When I first saw a picture of The Nudes by Maybelline, I knew I wanted it. In all honesty, I didn’t need ANOTHER nude eye shadow palette, but who cares? This one is only $9.99 at most drug stores and you can always use coupons or specials that drugstores have to get it even cheaper. Now, not all the shadows blew my mind. There ARE about 3-4 shadows I LOVE. They all happen to be the shimmery, taupe and bronzy shades. The rest I just like.

You know how you want to be sure to get the RIGHT look down without looking like you’ve overdone it? That’s exactly what I was trying to do. So I did the typical thing and asked my best friend.
