I ordered the Glinda palette from UD even though I would've liked the Sephora points. I guess I was worried it would sell out or something, lol. I've only used it twice since I bought it but I plan to use it more. Everytime I buy a new eyeshadow or palette it has it's "honeymoon period" where I use it nonstop for a few days, then I go straight back to my Naked palette ... I'm addicted to my Naked palette, lol.

But yeah, I do really like it. I just need to use it more.

 
Ordered my Theoroda palette with the UD F&F sale so I'm super excited for it to get here...FRIDAYYY....

 
I have 6-7 UD pallets so was planning to skip on both of these, but since I don't have a build your own pallet yet I thought I may as well get one.  I ordered the Theodora pallet since I usually prefer to wear more neutral shades, but after looking at the swatches of the Glinda pallet on here it's probably just a matter of time before I get that one too.  

The only thing I am disappointed about in terms of the Theodora pallet is that the eye liner is in the color Zero, UD seems to insist on including this pencil in the majority of kits, I must have at least 10 of them!

Yeah I was the same way - but vice versa. I got Glinda and was in love. But I saw the Theodora swatches and ended up getting that one too. 

They probably keep putting Zero eye pencil in the sets because everyone can wear it. I think the Perversion pencil could have been a good choice. Personally, the Perversion pencil makes my eyes really irritated when I use it on my waterline - it's the only 24/7 pencil that does that. But yeah, any pencil other than Zero and Perversion would be nice.

exactly >.< i started to give 'em away to family and friends!

 
I would've been cool if they had a LE pencil for each palette, like an exclusive green and purple. Not that I needed to be swayed to buy both with an exclusive color though.

Or re-include a color that was previously only a LE: Midnight Cowboy, Asphyxia, LSD, Mushroom, Whiskey, Covet - there's a few to choose from that people (like me) hoard!  I'm sure most people have a "boring" black kohl liner already.

 
woo hoo husband-to-be got both as valentines day gift for me.  I told him this is really good don't waste money on flower.

I also got the Glinda palette from the boyfriend for Valentine's Day gift. I'm so pleased ... I've been dying to get my hands on Glinda. I like the lip pencil and the green shades with Theodora, but Glinda is overall more diverse (and wearable) for me. There's too much brown in Theodora - I already have the Naked 2 palette, and I don't even often wear just neutrals. 

A++, Urban Decay. 

 
Haha I tell mine the same thing.. "DONT WASTE MONEY ON FLOWERS! Buy makeup, shoes, or clothes!"

Yeah! They could have even given them LE names like Jealous and Tornado (after the eyeshadows).

I completely agree; of course I ended up buying the pallet anyway, but a different eye pencil with a name that matched the theme of the pallet would have been fun and exciting.  A golden color named Yellow Brick Road, or an olive green color named Wicked, I mean the opportunities were endless here.  However, it's still a great pallet and lots of us ran out to buy it regardless of the color of the eyeliner so this never would have been a deal breaker, I just hope that one day UD starts to mix up the colors of the eyeliners they put in sets.

Your proposed Wicked color would have been perfect in the Theodora palette.  I'm sure we're all swimming in black eyeliners and anything related to The Wizard of Oz has so many possibilities...  *sighs*  Oh well.  We can still dream.

Right?!? Stash or the LE shade in Smog would have been perfect for that palette.

 
I saw these in person the first time today at sephora and ughhhh I want them both so bad. This makeout is painful, but I have sooo many eye shadows (and so many of those are urban decay), I can't justify it. SO SAD.

 
I gave in and got Glinda, when I saw the 20% off I had to do it. Kinda disappointed shipping was $8.00.. with tax and shipping everything I saved went back into the price

. I got the Glinda because I have both Naked 1 and 2 and thought those colors were more neutrals and I just didn't think I needed any more neutral UD shadows. I am starting to really love the UD eyeshadows and liners. They are sending a sample of their BB cream and I'm excited to try it with the lip color it comes with. I hope the BB cream matches my skin tone.

Their BB Cream is Spectrum, so it's supposed to match all skin tones! It did match mine :)
