Naked Basics Palette


The Urban Decay original Naked Palette is one of my favourite eyeshadow palettes, and probably my most used. So when a miniature version of it came out I knew I had to have it. I ummed and ahhed about buying this and in the end two of my lovely friends bought me this for my birthday last year.

Of course as a lover of neutral eyeshadows this is now one of my favourite palettes. I find I use the colours are all wearable for everyday use, but some of the lighter shades don’t show up so well with my skin tone as you can see from the swatches. I actually use the shade Faint the most, as I colour my eyebrows in with that everyday. My favourite combination is to use Naked 2 for an all over colour and then Faint in my crease for an everyday smokey eye look. I often use Crave as a liner on my waterline as well, and find it keeps my eyeliner in place all day. This is now my most reached for eyeshadow palette, and I think I might even love it more than the original palette…

Are you an Urban Decay Naked Palette fan? Or like me do you think you prefer the Naked Basics?
