Urban Decay wastage.


Perhaps about a year ago, I invested in an Urban Decay naked palette. I loved all the colours and have nothing but admiration for Urban Decay and their eye products. So I figured it would be a great investment. However I have fallen into the same rut that most of us do, where I only use the same few colours whilst leaving the rest of the palette unloved. Having said that, I do feel that I'm qualified to give this product a brief plug as I have used the others at some point or another.

Firstly I think the colour selection in this palette is great, it gives a good mix of gentle shades that would be suitable for both day or night or any number of events. They are all fantastic quality and last for several hours. They blend well and many of them are pigmented in a way that catches the light subtly. They all match with at least one of the other colours.

The packaging is simple but statemented in a way that only Urban Decay products are. It's lined in felt and has a small handy mirror inside. It also comes with a reasonable good brush, however they are used much better with a blending brush.

Below I've swatched the colours I use the most, especially in my day to day look that I can't seem to get of. From left to right they are called Virgin, Naked and Buck. Interestingly, these are all non shimmered colours, I guess I save the shimmer for more glamorous occasions!

Anyways if you are near an Urban Decay counter any time soon swing by and have a look. They now also have a Naked 2 palette which I've also heard great things about, but I won't be investing in that until I learn to actually use the colours in my first palette I think!
