Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette ♥ Review and Swatches!

Urban Decay released a new Naked palette a few months back that is nothing like the two previous Naked palettes and let me just say I am in LOVE! This palette contains 12 new never-been-seen eye shadows that range from a pale pink to a matte black with red micro-glitter and each of these shadows have a beautiful rosy-hue. This palette retails for $52 and is available at urbandecay.com, Ulta, Sephora, Macy's and other beauty stores. When you purchase the palette it comes with a new Double-Ended Shadow/Blending Brush as well as an Eyeshadow Primer Potion sampler. The palette itself is a hard, pencil-holder inspired, tin case that is sturdy and travels well. The shadows are an assortment of gorgeous mattes to pearls to metallic finishes that are each highly pigmented and blend splendidly. Below I provided swatches to showcase how stunning each of these eye shadows really are. If you're in the market for rosy-hued eye shadows THIS is the palette for you; Urban Decay's Naked3 Palette. 

¤ Urban Decay Double-Ended Shadow/Blending Brush-

¤ Strange- pale neutral pink| matte-satin finish

¤ Dust- pale metallic pink| shimmer with iridescent micro-glitter finish

¤ Burnout- light pink peach| satin finish

¤ Limit- light dusty rose| matte finish

 

¤ Buzz- metallic rose| shimmer with silver micro-glitter finish

¤ Trick- light metallic pink copper| shimmer with tonal micro-sparkle finish

¤ Nooner- medium pink brown| matte finish

¤ Liar- medium metallic mauve| shimmer finish

¤ Factory- pink brown| satin finish

¤ Mugshot- metallic taupe| shimmer with slight pink shift finish

¤ Darkside- deep taupe-mauve| satin finish

¤ Blackheart- smoky black| matte with rosy red micro-sparkle finish

I love this palette so much that I can't help but to use it when I do my makeup, so needless to say, I have 3 makeup tutorials showing how versatile the palette is! Check them out here:
