URBAN DECAY NAKED WILD WEST PALETTE...COMPARISONS & 3 LOOKS

[@joleenludwig3005]

I like that you aren’t a makeup artist. I like that you struggle with the same issues as the average user. It makes me more comfortable with your recommendations because makeup artists make it look amazing and I get the palette and struggle. At least with you I have a good idea on what reality is when using it.

[@filipavicente7470]

Same here!!!!

[@rebekahmastro4138]

Ditto ladies, I don't enjoy seeing her have a hard time its not nice to witness that. Then again this is her job good makeup, bad makeup. We get the real person and hard to work with products. Now what 'honest' lady at the cosmetic counter will show the cons as honestly as Jen.

[@nancyvelasquez7775]

I agree I always ask her about products she always recommended

[@sterlingbraden4270]

You probably dont give a damn but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me

[@loganivan5239]

@Sterling Braden instablaster :)

[@emilytennant808]

I think this palette is so pretty. I'm not going to buy it, but to me, it's a beautiful color story.

[@geniej2378]

A tip for using darker shades - don't use big fluffy brushes, use dense small brushes. To blend out, use a small blending brush and just go around the edges. Alternatively you could use that shade as a liner or pop on the lower lash line

[@jolanda.c]

I like that the darks are buildable and sheer out. On my skintone as being real pale, it is easier to add then take off. That is what I like about the Naked Line in general.

[@Butterflygirl36]

I noticed that Colourpop At Forest sight has a lot of similar shades to that one as well!

[@beccahope]

I have the CColor Around the World (Born to Run) so I think I’m good, even though this color story is actually really pretty. Love all the comparisons!

[@dazem8]

I have around the world too! it's very good quality and the price was unbeatable. ❤

[@keljowed14]

Exactly my thoughts! Around the World is so good!

[@anh7807]

It's a dupe for so many other palettes. Glad i got it while I could.

[@joslyns_dream_vanity6138]

I did purchase it and I think it’s my favorite Urban Decay palette ever! Mine blended just beautifully, I did spray my brush to put on the shimmer shades and did pack on the product before blending but it worked like a dream. Sorry yours was a struggle, its such a beautiful palette!

[@kaburzynski]

I just wanna say that I love your application demonstrations! My skill level is beginner, so it helps to see how someone with average but not professional skills applies makeup. That isn’t meant as a dig to you, I mean that watching professional MUA’s doesn’t help me because they could make anything look good! I want an easy palette that even with my limited skills can still look good, and your demonstrations are almost always able to tell me if a palette is the one for me!

[@JenPhelps]

Thank you Kasia!! I love this because I feel the same way! I always want to see how the average everyday user will be able to apply something!

[@suzannenicole3431]

Thanks Jen! I thought I really wanted this one. But I have the Mercury Retrograde and am not using it enough. I will save myself some money.

[@yessiyessica]

Great review! I had not even thought of the Born to Run palette having so many similar shades. The comparisons were very helpful.

[@laurajohnson7836]

I am really considering this palette. I feel like you would need to put your lighter crease colors first and blow them out and then add the dark colors and pack them on precisely where you want them, and not blend them. That way you have the impact of the dark color you want without sheering it out. But I am no makeup artist, just a make lover who enjoys playing with makeup. Some days I start an eye look, don’t like it and start over me get a pretty look. Love your reviews ❤️

[@daniellefaith47]

I like this color story but I can find all these shades in my collection already, so this is going to be a wait-til-it-goes-on-sale-black-friday palette for me.

[@Sldejo]

Me too except I’m still not buying it 50% off.

[@subisri3689]

Same here

[@anh7807]

@@Sldejo I agree. Thought I'd wait until 50% off until I saw I already have all the colors in my UD BTR palette.

[@kelseyvolinsky3405]

I’m so glad you did the side by sides! I was thinking of picking this up, but I have the Born to Run palette. Now I feel inspired to play with that instead!

[@carmendemiguel7056]

Our pockets appreciate much your comparisons! 😊 I am not purchasing makeup for some time anyway but the colour story is very pretty. Now seeing your video, I am just so happy that it is so similar to the Dream St. and the born to run (I have the CColors dupe which it is great) 😁 And it actually reminds me of the Secret Palette from Nabla. I don't think it is a dupe but most of the shades that I would use from the UD palette look similar to the shades that I use more from that one 😏

[@rockys2ndmomma]

I think this palette is beautiful but I do have the CP Dreamstreet and Salvaje. I don't like the snake skin packaging as I have a snake phobia. I actually had to attend a therapy session for it . I love UD palettes, they're my favorite high end palette. I was a teen ager in the early 90s when UD was established and they were carrying grungy colors.. worked well with Doc Martens! Hahaha

[@JenPhelps]

Oh wow I'm the same way with spiders, haha. Thankfully most products don't use those! And yes! I remember UD from back then, it was definitely part of my grunge style!!

