Now that you have seen the swatches with and without flash – You might be wondering about the quality, formula, pigmentation etc.
Let’s talk about the impressive side first. I am rally in love with how versatile the palette is. I am absolutely impressed with the color selection. During my travels, I would only want to carry this. For me – this is more than enough to create all the different eye looks for all outfits day as well as night.
Formula – While I wasn’t particularly impressed with some of the lighter shades; especially form the first row – ‘Weekender’, ‘Still Shot’ etc in the first row of this palette. I found other shades that are super pigmented and easily blendable too. You girls can easily make out from my swatches. All of the swatches feature double swipe of each shade. You guys can easily spot that some of the lighter colors lack pigmentation. However, the intensity changes when you apply them using a damp brush (Spritz some Urban Decay Setting Spray on the brush tip before picking the shade) etc.
Talking about shade range – I am impressed with the colors in this palette that ranges from copper bronze to smokey brown neutrals, purples, pinks, blue and greens
All shades except 2-3 lighter shades in first row are well pigmented. They have a velvety soft texture that applies and blends out easily. The satin shimmers and metallic finishes applies beautifully and they really blends like a dream. So soft and silky when applied. I noticed no fallout which is a big plus.
The mattes are overall good except for Weekender and Still Shot that appeared as a chalky texture making them difficult to blend.
The longevity of the eyeshadows are pretty impressive too. They lasted for a long time. I wore them for over 7+ hours which is great. My most favorite shades in the palette are Wanderlust, Smog, Gulit Trip, Radio, Big Sky, Double Life etc.
Overall, I love this palette and I think out of all the UD palettes I own, this is by far my favorite. I can see myself using this a lot. For the price point you are getting a variety of colors to try in a attractive packaging. If you are searching for a palette that can be used to create a number of day as well as night looks. Something which is sleek and travel friendly and suits all skin types. Urban Decay’s Born To Run Eyeshadow Palette is your globe-trotting go-to.

Mafra – A dark berry with a matte finish. While applying I found that the formula isn’t as creamy as that of 66. It dries to a matte finish. While applying you will feel a frosty kind of a finish. Nothing uncomfortable. Shade looks lovely and if you are fan of berry and purple toned shades like me – You will love this! It has micro shimmers to it that looks pretty.
Ready – A bright rose metallic sparkle color. Sort of a color that I don’t reach out to much. But, it’s stunning for any creative looks. It has the perfect sparkles to it which doesn’t feel much gritty on lips. The metallized formula feels comfortable on lips. If you have extremely dry lips – You might want to ensure you use a very hydrating lip balm prior to using the shade – Ready
66 – Shade 66 is a rich mauve nude color that has a matte finish. It applies velvety smooth and it’s my favorite finish out of the three. Highly pigmented. A single swipe provides an unbelievable laydown of color—with soft and supple texture, It suits most skintones.
Moving onto swatches
Overall, really pretty lip colors from Urban Decay. I love the shade Marfa and 66 the most. The formula is very comfortable on lips. Stays for long time and I am absolutely in love with the packaging. Very colorful packaging that awaken the wanderlust in you!
