My Favorite Palette
Thursday, August 25, 2016
I can't even remember the last time I made a whole post dedicated to makeup. Right now I'm on vacation and the one palette I've packed is the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette. I've gone on SEVERAL weekend trips to see my boyfriend, and that is also the only palette I've brought. I own the Urban Decay Naked 2 & 3, but I still find myself reaching for this one.
For a neutral eye, I like to put the first shad all over my lid. The second color blended in my crease. And the third color on my outer v. If I want to make it a little bit more dramatic, I'll take that dark chocolate brown and also blend that into my outer v. Lastly, I take the bright white/pink shade and highlight with it.
For an even more neutral look, I'll take the bright white/pink and put that all over my lid. Then I'll take that medium toned pink (2nd from the right) and blend that in my crease. Finally, that second shade (from the left) will go in my outer v.
Probably my favorite shades though in this palette are the black, purple, and purple/grey. Those three shades intensify any look and make it super sultry. Your day time look will be transformed instantly!
I don't get much use out of the blue/grey shades. However, my boyfriend used them on me when he did my makeup once. I don't think they go all that well with my pale complexion and green/brown eyes. Oh well! You can't love every shade in a palette! But maybe if I play with them a little bit more, I'll change my mind.
And there you have it, my thoughts on the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette. What palette can you not live without?

They are pretty expensive just for some eyeshadows but in my opinion it's worth to own at least one. I am so glad you've been enjoying my blog. That means the world to me!
