Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette Review

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette Review

Good Morning! I’m happy to be able to finally show you the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette! This is the rosy toned neutral palette that will be released in early December 2013. Previously I only owned the Naked Basics palette, which I truly think EVERYONE should own because it has 6 awesome matte in it that are truly versatile and look great with vibrant shimmery eyeshadows. I felt like the Naked 1 and Naked 2 would go muddy on me, since browns have a tendency to do that and they just don’t look flattering with my coloring. I’m pleased to report that Naked 3 does not suffer from this muddy issue. In fact, I find the rosy neutrals to be quite flattering!

Packaging
The packaging is a metal case that’s sort of a rosy copper type color to me. It’s quite sturdy but feels lightweight enough to be comfortable for travel.

I did swatch all of the colors on top of Coastal Scents Shadow Worx Eyeshadow Primer.

Yes, I did two sets of swatches. I always hate my live swatches from videos. I feel like their quality is not as good as when swatched separately.

Value
For the price of $52 you’re getting 12 full size eyeshadows for $4.33 each. You’re also getting a  nice double ended brush, plus the 4 eyeshadow primer samples. If you like these colors, I think it’s an excellent value for the price.

 My Favorite Colors
Blackheart (like I even had to tell you that!), Darkside, Trick, and Strange

I love that these are all 12 new and unique colors. I’m especially happy to see shades like Blackheart and Darkside, because they’re perfect dark shades suited to my taste. On primer I got great wear out of these shadows. This is the formula that I know and love from Urban Decay.

So what do you think of the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette? Love it? Hate it? Let me know!

  1. la ho appena ordinata da sephora, non vedo l’ora che mi arrivi il pacco, sono una fanatica di UD e cerco sempre cose loro..peccato non spediscano in Italia

    brava ottima presentazione

  2. I skipped Naked 2, just didn’t care for such ordinary colors. but the Naked 3 is MINE. It was love at first site.

  3. Hiii …thanks for your info.., I’m fair-skinned and perhaps slightly yellow undertone, with brown eyes. Is this palette would be good for me or someone else?

    1. There’s a collection of rosey pinks and mauves to suit basically everyone. Brown eyes go with everything!

    2. I just did a look last night on my friend Krissy who has dark brown eyes and the colors looked great on her. I think this is a really flattering palette so it’s definitely worth you checking out.

  4. I, along with everyone else, am so excited for this palette! The shadows are just stunning!! I’m glad I didn’t get #2, because I totally want this one! Thank you for such a in-depth look at this palette, very detailed… I really appreciate it!

  5. Epic review! Thank you for all the beautiful swatches! 😀 I own Naked1. I am dying to get my hands on Naked 3! I have light gray eyes and very light skin so I LOVE pinky/rosy colors! They make my eyes so bright and make my whole complexion light up. I really wanted to buy this the day it came out.

    I was checking UD’s site every day for it and when I checked the day it came out it was already sold out. 🙁 Ulta & Sephora won’t give exact release dates, which is a huge bummer. I wish companies would give release dates in advance – I would have been online and ready to go if I’d known. I literally missed it by a couple hours. *so bummed* I hope so much I can nab it from Sephora or Ulta. And I hope it isn’t as crazy as Naked1.

    1. I’m so glad that you like it! UD didn’t have a solid release date because they were originally planning to release in December, but it got pushed up because of it coming out before the planned date. It will be back in stock soon, I’m sure!

  6. I love the last four shades, but I cannot let myself get this palette – I can’t pull off mauvey or pink shades on the lid, because they accentuate my eyelid veins and it’s not a healthy look 😛

  7. i love pinks and rose gold but sadly these types of colors never show up well against my skin tone </3 plus there seems to be less color versatility than previous nakeds. do you think this will affect the number of different combinations you can make?

  8. Ah I need this is my life & to add to my never ending palette pile! Such pretty colors! great review! 🙂

  9. I own every Naked palette because I have a palette problem :(. I will own this too, just waiting on the e-mail from Urban Decay. I want Buzz on my face (probably on my eyelids). Thanks for the thorough review!

    1. I don’t own 1 or 2 because I didn’t think they’d look good on me. This one, I feel looks good 🙂 There are always other palettes out there that will look great on you 🙂

    1. The first 2 work well as highlighters / inner corner colors. I think the 2nd 2 could work as crease or transitional colors on me. The last 4 are awesome 🙂

      1. My palette showed up today…so blown away by the last four shades! And the middle ones? I never would have guessed they would be this smooth. Fabulous palette overall.

        1. Yay! I’ve got a look planned with Trick. Yeah they’re all really good shades. I love Strange because it’s an easy color for me to use as a base shade on the browbone / crease, since i have hooded eyes

  10. Naked 1 was way too brown for me. Warm browns are not flattering on my skin at all (though everyone assumes they will be, because I am redheaded. Warm browns look like bruises on me. Naked 2 is one of my favorite things EVER, because most of the neutrals are cooler, more gray toned, & don’t do the bruise thing. I wondered at first about “rosy” neutrals, but wow. These look amazing, & I really can’t wait to try these out in store.

  11. Squeee! Can’t wait to get my hands on this palette. Also I love how you did a video – it was good to see them in action!

  12. I had no desire to get the earlier 2 Nakeds but these colors are really gorgeous. I love the rose gold tones and I am definitely going to be getting this one. Every color is just beautiful and the pale ones don’t look too white or chalky. Win!
