Urban Decay Naked Basics
Usually I like to mix things up a bit when it comes to my eye
shadows however lately I have been steering towards the same palette time and time
again - the urban decay naked basics palette.
I picked mine up at Debenhams for only £20 - which considering
that a Mac quad would set you back at almost £50 this little ,iPhone sized,
palette is an absolute steal - especially considering you are getting 6 full
sized shadows in this palette.
This palette includes 5 exclusive matte shadows and one shimmery
shadow in the shade Venus. Having previously been an exclusive "mac
girl" when it came to eye shadows I have to say I am really impressed with
the quality of Urban Decay eye shadows - in particular their pigmentation. The
size of this palette is just brilliant as it is perfect to travel with. However,
I must note, for those of you who are wondering, this palette does not contain
a brush but I find that these shadows work so great with my Eco Tools and Mac
brushes that I don't actually miss the brush. Another great thing about this
palette is that it comes with a mirror so it is ideal for when you are on the
go - not that I can ever imagine actually applying eye shadows 'on the go' ha
ha but you get the picture.
This product is so versatile that it is very hard to go wrong
with. However one look I have been gravitating towards lately is a very subtle
smokey eye. I do this by washing walk of shame all over the lid and then using
my Mac 217 brush blend Naked 2 in the crease of my eye. Then I lightly apply
Venus in the centre of the eyelid just using my ring finger to add a little
brightness to my eye area. I finish off with just adding a touch of Venus below
the brow bone to highlight.
Have you tried any of the urban decay palettes if so which are
your favourites?

I've got the Naked 2 Palette which I love and I can't decide whether it would just be unnecessary to get this one too! Haha,
