The original neutral eyeshadow palette to take the world by storm was the Naked Palette by Urban Decay. In the years following it’s release, many brands have imitated the “original palette” with cheaper versions of this neutral eye shadow collection, including efforts by W7, Little Mix for Collection Cosmetics, The Balm, Barry M and MUA. But for me, nothing beats the original and even though £38 may seem a bit pricey for an eyeshadow product, it is definitely worth treating yourself to or adding to your birthday / Christmas wishlists.
With endless neutral colour combinations you can go from a light and brightening eye to a sexy and smouldering smokey look. The only thing that I would change about this eye shadow palette is the composition, as it is outlined in a strange felt like material. And, if you are anything like me with getting foundation everywhere and make-up all over your hands whilst getting ready, then I am guessing that my Naked eyeshadow palette will not be looking this pristine quite soon. Having said that Urban Decay corrected this with a tin shell for their Naked 2 Palette: Hoorah!
Have you tried the Urban Decay original Naked Palette? Or, do you have a beloved dupe that reigns in your neutral eyeshadow collection?
I think I am possibly the only blogger in the universe that doesn't own one of these!
Adding it to my Christmas list for sure Hidden Freckles xx

I have Naked 2 and two other palettes by UD and love them. SO worth the price tag! I'm really tempted to add Naked Smoked to my collection too xx

I have both Naked 2 and Naked 3 but for some reason I've never bothered picking the original one up, I think that will have to be changed soon!

It is really good, such a cult product! xx
I am dying for the new smokey one too – the shades have such good staying power! xx
Oooh, I would love to try that one xx
If you like the Naked palettes you should also think about trying Zoeva too, as they also have some fabulous ones xx
Exactly! The only pain is the felt case gets ruined xx
YES, me too! Although, I am a bit rubbish at doing a smokey eye – maybe they will help! xx
I need to try 2 and 3 too, so maybe we should both treat ourselves 🙂 xx

I really do love the original Naked palette, even though it leans a little warmer, I find it so good for when I don't know what eye look I want to wear. The matte shades in the palette I love especially!
