So anyone that knows me, knows how much I love Urban Decay and specifically the Naked Palettes. I own every all 3 and they're definitely my go to. When I'm traveling I just grab them and go because I know I can do any look I could possibly want to do.
For those who aren't as familiar with these palettes, there are 3 in the series. They contain 12 eye shadows that are "neutrals". Naked 1 was very warm, bronzy shadows, Naked 2 was very cool toned shades, and Naked 3 are rosy gold toned shades. Like I previously said, I do own all 3 but I tend to gravitate towards the Naked 1 & Naked 3 more than the Naked 2, but only because I'm very warm toned so I always have to add a shade for warmth to make my eyes look the way I want them to.
Now for the main focus, The Naked 3! I can not express how much I love this palette. I was worried about how the rose gold shades would look on me even though I do look better in warm shades I was afraid they would be too much on the pink side. To my surprise they looked great on my skin tone. If you're super cool toned these shadows probably won't be your cup of tea because you're going to have to incorporate something cool toned or your shadow will just fall flat. The only complaint I have is some of the shades are so similar that if you use them together on your eye it looks the exact same, so that's something you definitely have to be mindful of. Other than that, I really have no complaints at all. The colors are beautiful, they blend wonderfully and are very pigmented.
All the Naked palettes run at about $50-$52. I know that seems like a big hunk of money for just a makeup palette, but because of the amazing quality and pigmentation you really don't use a lot so they will last you. I've seriously had my Naked 1 since 2011 and I've only hit pan on 4 shadows out of 12! That's pretty dang good considering I'm usually using at least on of my Naked Palettes on a daily basis. If you're into makeup and like to do you're make up, I think they would be a good investment. Especially seeing as a single UD shadow runs for $18 and a single MAC shadow runs for $15, you're saving money in the long run.
So, long story short I LOVE that Naked 3. It's probably my favorite out of all of them. I'm very happy I decided (or well my hubby decided) to purchase it. Urban Decay is one of my all time favorite brands for make up I prefer their eye shadows over any brand. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to branch out into "higher end" make up. You won't be disappointed! I hope you enjoyed this review and if you have any specific questions please send them my way! Stay Beautiful lovies! :) {Swatches below}
