I know I am a little late, but I wanted to wish you all a Happy New Year. Since I have not blogged in a while, I thought it would be good to have my first blog of the year be on a new product.
If you are familiar with Urban Decay, then you know about the Naked palettes. UD has come out with 4 palettes under this line (Naked, Naked 2, Naked Basics, and Naked 3). Unlike the first 3 palettes before it, Naked 3 is totally different from the previous palette.
For $52, you receive 12 buttery eyeshadows and a weeks worth of all of the Urban Decay primer. All of the eyeshadows are very pigmented and blend out like a dream. According to the UD website, these are all of the eyeshadows you will receive:
 |
| From left to right: Strange - pale neutral pink matte-satin Dust - pale metallic pink shimmer with iridescent micro-glitter Burnout - light pinky-peach satin Limit - light dusty rose matte |
 |
| From left to right: Buzz - metallic rose shimmer with silver micro-glitter Trick - light metallic pinky-copper shimmer with tonal micro-sparkle Nooner - medium pinky-brown matte Liar - medium metallic mauve shimmer |
 |
| From left to right: Factory - pinky-brown satin Mugshot - metallic taupe shimmer with slight pink shift Darkside - deep taupe-mauve satin Blackheart - smoky black matte with rosy red micro-sparkle |

All in all, I love the Naked 3 palette. There are a lot of colors in this palette that I do not have in my collection. If you are just starting out with makeup, I would purchase the first Naked palette to start off with. Out of all three palettes, Naked 3 is my favorite color wise. However, package wise, I love the original Naked palette. With the tin packaging that comes with both the second and third naked palettes, it appears bulkier and some of the eyeshadows have a tendency of ungluing itself from the palette. From the picture above, you can clearly see how Blackout from the Naked 2 palette is shattered. I do not have the Naked Basics palette since it is so similar to the other Naked palettes, but if you want to own one of the palettes but do not want to spend as much money on it, then the Naked Basics palette is for you.
Overall, I am a huge supporter of Urban Decay and I cannot wait to play with my Naked 3 palette more, especially with my college graduation coming up. Look out for a eye look using this palette in the upcoming months. If you want a more in-depth review on this palette or the other two, let me know in the comments below.
Disclaimer: These palettes were given to me as gifts from my mom and a friend. I have purchased a Naked palette before for a friend as well. I am not being paid for this review. The descriptions of the shadows are from the Urban Decay website.
