I'm a very fair blonde, and I've worn makeup since I was a very young teen. I also have a cosmetology license, so I have learned how to professionally apply makeup. This eyeshadow set is a very good one, if you're willing to pay the price! I'm not going to lie, you could buy a few different drug store brand eye shadows to achieve the same effects - but this set is very complete and good quality shadows.

I've been a heavy makeup wearer for well over a decade now, but lately as I approach my thirties it's occurred to me that it might be good to tone it down some as I age. I wear a lot of colorful shadows, but I wanted to try something a bit more sophisticated and mature. This set of eye shadows really does have the perfect tones to achieve the "naked eye" look, as it claims to. I'm not actually wearing less makeup, but it looks like I am! You can contour and accent the eye without your face screaming, "Look at me! I wear too much makeup!!!"

The applicator this set comes with is okay, I do wish they had included two applicators instead of just one (although it has two ends, one end has an eyeshadow applicator and the other is a brush for lining the eye). Considering this set has 9 colors, it would be nice to have more than one applicator! The box is chunky, too, not the type of makeup accessory you'd throw in your little makeup bag. It's best stored at home in a bathroom drawer. The "guides" it comes with, which demonstrates which colors to apply in order to achieve specific "looks", is a nice touch. I love being able to alternate between the matte eye shadows, or using the shimmery ones - or sometimes both! All of the shadows apply very well - In The Buff is especially nice as an under-eye brightener for someone as fair skinned as myself.

If you're willing to pay the money for this set, I'd say it is an excellent tool for your makeup bag if you want a versatile eye shadow set with which you can get both the natural or smokey eye look if you prefer. With that being said, there are also less expensive brands which carry very similar colors, and you could piece together your own set of "naked eye" shadows if you really wanted to. With Too Faced, however, you will get slightly higher quality. I've been very happy with how beautifully these colors apply.

This has some great colors. You don't really look like "naked" eye, but what would the point of that be? There is a great black that is very blendable and gives a very doe-eyed look when used properly. SEXY. This is a great product. It is cheaper at Sephora.

I love this palette and I use every single color in it. If you were traveling, you could grab this box and have all your eye shadow covered. I have fair skin and light green eyes (almost like the image on the front of the box) and this palette looks great.. yes even the black looks good when used the way they describe! Honestly, I can see these colors working on any skin/eye color combination, because they are so soft and neutral. I don't like eyeshadows that have a lot of glitter in them, and that isn't a problem here. There are a few in the set that have a shimmer to them, but I would describe it more like a pearl than "glitter" when applied. If you only want a matte look, you won't enjoy every single color in this box.

I love these colors. They last forever. I do however use a primer so that helps too. I like the color combinations. It's very versatile. Only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 is the package is kinda bulky. The magnetic closure is a plus. The instructional cards are great. I have modified them a little bit I am not a fan of using eyeshadow as liner. I have bought like 3 other sets of this brand. So no complaints.

This palette has 9 shadows in some very pretty shades. They are organized along 3 "looks" - Day, Classic, and Fashion - and come with 3 corresponding looks cards, but you can obviously create your own looks as well.

DAY
Soulmates: A pretty peachy beige with a touch of shimmer
I do: A purple-y mauve
Un-veil: A brownish matte purple

CLASSIC
Kiss the bride: light-medium matte pink
Cut the Cake: Shimmery lavender purple
First Dance: Matte eggplant

FASHION
bouquet toss: A matte green tending towards the lime
Honeymoon: Shimmery metallic gold (this one has glitter)
Ever After: A medium brown with small glitter and shimmer

My favorite colors in the bunch or Cut the Cake, Honeymoon and Ever After. When used with primer I get great pigmentation and great blending. I find the more glittery colors (my 3 favorites!) to be harder to work with in terms of fallout. I hold a tissue under my eyes when applying so I don't end up with glitter on my face. The hardest color to work with is Honeymoon due to fall-out. It's gorgeous though, so pat it on very carefully with a firm, flat eyeshadow brush (I use the Urban Decay Good Karma - it's the one that comes with the Naked Palette) while holding tissue under your eye.

My skin tone is olive, so purples, as much as I love them, aren't the best on me. I'm still experimenting with the palette. I love the Fashion look (with Soulmates as my highlight color) the best. The classic is lovely too. First Dance is nice and deep, so that look is great for a purple smokey eye.

All in all, this is a nice palette and has a good range of colors. It's probably best suited to people with cool skin tones (I have warm skin tones, which is probably why my best look is the Fashion look). For this reason, I don't reach for it as often as some of my other palettes. Pigmentation is good, though not QUITE up to the level of Urban Decay. Same with blending - colors blend well, but not QUITE as well as Urban Decay. I have some issues with muddiness if I'm not careful. Packaging is nice, sturdy, and fairly small, making it ideal for travel. It doesn't come with a brush (no biggie). All in all, this is a nice palette, but if you have warm skin tones, you may want to pass. 
 
Good:
- the matte white, pink, and soft green colors go on smoothly and are pretty (these are the large color blocks on the palette)

Bad:
- the glittery colors crumble easily and get glitter all over your face
- a lot of these colors don't work well for warm skin

I really wanted to love this, but it was just meh... and for the price, it should have been more!
