Urban Decay Feminine & Fun Palette Review Plus Hair Bun!

Happy Wednesday everyone! On my fiance's birthday we headed to Atlantic City and I mentioned in a previous post how we went to the Columbus Farmer's Market. Well they sell a ton more besides just fruits and vegetables. There was this person also selling these two eye shadow palettes and they were only $20 each. I love Urban Decay and I love trying out new palettes so I didn't think it was a bad deal.
Today I finally swatched them and I love them. Such great colors! The Feminine Palette has more neutral colors whereas the Fun Palette has all kinds of fun colors, hence the name. I know you can't pick these palette's up now, but I know you can purchase them on eBay for about the same price I paid for mine, so in case you're in love with the colors you can buy it there!

Swatches in natural light without the primer potion.

From top left to right: Woodstock (a very pretty dark pink color, but I am afraid of how pink it is, maybe too pink), Baked (a color that is in the Naked palette), Uxi (this is my absolute favorite color, you can't see it in the pictures, but it's a pretty silver color with tiny sequins in it, so pretty!). And then from bottom left to right: Sin, Flipside, and Psychedeic Sister (this is such a pretty purple color!)

Now onto the Feminine palette. Right now Urban Decay has a Feminine palette, but they don't contain the same colors.

This is probably my favorite palette. I could definitely see myself wearing this one often.

From left to right: Stray Dog, Swf (another one of my favorite colors because of the little glitter in it) and Midnight Cowboy. All very pretty neutral colors.

From left to right: Aquarius (a really pretty teal color) Dark Horse, and Ecstacy (love this color as well).

This palette also includes the Eden primer potion, one I didn't even know existed. But I will be trying out! Anyone try this primer potion? Any opinions on it?
I finally got my sock bun hair accessory in the mail yesterday. I was so excited to finally use it, I put it in my hair today. I feel like a librarian. haha. Can't wait to see hear the fiance thinks! I want to do different hair styles with it, but I have a lot to do today so I only did a real quick messy bun. I will tell you what though, it definitely cuts my styling time in half. It's great!

Can't really see the bun in this picture because of my dark curtains but it's messy and I enjoy it. haha.
