Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette

Let's say it - this eye shadow palette is expensive. Before the Naked3 palette, I was using a similar drug-store palette made by Maybelline because I was unsure if it worth shelling out so much money. In the end, I did purchase the Naked3 palette and it was 100% worth it. Reasons to buy this palette: - Each color is very pigmented, so a little on your brush goes a long way. - Soft natural-like colors that blends together beautifully to wear everyday. - If you want some more 'edge' in your look, pop in some of the darkest colors to the corner for your eye lid. - I don't wear eye liner anymore, I just use the darkest color to create a 'cat eye' or winged look (use a eye shadow primer for long wear). - High-quality case. This palette is pretty hefty and clicks closes very well, so no worries about it being damaged during travel. Differences between Naked3 vs drugstore palette: - I used to have to *dig* into the drugstore colors with my brush to make sure I have enough color to brush over my eye lid. Now I lightly *dab* my brush on the Naked3 palette, and its enough color. - Minimal to no fall out when applying the Naked3, whereas the drugstore palette I had to use a q-tip to brush off accidental mistakes. For the price of Naked3, in the long run its probably going to last you as long as buying 2-3 drugstore palettes *and* the colors are a favorite for everyday use or a night out. To me, I think the colors are not that intensive which makes you look more kind and approachable to others. =) If you're on the fence about it... Just buy it! If you don't like it, Sephora has a fantastic return policy. I'm keeping mine forever, and I think it'll last me at minimum for 2+ years with everyday use lol.

One of my all time favorite pallets. The colors are very pigmented and super blendable. Not a ton of fallout and doesn't crease. LOVE love love my naked3

I LOVE THIS PALETTE SO MUCH. I'm so picky about buying eye shadow and I contemplate buying certain things for ridiculous amounts of time. In this case, I waited 4 years to buy this thing. Should have bought it sooner. I would tell anyone to go out and buy it today and quit wondering. Colors are sooo pretty and pigmented. Glides on so smoothly. Stays put all day. Blends flawlessly. Looks especially great with a primer. I love the little dual ended brush that comes with it. Good quality brush to be included with a palette. MY ONLY COMPLAINT is that the packaging feels a little cheap. It's nice and heavy, but when I open the palette, the top plastic the mirror is attached to, comes apart from the metal casing on the outside. I just pop it back in, but for paying $50-something dollars for this, I wouldn't expect it to come apart like that. Doesn't bother me enough to take away a star though or stop me from buying this in the future. The eye shadow formula itself does not disappoint.

I have loved this palette ever since it came out, the shades are gorgeous and when i swatched the colors in the store, they were beautiful and pigmented. However, when I finally got my hands on this palette, it was so heartbreaking how this palette ended up not being what I thought it was. Forget using brushes with this palette, you will NOT pick up any product. I have to scrub the eyeshadow with my finger to pick up any color at all and even then the pigmentation is mediocre; I'm just left with a bunch of fall out and a streak of unblendable color on my eyelid. It is so disappointing! I read all of these amazing reviews and I'm just left wondering what went wrong with my palette- is it possible that I just got a bad one? I love these colors soooooo much but I just can't seem to use these eyeshadows at all because of the low pigmentation and unblendability. :(

I absolutely love this Naked 3 palette! There are so many different combinations that you can put together... the sky's the limit! I have gotten so many compliments since I've started wearing these eye shadows. Some on my makeup and some just saying that I look so good that day. I love that all of the shades are lighter and darker shades of pink. Even the darkest color is black with red glittery specks in it. The palette also comes with a really nice brush with one end for blending and the other for lining. One thing I would recommend, especially for the darker shades, is wetting the brush before applying. I used the Darkheart (black) color to line my top lid and it flaked onto my cheek and I had to remove it with makeup remover (and it made a bit of a mess). But now that I know that, and I wet the brush beforehand, I have no problems with it flaking. So, in conclusion, although this palette is a bit pricey, I would buy it again. The colors are just beautiful, the pigmentation is awesome, the shadows are long lasting and I think overall it's worth it.
