Naked Skin Beauty Balm by Urban Decay Review!

Hi Guys!  Today I am excited to write my review for Naked Skin Beauty Balm by Urban Decay!  I received a sample to test out from the lovely ladies over at Ipsy along with my December Glam Bag.  If you are not already a Glam Bag subscriber, make sure you head over to www.ipsy.com to sign up, their monthly subscription cant be beat!  I am a sucker for BB Creams and new products in general.  This product will hit the www.UrbanDecay.com website on January 8th, 2013, make sure to visit their site and sign up for email notifications and they will send you email reminders when the product is available for purchase. 

 

Okay, now on to the good stuff, the review:

First off, I am a huge fan of BB Creams, in fact, I have never been a fan of thick/heavy/unnatural foundations.  Before BB Creams hit the market I simply used concealer and occasionally some tinted moisturizer.  This Naked Skin Beauty Balm by Urban Decay is so great because it is light, smooth, and improved the appearance of my skin instantly, and to top that all off, its Oil-Free, which is a must for me!  This baby does the job of like a million products in one!  It evens skin tone and cover dark or sun spots, it helps pores appear smaller, it covers any redness from acne or old acne spots, and even helps hide those pesky little wrinkles around the eye area.  Also, its SPF 20, so it protects the skin from harmful sun rays.  There is no need for a moisturizer or primer with this as it improved skins moisture and definitely stays in place!  The shade is one of those "for every skin tone" types, and before you run off scared, this one really was (for me at least) it dried semi-matte with no noticiable shade difference, it was not orange-y like some BB Creams can be, and it was not cakey and did not pill.  I am overall extremely satisfied with this product! Oh, I forgot to mention the best part, the smell!!!  It has a slightly minty/medicated smell, and these types of scents I adore, I dont like the "powdery" smell some face makeup can have, so this was a pleasant surprise!  I will defeinitely be purchasing the full size of this product on January 8th when it is available!  Lastly, below is a picture of me wearing the Beauty Balm, Id say it enhanced the "Beauty"  ;)

I shared my Ferrero Rocher Holiday Treats with my sister and my little nephew. My sister and I absolutely loved them as we are chocolate lovers and we love nuts with our chocolate!  These bite size balls are so devine and they have a whole hazelnut tucked inside a rich chocolatey cream center which is covered by a circular wafer crunchy type of yumminess, then all of that is dipped in more chocolate and chopped nuts!  Makes your mouth water doesnt it?  My little nephew loved them also, it was a little more than a bite for him though, but that didnt stop him, he dug right in taking huge bites until he reached the chocolatey center! 

Thanks again Infuenster and Ferrero Rocher!!
