As-Salam-O-Alykum...Glam'Yees...Being an Urban Decay junkie. I have hoarded every Urban Decay Naked palette available, and their every palette launch announcement,i need to make up more space in my vanity.Urban Decay is adding the new Naked Smoky (aka naked 4) to its cult lineup of eye shadow sets, which already includes Naked 1, Naked 2 and Naked 3.
The three iconic Urban Decay eye shadow palettes—which reached cult status, famous for a range of elevated nudes that look good on just about everyone. Naked 1 was a bit more bronze-y, Naked 2 was more taupe-y, and Naked 3 was warm and rosy neutrals. Despite Naked's roots in natural-ish looks, this new Naked on the block is loaded with ALL the essentials for the perfect neutral smoky eye
Naked Smoky, you have a 12 shades range from a matte off-white matte powder to a deep, shimmering black.A complete range of neutrals — your basic matte shades, and then a mini collection of bronze, a mini collection of taupe, a mini collection of grays and blacks, and then this one eggplant.

I like this NAKED SMOKY palette, the best out of all the other Naked palettes they've created. It has a great balance of mattes, shimmers, a broader range of colors, and no glittery shadows .What are your thoughts on the Smoky release? Will you be picking up the Naked Smoky Palette?

Until next time,
Stay Gorgeous,
