Smokey eyes are probably the most popular way to pimp your eyelids. There are so many ways to smoke out your eye -- and not look like a panda in the process. Insert the NYX Winter in Moscow Smokey Look palette ($19.50); a handbook sized folding palette with a mirror, 2 blushes and 5 lip colors on one side, and 14 eyeshadows and applicators on the other side. I received this item to review from my good friend in lipstick, Linda. She asked that I review it so here we go :)

Just a heads up -- the elusive, gorgeous and hard-to-find Naked Palette by Urban Decay is now available at ULTA Beauty
! I ordered mine, so if you keep missing out at Sephora or Urban Decay's own website, scurry on over to ULTA and pick one of these babies up :) I did call my nearest Ulta to see if they had these in stock at the store, but they didn't. So before you assume they're at the actual Ulta store, call first to check.

(updated 8/21/10 w/ new swatches!) When my parents and I pulled up into their driveway today, my mom said "There's a package on the doorstep" and I just knew it was mine. I walked up to it, saw the HAUTELOOK tape wrapped around the small brown box and literally hit a Mariah Carey note of excitement. I knew exactly what it was! I grabbed my dog, tossed my box in the passenger seat and sped home to open my little box of joy in the form of Rock & Republic blushes ($40 each). I didn't order these directly from the Rock & Republic website...instead I got them half price on Hautelook! *poplocks with passion and conviction*

In case you didn't know, Urban Decay (in light of the recession) is having their Friends & Family sale and you get to save a cool 30% off your entire order. Use code "1SFNF" from April 6th thru April 19th. I picked up a few things, of course. But let me just say, I absolutely LOVE Urban Decay, overall. I think they're a very strong brand. Their eyeshadow's are known for their pigmentation and vibrancy, and they've got great packaging. They have some of the most unique packaging I've seen as far as makeup goes, and as a designer totally appreciate it. This sale came out of nowhere for me, so I didn't get as much as I would've had I known it was coming. I could've been irresponsible and spent money on this sale instead of paying my rent...but looking like a fabulous hobo isn't exactly a goal of mine.
