Review and Makeup look: Naked 2 Palette



I haven't had chance to try the Naked 2 Palette all week, it's been sat on my dressing table waiting for me. I've seen tons and tons of posts on beauty blogs already about it. Some saying it isn't very pigmented while others are saying they love it. I agree with both. Luckily, for me I am pale so the original Naked Palette would be too intense for day looks personally. So this palette for me has shades which I can wear in the daytime and shades that I can use for nightime. They are so creamy and the only one I have had problems with pigmentation with is 'Foxy' but that is purely from when I was trying to take photos for swatches. I have used it for a base for my shadows which works perfectly to even out your eyelid. I have posted a photo of my eye closer up so you can see the colour more easier. Today I wore 'Bootcall' on my lid, 'YDK' on the outer corner and through the crease and 'Half Baked' on the inner corner and under the eye. These are all the lightest of shades and they have given a lovely dimension to my eyes. I also used 'Blackout' which is the perfect matte black in the eyelashes to give them a fuller effect.
I'm glad I decided to purchase the palette. I was currently using the MUA Heaven and Earth one but the lasting power is not as good as this. Although for the price and pigmentation it is a bargain. It will be perfect for travelling as I won't have to take any other shades. It is all in one place.

  1. I've been debating whether or not to get this as I already have the original Naked pallet, but after reading this I'm soooo tempted. I agree with you that this is more of a daytime pallet as I never use my Naked pallet for day time looks. Also your eyeshadow in this post looks absolutely beautiful so I'm sooo tempted now, ahh!! hehe :) Great review :) xx

  2. LUCKYYYY! I'm not a huge eyeshadow junkie so I'm going to pass on the palettes but I'll probably eventually succumb and buy it!

    1. Luckily, I haven't got the original palette so could justify it :)
