Urban Decay Spring 2017 Eyeshadows (Shimmers) Reviews, Photos, Swatches
1985
Urban Decay 1985 Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a brighter, medium-dark magenta purple with pink undertones and a pearly sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation, which was buildable to opaque coverage with a heavier hand or two layers patted on (not swept). The texture was firmer in the pan and a bit drier overall, though I had no issues blending and diffusing the shade on the lid. On me, the color lasted for just over eight hours before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview
$19.00/0.05 oz. - $380.00 Per Ounce
The formula is typically described as "high-pigment" that "stays on your lids" and goes on "seamlessly." Their permanent range has a lot of fantastic shades in it, and many of them are pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing. Some of their matte are real workhorse kind of shades with soft, smooth, silky, and blendable textures, while their shimmers and pearly shades are very rich in payoff and apply beautifully to the lid. They wear between seven and nine hours on me, depending on the shade and finish.

Blitz
Urban Decay Blitz Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a brilliant gold with subtle, warm undertones and a metallic sheen with subtle, gold micro-glitter. As far as gold can go, it wasn’t as warm-toned as a lot of Urban Decay golds, as it was less orange and more yellow in its base. The eyeshadow had a very smooth, blendable texture that was dense enough that it felt cream-like but worked and applied like a powder still. It had rich, opaque color coverage that lasted for eight hours on me. I did have a bit of fallout from the micro-glitter, though. This shade is exclusive to Urban Decay’s website.

C-Note
Urban Decay C-Note Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a muted, medium green with neutral-to-cool undertones paired with a metallic finish. The more I blended out the eyesahdow, the more yellow the undertone appeared, but the reflective sheen seemed almost cool-toned at times. I found that it looked cooler when paired with cooler eyeshadows (blues) than warmer ones (golds). The pigmentation was fantastic, while the texture was soft, a little looser in the pan so it had a touch of fallout during application if I wasn’t careful, but it was blendable and fairly easy to use. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.

Thunderbird
Urban Decay Thunderbird Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a deep brown with a smoldering, black base and a metallic finish. It was intensely pigmented and yielded full coverage with the barest touch of a brush. The consistency was smooth, dense without being too firm in the pan but had no fallout during application. It blended out easily on my lid and lasted for eight and a half hours on me.

Smokeout
Urban Decay Smokeout Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a deep, purple-leaning taupe with hints of brown in the underneath–the single version appeared deeper and cooler overall compared to the last time I tried it (in a palette). It had a smooth, blendable texture that wasn’t too soft or too firm in the pan. The pigmentation was incredible, and the eyeshadow wore well for eight hours before fading on me.

Blonde
Urban Decay Blonde Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a light ivory with warm, yellowish undertones and a gold-to-pink shift in its pearly sheen. It had good color coverage with a soft, lightly dusty texture that applied without any trouble at all, but it could look a little dry on my lids at times (which are a bit drier at the moment). I noticed signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear.

Vice
Urban Decay Vice Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a medium-dark purple with cooler undertones and a pearly sheen. The texture was slightly drier, so the edges didn’t look as seamless or as diffused when blended without some extra effort (but totally doable). It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that lasted for just over seven and a half hours on me.

