Growing up, I always wanted to be a Disney princess. When I would go to Disneyland with my family, I would always stare in awe as the beautiful princesses would stream down Main Street in the parade. Call me immature but thirteen years later that desire still lingers.
So you can imagine that as a product geek, when I heard two of my favorite cosmetic brands, OPI and Urban Decay, were coming out with Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland-inspired lines, I turned into that giddy six-year old again.
Urban Decay’s Alice in Wonderland Book of Shadows
Urban Decay’s Alice in Wonderland Book of Shadows
Urban Decay’s Book of Shadows is one of their most popular products. In fact many makeup brands include Tarte and Smashbox have produced similar products in hopes of having equal success. I have the original one and I use it for pretty much everything.
But leave it up to the funky creators of Urban Decay to put their twist on a classic, which they did recently when they released a special Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland edition on January 15th. With Alice in Wonderland inspired names, this palette will instantly bring some creativity to your look. It contains a wide selection of funky, vibrant colors that will instantly give any look a pop of color. When you first open the palette, you are instantly taken into an Alice in Wonderland fantasy world. The movie inspired popup book reminds of me of those cute popup jewelry boxes I had when I was a little girl.
If you have a fetish for fantasy, you will love this palette. You can transform yourself into a Disneyland princess but with an Urban Decay edge.

Personal Inspiration
I drew my own personal inspiration from some of the promotional pictures from the film (and the amazing trailer). For Johnny Depp’s Mad Hatter character, I instantly thought of Covergirl’s Tropical Fusion Eyeshadow Quad. Although the colors may be a bit frightening for some people, the pigmentation is not that heavy so it will show up more sheer. I love Covergirl for funky party looks because I can buy an eyeshadow without having to worry about wasting too much money on something I may only use once.
Also, this gorgeous picture of Anne Hathaway as the White Queen could instantly have women running to beauty stores for tubes of red lipstick. To try to achieve her seductive, enchanting look, try Maybelline’s ColorSensational Lipstick in Red Revival. Statement lips are definitely a trend on the runways this season. I love this trend because it’s a great way to look classically glamorous and requires little makeup aside from the lipstick. When you wear a statement lip color like this one, always make sure your eye makeup is light. I’d pair this lipstick with a bit of shimmery eye shadow and a couple swipes of mascara.
