Review: Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Makeup
Hey, Sexy Packaging!
Urban Decay NAKED
Skin Makeup is described as “weightless, ultra definition liquid makeup”. The packaging is so pretty, don’t ask me why I
bought this—it’s all about the packaging, only. I honestly didn’t have any
attention to any other products from the NAKED range aside of their palettes
because they were all looked “overrated” for me, but the packaging of this
foundation easily got my heart beat fast: its outer box has light bronze color
as the base and metal grey as for the printed information on it.
The bottle is made of a thick plastic, but surprisingly it still looks super duper sturdy and sophisticated. It’s tall and slim—very sexy! The accent color is the same dark metal grey color which used back there those on the box. Also the bottle comes with pump, so goodbye to the difficulties of pouring out products and messiness caused by it.
Description

Skin looks natural, illuminated and bright with a luminous demi-matte finish: like the beautiful skin you were born with.

Shades for Everyone
NAKED Skin has a
great range of color for everyone, though people like me—warm undertones, but
not too warm nor too cool, but not very neutral either—may find out it’s too
pink or too yellow. Else, will find it awesome! The numbering starts from .5 to
8.0. The number ending with 5 is for pink/neutral undertone and 0 for yellow/neutral
undertone. I have this in shade 3.0, and it’s a biiit too yellowish on my face,
but that’s okay though. I might want to grab shade 2.0 later when repurchasing.
Runny
for Good
I was surprised to
how RUNNY this foundation actually was! It’s so runny and easy to spread. But
to be honest, I would prefer this formula more than the creamier ones; even
though being runny means we’re going to use the product a lot more too but
that’s not really a matter because it’s lightweight like if you’re wearing nothing
on the top of your skin—plus, less dragging on skin while applying!
Do
You Believe in Naked, Healthy Skin?
It really is
buildable, but won’t build to that high coverage— at least to that enough
medium coverage to cover all pimples and ¾ redness all over your face. Add
concealer to the stubborn redness and voila, you’re done! One layer of this
foundation would result to a light coverage, and I prefer around 2-3 layer when
my face is not really good…in texture. Finish is satin, it’s neither the dead
matte nor that dewy too, but it’s a mix of both—a naked skin indeed. No cakey,
fake, ‘too much’ results too, my dear!

As for the staying
power and oil control, this foundation keeps a good job for keeping the oil at
the bay. I didn’t need to touch up until it reached 4 hours, which was awesome.
Every liquid foundation would’ve lost in this point as my face would get that
ugly greasiness in 2 hours, but this one nailed the job super good.
Retailing for $38, I
think it’s really worth having and really, you pay for what you get. I will
definitely repurchase for my next bottle, and yes this is my current Holy Grail
foundation of mine. You can get it from Sephora, Ulta, or any online and
offline shops which sell Urban Decay products. Try your shade before buying or
look over reviews, else you might want to go to Urban Decay’s site to use their
foundation generator—it helped me much, because I bought this online!
Score
Last Words?
I
would recommend this to everyone who has been through a hard time choosing
their best formula of foundation for their oily skin, but those with drier skin
might not like it as much as we do as it provides no moisturizing effect. Plus,
I wish Urban Decay would add the shade especially for the lighter ones because
some find it not enough pale for their skin. After all, good job, NAKED Skin!
