I'm a really big fan of Urban Decay and any natural or nude toned cosmetics. I'm an NW10 babe, so light neutral tones are my bae. After purchaseing my beloved original Naked palettte, which had become an essential in my beauty bag, I knew that the next eyeshadow purchase that I bought had to be the Naked 3 palette.
'Encased in a mesmerising rose-gold metallic case, this carefully crafted selection of rose hued eyeshadows allows you to create endless sultry eye looks' - MECCA
Packaging
Like all Naked palettes, Naked 3 comes in a gorgeous pink-tones box with rose-gold lettering and swatches of the shadows on the pack of the cardboard packaging. Did I mention that this palette also includes a double-ended brush? Amazing! One end of the brush is for applying shadows whilst the other is for blending. The quality of the brush i brilliant, so you won't be disappointed. What I really like about this packaging is that the brush has its own space to sit within, which is perfect for when you're travelling or on the go.
Bonus: You also get four samples of the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion with the purchase of any Naked palette, which contains a weeks worth of primer. Samples include the Original UD primer, Eden, Sin, & Anti-Ageing.
Shades & Finishes
Urban Decay's Naked 3 palette comes with twelve rose-toned coloured shades, arranged from lightest to darkest. Finishes include: matte, satin, shimmer & sparkle. Shades and their finishes in this palette include:

| From L - R: Strange, Dust, Burnout, Limit, Buzz, Trick, Nooner, Liar, Factory, Mugshot, Darkside & Blackheart 'Meticulously crafted using the patented Urban Decay Pigment Infusion System, the velvety formulas glide across the lid without grabbing, pulling or creasing and can be layered as desired to deliver a seamless, stunning eye look' - MECCA Formula & Pigmentation
It's amazing. I've had no issues with fallout from this palette and all colours have applied smoothly and evenly. Pigmentation is also brilliant with each colour. All of the shades are very easy to build-up or blend out to suit. Overall, the formula and pigmentation is to die for!
Affordability & Retailers
You can purchase your own Naked 3 palette from Mecca, however it does come with an $83.00 price tag. Prices at Mecca do increase or decrease from time-to-time depending on the USD- v AUD exchange rate.
Final Verict
When I first saw this palette I was in love. I thought it was the bee's knees and that it would be as brilliant as the original Naked palette. Unfortunately that isn't so. I've found that I don't often reach for this palette, unless I'm doing a cut-crease look. If Urban Decay could do anything to improve this palette, I would suggest adding some additional mattes, particularly some blending and transitioning colours for us NW10 girls. Hey, a girl can dream.
