// NAKED

Ok, so i'll admit it, I'm not a huge beauty fan. I don't invest a lot of money in beauty products like most of you probably will. (IKR, Weird!)But recently, I've been reading more and more beauty posts on blogs and i've found myself actually really enjoying them! So even though this is completely new to me and I don't know much about the beauty industry at all. i'm going to do my first ever beauty post and talk about two of my new products!(SCARY!!)The first product I want to talk about it the Urban Decay NAKED Basics Palette. Now, I don't often wear eye shadows but have owned the Urban Decay NAKED palette for a while now and often wear it on nights out. A few weeks ago, everyone at work was talking about the new NAKED Basics palette so i thought i'd try it. This pallette, unlike the other, features matte and satin shades. Recently, on the blog posts that I've been reading, alot of people have been saying the palette is either uninspiring or boring. Personally i love it! For someone who doesn't often wear any eye makeup except mascara, i think this is the perfect everyday palette. I mean, its all in the name really, 'BASIC'. What more could you ask for? The soft subtile colours blend in with most skin tones, and the darkest colour 'CRAVE' is perfect over liquid eyeliner as it reinforces the liner for a dark dramatic statement eye look. I can honestly say I'm really happy i purchased this product! URBAN DECAY NAKED BADICS PALETTE - £21 DEBENHAMS COLOURS - VENUS, FOXY, WALK OF SHAME, NAKED 2, FAINT AND CRAVE.
The second product i want to talk about is the REVLON, ColourStay Mineral Finishing Powder. I SWEAR BY THIS PRODUCT, the only problem is, the line is discontinued. I buy this product from a small independent makeup store in Newcastle, and I'm really considering stocking up as i don't know what i would do if i ran out. This product is amazing. I use this as an everyday Bronzer. Some people have said MAC have a similar mineralising finishing powder but most MAC Products aren't in my price range at the moment. I love having that golden bronzed look and this is just amazing. I know i'm not giving a really good analysis of this product right now but i just cant put it into words how amazing this product really is. The only negative i have is that the powder has quite alot of shimmer in, so you have to be careful not to apply too much. It looks really great on a night out and you can also use it on your arms and legs too. So if you come across this amazing find, then don't just walk buy, pick one up!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
