Unless you truly have been living under a rock or on a remote island in the Pacific, you’ve heard of the Urban Decay Naked Palette – a palette full of pigmented bronze neutral shades to suit literally millions worldwide since its original debut in 2010.
It’s been awhile since the OG and I had some time together, and knowing so many own this palette, I thought it was time for an Urban Decay Naked Palette revival by whipping up five easy Urban Decay Naked Palette looks for more grown up times these days.
As a bonus, all five looks can be achieved using just two eye brushes. Let’s get naked (only if you feel it helps you apply your makeup better, of course)…
To keep things extra simple, the application technique in all of the looks is the same. Use a pinched fluffy brush like this one to apply the main lid color, use a fluffy blending brush like this one to apply color to the crease and if needed, use the darkest shade again with the pinched fluffy brush. Pinch that same brush to smudge any color on the lower lash line. Get your Naked Palette ($54) from Sephora here.
