Product Review: Naked Basics Palette

Hey Guys,

Urban Decay has probably one of the best pigmented shadow palettes and they came out with a palette exclusively for matte shadows. This is version 1 I am reviewing and they recently came out with a second one, it has more taupe-y shades versus the first palette.

I went through a phase where I only used shimmery shadows but using this palette redefined my taste in makeup. This palette will help you achieve classy, sophisticated put together looks in just minutes. I love this palette so much, its my go to whenever I want simple fast eye makeup. My favourite shade is Naked 2 I just apply it all over my lid with a winged liner and it makes me look like I've put effort into my makeup when I really didn't :P
Here are the swatches of this palette, they're very creamy and blend beautifully. Definitely worth the buy :)

Venus, Foxy, W.O.S, Naked 2, Faint, Crave

Easy Subtle Smokey Eye

Hey Guys,

Today's look i tried out a very subtle smokey eye look thats super easy and wearable during the day and can be transformable to a night time look! I'm going to be focusing on the day time look for this post"

1. Apply an all over wash of the desired colour you want, i did a simple light shimmery colour from MAC called Naked Lunch

2. Defined my crease lightly with a soft brown colour any brown will due

3. Line your upper lash line with a black eyeliner i used Milani Liquid Eye Pencil, its creamy and blend able. Look for a liner like this for this look, something like Urban Decay's 24/7 eyeliner.

4. Using a smudging brush start smudging the liner up, concentrate on the outer corner of the eye. Bring the smudging up and start creating a V shape in the corner of the eye.

                                           

Its a very subtle light smokey eye but makes it look like you worked hard on it, when actually its super easy and fast!

                                                        

5. Finish it off with mascara and i also connected it with a light liner on the bottom lashes but only in the outer corner.


And done! its super easy and subtle and super wearable during the day time!

Hope you enjoyed it :)

Hearts,
