Urban Decay NAKED 2

Hi guys!

Today's post is something most makeup lovers are quite familiar with.

This is probably one of the most coveted palette since it was released in the market...

Urban Decay NAKED 2

Eyeshadow Palette

This isn't mine. I just borrowed this from Liz's classmate in med school. I was doing her makeup for her birthday and I borrowed her palette just so I could blog a swatch post! Hihihi. ♥

I think I like this better than the first version which Liz already has. You can check our post about it here. Will probably create a separate swatch post about it in a different post. :P

So here's the palette. It has more matte shades compared to the first one which I like.

And here are some photos of the swatches.

Just look how pigmented they are!

Well, I am really a fan of the eyeshadows from Urban Decay. They are just so bold and long lasting! The color selections on their palettes are always nice! ♥♥♥

So that's it for this post.

Hope this swatch post could be of some help if you plan on buying this palette! I totally recommend it to those who love the nude/ natural look!

Cheers!

Playing with Liz's Naked Palette

Hello, everyone!

This is actually a very delayed post (I've been so busy lately).

Only recently have I experienced the 'magic' of Urban Decay eyeshadows (and primer potion). I've been reading a lot about it and most are more than satisfied with its performance. The first time I got to use it was when my friend, Liz, brought her palette to my house. It is actually a gift to her by our friend, Rica. :)

 

 

Of course I was excited to try every single shadow out!

Good thing Liz is such a dear friend and just let me play with the palette and I even convinced her to be my experiment!

First I tried out the metallic colors first. I didn't put any eyeliners on the first look. Just so everything will rely on the shadows.

But I think the lippie over-powered the whole look. I think this would work if she has a fierce black eyeliner on the top of her upper lashes.

We toned her lips down with a neutral shade of lippie.

It looks better in my opinion. Could work as a day makeup!

Next I tried the pink and mauve ones on me.

I really felt like a princess when I wore this look. :D

My sis also tried the palette out. She prefers the neutral shades on her eyes so she's actually the more excited one between the two of us when it comes to using the Naked Palette.

She used a mix of the gold and mauve shades.

And lastly I applied a smokey eyeshadow on Liz

Partnered with a pale gloss, it's a fantastic look for a great night out!

This experience really made me want to own my own UD palette. That's why I bought the UD Book of Shadows III (I♥NYC) last December. And I'm very happy with it!

I know that the New version of UD's Naked Palette is out and I'm very eager to get my hands on it. But for now, I don't have any plans on buying it. Besides, I like the more colorful shades on me. I'll just stick to the eyeshadows I have for now and probably just borrow Liz's Naked Palette once in a while. Haha! :)

Cheers,
