      Hi Yelena,

      I tried a few a while back. I loved the colors, but I had a hard time blending. Hopefully they’ll work better for your skin than they did mine. Here’s the review in case you’re interested:

    I don’t own Naked 1, I’m debating whether to get Naked 2 or Naked 1. I didn’t like the first one because I thought the colors were too dark for me. I think I might get Naked 2! 🙂 I saw someone using Chopper in a tutorial and I was like ‘UD has to include that in a palette soon besides the Ammo palatte’ and they did! 😀 do u get a lot of fall out from Chopper and YDK?

    I like the new packaging but I think I would prefer to make a custom picked naked palette from mac shadows that would bring out my green eyes and suit my cool toned colouring. There are some pretty shades in the naked palette but I wouldn’t use them all. Ps can I ask where you got your top- it’s fab!

      Nice to see you here. 🙂 The palette is temporarily unavailable, but it will be back next week. Urban Decay has a place you can sign up on the home page where you can get a notification.

      Also, if you love neutrals, the original Urban Decay palette might be something to consider:

    I ordered the palette a few days ago and I can’t wait to try out different looks! I just have a question about the cheek tint – would you say that it’s too bright to wear everyday? Or, does it just depend on the amount of product you apply to your cheeks?

    Thank you!

Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a.
