I'm back! Woah, that's been a bit of a hiatus there. Spurred upon by the many long Summery days I didn't want to miss and a few black-out periods between Christmas and Australia Day, but, I'm back. Let's get started by looking at my favourite little discovery over my break, and hopefully you'll be as excited as I was when I stumbled upon it!
The famous Urban Decay NAKED palette is something every make-up enthusiast should have in their routine. Known for being an extremely high quality, buttery application with an easy to blend formula, this palette rakes in a 4.6 our of 5 on MakeupAlley and is known as a HG product for beauty lovers everywhere.
Although, this product is also cruelty-free, it carries a heavier price tag of $81AUD. While that still works out for a great price for quality at $6.75 per shade, this can still be a big purchase for girls (like me), who are studying and love to shop Drugstore brands (like me).
But, who doesn't love a good dupe?!
HELLOOOO CHI-CHI!
Chi-Chi Cosmetics has a few good products out there in the Makeup Market, you'd remember the hype and evidential pull-through of their Brow Pomade, which received amazing reviews from beauty lovers and some even prefer the formula over the Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow.
But today I'm telling you about the Chi Chi Cosmetics NUDES Eyeshadow Palette. Why is this palette so exciting? Because it is noted to be a well-known dupe of the Urban Decay NAKED Palette.

Before knowing the dupe, I already used this ChiChi Palette as my weekend go to! I love the lighter shades, along with the perfect darker shimmers for depth and blending. The palette colours aren't exactly identical (shown below), but you can see the colours are easily similar enough to use your Chi Chi palette when following along to NAKED Youtube application tutorials. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of the darker shades in the Chi Chi palette, maybe it's personal preference of not using too many dark colours with a blue base, or maybe because they don't hit the dupe mark as easily as the lighter shades. If you're looking for those darker dupes, check out BYS Nude 2 Eyeshadow Palette.

For girls that want a high quality and cost effective eyeshadow palette, I recommend the Chi Chi Nudes Palette, available from Target, Myer, and on their online site.
