Naked. Smoky. Palette. Never was there an eyeshadow collection that has caused such a social media frenzy. And rightly so.
After three different variations of this modern-day cult classic, the Naked Smoky Palette from Urban Decay offers up nine totally new shades for your smoky eye pleasure. But before we get in to that, let’s take a moment to savour the utterly orgasmic packaging. Please excuse me while I geek out. This palette is a sight for sore eyes. A smoked marble design decorates the unusually heavy case. Inside, the palette boasts full size mirror and an exceptional, high quality, double-ended brush.
Unlike most eyeshadow palettes dedicated to smoky eyes, this one isn’t dominated by the usual charcoals and silvers; there’s an even mix of warm and cool shades to suit pretty much all skin tones, in both matte and sparkling formulations. As with all Urban Decay products, the shadows are well pigmented and a little goes a long way once blended.
If it hasn’t sold out already, I’m certain this palette is well on its way to being one of this year’s best sellers. So get your skates on and get down to your local beauty hub because this one is set to be a modern day staple for all makeup bags.
