Makeup Wars: The Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Palette

Hey Hey Hey Everyone! Today I teamed up with several other fabulous bloggers to do something I haven’t done in a while. A Makeup Look!! Aww! It’s crazy that I blog about beauty but I never really get on here and share looks that I’ve created from palettes. Maybe that’ll change going into 2017 who knows.

So, today I’m featuring an eye look that I created from the Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Palette. The Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basic Palette contains 12 neutral matte shades. At first look, I thought the shades in this palette were kinda meh, but once I started to play with them, I realized that they were everything my sensible adult self-needed.

To start this look, I primed my eyes using the Urban Decay Primer Potion and then blended the shade Faith from the crease to right underneath the brown bone. The reason I did this is that I have a skin disorder and I needed my both of my eyelids to be uniform before adding any other shades. Next, I added Extra Bitter to the crease and continued it into my water line to create the eyeshadow look.

Now that I’ve framed out the shape I patted the shade Nudie onto my eyelid to fill the space created by adding Extra Bitter to my crease. I love a good smokey eye, and this palette is great for doing one. To resist that urge I decided instead to take the shade Lethal and blend that into my outer v working it midway into my crease and onto the outer part of my lower lash line.

After all that blending I went back in and added Nudie onto my lid to refresh the shade. Lastly, I blended the shade Blow onto my brow bone

One thing I can say about this palette is that the shades blend like butter and make application very very easy. Even though I did my eyes before completing my face, I found that fallout. I really really loved my final look and will probably be repeating this over and over again.

Now that you’ve seen my look, check out some other great looks using this same palette from some of my beauty blogging friends!
