Urban Decay Naked Palette Review and Swatches


I've been meaning to review this product for a while. At the end of January I finally bought the product that I have been lusting over since it debuted, the Urban Decay Naked palette. I've wanted it for along time and $48 was a lot to spend on an eyeshadow palette, but I decided that since I've been working so hard in school, I deserved to splurge and treat myself to it.
May I just start of by saying how beautiful each color is?  I was just shell shocked when I opened this palette and saw the colors! Almost each shade is a beautiful shimmery color and the matte shadows are gorgeous too.  The colors are super pigmented and it doesn't take much to get the job done.  A few colors, such as Sidecar, are very glittery so some fallout occurs, but that's easy to fix.  Simply place some tape under your eye and tap the brush on your lid.
With this palette came a brush, which is okay quality, I perfer to use my Sigma brush set, but the brush is nice to have for when I'm traveling.  The only thing I do not like about this palette is the packaging. I don't like the way felt feels and it get dirty very quickly.  But I love this product so much that I could easily overlook that fact.  Below are swatches of all 12 shadows. Thanks for reading!
