Last weekend, I went to Ulta and found a bunch of the new Urban Decay Naked 2 Palettes! I've been debating for the longest time whether or not I wanted to purchase it since I own the first naked palette already. It retails for $50.00 on the Urban Decay website as well as at Ulta and Sephora, I believe. I decided, why not, it's kept my attention for this long! Unfortunately, my 20% off coupon couldn't be applied to the new palette, so I paid full price for it. Bummer! :( So here is my first impression; this may change once I get the chance to play around with it a bit more. -Fresh
Here is what the packaging looks like:
The Naked 2 has sturdier packaging that feels like tin and clicks shut while the older Naked palette is a velvety cardboard packaging that has a magnetic closure (which I actually prefer). |
You really have to do a double-take to realize these are two different palettes. (Top: Naked 2 | Bottom: 1st Naked) However after a close inspection, we noticed that the Naked2 is geared more towards the lighter and silvery side and the older Naked palette leans towards the warmer and deeper tones.

I do see myself reaching for the Naked 2 palette a lot more in the future and here's why:
What makes this palette stand out is the fact that there is a matte highlight color (Foxy) and a matte black (Blackout).There are matte colors in the new palette that will help create softer and more natural looks (I especially love the color tease). I like the fact that there aren't as many glittery eye shadows- I was never a big fan of glitter in my makeup. Finally, the cooler shades might compliment my skin-tone more (I'm an NC-20/25).
What I wished was different:
I wanted to see a lot more matte colors in the Naked 2, but the metallic shades are still gorgeous. I didn't care much for the idea to have "Half-Baked" in both palettes; I would've much rather had the color "Naked" in both if they HAD to keep one the same. A lot of the colors in both palettes are fairly close in color and finish. I will swatch the colors soon to show to what the similarities/differences are if that's what our readers would like to see.
Do you need both?
We think that though both palettes have beautiful shades and colors, you do NOT NEED to have both. It's really a matter of preference. If you tend to like browns more, we recommend the first Naked palette. If you like use more purples and taupes, we recommend the Naked 2. We can see using either one of the palettes for very similar eye-makeup looks.
What did you guys think of the new Naked 2 palette?
