Urban Decay Vice LTD Eyeshadow Palette
Urban Decay Vice LTD Eyeshadow Palette ($58.00 for 0.60 oz.) is a mix of neutrals with a few pops of color, but the contents aren’t nearly as bright as the exterior packaging, which is a vibrant chartreuse. The packaging is very much the same as Vice3. I thought the formula felt different in Vice LTD compared to Vice3 but also compared to Urban Decay’s formula (since reformulation) in general. The eyeshadows felt a bit firmer in their pans (not in a bad way), less powdery in general. The more colorful shades seemed weaker in color payoff, and I didn’t have as much luck with some shades applying to bare skin as I have in the past with the brand’s formula, so wear time was shorter on average. I liked it more than Vice3, though, by a bit. Disco, Heat, Floss, Hoodoo, and Roadstripe are shades new-to-me (I believe Roadstripe existed many, many moons ago), while the other shades have been released in various palettes over the years (noted by the shade itself).
It will be re-releasing exclusively on ULTA on January 25th.
Nameless is described as a “medium taupe satin.” It’s a golden brown with a hint of gray on top with a frosted sheen. It had excellent color payoff with a soft, smooth consistency that was easy to blend and work with. It wore well for eight hours on me. This shade was in the Shattered palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Backdoor is described as a “cool dark brown matte. It’s a dark, charcoal brown with cool, gray undertones and a matte finish. It had decent color payoff with a soft but thin consistency, which could have blended more readily. It wore well for eight hours on me. This shade was in the Smoked palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Deeper is described as a “medium metallic bronze.” It’s a rich, bronzy brown with warm, yellow undertones and a frost finish. It had great pigmentation that went on easily and blended well, which lasted for eight hours on me. It was in the 15th Anniversary palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Disco is described as a “pale metallic gold with iridescent glitter.” It’s a slightly muted, light-medium gold with warm undertones and silver micro-glitter. The glitter doesn’t adhere with the base color, so most of it gets lost or trapped in a brush, rather than applied. What few glittery bits make it to the lid do fall off later (I didn’t see any glitter by the end of the day). The base color lasted for eight hours. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Heat is described as a “bright metallic copper.” It’s a bright, gold-shimmered copper with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. The color payoff was excellent, while the texture was fairly soft and smooth. It lasted for seven and a half hours before fading. Urban Decay did have a Heat eyeshadow in their deluxe range once upon a time, but it was a red-based shade, so this is different. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Crystal is described as a “icy metallic blue shimmer.” It’s a silvery, light-medium silvery-blue with a frosted finish. It had decent to good pigmentation, but the texture was drier and thinner, which made it somewhat powdery and prone to fading on the lid after seven hours of wear. It was in Book of Shadows Vol. 4. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Goddess is described as a “deep smoky blue with micro-glitter.” It’s a slightly brightened, navy blue with fine blue shimmer and larger micro-glitter. It was sheer, patchy, and a generally difficult eyeshadow to use in practice, as it was harder to blend or achieve decent payoff on the skin. It was faded after six hours. It was previously available in their original eyeshadow range but didn’t make the cut when they reformulated. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Vaporize is described as a “medium metallic gray-taupe.” It’s a medium-dark taupe brown with subtle, warm undertones and a metallic finish with micro-glitter. The glitter doesn’t bind with the eyeshadow, so it is mostly metallic, and the underlying color was nicely pigmented. The texture was a little dry, but it seemed improved from when it was in the Anarchy palette. It wore well for seven hours on me. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Floss is described as a “deep metallic emerald with micro-glitter.” It’s a very rich, intense emerald green with a blackened-brown base and a metallic finish and silver micro-glitter. I wanted to fall in love with this one, but the texture was so soft that it was almost crumbly and a little dry to work with. It lasted for seven and a half hours. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Perversion is described as a “soft black matte.” It’s a softened, medium black with a mostly matte finish. The texture was thin, a little dry, but fairly blendable on the skin. It had decent to good pigmentation, though it was buildable. The color wore well for seven and a half hours. It was in the Book of Shadows Vol. 3. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Provocateur is described as a “icy metallic pink with micro-glitter.” It’s a muted, pink with warm undertones and coppery-pink micro-glitter. It was semi-sheer with a lot of glittery bits, which made it harder to work with. This shade really needs an adhesive base to work decently. The underlying color lasted for seven and a half hours, but there was some fall out. It was in the Vice palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Hoodoo is described as a “medium metallic violet with pink shift.” It’s a muted, medium purple with cool undertones and a pearly sheen. It had so-so color payoff that seemed to be hurt by the drier, slightly powdery consistency of the shadow itself. This shade lasted for six and a half hours on me. