I don't own any of the other Vice palettes so I can't compare them, but I love the packaging and the color range in this one!
The majority of these shades are very pigmented and buttery smooth, but some colors look best over a primer and 2 of them have a gritty and crumbly formula.
If you dislike glitters, please note that this palette only contain 11 shades that have a matte or shimmery finish. 2 shades have a very sparkly finish with no glitters, which means that the 7 other colors contain glitters. That being said, only 2 of these glittery eyeshadows (Low and Crowbar) are very chunky and loaded with glitters. You will need to apply these 2 eyeshadows with your fingers and over a good primer.
Bones is a light shimmery grey with a subtle pinky beige sheen. Grip is a light grey with silver micro glitters. Deadbeat is a dark grey with silver micro glitters. Beat Down is a indigo with a subtle purple undertone, the finish is shimmery but not glittery. (Try Beat Down on top of 1985, you will thank me later!) Pandemonium is a purple with a very sparkly finish and micro glitters.
Framed is a light beige with a matte finish. Fast-Ball is a shimmery peach with a pink sheen. 1985 is a bright magenta with a soft shimmery finish. Underhand is a plum with warm undertones and a shimmery finish. Harlot is a light mauve with a shimmery finish.
Discreet is a very light lavender with a matte finish. (I like to use this one to tone down the orangey undertones in Bitter!) Grasshopper is a bright green with a sparkly finish. C-Note is a greyish blue with warm undertones and a sparkly finish. Arctic is a bright shimmery turquoise with silver micro glitters. Robbery is a medium taupe with an olive-grey sheen, the finish is frosty.
Bitter is an orangey brown with a matte finish. Flame is a golden peachy pink with a very sparkly finish. Low is a glittery grey brown, the formula is very chunky. Crowbar is an greenish brown with a generous amount of glitters, the formula is chunky. Delete is a medium brown with a satin finish. (Delete is pretty much matte though)
This palette contain $235 CAD worth of eyeshadow, so even if you don't like a few shades I think it's still a great value! You can only buy 3 full-sized Urban Decay eyeshadows for the same amount of money, and here you get 20 different shades to play with! Each eyeshadow is 0.8g and a full-size UD eyeshadow is 1.5g, basically you get 14 extra shades for the same price. Please note that it comes with a makeup pouch and a double-ended shadow/crease brush too!
The Urban Decay Vice 4 Eyeshadow Palette retail for $70 CAD for 16g (20 x 0.8g).
(I received this product in order to evaluate it and give my opinion, but rest assured that my comments are always honest and impartial.)
Stunning shades! Robbery and Harlot are my faves!
