  Pros

  I currently own the Naked and Naked 3 palettes, and I recently bought this product. The Naked palettes have great colors, but there was just one thing missing - a lack of matte shades. That's why it's such good news that this Ultimate Basics palette is composed entirely of matte colors! As someone with monolids, using too much shimmer can make me look tacky, so I'm really satisfied with this product. I'm using all the colors, and there's not a single shade I'd want to toss out.

  Cons

  There's quite a bit of fallout... After applying foundation, if you do your eye makeup, you'll find a pile of powder settled on your cheekbones. Plus, because it's matte, it's hard to wipe off. Even brushing it away just spreads the powder that's stuck to your face. The staying power is a bit disappointing compared to other Naked series palettes. Using an eye makeup primer does improve longevity, but it makes blending much more difficult. So I end up skipping the primer since it's better to achieve good blending. The case looks a bit cheap... It's made of lightweight plastic. If you drop it once, it's game over - it'll probably shatter completely. Yikes!

  Tip

  I recommend doing your eye makeup before your base makeup. If you do your base first and then your eyes, there's a lot of fallout, and it doesn't come off easily. If you try to apply more makeup over it, it can end up looking thick and messy.

  Pros

  I was surprised by how little excess powder there was when using a brush. The built-in brush was better than I expected, and the color payoff was actually better with the brush than with fingers.

  Cons

  There's some patchiness typical of matte formulas, especially with darker shades. I can't really see a compelling reason to use this product.