[@elizabethparham2553]

As someone who only owns 3 palettes currently, and two of them are Born to Run and Dream St., I just can’t justify buying this palette for $50. This review really helped me to see the dupes for this within my own collection, and also let me see that I’m weak to mostly nude palettes with pops of blue apparently, haha.

[@ejbooks]

A great review. So glad you showed us similar pallets. Since I have Born to Run, no need to buy this one. I will wait for another review!!! Thanks for your detailed review. Appreciate your time and effort 🌺

[@paofacu]

Thank you for all the comparison swatches!!! 🤗 I have the born yo run palette and I barely ever reach for it, I’ll play with some more to see if this would be a color story I would gravitate towards. And THANK YOU for doing several looks with this palette! I love to see how the colors perform from Someone that’s not a professional... and btw, I think you have really good skills! More than you give yourself credit for!!!

[@sherrylandscaping3781]

I loved second look. I've got the UD Wild West palette I love it. My son bought it for me. The newer one I'm more excited for After Dark it looks really good colors. Not available yet.

[@jenniferconley3396]

It’s such a shame that the shades don’t perform that well, but regardless you did an amazing review and super helpful ❤️

[@barbiefigueroa]

Spraying your finger is a great tip I’d never thought of! Thank you Jen! I do love this palette. The colors are beautiful!

[@MilyxxMily]

Great comparisons I appreciate your honesty. For myself when I use tape I find the adhesive leaves an inexplicable invisible film or something that causes me to not be able to easily blend the corners, however if I waited a minute for the area the tape was on to dry or lightly set over the area then blend that helps. Also don't use the tape straight from the roll, put the tape on your hand & peel a few times before putting on your face so the adhesive isn't as strong so that you so get the effect but not the leftover adhesive.

[@truewants]

Hi the packaging is so beautiful ! thanks for all you do!

[@zazou8505]

Best review of this new ud palette i ve seen so far...so thorough,honest and well thought...thank you...

[@debedwards1717]

As soon as I saw that Naked palette, it reminded me of my Rimmel palette.

[@traciemcalister5327]

Same here!

[@gretchenhanna1323]

I love that middle look on you. I also appreciate your honesty regarding the struggle with blending. We are not all make up artists, soooo we will likely be struggling too. Thank you for another wonderful video.

[@sarahmorey8653]

Thanks so much! You made me realize how drawn I am to the same colors. The dupes you chose all happened to be on my wishlist for pallets and I just bought the ucanbe dupe for born to run. You saved me lots of money lol!

[@sarahwaugh1409]

The Wild West palette had caught my eye, but I have Born to Run and Dream Street so I don’t really see any need to purchase it anymore. Thanks so much for your informative videos! I always look forward to watching your content. ❤️

[@sharonlea786]

I appreciate your honesty, its why I keep coming back.

[@luvsephora55]

You save me from so many regrets haha. Another awesome review and comparisons ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@natthereader]

I’ve got Dream Street and BTR - your comparisons are always awesome! Def don’t need this one. And I am the same way - I am not a makeup artist. I don’t need palettes that are hard to blend and build up! Loved the looks though - looks like I need to break Dream Street back out again!!

[@belltangpornphan5771]

Love the gray/silver look on you, so pretty and complement everything on your face. Your blue eyes pop too :)

[@watermelongal5512]

It's such a pretty palette! The packaging itself is so gorgeous! Thank you so much for your thoughts on this palette.

[@Kimbyroseh]

Thank you so much for doing all of the comparisons! That’s my favorite part about the reviews you do! V

[@kfemme68]

Thank you for everything you do to help and show us on all of these palettes. I really do appreciate all of it!

[@michelem77112]

Thanks for swatching with the born to run palette. I have the dupe for it, so I’m good for now!

[@MsDee_777]

On IG I had said I wasn't a fan of the color story but when I see them on you their sooo pretty!

[@mcarrier4380]

Thanks so much for the effort you put into your content ♡

[@dazem8]

When compared with very affordable makeup companies (like COLOURPOP, CCOLOR or ALTER EGO) you can see price does not necessarily equal quality. UD needs to step it up for $50 😒

[@anh7807]

Bh cosmetics is awesome too 👏

[@coriculp]

Beautiful looks! You’re so hard on yourself with the application. It looks great. You always do a good job and we appreciate your sharing! 🥰

[@heatherbenza5185]

Thanks, I have born to run. I did not even realize how similar they are!

