URBAN DECAY NAKED RELOADED PALETTE #TBT REVIEW

Sadly URBAN DECAY withdrew from the South African market during the
2nd half of 2020 and I for one was sad about it, as I was a fan of UD and have reviewed and 
loved many of their products.
My review on the NAKED RELOADED palette dates back to April 2019, so prices
will have changed.

~~~~~~

After several weeks of use, I've finally managed to put down into words my feelings about this 
"super hyped" eyeshadow palette.

Never a brand to follow the generic brand packaging norm, 
URBAN DECAY recently launched their NAKED RELOADED 
Palette and when it comes to the packaging, this cushioned fabric Orchid print palette not only 
looks trés chic, but it also feels weighty and very comfortable in the hand.


Sadly the birth of the new NAKED RELOADED followed the demise of the globally and much loved original NAKED Palette.
It was a sad moment for many URBAN DECAYERS, but thankfully it has been replaced with a
 collection of 12 "must have" universally flattering shades in a palette thats been designed for everyone
any age, gender, and skin tone.

If you're looking for a collection of flattering shades that will cover all your essential 
 nude/neutral/brown requirements plus a little extra, then this is the ultimate palette to have in your eyeshadow collection.
The selection includes soft mattes, satins, metallics and a little sparkly glitter is thrown in 
for good measure...

I'm also happy to report that UD have included 4 larger outer pans of the lighter shades,
that are used the most for highlighting and inevitably, on any eyeshadow palette, they always 
finish before the others.



After a couple of months of use I can excitedly report back that the formula of these shadows fall 
into that buttery, velvety texture with a rich colour payoff and are easy to blend and work with.
One piece of advise though - do ensure that you tap any excess shadow off you brush before 
application, as there will be shadow fall out, but its nothing that isn't easily brushed away with
 out leaving any pigment behind.

The longevity of the shadow was good with no creasing or fading, however I have become an
 unexpected and huge fan of the URBAN DECAY Eyeshadow Potion
to read my full review 
and without doubt it helps to keep your eyeshadows in place all day.

All of the 12 shades are very wearable and I have surprisingly found myself using 
all of the shades at some point, but reaching daily for the following ones:

Bribe
Barely There
Reputation
Burn
Distilled
Boundaries
&
Blur

 and for a slightly more evening,shimmery smokey eye look I just add a touch of:

Barely Baked
Angel Fire
End Game
&
Dreamweaver


It's known, here in south Africa, that UD Eyeshadow Palettes generally weigh in on the pricey side, usually around R800-R900, however the NAKED RELOADED weighs in at a much more 
appealing price of R695.
 This palette is not only worth its "Super Hyped" status, but its got to be
the NAKED Palette to own above all others.
