Four words; Urban Decay Gwen Stefani. Four words that have recently made beauty lovers go crazy. Everything from the palettes to the individual products themselves are beautifully packaged and are beautiful too. The whole aesthetic of Urban Decay is stunning. It's no surprise when these landed through my letterbox on my birthday, it was like a dream come true.
The boxes are super pretty but the packaging of the products themselves are also 11/10. Urban Decay were smart and sent out a matching lipstick and liner, officially winning at life. I was on two minds whether or not to wait and take photos of the products before use, but the excitement got the better of me.
The Gwen Stefani Brow Box* is one of the cutest brow set I have ever laid eyes on. The design of the packaging is very similar to the Gwen blushes and eyeshadow palettes. It comes with a wax and two powders, as well as a pair of the cutest tweezers ever and two small brushes. The wax helps sit the brows down in place before the powder(s). The shade on the left was perhaps made for my brows. Thank you, UD.
With red lipsticks, I would say a lipliner is essential, and to match the lipstick above, the Gwen Stefani 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in 714* is my chosen liner to go. As it's from the glide-on collection, you could probably guess it does exactly as the name would suggest; it literally does glide on. For classy red lips, then the Gwen Stefani Lipstick in 714* will most definitely be the lipstick that is needed in your collection. It is by far one of the most beautiful red shades in my collection, and I own many. It's creamy and highly pigmented - it's fair to say I was blown away the first time I used it. Used in conjunction, my red lips are bolder than bold.
The setting sprays from Urban Decay are raved about like crazy. I've been trying out the De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray*. It claims to be an oil-control, and with having oily skin, I jumped upon this to give it a shot. The first time I primed, course used foundation then sprayed this. Fair to say it helped my makeup stay in tack in almost all areas of my face for slightly longer. My nose, however, was still oily, but the makeup did last a little longer there than usual.
I am loving the Gwen Stefani range so far, and I am only three products in. I just need all the other lipstick and lipliner shades, and the blush and eyeshadow palette to complete my collection now. Not to mention the rest of the Urban Decay range itself. If only money did grow on trees, eh?
Have you tried the Gwen Stefani range?
