Urban Decay 'Naked On the Run' Palette Review


Urban Decay has released another palette in the 'Naked' series. This one is different from its predecessors because it is a complete look and not just eyeshadows. The On the Run palette has 5  all new eye shadow shades, a bronzer, a blush, an all over highlighting shade, a new eyeliner shade, a new lip gloss color, and a travel size mascara.


The eyeshadows include:
  • Dive (metallic rose w/golden micro-shimmer)
  • Fix (soft taupe matte) 
  • Resist (medium metallic taupe) 
  • Dare (medium brown matte) 
  • Stun (metallic bronze w/light gold micro-shimmer)

The bronzer is a medium matte bronze and the blush is a vibrant pink with a slight shimmer.
The highlighting shade is is called: 50/50 (cool bisque satin)
The eyeliner is called Stag (deep brown satin)
The lip gloss is called Sesso (rose with pink shimmer)



PROS:



Overall, I really like the colors in this palette. I love all of the eye shadows (I use Dive and Resist almost every day). They are all very flattering colors and they go on really well. I am also a fan of the 50/50. I swipe it on my eyes in the morning when I don't feel like doing much with my eyes or if I'm in a hurry. The eyeliner is such a pretty brown color, I love it. I usually don't wear brown eyeliner because I don't like the way it looks with my brown eyes, but this one is so pretty.

The mascara, Perversion, is really nice. I haven't had a problem with flaking or anything like that which is nice. I haven't gotten to use the bronzer much, but I do like how it goes on. The blush is such a pretty pink. It gives you this naturally flushed look which I am a fan of. As for the lip gloss, it is surprisingly pigmented and I think it looks really pretty. I'm used to sheer glosses but this one packs a punch when it comes to color.


CONS: 

I do wish, however, that the packaging wasn't so bulky. It's kind of big and annoying if you want to carry it on the go. It also does not include a brush which I find really annoying. The palette is advertised as a "travel-ready kit comes loaded with EVERYTHING you need for a complete Naked look,"  but it's hard to put on makeup with no brush.



Also here are the fill weights:

  • Eyeshadow: 5 x 1.4g POIDS NET/WT 5 x 0.04oz
  • Blush Bronzer: 8.5 g POIDS NET.WT 0.3oz
  • Naked Ultra Nourishing Gloss-Sesso: 4ml / 0.13 fl. Oz
  • Perversion Mascara: 4 ml/ 0.13 fl oz
  • 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil: 0.8 g POIDS NET/NET WT. 0.03 oz




Like I said before, I do like this palette a lot and I would recommend it, but if you're going to be using it somewhere other than your home- make sure you have your makeup brushes.


If you're interested in purchasing this product you can get it at either Sephora or Ulta.
