A rose gold naked palette? Yes, please!

The first thing you will notice about this pallete is that it is metal and a beautiful shade of rose gold. Naked 3 is embossed into the case. The case has a wavy almost to zebralike pattern in the metal.

Upon opening the case, you will catch the reflection of your beautiful self in the wide mirror that follows the length of the case. It is a pretty generous sized mirror and a nice touch. There is also a double ended metal rose gold synthetic brush included in the case. One end is a little wider, fluffy, and rounded. It's also denser than the other end. The other end is flat, compact, and less fluffy to apply color in a more concentrated manner.

The colors range from a very pale matte rose shade to a very darkly pigmented eggplant shade with finally milled ruby glitter. My favorite shades are "dust," a very sparkly pink fairy finish, and "trick," which is a metallic rose gold that is identical to the color of the pallete case.

Similar to any of urban decay palletes that came before this addition, all colors are extremely pigmented with great color pay off. You would not need an eyeshadow primer but it is recommended for longer wear.

Without a primer, these last for me a solid eight hours. I have even fallen asleep in my make up, more than I'd like to admit, and been able to pull off second day eyeshadow.

All colors are creamy and blendable. I did feel that the shades wire, factory and mug shot were a little redundant. They are all metallic finish and within a shade difference from each other. They are beautiful colors though so if you like them you will not be disappointed. "Limit" and "nooner" are 2 shades apart on the color wheel but together could give a nice mono chromatic look using one as an all over color and one as a definer.

I would recommend this pallete over the other "naked" palletes simply because I love rose gold and feel these gorgeous rose hued neutrals whatever look lovely on a variety of skin tones.

Tips: Make sure eyelids are free of oil before application. You can use the darker shades over eyeliner for added staying power.

Really nice palette

This is really great if you're a fan of the rose gold look, like all Urban Decay shadows these blend so nicely, but a few of the lighter colours are a little sheerer than I had expected, and a few of the last colours are a bit too similar, It would have been better if one of them was matte. The colours are all very very pretty though, and there are so many different combinations/looks to made

I do really love this palette, and I have absolutely no regrets with it, but if you're not too fussed with the brand/quality Maybelline does a really nice Blushed Nudes palette which has very similar colours, the shadows are not too bad and its only $30-something. In saying that, I definitely do use Naked3 more

My go to

With this palette I pretty much never use any of my other eyeshadows anymore. I love how I can mix and match with all the different colours and how useful it is both for everyday use and for special ocassions. One of the best purchases I have made.

My new favorite pallete

I'm in love. The colours, the pigment, the long lasting look. I cannot get enough of it! Creating beautiful day and night looks. Have tried on skin tones that suit warm tones and it looks simply beautiful. I have heard some negativity towards the brush it comes with but I have no problem with it: easy to clean, aids in a simple beautiful look.

Tips: Use a primer underneath. Or spray your brush with make up setter to assist with long lasting color.

My favorite palette

My brother went to america and i gave him a list of what to get me from sephora this was my top request lol. First impression is the beautiful packaging it is a rose gold metal case, once opened you see the beautiful 12 shades going from darkest browns to lightest pinks and rose golds. One of the best things i find about this palette is the different types of eye shadows as there are matte and metallic shades. This palette also comes with a double sided eye shadow brush and mirror. The colours are deep and very pigmented, the colours are also very bledable. The range of colours makes it easy to do a nude look for the day or a dramatic look for going out on date night. My favourite clouors i this are Strange, Dust, Limit, Tick and Nooner.

Tips: Use a primer under to lengthen wear.

Disappointing

I bought this palette when I started trying more intense eyeshadow looks and it was a good first palette to have. As I started to explore more palettes and brands it became clear that this palette really was not that great. The colours aren't that pigmented and often takes a few coats to really bring out proper colour on the lids. The colours also do not blend very well and end up looking patchy on the lids. I expected the glittery looking shades to be incredible but they just do not transfer on to the lids well. Incredibly disappointed and haven't bought any other Urban Decay eyeshadows since because of the money spent on this product for the quality.

Suits me the best

I have naked 2,3 and heat and this palette suits me the best, I can use all colours without looking sick, I know it sounds strange, but there are colours that really make me look like I’m dying from some mysterious illness and it’s not a good look! But this one is great with my hair colour, complexion and use it every day for work.

Colours are blendable and creamy, they roll up in my cease at the end of the day, but it’s not a surprise in my working environment - I work in a pie shop. :D

If you like lighter, rosier colours and a bit of shine on your eyelids, this palette is for you. Don’t think you’d be able to create a very dramatic look with this set of colours, but great for subtle, every day looks.

Ps. It’s an extra bonus point that all the naked eyeshadow brushes that come with their palettes are to die for, seriously!!

Tips: Great if you’re just starting out with makeup, as you can’t go too wrong with lighter colours in my opinion. :)

Urban Decay Naked 3

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this palette!

My skin suits rosey, neutral tones so this palette is a dream for me. This is my go to palette for everyday use and was my first ever Urban Decay purchase!

The shades in this palette are a great mix of lighter and darker shades, mattes and metallics. It works for both day and night makeup looks. The eyeshadows themselves blend nicely and are reasonably pigmented yet allow you to build up the colour to your desired intensity. They seem to last all day on my skin with minimal smudging, but you can always use a primer to make sure it stays put all day!

Overall, this is a great palette for anyone like myself whose skin really suits rose/gold/brown tones. It is not cheap, but I have definitely got my use out of this palette.

Tips: Use a primer to make sure it all stays put all day! If travelling, grab it at duty free.

Great palette

There are no colours on this palette that cannot be used. They complement each other so well, and in my opinion they are well pigmented. I like subtle colours so they are great to blend as I don't want the colours to be so strong on my eyes. The brush is great too!! I use it almost everyday as I can pick and choose my colours for the day within the palette. With this size too it will last forever so it was a great purchase. :)

Tips: Get it at duty free or I think Mecca Maxima has great prices too.

Pinkish tones with a hint of brown

I purchased this palette about a year ago and I still have so much product left in it, I never used to be much of a fan of eyeshadow so I decided to invest in a decent neutral soft tone palette. I have used this almost on a daily basis as the colours are highly pigmented and easy to build your desired look fast and they all compliment each other very well. My skin tone has a slight yellow undertone so the colours work well on my light olive skin without looking over the top. I do find the lighter colours do not show up very well on my skin I do find they are not as effective compared to the darker colours. The colours range from a peachy / pink, rose gold and a few brown colours to choose from and some have glitter through them and others are neutral. The palette is worth the price as it lasts a long time even with daily use and you can create so many different looks with it. I would recommend this product to friends.