[@marybonome2827]

Thanks for the looks and comparisons! Appreciate how well thought out your reviews are!👍

[@meowmeow-le7mp]

Yesterday I was in Macy's and did the unmentionable...I touched the tester..I keep looking at this 🎨 and I know I do not need it but it is so beautiful! I think you do a great job applying the eyeshadow! This palette also has an ABH subculture vibe minus the shimmery turqoise shade. I appreciate your input on the performance of this palette because something may swatch beautifully but ends up to be a struggle to blend etc. Keep these reviews coming Jen😻

[@DSpurlin215]

Naked pallets make me angry 😂 I'm still using my 3 yr old cColor Around the World because that blue is fantastic. I am glad you didn't spend your money on it. Thanks for showing alternates

[@dazem8]

I have around the world too! it's very good quality and the price was unbeatable. ❤

[@itscoral]

Oh wow! I would have never thought of the elf Retro Paradise palette being so similar to the UD one! I absolutely adore the elf one so I don't think I need the UD one. You always save me some money with these videos 😊

[@lilacchocolate]

This palette is really speaking to me, thank you again for being so informative Jen!!! 👏☺️

[@RRbobreed]

Hi Jen! Thanks for showing us that you struggled w/the shadows, the vast majority of us aren't makeup artists so you're problems are likely what we'll encounter too.

[@samantha200]

Thank you for this video. I love UD and want this palette. Thank you for the comparisons! I appreciate that you are not a makeup artist because I can relate to you. I also am not confident but I learn so much from these videos. Your looks are great! Thank you for being so raw and real.

[@teanahbales4116]

Thank you for your review, I just purchased it and used it for the first time. I really like it but I understand some of the issues. Now you gave me some great ideas, I only buy urban decay pallette so it is all I know. I love the teal and gold tones. Thanks again.

[@salomebaker.3463]

I’m a green addict and love this palette and thanks for the different looks.This really helps.

[@TaraLyz]

I love the UD formula, but I have several palettes that I need to show a little more love before I buy this one as a replacement palette. (I made a rule that I can’t buy any more palettes until I let go of 2-3 currently in my collection. Working on panning Reloaded & Petite Heat right now.)

[@meitalkabeli509]

I wasn't sure about this palette with the mixed reviews. Thanks for the comparisons, I have the Born to Run and the colors are very similar. I do like the colors in the Wild West, so if I decide to get this I might wait when it goes on sale, and then maybe get it. Thanks for your looks, I really like the combinations you came up with, my favorite is the gray silver look.

[@jenny4107]

I love this palette! I don't have any others with a similar color story and I'm still getting used to wearing bolder colors so I found this mix of cool and warm neutrals with the bold teal and bright blue very approachable. I didn't have any trouble with blending or fading but I do typically use a primer since I tend to get oily lids by the end of the day. I was really happy with the looks I created and the teal and silver looked great with my brown eyes.

[@jeannettep-w2135]

I love when you do your comparisons and the looks you showed us☺️

[@ginger_80]

I never realized how blue your eyes are, kinda like sea glass. Beautiful

[@JenPhelps]

Aw thank you so much! :)

[@JosieGoyangi]

I completely agree with your review! I'm debating returning this because the two shimmery shades I was excited about are patchy and hard to work with. I've tried much, much more affordable shimmers that work wonders!

[@ipsukkula]

I would love to see u trying nowadays the first comparison palette and compare it to wild west.

[@lunawinchester2657]

This palette reminds me a little bit of the high tight and good vibes palette from tarte and of course of the born to run palette from urban decay

[@psfries]

Thank you for your honest review. This palette kept luring me in but I have all the other palettes you compared them too so I think I’m good!

[@adkinsclarissa6392]

It reminds me of the Kylie blue honey palette. I just picked it up at ulta around Xmas for $12

[@jessbeness808]

Thank you for showing these dupes! I’ve been thinking about getting this one but I have Born to Run. I rarely use those blue colors, so why would I buy another palette to not use them. Great video and I love look #1

[@cherylw.4920]

It reminds me of BH Santa Fe. Thank you for the review Jen. I think I’m more interested in the BH BFF palette, which to me looks similar.

