Naked 2 by Urban Decay: Swatches
It’s been weeks since I parted with my Naked 1 palette. Yep, I sold it…not because I didn’t like it but because I just don’t get to use it often. Since I came up with my own eyeshadow palettes, I found myself not using my other palettes as much as I used to. Better convert it to cash so I can buy other stuff, than let it just gather dust somewhere in my makeup cabinet.
But when I saw Naked 2, I just knew I have to get it:
compared with Naked 1, packaging is a lot more secure and classy. it actually reminds me of my pencil cases back in my grade school days!
^_^
same with Naked 1, this has 12 warm-toned neutral colors
Foxy – matte, creamy-bisque shade that is perfect as a lid wash.
Half Baked – shimmery, coppery gold. this is also available in the first Naked palette, and this reminds me of MAC Amber Lights which is also one of my favorite shades
Booty Call – frosted, peachy color which is also good as a base
Chopper – shimmery copper, also a good base…just be careful with the fall outs!
Tease – matte, mauve shade. I find this to have a poor color pay off, so I had to really “scratch” my brush onto the pan to grab the color. It’s not my kind of shade, as this would give my lids a dirty, flat look. But let’s see if I can work this on my favor.
SnakeBite – reminds me of Smog, another great and favorite color from Naked 1. This can be used for those sexy smokey eyes!
Suspect – champagne with a bit of bronze, can be used as a great base and Snake Bite as crease color
Pistol – lovely gray color which kinda reminds me of MAC Elektra but this one has some browns in it. Another great overall lid color with a liner and coats of mascara for sexy set of peepers!
Verve – pearl shade with a tinge of pink, not my fave color as well.
YDK – similar to Sidecar from Naked 1 but a bit warmer and minus glitter
Busted – deep brown soft frosted finish, another great crease color
Blackout – intense, deep black with matte finish.
whew, I didn’t know describing colors can be this hard!
(dies)
LOL!
dual-ended full size brush, which I actually prefer than the eyeliners
(though i still wish this comes with the primer too, instead of the lipgloss)
flat brush for packing colors and fluffy brush for blending
i found it weird that they included a lipgloss instead of a primer, but this is a lovely color that can be paired with the dramatic looks you’ll come up using this palette
i love this is non-sticky, and has a minty feel.
I got this from Digital Traincase for Php3600 and so far, this helped me to stop thinking about my first Naked palette.
^_^
Overall, I love this palette and there’s no way I’m going to put this on sale again. Never!

I thought this is the cool-toned version of Naked 1?

Compared to the original palette, the shades on this one have more shimmers, no?

I love my Naked 1 and I want Naked 2 din. I remember searching for this palette in Sephora and laging out of stock.
