PRODUCT DETAIL:
(From Sephora)

Naked Palette
What it is:
A universally flattering palette that features 12 eyeshadows with a distinctly Urban look.

What it does:
This long, lean, and seductive case comes packed with 12 gorgeous neutrals that work for absolutely everyone. Shades range from delicate champagne to gritty gunmetal, and feature five stunning new shades. A variety of textures, including glitter, shimmer, and matte, ensure that you'll never get bored. This versatile palette can go from office appropriate to a night on the town. The mirrored case also features a new professional-quality, cruelty-free Good Karma Eyeshadow Brush, plus a travel-size Eyeshadow Primer Potion in original formula.

This set contains:
- 12 x 0.05 oz shadows in: Virgin (nude satin), Sin (champagne shimmer), Naked (buff matte), Sidecar (beige sparkle), Buck (brown matte), Half Baked (bronze), Smog (golden brown shimmer), Darkhorse (bronze-plum shimmer), Toasted (taupe-bronze), Hustle (mocha shimmer), Creep (near-black metallic), Gunmetal (dark grey metallic)
- Good Karma Eyeshadow Brush
- 0.13 oz Travel-size Eyeshadow Primer Potion

What else you need to know:
The rich chocolate velvet and gold foil-covered case conjures up images of pure decadence.

MY THOUGHTS:
*Pros:
-I'm a super duper ultra mega in love with neutral color eye shadow palettes :p
- Very pigmented
-Easy to blend and doesn't crease, though the UDPP really makes a difference with staying power
-Comes with a travel size UD Primer Potion and brush (which I personally doesn't love nor hate, just okay)
-I love the packaging
(The last 2 pros mentioned are the reasons why I prefer this over Naked 2. I chose to have a travel size UDPP than a Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Naked which I already have. I also prefer a velvet-type of packaging than a metal, somewhat pencil case looking packaging.)

*Cons:
-I wish for Blackout instead of Creep
-Larger mirror is more appreciated (but anyway I have to consider the materials used for packaging though)
-I prefer a double-ended eye pencil than a karma brush (which works better as a concealer brush or an eye primer brush instead of eyehading brush) :p
-Isn't available locally.

*Little sharing:
-If you have someone who can purchase you from Sephora then it would be better since it often comes with free gifts unlike the local random Philippine online shops which sells in a higher price plus shipping fee and without any freebie.
-It would be better to buy from legit stores. Beware of fakes! See this POST.

OVERALL:
I love this palette. Great for everyday look! I'll find time to make tutorials with this foooosure. I already have some ideas :p

Thank you so much for reading!

  1. I wanted to send you one little bit of note just to say thank you as before considering the nice concepts you have discussed in this article. It's quite tremendously open-handed with you to make unreservedly exactly what most people could have offered for sale as an electronic book in making some cash for themselves, precisely now that you could possibly have done it if you ever wanted. The smart ideas in addition worked as a fantastic way to fully grasp that many people have a similar eagerness like my own to grasp much more when it comes to this condition. I believe there are many more pleasant sessions ahead for individuals that scan your blog.
