Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Tutorial

 

Happy Makeup Wars Monday! Today I’m sharing a Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Tutorial with you. All of us ladies in the Makeup Wars group have created tutorials with the Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics palette to help give you some ideas on how to use it. My look turned out to be much more brown than I anticipated, as Lethal went really brown on me today. I included multiple lip looks for you since this is a very neutral eye. As you know, I have very hooded eyes, so in the full face shots you’ll be able to see just how little of the crease color is visible on me.

For those of you who don’t know, all the colors in the Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Palette are matte neutrals. Blow has a very tiny bit of shimmer to it, but Urban Decay calls it a demi-matte. See my review.

Wearing NARS Stripped.

Wearing Makeup Geek Rocker Chick. Of the 5 Makeup Geek shades here, this is the only one that wanted to cling to dry patches.

Wearing Makeup Geek Beauty Queen.

Wearing Makeup Geek Cougar. This is a beautiful color, but I don’t like the name.

Wearing Makeup Geek Misfit.

Wearing Makeup Geek Tomboy. I think this is my favorite out of these 5. As I mentioned above, in these full face shots you can see  just how little visible crease I have because of my hooded eye shape. However, I love the winged out eyeshadow shape for elongating my eye.

Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Tutorial

1. After applying eyeshadow primer, set your eye with a base shade or setting powder. I used Lunatick Cosmetic Labs Setting Powder.
2. Pat Pre-Game on the inner lid and inner v and under the outer brow.
3. Use a pencil brush to apply Lethal to the outer v and continue the line along the lower lid and the bottom of the hood of the eye.
4. Draw a C shape inside of Lethal, along the outer edge of the upper lash line with Blackjack.
5. Use a tapered blending brush and start blending Blackjack and Lethal together.
6. With a fluffy blending brush, use Instinct to continue blending out Blackjack and Lethal in the crease. Blend towards the tail of the brow and then inwards towards the center of the crease. Also soften the lower lid with the blending brush.
7. Take a winged eyeliner brush, apply Blackjack in a thin line along the upper lash line.
8. Use an exact blending brush, blend the lower lash line, blending outwards towards the tail of the brow.
9. Line the lower waterline with Smashbox Bare, then set with Blow.
10. Highlight at the inner corner and under the outer brow with Makeup Geek Celestial. Use a large blending brush to blend gently all over one last time.