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Freakshow is described as a “bright purple satin.” It’s a brightened, medium-dark purple with cool undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good pigmentation with a soft, fairly blendable texture that wore well for seven and a half hours. It was previously available in the deluxe eyeshadow formula but was not included in the reformulated eyeshadow range. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Junkshow is described as a “bright pink satin.” it’s a vibrant, fuchsia-pink with cool undertones and iridescent micro-shimmer. It was a thinner, somewhat powdery shade that had signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear. It was in the 15th Anniversary palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Blitz is described as a “bright metallic gold.” It’s a bright, metallic gold with warm, yellow undertones. It had excellent color payoff with a really smooth, blendable consistency (one of the best shades in the palette). This shade wore well for eight hours on me. It was in the Vice palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Chase is described as a “soft metallic bronze.” It’s a golden bronze with warm undertones and a very metallic finish. This shade had great pigmentation with a soft, smooth texture that I had no issues using on bare skin. It wore well for eight hours before fading. This is part of the permanent range. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Last Sin is described as a “pale champagne shimmer.” It’s a peachy beige with a hint of pink and a frosted finish. It was drier and more crumbly, which made it harder to apply (lots of fall out during application). On me, the color lasted for seven hours before fading. This shade was also in Vice3. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Roadstripe is described as a “iridescent white with blue-violet shift.” It’s a brightened, cool-toned white with an iridescent blue sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a lightly powdery consistency. I had to really layer and pack it on to get the intensity on bare skin. It also showed signs of fading after six and a half hours of wear. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Anonymous is described as a “pale peachy cream matte.” It’s a light beige with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had great color payoff with a very silky, soft texture that made it easy to apply to the skin. This sahde wore well for seven and a half hours. It was in the Vice palette. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Laced is described as a “soft pink-nude matte.” It’s a muted, light-medium pink with a hint of gray and a matte finish. It had good pigmentation that was blendable, smooth, and silky. The color showed signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear. This is part of the permanent range. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

This looked so promising, but at that price point, I want the palette to at least be in the A range.
I hear ya 🙂
Vaporize and Hoodoo are free to make their way into singles, but I’ll pass on everything else. Also, that is a hideous amount of chartreuse.
Hopefully if they made it a permanent shade, it would perform better.
Looks really nice! A solid B, not bad. And oh Christine, your last eye look is so pretty! Like a rainbow! Made of My Little Ponies! And skittles!
Haha! Thank you 🙂
oh Goddess why must you always be an epic fail! I was hoping the new UD formula would improve it… maybe it’s the pigment they use rather then the base. lol
LOL! Right?? I was like, “Was Goddess that bad?” And then it really was. (And still is!)
It was sadly the very first eyeshadow single I bought from UD as well. I made it work wet or with a eyeshadow transformer they sold, but at $18CAN a decade ago I was not pleased becasue it would have cost more to return it they the product value. lol
They should rename Goddess junkshow, because they haven’t figured out how to make it not awful. I have it from previous palettes and its nearly useless.
I was so surprised that it was STILL that bad.
I agree! Surely by now UD should have figured out how to make a decent navy blue – I mean MUFE can do it, so can UD.
I love the packaging! Unfortunately, I’m not thrilled about the eyeshadows. I already own Vice 1 so some of these shadows are redundant and the rest just aren’t that interesting. However I’m glad they’re re-releasing it for those who really wanted it.
By the way Christine, are you planning on reviewing the new UD Naked liquid concealer? I haven’t seen very many reviews on it other than Muse’s. While I love the Muse, I always like to read a few reviews before making a final decision.
Sorry, I’m not sure yet!
Thanks for the reply! I’ll just have to patiently wait for it to hit stores so I can see it in person then.
Thank you so much for the review! I wish Goddess and Provocateur performed slightly better – they look like such great colors! I’ve missed this palette twice already, hopefully the third time is the charm 🙂
Fingers crossed for ya, Jess!
I was coveting this -hard- but I’m kind of glad I missed out when it was on Sephora for all of 5 minutes. I don’t have access to Ulta & they don’t ship to Canada anyway, but I’ll pass. My collection has some dupes, and for the shades I’m liking from this palette that I don’t have, well some of the dupes have better ratings anyway (like Ardency Inn or MUFE) so I’ll invest in those! 😀
Yep, my first thought when I heard about ULTA was about Canadians 🙁
Seems to be a bit of mix & match with shades from other palettes, indeed. It didn’t fully caught my attention, but it has some interesting shades. Heat and Chase look very nice, for example!
