Hi hi!
A couple of weeks ago (3 Feb 2013), I had the chance to take part in a bloggers makeup demonstration featuring the URBAN DECAY Naked Palettes. I was there together with Joey and Mag. It was a fun event, quite relaxed as we got to bring along our own model friends to do the demonstration. I brought along my sister - Beverley, and re-created her everyday look using the NAKED 1 palette, while Joey did a soft smokey look on her friend, and Mag did a more dramatic smokey look on her friend.
I had done makeup on other friends and relatives for random dinners and events before, but it was my first time doing makeup on someone else so openly, so naturally I was a little nervous... though having my own sis as my model makes it easier, and doing the demo together with Joey and Mag couldn't have been better. And fortunately I am already quite familiar with Urban Decay products, so it was easy for me to plan what to use on my sister.
Many thanks to anyone who actually made their way to the event, and especially to my girlfriends who went to support us, took lots of pictures, Amy, Jerlaine and Claudia, plus my cousin etc etc... Thank you Thank you!
Just want to share with you the pictures from the event, courtesy of Amy & Jerlaine who took most of the pictures, and also thanks to Joey for sending us the pictures from her camera.
A quick OOTD pic I posted on instagram before the start of the event:
Wore a black skull top from Zara, black pants from GAP, YSL Arty, T&Co. necklace, I am wearing Laura Mercier Lavender Cloud on my nails.

My sister prior to the start of the event. Setting up the little counter, and picking out the items which I would be using. It was a little nerve wrecking. Hehe. She had already done her base and brows at home.

A quick Q&A before the start of the demonstration. I just realised what a lot of hand movements I tend to make as I am talking. :o

During the demonstration, and all of us hard at work! I kind of wanted to finish up as soon as I could. Heheh.

I used Urban Decay F-Bomb saturated lip pencil on her lips. I probably applied 2 layers, blotting in between each layer.

And a group shot post event:

and some pictures which were snapped by Jerlaine using our iphones:



and a collage of the photos we got taken at the post event 'photobooth'.

all in all, it was quite a fun experience, and thanks to Sephora and Urban Decay Singapore for organising the event!
I also received a goodie bag for being part of the event, shall share with you all soon!
Thanks for reading!

Hi!
I did a look with the Urban Decay Naked Basics palette today - if you are a matte shadows lover, you need this palette! I went for a soft smokey look, with a pop of color on the lower lids. Love the end results. The matte browns are very outstanding, though I wish the lighter shades have more variety, cos I can imagine how they might not really show up on some skintones..
The formula and consistency of these shadows are impressive. They adhere to the eyelids very well, and the minor fallout I experienced isn't much of a problem in my application.

Colors used:
1. I applied on the brow bone - Venus - to softly highlight the area, using a fluffy brush. The color went on smoothly and I like the satin finish.
2. I applied the crease color next - using NAKED 2 - this gives the eyes some definition before I apply my lid color. I really like this color, it is kind of like MAC Omega & Wedge that sort of matte blending colors - I used a larger fluffy brush for this step.
3. On the lids, I used Faint - it is a very rich brown darker than it looks in the pan after I applied on the lids. There was some fallout with this color, but I dusted off the fallout with a face brush. I layered it on to intensify the color.
4. I used a gel liner to define my eyes. And then set it with Crave, a super jet matte black. This step is optional, but I just wanted to try out the color.
5. I tight lined my lower lids with Urban Decay 24/7 glide on shadow in the color Rehab, and further down my lower lids, I used a teal metallic liner to give the look an 'interesting' touch. Teal liners seem to be really in this Spring, apart from all the girly pinks.

this entry features the latest in
Urban Decay's NAKED installment - the BASICS palette. It contains 6 shades, 5 of them matte and 1 has a satin finish.It contains
Venus - off white with satin finish
Foxy - milky warm off white matte
WOS - milky creamy slightly pink off white matte
NAKED 2 - creamy light brown matte
Faint - creamy medium brown matte
Crave - jet black matte
I find that this palette fills the gap between both the NAKED palettes - the matte gap. If you have all three, I think you are pretty set for life in terms of neutral eyeshadows in various finishes.


Swatches - swiped heavily with my fingers, no base.
The formula is amazingly smooth and creamy. Needless to say, they are all extremely pigmented. There are some loose powder bits flying about as I swatched them, but I used the palette in a LOTD entry, and there wasn't much fallout, fortunately.
This is a seriously good matte palette - superb for blending out colors, contouring and so on. I will be using it in an LOTD entry coming up soon.
