Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already.

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Wow these are beautiful! Divebar is such a unique colour, and I love that all of the shimmery/metallic shades almost have this duochrome to them. These look truly UD and like they’re back at their colourful roots of the company. Looking forward to your full review, Christine! 🙂

Hmm, looks like the new Lounge e/s is a little different from the old Lounge shadow. The original Lounge had a strong burgundy undertone to it that I really loved.This looks more golden.

Fireball and Riff both look wonderful to me! I’ll wait for you to review them though 😉
beautiful swatches as always, Christine! thank you 🙂

Christine Avatar

Yes, it is! This isn’t a review – just a super quick sneak peek – worked like a mad woman just to get photos up by midnight, lol! The full review will always have all the information and details, while the sneak peek is literally me working as quickly as possible to get you photos/swatches sooner so I can then work on actually writing everything up 🙂 You can also read the official launch post, which includes all the specifics about the new shades: http://www.temptalia.com/urban-decay-summer-2015-collection

I don’t usually like red-based shades but I absolutely LOVE Backfire! And Dive Bar is gorgeous too. Is Lounge a repromote? It seems to me that I either have it or have seen it in past. I just wish UD would make its shadows available in a “pro-pan” type of format and come out with a better, sleeker multi-pan palette! They’d be wise to take a leaf from Inglot’s or even Sephora’s book!

Christine Avatar

I wonder if it’s because it isn’t SUPER warm and red? It seemed ever-so-slightly warmer in the pan than swatched. Lounge was out before! 🙂 I don’t know if they’ve released it (at least, not offhand) in their reformulation or just awhile back. I want to say it was originally a Deluxe Eyeshadow…

I am so pleased to see Lounge back in the lineup! My backup just came out of it’s box, and I wondered what I could do when it got used up. There were a few dupes as far as color goes, but I just love UD eye shadows. I have oily eye lids, and even when I forget primer, UD eye shadows last until I take them off. The old formulation is great, and I love the new formulation as well. I am going to grab a new Lounge, I am so excited for to be able to do it.

Is it just me or does Backfire look just like Last Call, and Tonic looks like Asphyxia? I still have the old version of Llunge but on me it’s kinda too orangey. Dive Bar looks super pretty.

Jen Avatar

I’m so excited to see all of the new shadows. Especially pleased to see Lounge is back and oh, so in love with that lavender shade! But I am a little afraid that they may be discontinuing other shades to make room for these. Hoping they will just expand the line and not Mrs with the current lineup.

Ronda Avatar

I’m so BEYOND happy that Lounge is back. I still have some of mine left from ages ago because I have been afraid to use it all gone! So happy, so so happy!

Kitty Avatar

All are quite pretty.

Christine, thank you for posting photos showing the ingredients. So many brands don’t list their ingredients anywhere online and it’s rough on those with sensitive skin and skin allergies to ascertain whether a product would work for them or not.

Christine Avatar

I noticed with these that they seemed different from shade to shade. Normally, there’s a pretty standard listing and then a +/- list, but after I skimmed three of the blushes and they seemed different, I figured I’d just shoot them all (including the eyeshadows) since I had the boxes (I don’t always get the boxes if they’re samples!). The glosses seemed to have a uniform list, though!

* add bronzey to those colors & shake it all around! Flamethrower & Cosmopolitan by MUG, Inglot 407, MUFE D708 Pinky Copper, I’m drooling over all of them rt now!
I’ve had my eye on MUG’s Sin City palette w/the pigments for a while now too. & now UD has Fireball & Sideline! Yay for bronzey-pinky-orangey-peachy-golden-copper shades!!!
