so back in December, I was able to purchase the Urban Decay Naked Palette for a really great price, at $30!!
How THRILLING!
Ask me how many times i've used it? twice.
TWICE PEOPLE.
WHY? Well, i tried it when i first got it, i was so excited to smack on those glittery shades on to my lids. I was semi impressed with it then.
Then the second time was New Years Eve. I was less than thrilled the 2nd time around. I just suck at it. I can't get the color combos right. I'm that dumb.
I found a tutorial like two years ago using Mac eye shadows and i've been religiously using that routine since. Lids= Satin Taupe, Crease = Club and Highlighter = Blanc Type. and the Painterly paint pot as a primer. This really works for me.
Naked palette, not so much.
So help me! which color combos work best for those of you who have tried these shadows?? if i can't come up with a good combo soon i'm gonna sell it! literally, i swiped it two times. No joke.
have you ever purchased something you had such high hopes for and it just totally let you down?
I don't have the palette but I am thinking about getting it. My formula for a smokey eye is always the lightest color on the lid, then the next darkest color I sweep into the crease and onto half the lid, and then I use the darkest color in the corners and part of the crease.

I always watch YouTube videos to learn how to do something funky with my eye makeup. For NYE I did a smokey eye with navy blues and it came out really well. I never wear much makeup so I thought I looked like a drag queen, but everyone else seemed to like it.
