Through trial and error, I’ve discovered that using a sticky primer with the deeper colors in this palette makes them almost impossible to blend. Also, the brush that came in the palette works better with the lighter shades, but I lose control of the pigments when I use it with the deeper ones. It’s a beautiful palette, but it takes some practice to nail the best combination of products in order to make it work. All that aside, you recovered this look perfectly!
I filmed another look using this palette but this time I went with the nude tones. Instead of using the Urban Decay Primer Potion I picked up a Mac Paint Pot as one of my lovely subscribers suggested. I did find I got on better that time with the palette but i'll need to use the blues again with the paint pot to figure if it was the ud primer that made the difference. You would think one of their own primers would be most suitable with the palette but maybe not 😅Completely agree, it's a gorgeous palette and one that I was so looking forward to digging in to. It's just a shame you've to work so hard to figure out a way of getting it to look good haha! Thanks a million xx
@@EimearMcElheron Happy to help! I get what you’re saying that UD primer SHOULD work with their eyeshadows, but this formula seems to be a bit different that their usual fare, and more like Naked Honey...which I LOVE!
Absolutely gorgeous, thank you for demonstrating this! I just bought this palette and have not yet used it. I love Urban Decay and the shadows in this pallet are a wonderful combination of colors I would not have put together myself.
Interesting! I'll dig out my Mac Painterly Paint Pot and give it another go and see how I get on. I think I'll do a tutorial next week on some of those bronze tones. Thanks very much! 😊 x
I’ve learned that the UD primer makes it difficult to blend even with their own shadows. I used MAC’s paint pot in ochre & had no problems blending. Thank you, for the video.
Thanks so much for your tutorial/first impression. I was almost convinced to get this, but glad I hesitated. I’ll create this look using similar colors in my other palettes (just don’t have them all in one palette) with better formulas. If you struggled in getting these to blend, I could only imagine my frustration in attempting to do the same, topped-off with my anger over having paid so much for it. Thanks again, love your tutorials!
Yeah it’s definitely a first impression but not a good one 😅 I’ll use it again and try the shadows from the other end of the palette and see how they perform. It’s a pity because I was most excited about those blue hues and they were just so hard to work with. I wouldn’t use those again, if I wanted to create a blue look I’d reach for another palette instead! Glad the little insight helped and thanks very much for watching 🥰 x
I think maybe using a concealer instead of a primer would make it a little more blendable. (Got this tip from Smitha Deepak's channel-she usually uses concealer as primer on the eyes.) You two are my favorite makeup artists!
I agree re the UD palettes. I find some have really hard dry shadow which is hard to blend and I feel a bit like they have done the 'Naked' range to death now. A shame as I like a lot of their other products
Exactly! They can be so hit and miss. I adore the setting sprays and 24/7 glide on eye pencils in particular. There are actually lots of products in their range that I enjoy from blushes, to foundation etc. However the eyeshadow palettes are just a little lack lustre lately which is a shame as eye makeup is my favourite to create! x
I don't know if it's my skin or what, but I did not have a hard time with the shadows at all. It blended really nicely with no effort. Thank you for the amazing video! Best one yet and got compliments on my eyes at Comic Con. Keep up the good work! ❤️
I would try a different eye primer like the one from Mac paint pot. And definitely use a different brush not the one that comes with those palettes. I do not have success with that brush.. others have had trouble with those brushes... And use your finger for the shiny color they go on so much better than using a brush.
I have this palette and only use the blues on the lower lash line. The browns blend better. I was off Urban Decay after Naked 3 which was my second palette but then I ordered Honey when it launched and then when this one launched I went a little crazy and also ordered Cherry, Heat and Stoned Vibes.I am done unless they do a green palette and will be sticking to Natasha Denona and Viseart I think
I’m going to give the other end of the palette a go and see how those shadows perform but so far I’m a bit disappointed. I adore the Naked Heat palette it’s one of the very few palettes I’ve ever hit pan on multiple shades. It’s one I’m going to have to repurchase soon 😅 I gave my Naked 3 palette to one of my friends and UltraViolet was a little lack lustre for me. The launches are definitely hit or miss! X
@@EimearMcElheron I love purple and am totally disappointed with Ultraviolet. The only one I truly loved was the original Naked I hit pan on 7 and they had to go and replace it with an ABH Sultry dupe with half the quality :(
I know this sounds weird but I prefer dark colors to be harder to blend because it stays put and less mistakes. If you take a sheer powder on the tip of your brush and blend, it will be much easier ; )
If you intended to blend so seamlessly then why use the primer because that was enough to make the layer stick appropriate however once you started blending it wasn’t about to be smeared anywhere. I myself use primer only when using a heavy fallout pallet
Different strokes for different folks! This is what I religiously do and have absolutely zero problem blending seamlessly. It's what always works for me, no matter what look I'm creating. You would also expect that the own brands primer would work the best in conjunction with their own palette but possibly not 😅 Who knows.
@@EimearMcElheron okay just apparently your agenda is about stroking a particular brand and that is unnecessary try wet and wild primer, much more cost effective, She is a Jew and just ignore me maybe however wasting money or love is apparently your agenda
@@braealexander8820 What are you talking about 😅No agenda here pal, it's not that deep its just makeup 😂I use Wet n Wild all the time which is very apparent if you're a follower of my channel. Anyway, have a nice evening.
Every time I go to buy this i remember I have EVERY SINGLE COLOR in my bloated collection, AND the naked formula has regressed to a level unbecoming of UD. Stoned Vibes was the best palette in a few years
Love the Smashing Pumpkins reference in your username haha! I know I feel the exact same way. I adore the Stoned Vibes palette, I've created at least 4 tutorials on it so far and definitely could squeeze out more haha! 😊 x
You should show the colors that you use, before you use them, so people looking @ your video will at least have an idea of the color they should use off of their pallet 😥
I do show them? I photograph every makeup item before I use them. I then place a zoomed in image of the eyeshadow that I’m using and then I name the colour. I do think it’s quite clear but if you’ve any suggestions, do let me know? 😊 x
This is the best look I've seen anyone create with this palette
Oh wow thank you so much xx
I love how you did this look. Your eyes make the colors come out more. I have this palette and will try this look. Thanks for sharing.

Yes. Same here, it’s trial and error. It’s a really pretty palette and I love the blues.

I did a similar loom yesterday and didn’t have any issues. But I set my shadow before hand and used the Mac paint pot. I’m loving this palette

Despite the issues, the final look was gorgeous. Great choice of colours. 😍
Thanks a million 🥰I adore the combination of colours, just a pity about the performance! X

You’re very kind, thank you 🥰 x
Yep! Love the look you created with this palette!
Thanks very much, I really appreciate it 😄x
Wow 🤩! Beautiful eyes and makeup 💄! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks a million! 😄x
@@EimearMcElheron 👍👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍
It can be so frustrating working with a pallette like that. The final look really looks great
Thanks so much! Aw I know! I was happy I stuck with it though because I did like the outcome too 😅 I’m a sucker for teal tones x
I have a similar smaller elf pallette & works very easy & honestly it didn't have a bunch of colors you'll never user!
I know this sounds weird but I prefer dark colors to be harder to blend because it stays put and less mistakes. If you take a sheer powder on the tip of your brush and blend, it will be much easier ; )
You salvaged the look beautifully.
Haha thanks very much! A bit of time and patience 😂🥰 x
Muy elegante. Fantástico.👍🤩👏👏👏
Thanks so much 😄x
I love the look🥰🥰🥰🥰
