I finally got the already cult classic, the Urban Decay Naked Palette!  Super excited!!!  This palette came out I think in the summer of 2010, and it flew off the shelves like hot bread!! Folks are hawking it on Ebay for hundreds of dollars already.  Now, before I go any further…..

this palette is PERMANENT!

No need to sell your soul or anything.  Urban Decay has been having a hard time keeping this item in stock, sold out online or at Sephora.  So what’s so special about this palette?

LOTD: Using MUFE's Maize Gold

Hey!

So I am finally getting around to using one of the new Makeup For Ever Metal Effect Powders in #2, Maize Gold.  Brilliant burnished golden powder.  I had no problems using this colour.  Intense  pigmentation, finely milled, easy to use.  I paired it with one of the few matte pigments that I have, M.A.C. Smoke Signal from the Smoke Signals collection.  It’s a deep, burgundy, shimmer-free colour.  Quite original.

Anyway here’s the look…

Each character comes with it’s own storyline, colour scheme/collection and limited edition packaging.  An updated version of the colours used to create the characters.  There are also face charts that accompany each collection.  The packaging is glossy black with each character painted on in vivid colour.

The VV collection is huge, but fortunately quite a few of the products are repromotes or part of the permanent line.  There are also a few new products like the Magically Cool Liquid Powder, which is part of the Maleficent collection.  Of course the packaging is LE so that this will sell like hot bread on a Sunday morning!!! People have been buzzing about this since July so, uhmmm yeah, get it while you can.