Yep! It is very much a collection of past favorites, I would say. Well, “favorites” for someone 😉
Will this be online only? Or will they release it in store as well?
It is in-stores and online.
I’ll be passing on this one for sure. Too many shades I wouldn’t use and those I like didn’t get the best ratings.
Bummer!
I refuse to fall for this but I really love all the colors (rare for me with a big palette). The neutrals just really appeal to me and the colorful ones are colors id actually use. Hearing some of the issues, I’ll pass. But I might like a single of Laced.
Thankfully you can get a single of that one 😀
I have the single of Laced and I love it!
Definitely a pass for me, seeing as I have at least 10 of the colors spread across different UD palettes! I recognized a few of the colors, but until you listed which was in which palette I didn’t realize how many I already owned haha!
If you’re a long-time collector, you probably have most of them!
I don’t know what happened with Goddess, but the other shades look really nice ! I already have one of the Naked palettes and the Too Face Sugar & Spice palette, so I won’t be indulging, but so glad to see a palette with some colors and not all neutrals. I love the last eye look you did !
Goddess is just a sad shade, now and originally 🙁
Oops, I meant the Too Faced Everything Nice palette
I’m a bit disappointed that the “LTD” palette includes so many repromotes. I already have over half of these shades! The new ones aren’t doing enough for me to want to buy it. Sigh.
Although, if you are just getting into make up and UD, this would be awesome.
Pass for me. My wallet is happy 😀
Yay for your wallet 🙂
It’s a nice palette but, I’ll be passing on it!
Onto the next!
There are far too many repeats for me to consider this. I have vice 1 and 3 and naked 1 and 2 as well as many other urban palettes. This isn’t very new especially for all of the insanity that has surrounded this palette.
Perhaps there are a lot of people who wish they had gotten Vice 1 or BoS palettes 🙂
I think Roadstripe was a part of UD’s original eye shadow collection (or if it wasn’t it came soon after). That eye shadow was actually my first UD purchase ever, maybe back in ’98 or so. I think it’d be neat for them to revisit their old stuff, though I suppose they still have some of their original colors like Smog, Mildew and Roach as a part of their permanent line up.
I remember hearing Roadstripe before, and a google search seems to confirm, but it is good to hear it from someone who did buy it!!
Why is it that the one shade I’m always interested in is the worst performer whenever a new palette is released? I’m cursed for liking blurples. All your looks are beautiful, Christine.
LOL! You & me both, Aline.
Freakshow was also in their Fun Palette (the blue octopus one).
Yep!
Well boooo!!! Of course all the warm, coppery gold shades, which I would barely use, do well, & the cool shades are the duds!! Going through the shades that I would use & don’t already have, this would be a C grade palette for me. 🙁
🙁
Passing on this one. I have many of the colors. Besides, it is .03 oz. i like floss and we all need to floss.. Lucky, they open an Ulta not too far from me.
I wish Floss was brighter on the lid! It looks really cool in the palette. Maybe over a white base.
I think I’m going to have to pass on this. I already have many of the shades and it just seems a little redundant. If the formulas were better I’d snap it up just for the sheer fact it is LE and I’m a bit of a collector. But I’ll hang onto my $60 until something better comes along.
I’m sure UD will release another palette sooner rather than later!
I’m still a bit mad that they didn’t put Vice 3 in this case (so it matched the other two better) and used the more different one for this LTD palette. Would’ve made more sense to me, personally.
This palette has a few of my favorite all time shades (Crystal, Junkshow, and Laced), so I’m happy to see some LE shades pop back, 1) I wish they’d just be made singles in case I run out and 2) I don’t think I have a reason to purchase this palette.
I always wonder just how much people have to clamor before UD makes a shade permanent…
Your eye looks are so beautiful, especially the bottom one.
I’m enjoying my Vice Ltd. quite a bit. Goddess works pretty well with a primer under it. For me, Provocateur is the tricky one. Lots of fallout. It can be made to work, but I don’t think they got the formula right for it. Junkshow is my favorite.
Thank you, Rachel! 🙂
Christine, do you think UD’s eyeshadow palettes are falling in quality lately? Or is it my imagination? It seems to me that for the past year or two a lot of their shadow palettes have rated sub-par or just slightly better in terms of formulation. I haven’t bought an UD palette since Naked 2, which kills me because I love this brand, but I can’t help wondering if I dodged some bullets since many shades seem to be lacking in one way or another (too dry, powdery, not enough pigment, etc).
