NYX Butt "Naked" Eyes Palette






I purchased this palette on Haute Look for about $15, $10 less than it retails normally. I was really excited to find it on Haute Look because I had been eyeing and swatching it every time I went into Urban Outfitters. Now that I own it, I would say that it is worth every penny!

I have to admit, What I really fell in love with was the bottom part of the palette. The blushes, bronzer, and highlight powders are very pigmented and beautiful. My pictures don't even do them justice.

The eye shadows are quite nice too. A lot of them are matte shades but they are pretty pigmented. I really like the shimmery colors in the palette as well. When this originally came on the market, a lot of people speculated that this would be NYX's answer to the Urban Decay Naked palette, but this palette is completely different. The Naked palette is filled primarily with warm colors. This palette is pretty much all cool colors. There are also a lot more colors in this palette. However, I would have to say that the UD Naked palette has better quality eyeshadow overall.

At half the price of the Naked palette, I would say that the NYX palette is a good buy. Although the eyeshadow isn't quite as good, the colors are different enough that there won't be any repeats between the two palettes. If I had to choose one, I would go for the UD Naked palette because I believe it's a staple that everyone could use in their collection. This is a nice side addition though!

  2. I super love the shades!!! They all look light and warm which I usually prefer in my make up products. These kinds of shades when blended together brings out a natural look. This is definitely a must have in such a great deal.
