FAQs

How do I choose the right shades for my skin tone?

The Naked 2 Basics palette is versatile for many skin tones. Experiment to find which shades best suit your complexion. The lighter shades work well as a base, while the darker shades can be used for definition.

Can I use this palette for a smoky eye?

Yes, you can create a subtle smoky eye using the darker shades in the palette. However, for a more intense smoky eye, you may need additional shimmer or darker shades from another palette.

How should I clean my eyeshadow brushes?

Clean your brushes weekly with a brush cleaner or mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and let them air dry flat.

What is the shelf life of this eyeshadow palette?

Once opened, eyeshadows typically have a shelf life of 12-24 months. Discard if the texture or smell changes.

Can I use these eyeshadows wet?

While these are designed as dry eyeshadows, some users apply eyeshadows wet for more color intensity. This is best done with a setting spray to lock the look.

How can I make the eyeshadow last longer?

Use an eyeshadow primer before applying the eyeshadow. This will help the colors adhere to your eyelid, preventing creasing and fading.

Use a fluffy blending brush and apply the shadow in light layers, blending between each application.