I should think they would be above and beyond expectations considering how they reformulated all of their eyeshadows not too long ago? Not to mention the price. Hmmmm…
They are different, and it wasn’t until the release of Shadow Box that they felt noticeably different (Shadow Box was a massive departure to me, and Vice3 wasn’t as good as previous Vice palettes but not as bad as Shadow Box). I think this feels different from both of those, though, but UD has done better formulas overall.
Christine, are these all shadows that were LE in earlier Vice (and a few other) palettes? If so, this just isn’t a smart purchase for me since I’ve got 2 Vice palettes and the Mariposa and 15th Anniversary palettes and quite a few of these shades seem to have come from them. One Junkshow is far more than I need EVER, two would be madness but I don’t think I have Vaporize and it’s one I think I really want.
Hey Mariella,
I tried to note which palettes the shades were in, but the majority are from previous palettes – 5 are new, 2 are permanent, the rest are ones from previous releases!
I just took a look at my palettes and Chase is in the 15th Anniversary Palette. You might want to note that in the shade description. Sigh…the more I look at this palette and colours like Vaporize (which I don’t have) and Nameless, the more I feel I really “need” this one! Honestly, I shouldn’t be allowed out – I’m so hopelessly weak-willed.
I really hope I can snag this palette. I don’t have any of these shades yet, and I think they are gorgeous. I love your looks using this palette, Christine!!
Thank you, Liz! Good luck!
Love your rainbow-ish look the most!!! You blended it so well and the color stays bright and bold. Thanks for the inspiration and the un-biased review!
Aw, thanks Fuji!
I’m actually really excited for this. Despite the B rating, I can usually make UD eyeshadows work better than other ratings of different brands (Too Faced for example works poorly on me, usually). I was super upset when it sold out before I even woke up for school. The only thing is I was saving for the Nars palette with those Dual Intensity eyeshadows… For someone of the fairest skin, which do you think is better?
I prefer NARS’ palette – I think it is better quality, and both palettes should work on a variety of skin tones. But if you like brighter shades, NARS’ palette doesn’t have any of those!
Sadly there’s nothing here that tempts me to blow my budget.
Btw, am I the only one who thinks Backdoor is a little too well-named?
Haha!
Because I have all three vice palettes I’ll be skipping this one. Too many repeats.
Good call, Indira!
I was originally excited at mention of Heat in this palette, because I had and adored the original one from about ten years ago – it was a lovely terracotta red. The Heat in this is not very different from the Lucky in Vice3.
Meh. There are maybe four shades in this that I would want / don’t already have, either the actual UD shade from previous palettes or reasonable dupes thereof with better performance, by the sounds of it!
Love that last eye look, though, with the hot pink inner lid.
(Also, is it just me, or does it seem like Urban Decay – of all brands – is Doing It Wrong when they release a palette with packaging brighter than any of the eyeshadows???)
I have no idea why Heat in this palette is so, so far from the original!
Ha, the brightness of the palette reminds me of the fluro glosses Chanel does that look like fuchsia in the tube but are virtually clear on.
Thanks for the review Christine! Some of the colors from this palette look very common. If the price was a little bit lower, I could take the chance but as a whole, this palette is not “speaking” to me.
My pleasure, Wasifa 🙂
Too bad that it isn’t international again..
It’s a bummer 🙁
Yup, still can’t get this one, Ulta won’t ship to Canada. Even if I try to ship it to my myus.com address it still won’t take Canadian credit card.. Oh well unless I’m prepared to go for a drive across the border….
Still gotta say though that I’m loving the looks you created! Going to study the dupes list and hopefully recreate some of them!! Thank you for your inspiration!
Thank you, Karen!
Aw, that sucks!
The shades are really gorgeous and I think would suit a lot of people. BUT if you own Too Faced Pretty Rebel and either Vice 2 or 3 palette you would be pretty well covered. The sad part for me is that the one shade I always look to – the blue – goddess – is the worst performing shade. Just like Guerlain’s recent offering. Unfortunately there are no really new colours here.
By the way Christine I forgot to mention (recovering after the shock of seeing Goddess) that your eye looks were really beautiful. You are so talented!
You’re very kind! Thank you, Genevieve!
It’s hard to get a really good navy blue that isn’t really shimmery!
