Hey everyone!
I got the natural eye palette a while back, and its about time for a review! It took me a bit longer to write this post because I actually grabbed my Nude'tude, naked 1 and naked 2 palettes and did a little swatch party to find perfect matches.
As for the actual palette, I think its a great palette to have if you are a collector of neutral palettes. Too faced shadows are great quality, very pigmented and not too powdery, but I have obviously found that the colors aren't very unique.
The packaging okay, but as a collector of eyeshadow palettes, I feel like a different choice would be better for space saving, but otherwise there isn't any glaring issues with it. It does come with a few instructional looks which is a cool idea, but I normally have to play around with the colors myself because they tend to be geared towards people with fair to medium complexions.Another interesting thing about this palette is that some shades are larger than others, and they split the colors up based on the Day, Night and Fashion looks. Not a terrible thing, but I wouldn't have necessarily liked that. I probably would have been just a tad bit happier if all of them were the same size.
At first glance, I could already take a guess that a few shades can be duped. So I had the idea to actually go through and find a match with some of the popular neutral palettes that are commonly purchases. I chose Naked 1, 2 and Nude'tude.
Surprisingly enough, All shades were found a nearly identical match, most coming from the naked1 palette.
So far, I have found these to be the closest dupes. I will post up comparison pictures as soon as I redo all the swatches for pictures. :)
heaven= foxy (naked2)
silk teddy =bootycall (naked2)
nude beach = sidecar (naked1)
velvet revolver = naked (naked1)
sexspresso= darkhorse (naked1)
push up= toasted (naked1)
erotica = hustle (naked1)
honey pot = half baked (naked1&2)
cocoa puff= no exact dupe, but a cross between silly and sexy (nude'tude)
How do I feel about the shades?
I like heaven as a browbone and inner corner highlight. Its matte so it makes a great subtle highlight. Velvet revolver makes a great crease color. And push up is a gorgeous all over lid color. I did not care for nude beach at all because I found it to be like a pressed glitter. The others were okay as well, but nothing to crazy.
Do you have this? Would you get this?
