Gold Smokey UD Naked Palette Eye Picture Tutorial

Get Naked!

Here's the look for the tutorial: golden brown smokey shadow

If you do not own one of the two Urban Decay Naked Palettes, do yourself a favor and INVEST in one ASAP! I personally own the first UD Naked Palette and I use it almost every single day! It's my go-to palette because the colors are flattering for every skin tone & eye color. Even when I concoct some wild, dramatic eye with a bunch of random colors, I use these more neutral colors to balance out the crazy (really grounds the entire look haha). Plus the shadows are stunning, highly pigmented, last long (with a primer of course), and even using mine every day, I've barely dented the pans -- this palette will easily last me a couple more years+

Everything I used for my eyes








The most beautiful Palette in the world: Urban Decay Naked Palette

Colors used: "Half Baked", "Smog", & "Darkhorse" (numbers = order used)
Bonus: you can use #4 "Virgin" as highlight color & "Creep" instead of black liner in crease

Let's Get Started:


Prep naked eyeballs with Urban Decay
Primer Potion all over lid

UD "Half Baked" all over lid with
Coastal Scents Classic Shadow Dome
Natural Brush

UD "Smog" in crease
Go about 3/4 of the way, don't apply dark
amounts of shadow all the way to tear ducts
Brush I used: Sephora Collection Classic
Rounded Crease Brush #13

UD "Darkhorse" in outer V of crease and
outer 1/3 of lid.
Continue using: Sephora Collection
Crease Brush #13



Add deep black eyeliner to outer corner
of crease (positioning shown here) &
blend out BEFORE it dries

Pencil I used: Sephora Collection Waterproof Jumbo Liner in "Black"

And blended out liner with my favorite tiny brush:
Coastal Scents Classic Small Natural

I like using a liner in this case because it is much more pigmented than a
matte black shadow, and a little easier to focus the black in one area





Blended liner into crease: yours may
not be this smooth the first time, don't
worry! I botched this the 1st time I tried      

Also add Lorac Baked Matte Satin
shadow in "Social" under brow bone

TIP: work in a circular motion working the liner into the crease first then soften any outlines from the liner. Move quickly - this Sephora pencil dries ultra waterproof


I also went back with a little more UD "Darkhorse" Shadow with Sephora Crease Brush #13 and blended over the black liner a little bit more 







Apply Sephora Collection Shadow in
"Wedding Day" (shimmery white) to
tear duct area & directly under eyebrow
(can replace with UD "Virgin" from
Naked Palette)

THEN: Set up your cat eye: carve out a
line with Q-tip + makeup remover. I
usually use a full Q-tip for each eye, use
it to remove all extra fall-out too

Line upper lid with Clinique Brush on
Cream Liner in "True Black"





Bust out your favorite pen liquid liner. Mine = Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in "Trooper"



Trace lower border of shadow,
starting from outside and meeting up
with lower lash line

Start from outer tip of first line and
connect down to upper lash line



Fill in the little triangle gap!
I layered the Clinique cream liner on
top again for a more matte deep black




Use angled shadow brush to apply
UD "Smog" along lower lashline
& UD "Darkhorse" layered over, keeping
this shadow on outer edge of lower lashline

Curl & coat!
You're done!!!

Benefit They're Real! Mascara
loads of separation & definition! Rich black pigmet, too
