Today I have something different to share. I bought the OZ Glinda Palette when it first came out online at Sephora. I really like Urban Decay eye shadows. When I first got into make up, I was using mainly Japanese make up brands but then I switched to Urban Decay. I have monolids, and I'm growing out my eyebrows, so there's not going to be any eye look, but I just wanted to share this.
I realized it's hard for me to describe colours, so I've included Sephora's description since their description is most likely taken from the press release. I really wish I could be more descriptive with colours, but I'm pretty limited in going deep down into the colour.
Packaging of the palette
It's pretty packaging and I usually lean towards the brighter things, so I felt like the cover of this palette was more me than the Theodora Palette.
The set opened up. I have used the shadows before so my pictures aren't newly opened pictures.
The pack of the postcard teaches you how to get Glinda's look.
The palette with the 24/7 Glide-on eye pencil in Rockstar. I have the eyeshadow Rockstar, so I like that I have the eye pencil.
Tornado which is a dark purple. On Sephora the description is: Tornado (vibrant deep purple shimmer)
Aura has two colours, on the left it seems like a light bluish colour and the right side is a cream. On Sephora it's described as:
Aura (iridescent white with blue shift and iridescent white with red shift),
Magic - baby pink on the picture it leans towards a little purple but on my eye it seems a pretty powdery pink. On Sephora it's described as
Magic (pinkish purple with golden shimmer),
Illusion - Peach. On Sephora it's described as Illusion (pale peach satin),
Oz: two colours. On the left it's like an olive with glitter and the left is like a silver. On Sephora it's described as
Oz (gold with gold glitter and silver with silver glitter),
South - To me it's like a gun metal grey but it leans a little brown to me. On Sephora it's listed as
South (warm pale gray shimmer with silver micro-glitter)

Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Color in Glinda. This is a natural lip colour. This is my favourite item of this palette. Before I bought it, this was the item that changed my mind on whether I wanted this palette or not. I think it looks pretty on my skin tone and it's pretty glossy. It's not like a lip stain though so it does rub off. I wouldn't say it was moisturizing either. I wore it to a wedding and I had to reapply because I was constantly drinking water and pop since the food was spicy. So this rubbed off on the glass.

I didn't want to give a false way of the shadows look so I just decided to rotate my arm.
In this angle Magic looks more pink-purple
I decided to compare different ones that I had before.
L: Mushroom R: South
L: Mushroom R: South
I had to add more colour in my swatch so that a difference could be seen. I felt like South had more of a brownish/coopery tone. Whereas Mushroom seems to lean more on the cooler side.
L: Rockstar R: Tornado
L: Rockstar R: Tornado
I feel like Rockstar is a bit darker than Tornado.
Overall, I like this palette. I'm very happy I have the lip colour but I have to sharpen it, that's the only thing. I hope the pencil doesn't break or any pieces ending up on the colour after I sharpen it. I have pencil sharpeners but I usually use those for my eye pencils.
For the two colours that I swatched to compare, I do prefer Mushroom and Rockstar more than South and Tornado. For me, I feel like Mushroom and Rockstar are more pigmented. The entire palette is very pretty but for Magic and Peach, I have to add more to my brush to get it to show. I apply make up in the morning while I'm still half a sleep, so that could be the reason but I also have monolids, so although it might not be noticeable, I wanna know I can see it :).
I bought this palette on Sephora.ca for C$58.00
