I am aware the title of this post is quite, er, suggestive? I swear it's not.
I picked up this interesting looking palette yesterday at the Beauty Outlet at Castlegate in Leeds. I say interesting, because I don't know if you've noticed, but it looks suspiciously similar to the Urban decay Naked 3 palette. *wink wink* ;-)

Okay, I'm lying, I didn't pick it up because it looks like Naked 3. I picked it up because there is a shade of eye shadow in it called ALICE. And I get REALLY excited if I see things with my name on them. *sigh* it's a problem I have, luckily it may have paid off this time. I am really looking forward to trying all of these out, although i am very reluctant to hope that they are any where near as good as the UD Naked palette claims.
Now I have never tried the UD naked palettes, and I wont be doing so, or at least not unless I win the lottery or inherit loads of money. I can't justify the price, I know there are loads of you who can't either because school or college whatever just doesn't leave room for rolling around in money. Oddly enough, neither does having a job. So we are on this crazy mission to find the UD dupes together guys and gals.
We have from left to right in the Warpaint tin, (drum roll please), Latte, Angel, Venice, Marilyn, Copper Pot, Sun Kissed, ALICE, Bad Manners, Coffee Cup, Mud Slide, Tokyo, Fashionista. I feel like I should be gasping for breath after reading all of those. What I found slightly annoying is the sticker on the back of the Warpaint tin, the colours are in the opposite order on the sticker, which is easily rectified if you're not half asleep. (If you flipped the palette the Latte sticker would be where the Fashionista shade is). The colours also look different on the sticker too, I kind of feel like the colours on the sticker are pretty close to the UD Naked 3 shades, but in reality the shades inside are paler.

I've used a few Warpaint bits and pieces now, and I'm sort of in a love hate relationship with them. Their mascara is not bad, but their concealer was just ARGH NO. So this could go either way.
Have any of you tried the Warpaint In the Nude palette or any other UD Dupes and look alikes? Were they worth it? :-)
I have the w7 palette , but I have got in the buff version which is comparable to naked 2, also done a review on it. I love it :D enjoyed reading your review!!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you bought it because of a shade in your name! I did that with a bottle of coke.. I hate coke!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen the w7 palette, I'll have to keep my eye out. I like your writing style too :)
I hate coke too! I once bought three bottles with my name on them from Asda, hehe they sat proudly in the cupboard for ages. So glad I'm not the only one that hates coke! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you :-) I only started to notice them recently, I wonder if they'll be appearing in superdrug or something soon? They have tons of stuff, :-) x
I got their foundation from B&M bargains (my fave) but they don't seem like a Superdrug kinda brand :(
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Superdrug, my local have a new brand called Revolution out - they have tons of eye shadow palettes! Go and see if your has it too!
hwrigbhlabih I love B&M bargains! I would never have thought to look there for it, hmm, will keep my eyes peeled. :-)
ReplyDeleteRevolution? I will have a look at the weekend I'm popping into town then. I get all excited about new things haha, thanks for the heads up! :D X
