Review of Urban Decay Naked Palette by PhiaLove627
Let me start off by saying I have had the same urban decay naked palette for over two years. I would recommend this to anyone. Here are some pros and cons:
Pros:
-amazing quality eyeshadows, all of which are full sized
-variety of colors for neutral every day looks & smokier night looks
-lasts FOREVER
-good quality brush
-overall one of the best beauty items you will buy
-Packaging is sleek and can fit into a suitcase or travel bag easily.
Cons:
-Sidecar and Creep can have fallout, sidecar being the most
-is 50 bucks, so not cheap by any means.
-Original naked palette packaging with suede can get dirty; gold foil letters will peal.
Here is my review of the shadows:
Virgin-frosty pale pink toned white. beautiful pigmentation, slightly frosty but can be blended out for a nice sheen for highlighting the eyes and/or cheekbone
Sin-my FAVORITE shade. Shimmery pink-toned champagne. most beautiful pigmentation and glow to the skin. perfect for lid color and highlight.
Naked-matte light warm brown. great pigmentation and perfect for contouring eyes.
Sidecar-cool-toned shimmery taupe with TONS of silver glitter. this is a beautiful shade but it will fall out all over your cheeks if you don't watch out.
Buck-medium color warm slightly chocolate matte brown. Great for adding depth to eye looks, great pigmentation. can be used to contour darker skin tones.
Half-baked-gorgeous bronze-toned gold. not too yellow or orange. most amazing pigmentation and sheen.
Smog-sexy bronze with gold flecks. this color makes me think of sexy summer nights. beautiful pigmentation.
Darkhorse-deep green-toned brown with flecks of gold,green,&slight red. this color will make green eyes pop! great for smoking liner and adding darkness to the eyes.
toasted-rosey, shimmery brown. great pigmentation, nice lid shade for green eyes, but looks good on everyone. this can make your lids look irritated so be careful.
Hustle- purple toned darkest brown with purple flecks throughout it. can be slightly dry at first, but then that seems to go away with use. great for those who want a purple look to their eyes without actually using purple.
Creep-strange color, looks black with blue and silver glitter, but is actually a deep navy blue. I never use this shape except when I'm doing a smokier look. Great for those who want to use an eyeshadow for eyeliner with a kick. decent pigmentation.
Gunmental-my least favorite color, but don't let that deter you. it is a very nice deep silvery grey with some nice silver shimmers. good pigmentation.
Overall this palette is amazing. Some may be turned away by the price, but I guarantee, if you're a lover of neutral toned more natural looks, this maybe the only palette you use.