Urban Decay Eyeshadows | Look Breakdown
I’m loving the bright metallic colors! 1985 is a real winner. 🙂
They were fun to use!
I was ready to rush out to get 1985 too, when I saw I already had it in my Vice 4 palette! I was obsessing about Cake in the Alice collection, but I think I like 1985 better now. It’s a cooler tone magenta and seems to go on better. Both are great colors though. One color I wish they’d put in a single is Paradox though. Freelove and Fireball don’t even compare to that color! They look washed out on me compared to Paradox.
I love the look you came up with. Just gorgeous. C-Note and Blitz have my attention.
Thank you, Aline!
C-Note and Blitz are my favourites as well from the new shades.
I wish that Junkie was made permanent as it was also my favourite from the original Vice palette with Blitz.
Thank you!
Teal, purple UD, omg! Never saw a more beautiful look, seriously. Virtually every one of these singles is from a Vice palette, so might not be as atttractive to longtime UD collectors. Very nice, though.
Thank you, KJH! It’s nice to see them bring shades into the permanent line, though!
It will be if it’s a shade you’ve used up! I’ve been praying they would release Blitz as a single for years! Now if only they’d revive Honey and the other deluxe eyeshadows.
I really like all of these, except that 1985 would not look especially well on me, but have good dupes (MUFE or Viseart) for all of them except Smokeout!
So glad you have good dupes for all but one!
I may get Smokeout. It’s a great shade!
Definitely considering Smokeout. I recently realized I don’t really have a deep dark gray to smoke out (lol) my eye looks and one with a purplish undertone would be perfect. I don’t normally buy in-package singles but in this case it might be quite handy.
I could see Smokeout being pretty versatile as a single since it should work with just about any look to darken it!
That shade is really pretty and it would definitely be useful!
Christine, knowing there can sometimes be a marked difference between one release of a shadow and a repromote or how it was in a palette, would you say Smokeout is the same as a single as it was in the Vice 2 palette (I think it was Vice 2, though it could have been #1…I need to go and check!). I love how this shadow looks (love C-Note and Blitz also) but if it’s no better than the one in the palette, this is one I can skip.
Hey Mariella!
I mentioned in the review that Smokeout is cooler and darker as a single than the one I have in a palette! And it was Vice 2 that it was in 🙂 http://www.temptalia.com/urban-decay-vice-2-eyeshadow-palette-review-photos-swatches-part-1/
Oops – I missed that! I was in such a frenzy, seeing these products, that I skipped right over your mention of the earlier one. I may have “no choice” but to get this in addition to the others I’m craving.
Christine, I have Smokeout in a Sephora 500 point reward mini palette (4 shades plus Smokeout eyeliner). Similar enough that I don’t need to get the single, or significantly different?
Sorry, I don’t have that one so I really have no idea how it compares!
Smokeout is very cool! I imagine it’s perfect for exactly that, smoking out liner. Plus, not a ton of dupes! I’ll definitely pick that one up.
It’s very rich!
Such great colors!
Glad you liked them!
Blown away!!! These are swoon worthy both in shade and quality! While I do already have Blitz and Smokeout, this particular version of Smokeout looks utterly amazing with that slight purplish undertone. C-Note, Vice, Thunderbird and Blonde all may be coming home to this Mama! Possilby Smokeout, too…
Your eye look is stunning. These all look quite nice. I know I have a couple of dupes but overall I like these a lot and will pick up several of them. When I first saw C-Note in the pan I thought it was going to be another Lounge, Blue Brown situation and I have plenty of those but it is not and it is really stunning.
I was just checking for these at Sephora. They do have C Note and Thunderbird (and Blonde) but no Smokeout and they’ve got 1985 classified as “Matte”. I sure hope they get Blitz in the next week or so. They never got 24Kt Stilletos, which was one of the Buxom shadows I really wanted to buy, so I don’t even have that as a dupe. I might pick up C Note this week (though looking at the dupes, I have far too many of them but that doesn’t always stop me) and perhaps Thunderbird as well. Is it any surprise that my e/s glut overwhelms me???
Some of them are exclusive to UD’s website (noted at the end of each shade’s review, if it is exclusive), though!
As soon as I saw 1985, I knew I had to have it! Ordered it yesterday with 20% off at Ulta. Love the color, and the year 1985 brings back quite a few memories of brightly colored lipstick and clothes 😉
These are so gorgeous. I love the teal and purple eye look you did.
Such nice shadows! I really like Thunderbird.
Thunderbird, blonde, and blitz are my favourites ?. I love thunderbird the most!! It would look smashing with my brown eyes too!
Hi Christine,
How do you think 1985 and C-note compare to the same shades in the Vice 4 palette? Thanks!
They didn’t seem different to me in terms of color!
Gorgeous shades and C Note is an absolute winner for me. Beautiful eye look Christine.
Hi Christine! Did you happen to pick up Shellshock as well? I saw that they also added Frostbite and Chains to the permanent line but I think those were released as part of the Vintage XX collection so you already reviewed them – but Shellshock appears to be new!
Also forgot to ask – I own the Vice 4 palette and was wondering how the single versions of C-Note & 1985 compare to the ones in the Vice 4? I want to try to avoid buying things I already have if they aren’t markedly different in quality! Thank you as always 🙂
Smokeout is just gorgeous! Thunderbird is also tempting me. I might have to keep an eye out for these!
Yay! Finally not another batch of mattes!!
All of them are really quite good. Some of them made it to my wishlist. I” on a low-buy, so I’ll see if I get more than one, and then it’ll be hard to decide. 1985 is lovely, Smokeout would get a lot of use, and I also added Thunderbird to the list.
Interesting and beautiful look, Christine. I love how you manage to incooperate so many vivid colours in one gorgeous look.
Smokeout is really special. I’ll have to consider it when I have a better idea of finances.
