Beauty Product Reviews
Better than Urban Decay's Naked.
I bought Naked when it first came out and I was in love. I purchased Urban Decay’s Naked for $39 at Ulta. It contained 1fl.oz of product. I purchased Revlon’s Nearly Naked at Target for $7.45 and it contains 1fl.oz of product. When Nearly Naked came out I was doubtful that Revlon would deliver the same results, but not paying $39 for a foundation would be great. Personally, I loved Naked because it got rid of the redness on my face, and it even covered my freckles. With Naked I noticed it does not provide enough coverage to my blemishes as I would like. Naked also claimed to be “stackable”, however, I found that was not the case. Maybe I just didn't try hard enough, because I don’t like to cake my foundation. Another issue I have with Naked is its wear time. I found that it would only last for a few hours or so before I need to reapply or touch it up. When I tried Nearly Naked, I was very impressed. It had the same coverage regarding evening my skin tone out. In addition to this, it covered my blemishes. I noticed a difference regarding its weight tough, I knew that I was wearing it where as with Naked I would forget I had it on. The wear time of Nearly Naked impressed me, it seemed to last all day. Bottom line, I feel that at this point, that buying Naked is just paying for the label and the pump. Both products are good, but personally I think I prefer Revlon’s Nearly Naked.
I love it!
I went to a Urban Decay workshop and a professional helped me apply this palette and achieved a beautiful smokey eyed look. I bought the palette and when I took it home, I ended up blending the colors incorrectly and they all looked very grey and dark and blahish. After practicing, I got the hang of it, but really you have to be careful when applying these colors. Overall its a great palette and I love Black Dog! Its such a highly pigmented black,probably the blackest black I own.
