GOLDEN GIRLS
Get the glow without the grease.
We first spotted an Urban Decay compact on Glee, and started cracking up - since when did Lea Michele's perky teacher's pet use an eyeshadow called "snatch"?!
After trying their latest product, however, we kind of understand: If Rachel Berry and her jaggedly earnest classmates want to shine onstage without looking like glitter-covered rave babies, Urban Decay's new stuff is a good way to go.
Called "Urbanglow Cream Highlight," the compact has a smooth gel inside that you can use to bring out your cheekbones, gloss your eyelids, or even shine your lips. It comes in four neutrals - some darker, some rosier, and one that's vampire-pale - and contains a crushed iridescent powder that adds some moon glow to your skin.
We like the healthy shine it gave to our cheeks, and especially the smooth feel, which wasn't too sticky or too slide-y. And since Urban Decay's stuff is never tested on animals and always paraben-free, it's good for the environment - something Rachel and her goody-two-shoes attitude would certainly sing about.
