Urban Decay Heat Palette UK |

Packaging
This comes in a beautifully packaged informative box and the palette itself is adorned in a copper case that's both sturdy yet aesthetically pleasing. The case is much like the smokey version with a magnetic closing and the lid opens right out for ease of use.
Inside you'll find 12 brand new shades as well as a decent sized mirror and double ended brush, and just like the other naked palette's you'll find the shade names underneath each colour also.
Application
Inside you'll find a great mix of warm toned shadows including 7 mattes and 5 shimmers. Lumbre and Ember also have a stunning duo-chrome effect too. Each colour is soft to the touch, richly pigmented and easy to use, and I just love the versatility of this palette overall.
I had no problem blending out each colour, however, if you're building up each shade, just remember to tap off the excess from your brush as you do get some fallout.
I also created a beautiful fiery eye look using a mix of both the mattes and metallics which I've linked up above, along with live swatches of each of the shades so you can get a real feel for the palette.
Here's a rundown of each shade also...
1. Ounce - shimmer
2. Chaser - nude matte
3. Sauced - terra-cotta matte
4. Low Blow - brown matte
5. Lumbre - copper/gold shimmer
6. He Devil - red matte
7. Dirty Talk - metallic red
8. Scorched - red/gold shimmer
9. Cayenne - deep terra-cotta matte
10. En Fuego - burgundy matte
11. Ashes - red/brown matte
12. Ember - metallic burgundy/copper
Just like the other naked palette's the shades I applied stayed vibrant and lasted all day which was great especially as these are more stand out colours compared to the neutrals. Prior to application I just used a concealer as a base to even out my skin tone.
Overall Thoughts
Well, what can I say, this is another amazing naked release from Urban Decay, the quality, packaging and versatility make this palette second to none in my books. I'm a total fan already of the naked family and although this is very different compared to the first three it's still a very wearable palette.
I admit £39.50 for a palette does sound like a lot, but when you think of how many shadows you get and how blendable, buttery and long-wearing these are, then really it's a small price to pay for a wonderful selection of mattes, shimmers a decent sized mirror and double ended brush all in one. So if you're already a fan of the Naked palette's but you're after something a little different, then this may be just the palette you've been looking for!
I award the Urban Decay Naked Heat Palette a 4.9 out of 5
*This palette was sent to me but as always all opinions are my own
