Ever since the first launch in 2010, the Urban Decay Naked Palette has definitely become somewhat of a craze in the beauty world. It’s not surprising as they are beautiful palettes packed with 12 stunning neutral based shades which can be used to create a variety of looks Naked 3 has just launched and I was lucky enough to get my hands on one before they make their appearance in stores on 16th December.
Read on for my full thoughts and swatches!
My favourites on first glance are Strange, Nooner, Mugshot, Darkside & Blackheart. Strange is a matte cream white shade which makes the perfect base for all eyeshadow looks and Nooner is another matte brown which a pinkish tinge which looks stunning in the crease of the eye. Mugshot and Darkside are stunning shimmers which when paired with Blackheart makes the ultimate smokey eye.
This palette has a rose tinted theme (the first palette was warm tones, the second cool) so this perfectly suits tan and bronze skin tones. I have never been one to particularly love pinkish toned eyeshadows for my pale skin but this palette really surprised me and I keep finding myself picking it up instead of my other palettes. The shadows themselves are gorgeous, creamy powders with great pigment which means you can really experiment with blending and coupling colours together.
I’m going to be creating a few different looks with this palette over the weeks to come so let me know if you’d like to see them!
The palette is available from tomorrow – 16th December in Debenhams, House of Fraser and Urban Decay online stockists for £37, but I have a feeling they might sell out quickly so act fast to get one!
Are you dribbling over this? What’s your favourite Naked palette?

Still slightly undecided about this one. I have and adore Naked 2 but think this could be a bit too rose toned. I need to go and have a play with it before I decide!
This palette is goregous, definetly on my christmas list this year! It looks like it would suit green eyes, like mine, really nicely 🙂 <3

I'm waiting to see this in person and swatch it! I have never been a fan of pink toned shadows myself but these look wearable 🙂
Thanks for the swatches! Looks like I'll need to get my hands on this one…
The Naked 3 palette looks gorgeous, I can't wait to see it in person. I still think I prefer the first naked palette since I like the warmer tones, but this one still looks amazing! Thanks for the review and swatches 🙂

This does look lovely but I think Naked 2 is still edging it for us! 🙂

I am a total fan of neutrals, but I don't like shimmer, so if I were to get Naked 3, I would only use like 3 shades.
I prefer Naked 2, because I'm cool toned, so it fits me a ton better.

I've managed to preorder one before they were all sold out and can't wait to get my hands on it. I've never experimented with rose-themed colours so I'm hugely excited, the colours look fabulous!
And I'd love to see what looks you're creating with them 🙂

I'm not too sure about this one either, I think it might be a bit too pink for me. I've tried using pink eyeshadows and it's all good but they only come out every once in a while so I don't think I'll be picking this one up xxxx

I love the warm, natural colors.
Love it! Love the colors for they will create different beautiful looks. I usually prefer these kinds of colors for they are light and natural on my skin.
This one would have to be my favorite 🙂 although I haven't tried it yet but the swatches look incredible. I will probably be getting it as soon as I manage to save the money for it haha 😀
Colors are amazing :))
looks amazing! so versatile
Lovely post, I want this so bad! You just made me want it more, the swatches look amazing!
I'm saving up 😀
