Naked palettes for every day!


Bonjour mes belles!!! I hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day with your beaus <3 or if you didn't celebrate, I hope you are happy and healthy and your week is going great! My week has been busy as heck, as February is always a really big month for me. Not only is there Valentine's Day, but every single important person in my life was born in this month, so the celebrations are endless and I literally don't have any days to myself--not that I am complaining! February is great and I love every single Aquarius in my life :)) During this hectic time, my makeup routine is usually very quick and simple for every day, and this is where my beloved Naked & Naked 2 palettes have come in very handy. The 2 looks I'm featuring today have been my transitional day-to-evening makeup ensembles, and I've been wearing them to various casual & semi-casual functions.



Read on to see my looks!!!



LOOK #1: Mauve-n-mellow smokey
This casual mauve smokey eye is simple enough for work / school and can certainly play its role in the after-hours when paired with a pretty glossy lip and big earrings. To get this look, I used solely the Urban Decay NAKED 2 palette and black mascara, and the eye look took me no longer than 5 minutes to complete.
On my LIPS, I'm wearing:




     



    LOOK #2: Soft and velvety plummy definition
     
    This über wearable clean defined plummy eye look is matte, easy to wear, and can be quickly transformed for evening's wear with a pair of lash accents. For this look, I used 5 matte eye shadows from the original Naked & Naked 2 palettes:
    On my LIPS, I'm wearing:



     
    How do you wear your NAKEDS??


    bisous,

      1. *sigh* Can I say again how muh I love my UD Nakeds? Is it possible for me to love the sequel more than the original? I use it every day! I can't remember all that I used today but it's similar to your second look

        I love both these looks.

        PS. Damn right, i even found some great dupes for Salad Dressed, so i believe in cheap alternitives too. With that money i could have bought another Mac lipstick or an eyeshadow. Ehh, no looking back :/

        1. all mascaras are good when they're new haha... I never spend more than $10 on one, so the telescopic one is one of the ones I use on the regular :))

      31. It usually works out that way isn't it! A whole bunch of my good friends were born in November so I'm always out in November! Thankfully, my family is all spread out throughout the year so the celebrations are all evenly distributed :P You're looking as gorgeous as ever! Happy belated Valentine's Day my dear :)

      38. LOVELY! I got the NAKED palette for Valentine's day and I use it for work every day now!!!! I get lots of compliments, the shadows blend so nicely and the colours are awesome! I'm not sure why I didn't get it when it came out. Once my Sephora re-stocks, I think I'm getting NAKED 2 as well! It allows me to do a different look every day for work without getting bored of neutrals.
