Hi, I'm Amelia! I'm a full time student and beauty blogger living and working in the Southeast United States. I'm originally from England and hoping to move back to the UK soon. I'm an absolute beauty junkie (not helped by the fact that I work at a Cosmetics Company Store) and Harry Potter fanatic. If you want to get to know me better, you can read this post.

Naked 2

Okay, so I'm about to confess un unpopular opinion; I don't like the Naked 3 palette. Oops. I just think that all those pinky colors are not going to be flattering for me and I will never use them. Unpopular opinion numero dos; I actually like the Naked 2 palette more than the third. So, with the money I got from my family for Christmas, I bought it.
I was originally going to Ulta to pick up the Lorac Pro palette, but lo and behold, they were out, and I was very sad. So, unable to wait or control myself in the slightest, I snatched up the Naked 2 palette and brought it home with me. And I'm so glad I did. For some reason, this palette doesn't have great reviews. I'm slightly unsure as to why this one got no love and the Naked 3 is being raved about. To me, the shades in 3 are far too pink toned to work for most people, and some of the shades are glittery and bad quality. While I love the shade Blackheart, the others in the palette seem lackluster in comparison. I adored the first palette, but the colors are very warm toned which isn't the most flattering on my skin. I think that the Naked 2 palette is so universally flattering with the taupe-y shades and much more wearable for every day. The shades are matte and frosted versus the crazy glittery shades in the other two and I just think it's much more worth the $52 Urban Decay charges. Now, I've only used this once so I can't really give a proper in depth review, but from what I've seen, this is my new favorite palette, I wore Snakebite, Suspect, Busted, and Blackout today. I worked for 10 hours and they didn't budge. I did also use my UD Primer Potion just to be sure. As a first impression though, I love the choice in shades and how well each of these shades comes across on the skin.

In love!
