Urban Decay Naked On The Run is Coming!!!

Hey beaut's!

On Saturday afternoon I was just casually browsing through my Instagram feed, ya know as you do, and all of a sudden I saw a picture of something absolutely stunning that had been posted by Urban Decay... Yup, they've gone and done it again and added something else to the ever growing Naked franchise, say hello the the Naked On The Run Palette. 
The new Naked On The Run palette is actually more like a little makeup up kit because it contains more or less everything you'd need to complete an entire look (minus foundation and abit of concealer of course he he), the kit is made up of five neutral toned eye shadows, no shade names have been released yet but I'm hearing that theres one shade from each of the NAKED palettes and one from each of the Basics palettes. You also get a blush/bronzer combo, a highlighter, a travel size liner in Stag, my all time favourite mascara Perversion and a Naked lip gloss which I also believe are both in travel size. 
I'm not 100% sure on the UK release date yet, all I can find so far is that it will be available in the US on December 1st online and December 4th in-stores at Sephora and will retail for $54.00 which is around £34.00. The kit/palette is going to be Limited Edition so once they sell out (which will probably be instantly) they'll be no getting them again or it will just be an absolute pain to find them again.
As soon as Urban Decay released all the pictures I just had to feature them as I'm so excited about this palette, probably as excited as I got this time last year for the Naked 3 Palette. I honestly think for us in the UK it will be released right before Christmas and if it isn't pre-ordered it wont arrive in time for Christmas, I hope more information is released soon as I certainly want to add this to my Christmas list ha ha.

Are you excited about the Urban Decay Naked On The Run Palette?? Will you be buying it??Let me know beaut's!

Urban Decay NAKED Basics Palette Review

Urban Decay NAKED Basics Palette £20

I'm super excited to review this palette being the huge Urban Decay fan that i am. The Naked Basics is a cute little palette with 6 neutral matte eye shadows, so if your into your matte eye shadows and your neutrals this is definitely the palette for you. The palette is quite slim and small with a rubberised finish to it and has a good sized mirror inside the lid, out of all the Urban Decay palette's this is my favourite packaging as the other palettes tend to be quite large so aren't so easy to travel with or carry around in your make up bag for touch ups during the day, but this little beauty is pocket sized id say. 

Two of the shades in this palette are available in other Urban Decay palettes but the other four are brand new shades. The only semi matte shade in this palette is Venus (the lightest shade in the palette) it has a slight pearly shimmer to it which is fabulous to highlight the brow bone or the tear duct area. What i love about this palette is that the shades can simply take you from day to night, you can use your lighter colours in the palette for the day time and then smoke it up at night with the darker colours, the colour 'Faint' is also great for my eyebrows too.

Colour Description:

Venus: An off white shade with a slight shimmer. NEW!
Foxy: A matte light yellow/creamy colour.
Walk of Shame: A very light nude colour also matte.
Naked 2: A taupe matte colour. NEW!
Faint: A matte dusty brown. NEW!
Crave: A deep dark matte brown/black. NEW!

Without flash.

With flash.

All the shades in this palette are highly pigmented, super soft to the touch and easy to work with, as the formula is so super soft they're really easy to blend and stay in place on the eyelids all day, i have super oily eyelids so i do use a primer or a base so i can get longer wear out of the shadows but i have tested this palette out without primer and the shadows lasted a good 6/7 hours which i thought was amazing.

Overall i really do love this palette, i think it super affordable considering its a high end makeup product, its great for travelling and the eye shadows are super good quality.

Have you got this beauty of a palette?? What did you think??

MUA Undressed Eye Shadow Palette Review

Hey girlie's!!!! After using the MUA Undressed Palette recently i couldn't wait to tell you how much I'm in love with it. As i walking into Superdrug i spotted that we finally had the MUA Professional range in, i cant tell you how long I've been waiting for this to come into my local Superdrug store, as i was browsing i noticed how similar the Undressed Palette was to the Urban Decay Naked Palette and as it was an absolute bargain of £4 i thought why not buy it and give it a go.