Was Provocateur also in the Anarchy Face Case? If I remember right it wasn’t any better there either. Lots of fall out. I really wanted this for Floss and Hoodoo, but it’s hard to justify this price point for two eyeshadows; especially when I already own Vice 2 and 3, and the Book of Shadows IV. Too many shades I already own for me to purchase this one.
I think it was! It’s been repeated a couple of times.
I like enough of the shades that if it goes on sale I’ll probably indulge. 🙂
Awesome! 🙂
Is roadstripe similar to the aura shade in the glinda palette by urban decay? or how similar is it?
Aura has a pink iridescent sheen 🙂
Why won’t they make road stripe permanent? I want it bad but am not buying the LTD palette for this one color… It looks like the blue side of aura but it’s so hard to tell. I love the aura duo for inner corners and highlights. Please UD make something like this permanent but in your re- formula.
i love a handful of these shades, but I already own several from other palettes. And the shades I love are neutrals, so if I could probably dupe them. Money saved, though, right?
Silver lining 😀
I’m really disappointed how Urban Decay has turned its back on its daring, fun side and become just another expensive makeup brand. I could always trust them for bolder looks and amazing pigmentation, and I was willing to pay a higher price for those things, but for the last few years they’ve been focusing so hard on Naked (boring!), putting out palettes that are full of neutrals (boring!), and playing up the plain black Perversion line (boooooring!) and that’s not what I look to UD to do. A few neutrals in a palette are great, but here…where’s the fun? Where’s the uniqueness? Where’s the stuff I can’t get from the drugstore for cheaper? Pass! Bring back the days when they did blue glitter lipstick in cases that looked like bullets…
Hopefully they’ll do something fun for summer!
The swatches looks great except 2-3 shades but overall I quite liked this palette.. 🙂 🙂 The color mix is lovely 🙂 🙂 ..
Loved the way you used that bright pink , purple and gold in the last look.. just beautiful <3
Thank you, Poonam!
If they could fix up Hoodoo, I’d totally buy it as a single.
Overall though, I’m disappointed with this seeming trend of recent UD palettes not being quite on par with the quality the brand is known for 🙁
Me too, Carrie! You used to be able to count on UD palettes to be pretty good across the board, but now it’s quite mixed!
Big fat no for me… Bonus that I don’t even like ulta!
Phew!
I think this one is going to be a pass for me, too many of the shades are repeats that I just can’t justify adding it to my collection. Which is a shame though, I was pretty excited about it.
I could see myself using this for bold and soft looks.
*taps foot, raises eyebrow*
…
*Under the answer ‘Goddess’, writes ‘See me’ on UD’s exam script*
OT: There are several shades I like in this palette, for varying reasons (Floss and Anonymous being examples), but the ones that should hit it for me (the blues and purples) fall terribly flat. Hoodoo could have been gorgeous…
This is kind of disappointed with this… Limited edition releases can be so exciting when most of the shades are really good but there seem to be a lot of misses in this palette. What is up with Goddess?! The idea of it is so pretty!
This doesnt appeal to me at all. I have been distancing myself from UD, there are so many other better eyeshadows out there.
OH MY GAWD. I know UD has had silly/naughty names forever, but MAKING “BACKDOOR” A DARK POO-BROWN… I can’t… I don’t even know if I could use it without thinking about what it looks like! LOL Or at least laughing.
Wow, Roadstripe is a really cool color! Wish it was a bit more pigmented. I’m glad they’ve brought this palette back for those who wanted to buy it and missed it on that strange pre-release.
I got this when it first came out at Sephora (remember for like 15 minutes?). I ended up returning it. The quality just was not as nice as the others, and the color selections seem so blah and thrown together without forethought. I loved the case, but the contents, not so much. *shrugs*
Christine, thanks so much for this announcement! I finally got my Vice Ltd pallette from Ulta last night. I stayed up for the relaunch at the UD website back in Dec. 4 and wasn’t able to get one. I gave up on the thought of ever owning one but would check periodically for news of re-release. Thanks so much again!
My fave color is Crystal. I had most of the colors from the other palettes. How different is the new formula from the old version, specifically on the color pay-off/texture for Crystal?
Thanks Christine!
Honestly I’ve been eyeing this palette online and haven’t been impressed but I happened to have a 20 off at Ulta which applied to everything but that palette of course. Anyways, I swatched it in person and it’s absolutely stunning. It looks so much better in person than online.
Is it wrong that I would rather see roadstripe as a highlighter for the face? I dusted it all over my face just for fun and that blue/violet was amazing when it caught the light. It gave an almost supernatural glow.
