Naked vs. Naked 2


I got the Naked palette by Urban Decay about eight months ago and then two months ago I got the Naked 2 palette! I absolutely fell in love with the first palette as soon as I got it in the mail. I've used the Naked palette every day since I got it. I just love how versatile the palette is. You can easily create an everyday look using some of the lighter more neutral shades or you can spice up your makeup for a night out using the sultry more dramatic shades. What I love most about the Naked palette is that it comes with a light brown matte shadow, which is actually called "Naked. It's the perfect shadow to help transition your crease color in to your highlight color. The palette also comes with two really pretty highlight colors, five gorgeous crease colors as well as five lid colors. So you can really create any look with all those colors.


Moving right along to the Naked 2 palette!! When I first saw all the colors in this palette I was so excited! I completely fell in love with all of the earth toned and taupe shadows. If you know me, you know that I am always wearing some find of neutral eye. I like to play it safe when it comes to shadows and I just feel like neutral colors are more flattering on me. So what I love about the Naked 2 palette is that every shadow is wearable for everyday, even the matte black, because you can use it to set your eyeliner which is something that I like doing. My favorite shadow out of this palette is surprisingly "Tease". Its like the most plain shadow out of the whole palette but I just think it is the most perfect crease color! I really love to pair "Verve" and "Tease" together. They compliment each other so nicely. I also really love that the Naked 2 palette came with a matte highlight color. Its hard to find matte highlight colors and I've been wanting one for a while now and "Foxy" is exactly the color shadow I've been looking for.

So overall I would definitely recommend both palettes to anyone and think that there both palettes that everyone needs in their make-up collection. However, I would have to say that the Naked 2 palette is my favorite. I just love how wearable every color is for a day time look and a night time look. I feel like all the shadows you can wear during the day, where as the first Naked palette I feel like there are darker colors that are harder to pull off for day time looks.
