Hey beauts.
Over the last few months I have been trying out the Naked 3 and Iconic 3 palette. I know that the Naked 3 palette isn't in everybody's price range and all long for a dupe. The Naked 3 palette retails for £38.00 and the Iconic 3 is only £4. I did a little test and wore the same eye look on each eye but for my left eye used Revolutions and for the right I used Urban Decays. Nobody even noticed a difference!
Packaging: Obviously there is a distinct difference in the packaging. With the Naked 3 being a lot more appealing and sturdy. It closes a lot tighter and comes with a mirror and a decent brush. On the other hand the Iconic 3 packaging is thinner and doesn't shut as sturdy. It also lacks a mirror. That being said I have dropped the Iconic 3 many of times and it hasn't even scratched.
Pigmentation/Feel/Lasting: The pigmentation is so similar. All the colours in every single palette are so pigmented. The quality of the Iconic 3 is identical to Naked 3. I swatched nooner from Naked 3 and the dupe of it from Iconic 3. Despite the colours not being identical they are pretty similar.
They are chalky but easy to apply, there isn't a lot of fall out despite them being chalky. They blend easily too and once on the Naked 3 barely budges. That's the one major difference that with the Iconic 3 if you don't use a eyelid primer then it does come off a bit but pair it with a primer and your good to go.
Availability: The iconic 3 is only available in superdrug and the Naked 3 is available in Debenhams/house of Frasier/Sephora.
These two palettes are honestly incredible. If you have the budget then of course go for the Urban Decay Naked 3 but if you don't then there's honestly nothing with the Iconic 3. I have both and keep one at my dads and one at my mums because they're so similar it doesn't make a difference to me which one I use.
