How much you want to wager that most of those shades are the same as what's in their permanent range but with different names? I think my spidey sense is tingling a wee bit.
urban decay really doesn't need to create another neutral shade...ever. good golly.
i tend to agree with you, shelly. i'm not going to bother with the neutral shades, although blitz does look interesting. they seem to be almost dead on for most of the colors UD has. but i'm just going off internet pictures, which are always tricky.
Quite a few of these colors look pretty similar to what was in the BOS IV, and I think Shelly T. is right, there is more than likely some repackaging/renaming going on here. I'd like to get it if I had extra money just because I love UD, but I'll probably pass on it.
This is why i stopped getting UD. I end up getting all crazed by the hype and spend 50$ on a palette I dont need. I just gave away my black palette and traded my naked 2 and I haven't been missing them since I have other shadows in my collection that are similar. I think I'll just get individuals shadows from now on....I just wish they sold refill pans.
When are they launching these new palettes? I finally got one of their on sale/discontinued Skull shadow boxes ( had shades I don't have) and I'm really pleased with it- marked down from 36 to 12 bucks- and got a bunch of goodies including 4 samples of the new Naked Skin liquid foundations....not bad! But I do think its a little annoying that they put the same, or really similar shades in all their palettes. I know they discontinued this shade "Snatch"- pink champagne with gold glitter flecks, that was in the Show Pony shadow box, and I suspect they just added cool silver glitter to the pinkish base to make a new shade.. I guess that's easy enough to do. Gotta love Urban, snagging us continuously with snazzy packaging, cute names, and great shadows....though a little rip-off- esque :D
yeah yasmin, i saw you post the naked basics palette on facebook & i just didn't know what to think. yes, everyone has said they wanted a few more matte shades with the naked palette... then this pops up. i sort of think UD knew what they were doing when the made the naked palettes & planned to cash in on yet another palette. i won't drop another $50 for that thing. heck, i probably wouldn't drop $20 on it. i bought a few NYX matte shadows that compliment my naked palettes well!
Jeez. This is too much! I just picked up a total of 7 shadows from that big sale they're having online right now, and I've already got 5 UD palettes plus a few other singles, so I probably won't get anything new from them in a while. I definitely feel like this all this new stuff is overkill. I'd really like to see more single shadows offered, like colors that are only in palettes now. Or they could do what MAC is doing right now and re-release some older shades. I'd prefer that by far. Thank you for sharing, Yasmin!

At this point in time I don't have any info on release dates or prices. The pictures came from UD employees or associates.

So *that's* the all matte palette that was being rumoured last year/earlier this year...
@Sofia: Me too. I still think they didn't think their "Build Your Own Palette" system through.

I hope this palette has more than just shadows from the permanent line
Aug 19, 2012

@Ashley - I have to agree. Six shadows and knowing UD it's going to be at least $32.

Borrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing.
Instead of coming out with mediocre eyeshadow palettes, they should start focusing on other makeup items they have.

Vice must be supplanting BOS.
@Rikki...
<<Instead of coming out with mediocre eyeshadow palettes, they should start focusing on other makeup items they have.>>
Or rethinking their Build Your Own Palette system. (Yep. Still think they screwed up with that one.)

I agree with Shelly they look like many of the shadows from the permanent range
