Neutral look using UD Naked Palette

Hey everyone! Today I decided to bust out my Naked palette and put together a look using only shadows from this palette!
Its backwards. Selfie fail!!!!
If you don't have this popular product already I definitely recommend it. It has everything you need to create beautiful neutral looks day to day (not to mention the shadow quality is amazing!)
As with any eyeshadow look, you should first prime your eyelids. I used UD primer potion in 'sin' to add a little extra sparkle to my look.
First you're going to want to use a fluffy brush and place the color 'Naked' in your crease. This matte color makes blending much easier later on and provides dimension to your eyelid.

Next pat the color 'Sin' all over your lid with a flat shader brush going all the way to your crease. This pretty pink is so shimmery and reflective. It's a great all over lid color.

With the same fluffy brush you used earlier, blend 'Buck' into your crease on top of 'Naked.' This is a matte medium brown color that works perfect as a crease color. It darkens up your crease perfectly.


Next use the color 'Virgin' as your highlighter. Use a flat brush that can pick up plenty of color to place this light color under your brow bone and on the inner corner of your eye. This brightens up your eye and adds some contour to your brow bone structure.

The final touch is to use the color 'Sidecar' and with the same fluffy brush you've been using, place this color just on the outer corner of your lid. You can go a bit above the crease with this color. It should blend really easily into the browns that you've placed in the crease earlier! I added some black eyeliner and mascara after this step to finish the look.

This look is great for day to day wear or on a date night. Its neutral but has a little bit of purple/pink added in for extra flair...I think its a bit more fun than your standard brown look!
Let me know if you try out this look and also let me know what your favorite color combinations are in the Naked palette!

Have a wonderful day!
