Hello everyone!
So I am going on holiday soon but I really need to pack lightly! I wanted to try out a few different make up options so I could decide what to take with me. After routing threw my make up drew I found Urban Decay NAKED on the Run Pallet. I don't know how I managed to forget I had this!
As you can see straight away the packaging is absolutely beautiful! The pallet has a really strong plastic box with rose gold detail around the sides. If you have read my Rose Gold Wishlist you will understand how much I love all things Rose Gold.
When I opened the pallet the first thing I noticed was the HUGE mirror. You can also stand the mirror up and it will not move out of place this makes it perfect for clearly applying all the products and ideal for traveling.
Now for the products... for anyone familiar with Urban Decay you must know that the brand does not disappoint especially when it comes to presentation. Inside the pallet you get mascara, eyeliner, lipgloss, eyeshadows, bronzer, blush and highlighter all put nicely together.
There are 5 eyeshadows that all have different finishes to them, some creating a metallic/shimmer effect and others matte. We all know Urban Decay have AMAZING eyeshadows because of the huge success of the Naked pallets. They are really pigmented, do not have bad fall out, do not crease and paired with eyeshadow primer they last all day! I cannot complain when it comes to using these eyeshadows.
When it comes to bronzer and blusher they are super pigmented! Orange toned bronzer and hot pink blush do not mix but I have found just applying a small amount can look nice. The actually application of the product is easy and smooth. Overall I would of preferred different colours as it does seem like more of an effort being super careful not to apply to much.
The highlighter is a beautiful shade that works well to highlight every part of your face from your brow bone to cheek bone. It completes the look and adds a really nice finish.
You also get a mini version of perversion mascara, when I say mini its not really that small its just skinnier and a little shorter then the original. The applicator brush is the exact same so overall you will achieve the same effect. Not going to lie I am not a huge fan, its not a bad mascara but I just don't think it gives my eyelashes much curl and volume compared to others.
The 24/7 Glide on pencil comes in a deep brown colour that looks almost black. I don't usually use pencil eyeliner but I enjoyed using this one there is kind of a soft feel to it compared to others and I found it was easy to apply.
Onto lipgloss... again the packaging to Naked lipgloss is beautiful! The lipgloss is very sheer so it works well complimenting lipstick or if you wanted a more simple look you could even use this alone. Be aware the texture is really thick and gooey which may not suit to some people, at first I was not fussed but now I have grown to like it more and more.

I am not 100% sure if I am going to be taking this with me. I do think it is great for travelling I'm just really undecided on what to choose and as you can see I have mixed feelings. I plan on uploading a blog post on what I take with me so keep checking back if you would like to see.
Any make up suggestions for my holiday?
Have you ever used NAKED on the Run?
