Naked 3 Tutorial - The Voice Gwen Stefani Inspired Look and Giveaway


I have very little time to watch TV between work and YouTube but when I do it's usually the Voice! I absolutely love the group of judges they brought together this season and I am so inspired by the group of singers on the show.

I've been so excited every week to see what Gwen Stefani would be wearing and last week I saw her sporting an incredible makeup look. She wasn't wearing her signature red lip or very obvious winged liner. It was a softer version of the cut crease and a natural lip. Everything about her usually edgy look was just a bit softer and all together beautiful.

Here is my take on the look she wore during the Top 12 Perform show.



I used the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette with it's rosy tones to achieve this look. It's has a very soft light lid and a deep crease and outer corner. I kept the lips natural and just a bit deeper than my natural color.

If you'd like to re-create this look here are the ingredients I used:


Foundation: Urban Decay Naked Skin - in shade 7.0
Powder: It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Translucent Powder
Bronzer: The Balm Cosmetics - Bahama Mama Bronzer
Blush: Face Atelier Ultra Blush - in the shade Tangerine
Highlighter: The Balm Cosmetics - Mary-Lou Manizer
Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills - Brow Dip - in shade Chocolate
Eye Shadow: Urban Decay Naked 3 palette
          Lid - Dust
          Crease (Transition Color) - Nooner
          Crease (Cut Crease) - Factory
          Crease (Outer V) - Darkside
          Brow Highlight - Strange
          Lower Lash Line - Factory/Darkside
          Tear Duct Highlight - Dust
Mascara: Too Faced - Better Than Sex Mascara
Lashes: Ardell Demi Whispies
Liquid Eyeliner: Kat Von D Tattoo Liner - in shade Trooper
Pencil Eyeliner: Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon - in shade Blacquer
Water line Pencil: L'Oreal Silkissime - in shade highlighter
Lip Liner: Ulta Automatic Lip Liner - in shade flesh
Lipstick: L'Oreal leMatte Colour Riche - in shade 403 No Matte-R What
Lip Gloss: Revlon Ultra HD Lip Lacquer - in shade Rose Quartz
Setting Spray: Urban Decay De-Slick Setting Spray

This look is something I can see myself wearing to work as is or going even darker in the crease for a night out. It's a look that can be worn on any eye shape and every color can be changed out for others to really customize this look to every skin tone.

I have grown up listening to Gwen Stefani, loved her fashion line, her bag and shoes. She's such a fashion icon and she does it in such a way that anyone can adapt her pieces into their looks. I hope she'll be on the Voice for more than just this season!

Now onto the giveaway...I wanted to start off my holiday giveaway spree with a great palette. Not only can anyone wear the shades in this palette...but everyone seemed to want to. When I held my last giveaway and asked what everyone's favorite nude item was, this palette was entered SO MANY times.

So here is it up for grabs. To get your entry in, see this makeup tutorial step by step  and to see all of the rules for the giveaway please visit the video below:
