Beauty with an edge.

United States·Founded 1996·by Sandy Lerner & Wende Zomnir

Urban Decay launched in 1996 with a mission to add color and edge to a beauty market dominated by pinks and nudes. The brand made its name with bold, unconventional shades and a rebellious attitude. The Naked palette, launched in 2010, became the most influential eyeshadow palette of its era, single-handedly making warm neutrals the default in every makeup bag.

Beyond the Naked franchise, Urban Decay is known for the All Nighter Setting Spray (a bestseller in the setting spray category), Eyeshadow Primer Potion, and a range of vibrant, long-wearing products designed for expressive, creative makeup.
