Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Palette
Hello my lovelies, todays post will be dedicated to teh Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics palette. This piece catched my eye because it is compact and it contains all the everyday go-to shades. The palette contains 6 eyeshadows of which 5 have a matte finish and one has a satin finish. The palette leans cool-toned, but I didn't find it to be strongly cool-toned across the board. The palette is good overall, but the matte shades were a little bit powdery, although they're soft and didn't look powdery or dry on the lid.
The six shades are:
❤ Skimp
❤ Stark
❤ Frisk
❤ Cover
❤ Primal
❤ Undone
Skimp is described as a “pale nude satin.” It’s a light, peachy-beige with a satin finish. It is warmer and has a peach tone to it. It has a good color payoff, the texture is blendable and thinner than it's usual for UD. It lasted on the skin for 8 hours before fading.
Stark is described as a “nude-pink matte.” It’s a muted, peachy-beige with a matte finish and soft, warm undertones. It may be hard to see against my skin tone, as it is very similar to it, but it had good pigmentation, though it was slightly powdery.
Frisk is described as a “warm gray matte.” It’s a light-medium taupe with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The pigmentation had potential, but the somewhat powdery consistent made it so a lot of the pigment didn’t adhere to the skin, which resulted in decent color payoff but not great. If you normally use a primer, you should be okay.
Cover is described as a “muted red-brown matte.” It’s a medium-dark, warm-toned taupe brown with a matte finish. This shade was excellent: great pigmentation, a beautifully soft but buttery and blendable texture.
Primal is described as a “muted brown matte.” It’s a muted, medium-dark brown with soft, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had good color payoff, and the texture was soft, blendable, and only a smidgen powdery.
Undone is described as a “deep, smoky brown matte.” It’s a dark brown with subtle, cool undertones and a matte finish. It had poorer color payoff, and it had a thinner, more powdery consistency that just didn’t apply well. I had trouble blending this shade with the others when I used it in the crease.