[@vainglory5346]

Wow, Urban Decay really did that. They selected some shades from an existing palette (Born to Run) and proceeded to shoehorn them into the Naked line. I am kind of irrationally angry about this. It's a whole new level of BS as regards that line. Like, there hasn't been anything "Naked" about it in a pretty long time, but this is above and beyond their other shenanigans. Thanks for the work you do with dupes and swatches, it's really helpful. There's no way I am buying this - because I think this was a shady thing to do, and because I had already figured the quality wouldn't be where I need it to be based on reviews and demos of the Ultraviolet palette (a color story which was even more compelling to me than this one). I have very high expectations of what the quality of a $45 palette ought to be, and this ain't it. Mostly what caught my attention was that deep gorgeous teal shade, though I guess I enjoy the idea of a Wild West theme and several of the other shades (excluding those which I find utterly abhorrent, which is a nonzero number, lol). I'm glad to have options. The CP Dream Street palette looks pretty good to me, although I know they like to discontinue palettes a lot, so I'm not sure if it's anything they have hanging around the warehouse. I haven't noticed it in my preview CP website perusals. The Elf might be good, which is interesting since I found the Retro Paradise palette pretty uninteresting before. Maybe the packaging and marketing played a role. Tbh, this is pretty far outside my usual palette preferences, which is possibly a good thing. I wonder if a Born to Run dupe might be ideal, if the CP is unavailable. I saw another commenter mention the Ccolor one. Anyway - thanks, Jen, for this video and others like it. This stuff really helps me decide which releases I should pursue, considering I'm on a very limited budget. I appreciate it.

[@meowcenary21]

I always enjoy your reviews and honesty

[@mommyof2muggles866]

OMG thank you! I have been lusting for this palette since launch but you just showed me I literally already have every color I wanted in my UD Born to Run palette (And embarrassing I have to admit to myself that I was totally being blinded by the beautiful packaging 🤪). Truth be told, I struggle with the dark blue getting messing in the BTR as well.

[@StarBudgets]

Thank you for the review!!! Not many Urban Decay palettes catch my eye but this one did! I ordered it the day after it was released (a week and a half ago), but because of the winter storm and Texas being unbelievably unprepared for it (we went 36 hrs without power in below freezing temps the whole time 🥶) it’s still in transport 😩. I can’t wait to get mine and play with it and now am prepared for what to expect and what to try when applying thanks to you 😉❤️

[@Omaita2008]

Wonderful review! I loved the palette comparisons and all of the looks were so wearable! I'm not buying this one but you definitely gave me some inspiration to recreate the looks with my own stash :)

[@ShesAnalytical]

Thank you so much! I knew I’d get an honest review from you. I think I’m going to skip this one and save up for a Natasha Denona palette. Something that has an amazing color story with less fuss.

[@marcellegreer8586]

I purchased it as soon as it launched, I’m on vacation but it’s at home waiting for me and I’m so excited to use it 🤩

[@brianaschino4903]

These comparisons were so helpful! 👍🏻

[@TinaHBeautifulJourney]

Great review and super helpful. I think with my BTR dupe and the Jewel Rocks, I can dupe the vibe if not the exact colors and I like those formulas. Thank you!

[@kamloopscruiser874]

[@blessednotstressed2616]

Thanks for your great review. I have the born to run palette and when I saw this it immediately drew a raised eyebrow. Regardless I am a HUGE makeup lover, but I know I have got to stop purchasing palettes because they are new. You certainly saved me some money and got a new subscriber.

[@l.c.8798]

I just saw this today on Sephora! It definitely is tempting me, more so than any of their other palettes ever have. 🤔

[@katwithak8490]

I LOVE URBAN DECAY!! I can’t wait to get the Wild West eyeshadow palette!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@tonydelat2322]

Nice to know this is very similar to the born to run (for which I own CColor's dupe). When I first saw this new Naked palette I didn't really feel captivated by it because to me they are a bunch of warm tones, with a couple grey/blueish tones. I think they could've been a bit more original.

[@nidiadoherty5405]

No wonder I really love this color story. I have most of the pallets you compared it to! Now I know I don’t need it, for sure. Not sure if I’ll be able to resist when it goes on sale, though.... lol!

[@nallya9018]

Thanks for your review on this. It doesn’t look like anything extraordinary. On another makeup brand topic, I was browsing Nordstrom Rack and saw that they have some Zoeva palettes for $10.97. They offer ship to store now (to Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack) if you don’t want to pay for shipping. I ordered two palettes to try and have been watching your old Zoeva reviews 😊 I hope they are user friendly palettes 🙂

[@JenPhelps]

I hope so too! I noticed that Zoeva has gotten rid of so many palettes on their site. I wonder what is going on?!

[@jannellemoreno4799]

I might pick up this pallet if I can get a sale on it.

[@kalliap.8983]

When I saw this palette, the wet n wild cosmic collision kinda came to mind as well as the makeup revolution forever flawless optimum palette. I would love to see swatches with those two side by side

[@RicanStarz]

I used to be obsessed with urban decay. I would buy everything except the eyeshadow palettes. There are so many affordable palettes out there that work better. I couldn’t justify spending $50 on them just because I loved the brand. Nowadays I’m all about drugstore makeup unless there is a sale on the high end stuff.