The palette contains 12 eye shadows in total, 2 matte shades and the rest is made up by a  mixture of pearl, shimmer and metallic shades. The pigmentation of the shades in this palette are all amazing, there isn't 1 shade that isn't highly pigmented. The lasting power is also great i never had to retouch my eyeshadow all day, i found the eye shadows really easy to blend and to work with, the one thing i did find was when applying these shadows i did experience a small amount of fall down even after tapping off excess shadow off of my brush but it was nothing i couldn't fix with a bit of foundation and concealer. I will insert a picture of the swatches i done, unfortunately the shades don't have names so its just a case of them being shade 1, 2 and so on.

Shade 1 is there it's just a very light shade and my arm is pale here.



As you can tell from the swatches the shades really do resemble the Urban Decay Naked Palette and the quality is just as good and just as the 'Naked' Palette it can take you from a day look to a evening look really easily. On the back of the packaging it does give you what they call a 'mini master-class' of a look you can create with these eye shadows but to me the list is endless and the colours in this palette are right up my street. All in all I'm super impressed with this little palette and id recommend it to everyone, its so nice to find a real good quality eye shadow palette that doesn't break the bank, you can get your palette from  Superdrug only i believe as MUA are exclusive to them.

Much Love Hayley xXxXx

My Most Worn #2

Since my first 'My Most Worn' post is my most popular post so far i thought i would come back for round 2. As i said in my last post these are things that i wear the most, use the most and repurchase the most. To me these little gem's are worth every penny an i must admit i certainly get my moneys worth.



My Most Worn......

Eyeshadow Palette

This is my rather battered and bruised Urban Decay Naked Palette, i got this palette about 2 years ago and its become a staple in my every day makeup routine and as you can tell its very well used. I love the fact it can take you from day to night, from something subtle to something smokey, the shades are right up my street and the pigmentation is great even the lasting power is amazing. I will put all the shade descriptions below going from left to right:

Virgin: A satin champagne shade. Great for using as a highlight, I've hit pan on this shade.

Sin: A gorgeous warm shimmery champagne colour, I've also hit pan on this shade.

Naked: A matte Nude .

Sidecar: A coppery champagne colour with a hit of rose gold shimmer to it.

Buck: A matte soft brown.

Half Baked: A very pretty gold colour, kind of like MAC Amberlights.

Smog: A metallic bronze.

Darkhorse: A deep metallic brown.

Toasted: A reddened champagne.

Hustle: A deep metallic taupe.

Creep: A shimmery black. 

Gunmetal: A deep shimmery grey.


Brows Palette

This is my beloved HD Brows Palette in 'Foxy', i received this palette in a Glossy Box a long time ago and at the time i never even bothered filling in my eyebrows as i didn't think it made much of a difference to me however, after playing around with this palette i was converted into using it everyday to fill in my brows ,as you can see I've hit pan on my brow colour ' Ash Brown' as its 100% the correct colour for my brows and makes them look natural and full. This palette also doubles up as an eyeshadow palette which is great as you can make a really nice soft smokey eye out of this, all round i couldn't live without this baby.


Jeans


Jeans have always been a massive problem for me as I'm quite short with a curvaceous figure  and have never been able to find that pair of jeans that just fit me correctly let alone being nice and comfortable, because of this I've always lived in leggings and jeggings or worn awful jeans that do nothing for my figure. One day when i was out shopping with my mum i decided to pop into Topshop and just have a quick look at their jean section, my mum convinced me to try some of the Leigh jeans on and like usual i had the ' they wont be any good ' attitude, as i started to try them on i honestly couldn't believe it, they where perfect. I love the fact you can shop for your leg length and your waist size in inches, they are a super soft lightweight denim and have a cute little turn up hem at the bottom, they are £38 a pair but are worth every single penny. I love them.

I hope you enjoyed another instalment of my most worn treasures, i will be doing more of these type of blog post's so be sure to check them out too.
