Everyday Wear

This is one of my favorite palettes to use for everyday looks. I can say that some of the eyeshadows are not as pigmented as others but it's still workable. I love the variety of shadows you get from the palette and it's really good for transitioning from a day to night look. You can easily smoke up your look and that is what i really like about it. I always use a base(e.l.f. all over cover stick in apricot beige) just to make colors brighter but i use the base for all my eyeshadows including urban decay etc. Overall, I would recommend this product to others but I don't think this is an exact dupe for the Naked Palette.

I love this book, actually I love them all.(:

I don't get why everyone is bashing these little black books. Everytime I use it I find the pigmention to be awesome. You don't have to buy really pricey pallets when you can just pick this one up for $5.00. I see a lot of other reviews saying that they couldnt get the colors to show up.. USE ELF EYELID PRIMER! Just like you would with any other eyeshadow.. :)

I really like this palette

There are beautiful colors in this palette. My favorite is the purple it looks so good on me lol. I like the liner that comes with it too its really natural looking when you put it on. I like that it comes with a handy tutorial that tells you how to wear the shadows, this is great for beginners. The palette is really versatile you can wear so many different looks with this palette. LOVE.

Terrible!

I got 3 books for $10 and gifted 2 to a friend and kept this one. And honestly, the shadows are terrible! They're so sheer (most of them barely show up on my hand), too glittery and chunky, or too chalky.. all around they're terrible and NOT worth the $5 (Or even the $3.33 if y ou get 3 books for 10)

Love this Little Brag Book

This is one of my little favorite all in one books! I love the fact that it is under 10$, provides lots of options, color goes on smooth and gives little tips and tricks!

Good for beginners

This isn't the best palette, but for the price, it was something I had to have. It taught me how to apply eyeshadow. I don't really use this palette anymore, it sort of just sits in my drawer. But because of it's cheap price, it doesn't affect me very much.

Works great!

I like this Palette suprisingly. Its not Super Great, however it is a good palette to use on the go. Gives you a quick crisp natural look on the go! I love to use it on others who do not like the appearance of lots of makeup. All and all, it is a great inexpensive buy for your kit. I also love the other beauty books that ELF makes that matches with this one. Go cop all three soon!

I wouldn't really say its a amazing dupe for the naked palette cux nothing is better than the real thing but the colors are amazing, my only problem is that the black is so difficult to blend for me so i just avoid it overall but this palette and the smokey eye one are amazing

Not the best beauty book.

ELF has some pretty awesome beauty books, the smokey eye one is my absolute favorite, but this one has it's problems.
The product is meant to be a dupe of the famous Urban Decay Naked palette and the colors are close, but a bit off. It's worth $5 to have and play around with, though.

Not enough to blow me away! Definitely hope this is not the UD dupe =/

I picked up this product from target and I'm not very happy with it! I have purchased some of their smokey eye books as well as the bright eye book in the past and I was not pleased with this one.

1. The eye shadow was too thick or too thin, the very neutral colors were soft and disastrous while the more pigmented shades were too "thick" to blend and like some of you have already mentioned muddied the color after an hour or two of wear. (( Mind you I wore this to work and school)) Even with my Tarte primer it was just not happening!

2. I wasn't impressed with the colors like I was with their smokey eye book, they didn't blend well and not even the help of my physicians formula brown eye neutral palette could help fix the muddying!

This product was just a miss for me! Which is kind of sad because I love and use a lot of Elf products! But sometimes, you really do get what you paid for! =[ Elf also had a giant, 120 palette with all bright, smokey, and neutral colors for 15$, not sure if I want to purchase that after the quality of this book!
