Urban Decay's NAKED Basics

[Jackieblue]

Thank you. I will check it out during my Ulta swatchfest. I am fairly certain I have swatched it in the past and enough of the colors would not have worked that I passed. But who knows, it won't hurt to take another look!

I was in Sephora website earlier and thinking of getting this because I sssoooo love UD Naked. I already have the other two and it seems like my heart was broken when I saw the reviews. Would there be any chances that they will put this on discounted sale (well, not soon, but maybe next year)? I bought the LORAC Pro Palette instead. Thanks for the suggestions/feedback ladies!

Yay! So glad you got it! You will definitely not regret it. I haven't pulled out any other palettes or shadows since I bought it. Let us know what you think!

Not as small, and slightly more expensive, but take a look at Stila's In The Know palette. $39 before the coupon applies.

"The In the Know eye shadow palette contains 10 matte shades of Stila's award-winning eye shadows that flatter every skin tone and can be worn wet or dry. The palette also includes an exclusive Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Halfmoon, a matte charcoal grey shade, plus an eight-page look book with detailed application tips and tricks."

That looks like a great matte basics palette!  Ahhhh!  I don't know how I have never heard of that one before!

My NAKED Basics just arrived and I'm like, "Wow that's small!" Just to put it into perspective on how small - width wise it fits on my keyboard between the letters E and O and covers up to the space bar. THAT is just the EXTERIOR box, the actual palette fits between E and I and covers three rows of keyboard keys and doesn't even touch the space bar.

If you don't have an ULTA coupon, you can get 20% off plus free shipping at stila.com. But the sale ends at midnight tonight, so act fast!

Speaking of 20% off. Sephora will have a 20% off online sale items from 12/21 to 12/31. Promo code EXTRA. To clarify it's from items on sale at www.sephora.com/extra20.

I have this and I love it!  I do freelance makeup and I used this palette on the bride for a wedding and she looked at herself in the mirror when I was done and was like, "Omg wow, I can't believe this is me!"  It's a pretty good buy.  I still got naked basics anyway--partly cause I can carry it around in my purse and I don't have Naked 2 palette so I felt it was justified.  Lol.

I already own the first two naked palettes, but I still wanted this one. I got it for Christmas, and I have to say, I really like it. Definitely complimentary to the first two palettes.

So glad to hear that! I also have the first two. My sister bought me Naked Basics for Christmas, but we haven't had a chance to exchange gifts yet.

I got the Naked Basics palette for Christmas and I'm madly in LOVE!!!! It's so gorgeous. I seriously love this palette hardcore. It wears really well. I put it over MAC paint pot in painterly and it stayed put all day through shopping. It looked perfect when I went to wash my makeup off before bed. All the colors are just perfect together. It is so worth $27!!! I'm in love!

I gave naked basics to my mom for Christmas, because she wanted a naked palette but only wears mattes. She is in love! It was nice to see her wear more than just one all over color on her eyes. She looked great! I kind of want to buy one for myself now, but I love shimmers so I don't know how much I'd use it. 

 

[Chiajanine]

not getting this.  naked is the best.  who wants the dull matte colors on this - and they are so light and yellowy!  I have Naked and Naked 2 and i mostly use regular NAKED and never touch the light pale matte ones. other than to put the lightest in the corner of my eye/nose.  what's the point!  wish they combined naked 1 and 2 with the 12 total awesomest colors.  the only nice color on the mini naked pallette is the last one!  Faint.  sort of wish i had venus too.  looks pearly and shimmery and nice.  but not nice enough for me to run to buy it!

I swatched this palette on in store and am super unimpressed. Everything except the darkest two shades just disappear into my skin, even when I pat it on. Skiiiiip. (I'm a 120 in MUFE HD foundation & more yellow/not as pink than Missha Signature Real Complete BB Cream in 21.)

As for the UD deluxe sample that came w/ my last UD order... 

Very disappointed in this so called BB cream. I wish Western cosmetic companies would stop making what are essentially tinted moisturizers and make actual BB creams.

I wanted to get this from Ulta since they just had a 20% percent off that ended on Monday along with a $6 dollar coupon but of course it was sold out. I got one today with a 5 dollars off. I kept saying I didn't need it but I don't really have many simple basic matte shades so this fit the bill. It really compliments the first two Naked palettes which I already own.

 

[kerker]

I want this but as other posters, I don't need it. I'm constantly eyeing it off on beautybay lol

 

[rubyredmua]

I'm definitely a big Urban Decay fan but I feel a bit disappointed with this palette. I only have the first Naked palette and that works perfectly fine for me and my clients. I think that I would rather stick to the first Naked Palette and if I were to expand I'd get the rest of the palettes but not this one. I love a lot of UD stuff to leave them!! LOL

OMG there is NOTHING disappointing with this palette! I love it so much! I've used it every day since Christmas. It's amazing how many looks you can do with just a few neutrals! I'm sure the Naked Palette is fantastic, but this palette is great in it's own right. It's renewed my love of matte shadows after wearing shimmers for so long. I must say Crave and Venus are to die for.

My sister & I are in complete agreement about our levels of goo hoarding. I sent her a YouTube link of a tour of a makeup artist's entire makeup ROOM and referred to it as goo porn. Her response...gookake!!

 

[belleetbeaut]

The only problem that I had with my naked 1 palette, and the reason that I didn't buy the naked 2, is that I find the more shimmery/glittery colours very hard to wear on a more day to day basis. I love them for night time, if i go out etc. But I was wishing that there were more matte colours. This is perfect for me and is on my Birthday Wishlist!! 

I hope to get a lot of use out of this in the near future! yay for mattes /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
