Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Eye Shadow Palette Review

When it comes to eye shadow many of us enjoy bright bold hues, shimmers, glitters and flashy metallics but every girl needs a set of basics in her collection. When you have the fundamentals you can highlight, blend, sculpt, shape and transition like an artist and the shades in the new Naked Ultimate Basics Palette helps bring everything together for optimum cohesiveness and professional results.  

The palette has a sleek, sturdy gold case with large mirror and double-ended brush plus you get 12 all-new must-have neutrals!

When it comes to shade selection this palettes has a lot of great options ranging from soft tones, mid range hues and deep contour colors with cool and warm undertones. Every shadow has a nice matte finish which is preferable when using these particular shades and they are quite buildable which provides versatility.

Although the top row may have one too many cream shadows for my taste, there is still a well rounded array including: jet black, reddish-brown, burnt orange, grey, taupe, two neutral mid-tone browns and more!

The rich, buttery texture has the perfect hint of creaminess for seamless blending and the pigmentation is highly saturated with the ability to layer full-coverage should you choose to showcase their full potential. I also like that you can achieve a nice fade on the darker shadows for smokey effects and I had no problem with creasing or fading.

If you are looking for a great collection of neutrals to compliment a wide variety of palettes in your collection this one is great quality and very useable. It retails for $68.00 At Sephora, Shoppers Drug Mart, sephora.ca and urbandecay.ca.
