Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, often embraces a hands-on approach with her beauty regime, and it is famously acknowledged that she even managed her own makeup on the day she stepped into Westminster Abbey. For admirers keen to emulate her effortlessly chic look, Kate’s go-to beauty items are unexpectedly accessible.
Insiders have revealed that the key to her subtle, smokey eye effect is attributed to the Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 Eyeshadow Palette. Originally priced at £27, bargain hunters can now seize the opportunity to own the palette for just £19.23, courtesy of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days.

AmazonThe product has been met with acclaim from many users, who praise its suitability for daily use and commend its buildable quality and enduring wear. One reviewer enthused: “Colours are well pigmented. Really good for elderly women who don’t want to emphasise their wrinkles. Non-shimmer.”
Yet, opinions differed as another commented on being ‘disappointed’ by the level of pigmentation. A different user shared their satisfaction, noting: “Lovely colours if you like natural nude shades. Glide on to the skin well and great size for travelling, or popping in your handbag.”
And a third individual enthused: “This little palette of cool, matte, neutral eyeshadows is a staple in my makeup bag! I’ve bought it twice so far and find myself reaching for it a lot.” It’s great for everyday natural looks but easy enough to do a smokey eye for the evenings. I also use it a lot in combination with other palettes so it’s very versatile. The eyeshadows blend easily and last a long time with no creasing.”
