Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Review!

 Hi everyone!
 I am super excited for this review I have for you today. It's the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette! I must say that I am absolutely in love with this palette. I have had it for about 2 months now, and I have worn it everyday since I got it! So lets jump into the review!

This is what the outside of the palette looks like. It is made
of I think aluminum, and it looks very fancy in my opinion,
I want to set it out as a decoration! 

So you open up the palette and this is what you see! 12
beautiful shades, a mirror, and a brush!

Here's a look at the first four colors, starting from the left. 
First color is Foxy- a matte buttery/cream shade perfect as 
a highlight! Next up is Half Baked- a beautiful shimmery gold
color. This color makes blue eyes POP! Third is Bootycall- a 
shimmery pink/silvery/tanish color. It is actually kind of hard to
describe, but this is one of my favorite colors in the palette! Fourth
is Chopper- a copper, rusted brown color. This shade is very
pretty, for some reason it screams elegant, at least it does to me!

Now these are the swatches of the above colors. As you can
(or cannot) see, the first swatch of Foxy does not show up 
very much at all. I think it is because it is pretty much almost
my skin tone, but I am super pale so anyone tanner than me
would be happy with this color! Next is Half Baked, can you 
see how pretty that shade is?! The swatch just shows how pigmented
it is. Love! The third swatch is of Bootycall and you can't really 
see that much of a color, but you can see the shimmer and its
super pretty used as a lid color! The last swatch is of Chopper
and it looks like a super saturated color, so pigmented! 

And here is the next set of four shadows, (from left to right)
Tease- a matte purpley/brown color PERFECT for the crease.
Snakebite- a deep mocha brown with shimmer. Suspect- a darker 
than usual champagne color, this also looks like an elegant color. 
And the fourth color Pistol- a gray/taupe/gunmetally color, this would 
be pretty used as a liner or in a smokey look.

The first swatch is Tease, I use this color every day in my 
crease. You can see it isn't super pigmented but it is
definitely build able. Second is Snakebite- OMG this color
is SO rich and pigmented. I can so see this color as a liner
color. Third is Suspect. As you can see it swatches a little lighter
than it appears in the pan but still very beautiful. Last swatch is 
Pistol. The swatch makes this color look a little more brown than 
it really is but it is still very beautiful. This color is a little dark for
me to wear on the lid but if it was a part of the smokey eye it would 
be perfect!

The first color in this set of 4 is Verve- a silvery tan color
that I LOVE! I switch up between this color and Bootycall
which one I wear on the lid. It's SO pretty! Next is YDK- it
is very similar to Chopper but a bit more brown, and YDK has 
chunky glitter pieces in it, fallout! Busted is next- this color is also
very similar to Snakebite, but it is deeper and darker. Definitely a
liner color, for me at least. Last color we have is Blackout- a matte black.
Nothing special with this color but it is nice to have. 

So the first swatch, Verve, you can see the silvery/tan 
hues in it. Its very shimmery and beautiful, I love wearing this
color on the lid! Next is YDK and you can kind of see the glitter
particles showing, and also how much this looks like Chopper.
Third you can see Busted, it is not as shimmer as Snakebite and
is is a deeper color. And Blackout is kind of patchy, but a lot
of matte shades are like that. It looks like there are shimmers 
in it but I think that is just left over from previous swatches.

All of these shades are soft and easy to work with. This palette is perfect for anyone who loves to do natural eye looks, or even smokey eyes! I recommend this palette to everyone!

Have a great day!
