NYX Nude On Nude Palette


I  couldn't contain my excitement when i found this in TK Maxx for £12.99. I love me a neutral palette, and the fact this came with lip colours was simple a bonus. I find some of the colours to be similar to the Urban Decay Naked Palette, and the MUA Undressed Palette, so i knew i had to get it!  





As you can see some of the colours I've already used ( i couldn't wait to try it before i photographed it for you!







I personally have rarely used lip colours in a palette, because i can't use that same colour to touch up during the day, but i think i may give this a go - i don't like waste!
My first impressions of this palette is that the pigmentation is very good, and although I've only used a couple of colours i am seriously impressed. I can see this becoming a staple product !
You can find this palette here

today i got a package - palette !

Right now everyone is raving over the Naked 2 palette, but i was looking for something a little similar (neutral colours), just not with the price tag. I've always wondered what the ebay palettes are like, and after asking MissBudgetBeauty what they were like (and being told they were of really good quality) i decided to take the plunge, although it wasn't much of a plunge as they are soooo cheap, more like dipping my toe in a rock pool. 
I will do swatches as time goes on as there are just so many colours, but my first impressions are that this might just be my new favourite palette! I was a little apprehensive as to whether all the shadows would be intact, but seen as the palette arrived wrapped in bubble wrap in a box which was in a polystyrene box which was in a cardboard box, there was little chance of that happening! The case itself is super sturdy, and easy to open and close.
If anyone wishes to know where you can buy this palette then just click here! They also do a palette full of bright colours, which as a dancer might just be pretty useful to me!
Have you used this palette?
Have you found an alternative to the naked palette?
