How’re you guys doing? Not too bad I hope!
But here’s what I think, when life gets busy, itβs easy for a makeup routine to become, well, routine. Agreed! Thankfully, I got some mini haul products I ordered from Sephora recently that I’m excited to share here with all of you.
We fall back on our tried and true methods and take the easy route just make it out the door on time! Truth been said, let’s jump in to Urban Decay Smoky to proof my point or maybe not. Continue reading till the end to find out.
I was given this as a gift. I can’t say enough good things about this eye shadow. I am an eyeshadow lover and this is the best yet. Some of you might know me long enough to know that I’m addicted to all the Naked Palettes by Urban Decay.Β Not ashamed to admit it (whahaha!)
I wasΒ very excited to try thisΒ bad boy. Tell you this,Β “I’m in love with smokyΒ palette now”.
The first thing when I opened the box packaging is the clear casing which has a floating smoky effect withβNaked Smokyβ engraved in gunmetal foil.Β Itβs sturdy, streamlined, and doesnβt feel like it’s too bulky if you know what I mean.
Love the packaging and it comes with a full size mirror. A magnetic closure on the clear case, a double ended brush withΒ twelve great colorΒ eyeshadows. Nine are new colors whereasΒ the other three are repeats. I really likeΒ that it has a good mixture of natural and varieties of shades in this palette.
Included in this palette, there are instructions of 4 different smoky eyes tutorial tips. The instructions are very easy to follow. Distinctive smoky eyes from daytime smoky all the way to nigh-time smoky look.
It’s super easy to put on and it actually stays onΒ allΒ day. The quality is awesome and the outcome is amazing. I think you’re going to love it as much as I do.

I saw the video for Naked smoky eye palette and was frightened. Urban Decay took smoky eye to a new level. It appeared heavily pigmented. However, after reading your post, I feel I can relax. LOL http://www.fashiondues.blogspot.com
