I recently came across the W7 "In The Buff Palette" for the bargain price of just £6. I've read about this palette being a dupe for the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. As I'm not yet willing to part with my money for the Naked palettes, I knew this baby was coming home with me.
This palette contains both shimmery and matte shades, my favourite of which are Camel - a rich gold - and Wave - a shining brown.
Though visually stunning I find that the shades are not particularly long lasting and tend to crease somewhat throughout the day. But 12 shades for £6 is a bargain and as long as you're not expecting the colour to last all day (plus evening).
With this palette you do get a wide range of colours that will appeal to anyone lusting after the Naked palettes for barely a fraction of the price. The neutral shades are sure to compliment any eye, whether you're just getting into makeup or hitting the town on a Friday night, this palette has the perfect combination of neutral and smoky looks. I definitely recommend using a primer and a base before use.
The palette comes in a stylishly strong metal tin that serves to protect them from accidental drops. It also comes with a double ended brush, one side is a sponge applicator and the other side is dual fibre brush. I do however prefer using my other brushes over this one.
Overall, this is a great palette for the price and I defo recommend it, so if you see it, get it. It's great for creating a subtle smokey eye.
Below is a photo of the look I went for. Bare in mind I took this photo at the end of the day & I had a major attack of hay fever - crazy watery eyes!!!
