Naked 3 Palette Tutorial


I created this look using the Naked 3 Palette by Urban Decay. The palette has so many pretty pink and rose-gold colors that could be used for both daytime and nighttime looks.

Hope you all enjoy!!!

Step 1. Prime the eyes and place a piece of sticky tape on the outer corner of the eye to create a nice straight line...almost like a cat eye !




Step 2. Combine the shades "Limit" and "Nooner" on a blending brush and sweep the shades through your crease.




Step 3. Use a shader brush and apply "Dust" on the inner corner of your eye and around your tear duct.








Step 4. Using that same brush, pick up "Buzz" and press that on the middle of the lid and also the outer corner of your eye.












Step 5. You can use the same brush again or pick up a smaller more defined brush to next, put the shade "Blackheart" on the outer corner of your eye in a V shape. A trick for this step is to not pack on so much of the color on your first try. Take a little of the eyeshadow each time to help build up and intensify the eye look.  

Step 6. Now it's time to remove the tape gently and go back to the original blending brush and just blend to make sure there aren't any harsh lines. 

Step 7. Use a detail brush and put the color "Nooner" on the inner part of the lower lash line. Then pick up the color "Blackheart" and blend that into nooner on the outer half of the lower lash line. 

Step 8. Use a clean shadow brush or highlighting brush to highlight under the brow, or the brow bone, with "Strange."

Step 9. Finish off the look by lining your waterline and popping on some mascara!!


** To intensify this look, line the lid of your eye and pop on some fake lashes for a bolder look!! ** 
** To get more color out of the shadows, use either eye drops or Mac Fix+ to wet your brush before placing it in the shadow. This allows for more color playoff on your eyes!! **
