get this one. So glad I did. They are two totally different looks as they're supposed to be. Focusing on the Theodora palette in particular I would say the eye shades complemented my eye color better AND I was not expecting this but the red lip was amazing on me. I say this in such shock because I have a pale complexion and I have tried multiple shades of red time and time again because everyone says a red lip would look great on me and none of them did until now. Idk what I'm going to do if I use it up bc the red was a special oz red. Lastly, I want to say this kit makes a beautiful look that I will be wearing a lot.

Quick Take: good value
I feel it's safe to say that my "honeymoon phase" with this purchase is over and I am STILL in love with it. To be honest when I got the e-mail that these came out I wasn't really pumped. But after I saw the movie I fell in love with Theodora's makeup and had to get my hands on this. It's a great value, beautiful packaging and for the first time ever I can say that I like everthing in this palette. The eyeliner is great-a basic for every makeup collection(but I love Perversion even more). The shadows are very pigmented and the colors are suitable for my brown eyes. You can use the browns to re-create Theodora's sultry brown eyes; the gold reminds me of the yellow brick road , it does have chunky glitter but it doesn't bother me (however I like it best on my bottom lash line). Last but not least, the super-saturated lip pencil I was actually prepared to be disappointed but I actually like it. I'm a frequent wearer of the red lip so I love how bold it is. Its very pigmented, not sticky and creamy and lasted me a while. I wouldn't recommend if you like a matte red lip though-the finish is quite glossy. I'm very happy with this palette!

Quick Take: good value, smooth, pigmated, glossy
I bought this set for the eye shadows primarily. All of which are beautiful! However, what really surprised me was the liner and lip pencil. WOW! The lip pencil goes on smooth and has stay-power! Plus, it has this great gloss shine, so I can use it as a liner or over my entire lip! The eye liner is great, too! It glides on easily, and with a little eye primer and some setting powder, it stays on for hours! The eyeshadows are very pigmented, but work best with a primer. I haven't used the green combo or the yellow/black one yet, but the browns make a great daytime smokey eye. Overall, awesome pallet!

I still have not touched the green or the gold/black but I love the other colors they are a little more matte than most urban decay pallets which is a nice change.
The lipstick is beautiful! All around a great buy!

Quick Take: good value
I bought this palette initially because I'm a sucker for packaging and I had not tried UD in a loooong time, and have long deemed it 'training wheels for people getting into make up'.
Well, this palette left me pleasantly surprised. I tried it out on myself, a pale ginger with aqua green eyes. If it didn't make my skin look lighter, and my eyes pop, I could have sworn I'd have been dreaming.
A lot of eye shadows tend to make me look darker [not a bad thing for everyone, but I love my pallor], or tend to look dirty combined with my eye color. Nope, this enhanced it.
I decided to take it for a test run on a model at an editorial fashion shoot I had this past week, for a Dita Von Teese meets play ful pin up, and on a tanned blonde with honey coloured eyes, she look fantastic. The minute she was done, she begged me to know what I had used, since she wanted to run out and get it.
This is definitely the better of the two palettes [I find the Glinda one harder to use, and more costumey], and can be used for personal and professional make up looks.
So sad it's limited edition, because those 4 shades [not the duos] should stick around!

Okay
-04.08.13
Quick Take: repeat colors
Formula: The shadows are pigmented with the least pigmented and slightly dry Broken which is that pale cream shade. The duo shades Spell which is the middle one on the bottom row is a little too chunky glittery for me but the other shades are nice and my favorite would have to be Jealous which are those green pigments. I can think of some other UB shades already in my collection that are similar to these and I probably will hardly ever use Broken or Spell which is a waste. The liner is the usual creamy UD quality and always comes in handy although I own like a hundred of these pencils.
Super Saturated Gloss Shade Theodora-Bright Red Cream. This has got to be the best item out of the entire kit next to the green shadows. It's very glossy and more of a pinkish tone red but still very bright and looks just like it does on Mila's character. It glides on nicely and reminds me of my Asphyxia fat lip pencils in my stash. Only issue with this is that it's so creamy the product wastes down rather quickly and you can end up finishing it really fast as opposed to a regular lipstick.
Bottom line: The metal tin and artwork along with the beautiful look card commemorating the Theodora film character is a great keepsake for Wizard Of Oz lovers (me me me) plus the gorgeous lip pencil and some decent practical shades make it great for most women to use. The con for me is the pale cream, glittery Spell duo and the price point. I know, if you break it down in pieces it's seems like a bargain but I think it's ridiculous for this small palette. I wish they would offer more product and less pale shades like they use to do in the past with fifteen shadows and such. I'm glad I did not spend my own $50 on it because it would be disappointing. But this palette is twice as good as Glinda which I'll review next. Glinda just looks gorgeous packaged but so not worth it. If you must buy one of these purchase Theodora because you'll get more practical use out of it
