Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion$15.00We require that a product deliver high "wow" factor to add another step to beauty routines -- and we're usually underwhelmed by primers. So we skeptically smoothed a dab of Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, a translucent shadow primer, onto just one lid, then applied shadow for several days. Surprise: Richer pigment on t...More

Urban Decay Good Karma Powder Brush$35.00When I think of Urban Decay, I don't think of brushes. So the fact that this fat, fluffy brush is one of the best I've used came as a shock. Animal advocates will love the super-soft, man-made Taklon fibers, also used in fine artist brushes. Some may dislike the odd white fiber tips and the steep price. But this tool applie...More

Urban Decay Baked Bronzer$24.00The name of Urban Decay's Baked Bronzer fits on many levels. One, the pressed powder is literally baked in an oven. Two, a few swipes with a powder brush makes you look as if you've been baking in the sun. And three, the chocolate smell is reminiscent of baking brownies (yum). Undeniably cute, the product also performs well...More

Urban Decay Deluxe Eyeshadow$17.00Made for the daring, most of the 12 Urban Decay Deluxe Eye Shadow powders are intense and fluorescent -- anything but subtle. Applied sparingly they take on an almost-pastel hue. When used as liner, they're somewhat discreet; but when used as intended, they look dramatic. The high-quality shadow feels soft and won't crease ...More

Urban decay Liquid Eye Liner Vintage$14.00Bored by your basic black cat eye? Branch out into the eight funky colors of Urban Decay Liquid Eye Liner Vintage to get long-lasting wear delivered by a versatile, quality brush.

Urban Decay Surreal Skin Liquid Foundation$24.00Just a few drops on a sponge delivers medium coverage from this oil-free, lightweight foundation. Build up a second coat of the quick-drying liquid to camouflage problem areas. You'll only need minor touch-ups to stay fresh-faced all day. The genie-in-a-bottle packaging? In a word, adorable. But it takes practice to squeeze...More

Urban Decay XXX Shine Gloss$16.00Is that name "extra, extra, extra shiny" or, um, porn star-y? Both exist in the vast 12-shade menu. We're gaga over its insanely long wear, beating Stila and Smashbox in our trials, but we subtracted points for its goop-prone round tip, the less-than-sturdy tube, and sticky texture. (My husband wipes his cheek and...More

Urban Decay Skyscraper Mascara$17.00The long silver wand supposedly builds a skyline of lashes in a few strokes. Three levels -- a flattened top, bristled side and corkscrew end -- give equal coverage to varying lash lengths. But the feather-soft formula does a better job defining hairs at ground level -- not hitting penthouse heights. The label claims the sh...More

Urban Decay Lip Envy$17Long-lasting and semi-permanent, these quick-setting stains use moisturizing vitamins and fruit extracts to keep the claimed semi-matte finish from feeling dry. While the colored tints -- pink Envious and deep berry Greedy -- might be too bright for most skin tones, the appropriately named Nude has a subtle finish. The thin...More

Urban Decay Clean & Sober$18Message to Urban Decay: Please include instructions on the bottle so we know this is an oil-free gel cleanser, not really a makeup remover. It took a trip to the Sephora Web site to understand why the product bubbled when swiped onto my eyes. When used correctly, it removed makeup better than average cleansers, but not as w...More
