Urban Decay Naked 3 Photos & Swatches

This palette contains 12 neutral rose-hued shadows. There tends to be a bit of fallout with the glittery shadows, but overall they are pigmented and blend beautifully. Even though the shadows are more pink-toned they are still totally versatile and you can get a ton of different looks with a single palette.

A Few Current Favorites

Ibuki Refining Moisturizer - I got this in the Ibuki Ready for Anything Skin set from Sephora about a month ago, and I can't get enough of it. It smells clean (it is fragranced so if you are sensitive you may want to test it out in store if possible) and a little goes a long way. If you apply it really heavy-handed it can get a little sticky for daytime use, but otherwise it sinks in quickly. I think it has really been helping to calm my skin from the weird summer breakout situation I've been experiencing. I plan to do a more in depth post on the Ibuki line from Shiseido soon.

Sephora Favorites Draw The Line

A set of liquid and pencil liners available from the Sephora Favorites line at Sephora for $30 (USD).

Urban Decay Naked Basics

The Naked Basics palette is a mostly matte, travel-friendly neutrals palette from Urban Decay. I say mostly matte because the first color in the palette, Venus, is actually quite shimmery. It is basically a white version of Bootycall from the Naked 2.

Urban Decay De-Slick Setting Spray

During the warmer months my face tends to become a greasy disaster a few hours after applying my makeup. I always use primer and set with a powder, but that is no match for my oily t-zone that basically dissolves my foundation. Blotting helps, but it does remove at least some of my makeup. When I first learned about setting sprays, I was hesitant to spend money on something that I wasn't even sure would do anything to help. I finally did, and I'm so happy I did because it really does make a difference. It's not a miracle in a bottle, but it definitely adds some time to the life of my makeup.
