Day to Night: Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette

Hey guys! So, lately I've been obsessed with the naked 3 palette, I've been wearing it allll the time. When Urban Decay had released this palette everyone and their mother were dying to get it. I had tried ordering it online about 3 times but it was always sold out!!! Like within half an hour this palette would sell out. I was so mad. But finally sephora had some in stock on their website and I immediately ordered it and have been obsessed ever since I got it in the mail. This palette comes in a range of beautiful rose gold shades; from neutrals to dramatic colours. In my opinion, this palette looks great on any skin tone and is perfect for day or night. So, I wanted to share this look i came up with! 

Tools: #242 shader brush from M.A.C, #217 blending brush from M.A.C, and #224 large blending brush from M.A.C

Products: Naked 3 Palette, M.A.C Paint Pot in Laying low, Nars eyeliner stylo in Carpates (black), M.A.C prolongwear pencil in definedly black, and Tarte Lights, Camera, Flashes mascara.
Procedure: So, first I primed my eyes with my paint pot (its really important not to skip this step so your eyeshadow can last all day beautifully without smudging or creasing). Then I took my #224 brush and the colour limit and blended that all throughout my crease in a windshield wiper motion.

Next, I took my #217 brush and the colour Nooner and focused that on the outer corner of my eye. I used circular motions to blend the colour on the outer corner and I slightly brought it inwards. Don't bring Nooner in too far or your eyeshadow might look too dark all over. 

Then I took the colour Burnout with my #242 brush and patted that all over my lid. The reason why you want to pat the colour all over your lid as apposed to swiping, is because you don't want fall out from the shadow. You also get the most pigmentation out of your shadow that way! I also took Strange with my #224 brush and swept that colour underneath my brow so accentuate my arch. You can stop at this step and throw on your liner and mascara to have an everyday look. To get a more dramatic, night time look I added the colour Darkside on the outer corner on top of Nooner to get a deeper crease colour. So same thing, I took my #217 brush, did circular motions and blended the colour. At this point I go back in with my #224 brush with no product on it and softly blend in my crease to marry all the colours together and make sure I have no harsh lines. 

So just throw on your favourite liner and mascara and afterwards you will want to take the colour Darkside once again and use the tip of your shader brush to smudge that on your bottom lash line to complete the look. Then you're good to go!

On the rest of my face I'm wearing my M.A.C Studio Fix foundation and set it with my Studio Careblend powder. As a contour I'm wearing Harmony Blush from M.A.C and Mocha from M.A.C for my blush. I highlight my cheekbones and nose with Albatros from Nars (seriously, my favourite highlighter EVER. It's a must have!) On my lips I'm wearing Oak liner from, you guessed it, M.A.C and Marc Jacobs Lipstick in the colour Moody Margot. I hope you all enjoyed this look I created and it inspires you to try this out for yourself. Enjoy! :)
