The gothic whimsy of the upcoming Alice in Wonderland movie is inspiring both audiences and brands alike.
It has now been confirmed that Urban Decay’s Alice in Wonderland palette will be released on the 22nd of February online in the UK at Debenhams.com, followed by an instore release on the 28th February. It has also been confirmed that the UK price of the palette will be £28.
Interesting news hot from The States is that after much speculation, Urban Decay have thankfully released a name check for the renamed Alice-inspired shades. So keep reading to see how many colours may be duplicates in your collection.

Oraculum – Baked
Queen – Last Call

Mushroom – Mushroom
Midnight Tea Party – Midnight Cowboy Rides Again (dear god..)
Vorpal – S&M
Absolem – Homegrown
Drink Me. Eat Me – Sin

Have I missed any out? Probably…
Hopefully this is useful to you lovely lot, it means that this palette promises me 7 brand new shades to add to my collection.
I’m not too disappointed with that and that adorable packaging is cute enough that I would have probably talked myself into owning this purely as a “collector’s piece” anyway (or at least until Mr. L snatched the debit card out of my hand).
What say you?
How many of those shades do you already own?
I own no Urban Decay eyeshadows at all and I think I might have to send the Ma to Debenhams in my godforsaken hometown to pick one up for me (don’t fancy the fight on Oxford Street, whereas Ma is always up for a fight.)
WANT this.
I already have the Ammo palette and BoS2 but am contemplating selling the Ammo palette so I can purchase this without feeling too guilty.
That said though, the Ammo palette is very handy for travelling so maybe I do actually need both. Maybe. :/
Very helpful post lovely.x
ugh.. i dont ned it but i need it! I know ill get it just on the alice theme!!
The only UD palette I already own is Get Baked so if I bought this most of them would be new SHADOWS to my collection, if not new shades. I’m still trying to save money for the new Dior quints though, so I am going to try to see this in person before shelling out the money for it 🙂
It is lovely though! But I managed to talk myself out of Book of Shadows II even after buying it for a friend, so unless this is knock-me-off-my-feet amazing I think I’ll most likely be passing…
I think I am the only person in the entire Blogosphere (and Twitter) that doesn’t really give a monkeys about this palette! It just doesn’t excite me all that much, esp now I know they arent even new shades!
*ducks to avoid rotten tomatoes*
thanks for the color references!
I was 5 minutes too late and the last palette got sold out on the UD website 🙁 I’m all the way in Malaysia so I can’t get them in stores either! *cries*
i love the look of this palette, and i don’t own any UD palettes yet, so this one might just be the first!

@ Helen, I’m with you luv. I’ll be buying one to fling on Ebay though!
I can’t believe I missed the boat on this one in the U.S. I just saw what they are going for on eBay and I feel quite sick about it.
Omg, i have 11 of the 16 shadows!!!!!!!!!!!!! Still, it’s such a pretty palette!! 🙁
i have no urban decay, so im very eager to get my hands on one of these! are there a limited number of stock? xxxx
OMG I have been waiting for this to come since aggggggges! It’s so cruel, introducing the delicious palette ages before it comes out! I love Underland and Alice, personally. 🙂
I have 12 out of the 16 as I already own S&M. It’s gorgeous, but it’s a no from me.
I’ve not bought any UD for ages but all this talk about this palette is starting to reel me in 🙂
I have 11 of the shadows in other palettes so i won’t be bothering with this one…
Ahh! I’m thinking of trying to get this one.. I’m always the unlucky one that misses out somehow :p I don’t own any of the UD shadows so I’m definitely interested. AIW packaging.. BONUS!! xxx
Aw this is so helpful! I mean not to me as I don’t own any UD shadows but just in general 😀 I am planning on getting this if I can. I think I owe it to them to buy it purely on grounds of not owning any before!! xxx
I don’t own any UD products except the UDPP so i could get this guilt-free 🙂 However, and I risk my life saying this… but I think the book of shadows vol 2 looks better- except the pretty packaging!
Just to plan ahead for 1st March, do we know what time it’ll be released on the website? If it’s midnight of the 28th feb i’ll be staying up to order it.
@Laura – 22nd February is the date it will be released online (no time known). 28th February instore x
