Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Review

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Naked

I debated whether to get the original Naked Palette or the Naked 2 Palette. I compared both palettes and decided to purchased the Naked 2 palette. This palette contains 12 eyeshadows, a travel-size Lip Junkie lip gloss in Naked and a full size double-ended Good Karma Shadow & Crease Brush. All shades are highly pigmented and come in three finishes: matte, shimmer and glitter. The texture is soft and blendable. I had some fall-out with some shades and I have to use a shadow base, otherwise they crease on my eye lids. The brush is firm but soft and it is made of synthetic fibers. Each eyeshadow except for Booty Call can be purchased individually for $18. The size of the individual eyeshadows is about the same size as each shade of the palette. The Naked Lip Junkie is neutral pink with a subtle minty flavor. There is a tingling cool sensation on the lips for a few minutes, which I am assuming is for plumping the lips. The formula doesn't feel too thick and it lasted 2.5 hour on my lips. Overall, I like the Naked 2 palette. All the colors are wearable, and versatile. I like the packaging too, which is travel-friendly and practical.
