I've honestly been dying to play with the Vice 3 again, so here it is! Honestly, the pigmentation of the Vice 3 is a bit mild for my tastes, but it's an absolutely phenomenal palette for adding glamour to a look, and I think for most people it probably has all the pigmentation they need. It's really versatile and the colors apply smoothly and blend well. I'm very happy that I bought it.  Products Used:  Smashbox 24 Hour Photo Finish Shadow Primer Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil in Iced Mocha, Milk Urban Decay Vice 3 palette: Undone, Brokedown, Dragon e.l.f.

It snowed today - hard. So I asked my friend whether I ought to do a cold wintery eye or a hot fiery one. She picked fire, saying it would help her to feel warm.
