Urban Decay Get Baked Palette - review and swatches

 A while ago I was sent this Urban Decay Get Baked palette in an International Swap with Michelle from Lipstick Rules.
Lara (if you are Italian, then you may know her under the name Chienkiri on Youtube) was interested in a review, so here it is.
This is how the palette looks like in its packaging. It comes with a mini size of Primer Potion in Sin.



 This is the actual packaging, which I find really stylish. But then again, most Urban Decay products are :)

 This is the real size of the palette, just in case it looks big in other pictures. It's not.

 This is a lousy swatch of Primer Potion in Sin on my hand. It's a champagne colored primer and it is a bit shimmery, but nothing too forlorn.

And here is the open palette. As you can see, there are four eyeshadows and a travel size of their 24/7 glide-on pencil in bourbon, which is one of my faves ever!

And here are the swatches of the shadows and the eye pencil. 
Please zoom in to see them in all their glory.
I love Urban Decay eyeshadows for they are buttery soft and incredibly blendable. 
I have to say, their texture is amazing. They don't just sit on your skin. They merge with it. 
Baked is the one shadow that really grabs your attention: it's a bronzy gold shade and it is so powerful! 
I find this palette to be very versatile for both summer and winter, what do you think?

To be honest with you, I have no idea how much this retails outside the US - and especially here in Italy, I don't know its price as I do not have a Sephora store near me. 
Guess you'll just have to check that, or try ebay ;)
