Urban Decay Naked2 Basics - review and swatches

Who doesn't love matte neutrals? My original Naked Basics has had much love, and a beautiful friend gifted this palette to me for Christmas. This palette is much more cool-toned than the original Naked Basics, but this makes it a more suited palette for the winter time, and a great palette for smokey eyes!

Skimp is described as a 'pale nude satin', and this is the only shade in the palette with a slight shimmer. Stark is a 'nude-pink matte', Frisk is a grey-toned taupe, and is described by Urban Decay as a 'warm grey matte'. Cover is a 'muted red-brown matte'. Primal is a 'muted brown matte', and Undone is described as 'deep, smokey brown matte'.

The original Naked Basics is one of my favourite palettes of all time. It complements with any palette you have, as long as you have the Naked Basics, you really can make any look. I feel the same about this palette. You have crease colours, a highlight shade, and a dark matte shade that can serve as a liner. Urban Decay shadows are pigmented, so you're never disappointed.

Overall, I would recommend comparing both palettes in shades to see which one you would get more use from. I am a strong believer in the fact that you can never have too many neutrals, so I'm quite content owning and using both. Both of these palettes are staples in completing any eye look.
