So as you may have seen by my holiday haul last week, I
purchased the beautiful Urban Decay NAKED 3 Palette in Duty Free. It was there
at a discounted price, I couldn’t leave it. No, that would be cruel…
I am very slowly, but definitely, growing my makeup
collection and it makes me very, very happy. I already have the original NAKED
Palette which I love so much and I use all the time, so when I saw the NAKED 3
in person, I just couldn’t say no. I was originally looking for the 2 but they
didn’t have that one in, so I went for the 3 instead and honestly I couldn’t be
happier with it. I do want to get the 2 eventually to complete my collection
though, along with a lot of other makeup products currently on my want list… We
all have them and they’re thousands of pounds long let’s get real ladies.
Anyway, on with the review.
I heard that this was great for people with blue eyes, and
since I have blue eyes, well it’s a perfect match isn’t it really! I was also
drawn to this palette because it’s completely different to the 2 palettes
before it. The original and the 2 both have quite neutral tones in, whereas the
3 has very rose and pink colours which is absolutely gorgeous and makes the
palette completely unique to anything I’ve ever come across before.
As always, the eyeshadows are amazing quality because Urban
Decay know exactly what they’re doing and of course the Primer Potion samples
you get along with the palette are absolutely amazing as well. Talking about
the Primer Potion samples, it says that you get a weeks-worth of shadow from
each sachet, am I the only one who gets way more than a weeks-worth? Anyway, I
must invest in the Primer Potion as soon as all the samples are used up!
The colours again range from matte to shimmer to glitter so
there’s something in there for everyone. There is also a huge contrast between
light and dark within the palette which makes it so versatile for daytime and
evening wear. The shadows are so pigmented and go onto the eye so easily and
stays on all day *with the primer potion*.
Pink isn’t usually a colour I would go for on my eyes but
now that I’ve tried this palette it works so well and it’s so much easier to
pull off than you would think. There are an endless amount of looks you can
create with this palette and at the moment I’m loving trying them all out,
though I have discovered my favourites already.
I don’t think there’s really much else I can say because the
palette just speaks for itself. It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen
and I’m so happy I bought it, I know I’m going to get so much use out of this.
Well done Urban Decay.
What's your favourite eyeshadow palette?
