Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Review ♥

Hey beauties! ♥

Today I'm going to be doing a review of the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette! I know I'm sooo late doing this review, but I really wanted to do it anyway! ♥

 

The palette retails at £36 and you can buy it here! It is said that the Naked 1 palette is a warm palette, the Naked 2 is a cold palette, and the Naked 3 is a mix of the both! For £36, you get 12 neutral eyeshadows in a variety of finishes (matte, shimmer and micro-glitter). ♥

 

 

 

 

 

The packaging is more sturdy than the original Naked palette, the outer packaging is a rectangular tin, with a snap lock top which means it won’t fall open in your make-up bag like the 1st palette did. It also has a humongous mirror, which is just perfect! So overall, Urban Decay did an amazing job at stepping up their packaging with the Naked 2! ♥

 

 

 

 

The palette also comes with a duo-ended Eye Shadow brush. One end is a general shading brush, and the other is a fairly large and fluffy blending brush! I honestly couldn't live without this brush, it's so useful and just amazing! So yet again, Urban Decay did a fantastic job at upgrading the general shading brush in the original Naked palette to a duo ended Eyeshadow brush in the Naked 2. ♥

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Onto the shades! ♥

Foxy: A creamy shade with a matte finish.

Half Baked: A bronze gold with shimmer.

Bootycall: A shimmery bronzey/orange shade.

Chopper: A copper shimmer with silver micro-glitters.

Tease: A creamy pale brown with a matte finish.

Snakebite: A dark bronze shimmery shade with a metallic sheen to it!

Suspect: A taupey but beautiful neautral shade!

Pistol: A Grey/brown shade with a gorgeous shimmer running through it!

Verve: A silvery shimmery lid shade.

YDK: A very easy to wear cool bronze shimmery shade:

Busted: A very deep cool oak brown. Looks gorgeous on the outer V.

Blackout: A very well pigmented matte black.

 

Overall I love the palette! However I am not allowed Eyeshadow for school, and I have school 5 days a week which means this palette can only get use on weekends, which I'm sometimes to lazy to do anyway! ♥

 

I'd only recommend this palette if you truly thought you would actually use it, it is a very pricey (but obviously beautiful) palette which has many dupes out there! ♥

New Years Resolutions 2014 ♥

Hey loves! ♥
I'm back blogging again! So I decided to kick off 2014 with my resolutions! I don't have too many, mainly because it's so hard for me to keep at them! But I thought I'd talk to you all about the ones I have. ♥

My first resolution is to be healthier. This is not me saying I am dieting, I just feel like I eat a lot of rubbish and I'm tired of it! Eating unhealthily is back for your body, and skin, and is just not good! So instead of some crisps or something I've been eating apple and grapes etc, and I'm feeling much better about myself! ♥

My next resolution is to be kinder. I'm not a mean person, but sometimes I feel like I say things that aren't necessary, and I complain, A LOT! Leading a positive life as well as speaking and thinking positively can have a large impact on your life and how you live it. ♥





My final resolution is to have more self-confidence, living confidently within your own skin can be very challenging. Especially being a teenager, there's so many figures that people expect you be, when in reality, you just really need to be yourself. I find myself comparing myself to others a lot too, which is very bad. I've come to the realization that others cannot love and accept you if you cannot learn to love and accept yourself. Now I am trying to accept my flaws and live life the way it should be lived! ♥

I'm thinking of writing a blog post on self confidence, what do you guys think? ♥

 Thankyou all for reading! ♥

Products I've Used Up #1 ♥

Hey beauties! First off I wanted to start with an apology for not finishing the 12 Days Of Blogmas, I have my reasons but all of that can wait! Anyway, this post is going to be a 'Products I've Used Up', these are really popular on YouTube so I thought I'd bring that over to Blogger! ♥


The first product I've used up is the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation! I have a whole separate blog post on this foundation, but as a brief overview I can say I really do like this foundation but definitely want to try other foundations before repurchasing this! ♥

The next product is one that I have gone through so many times! It is (of course!) the massively hyped up Rimmel Stay Matte Powder! This is hands down the best powder I have ever tried, it does exactly what it says and keeps you matte! At just a few pounds I will always repurchase this powder and have already gone through 3! ♥

Next I have a few mascaras that I've used up! The first is the Maybelline The Rocket Mascara. I do like this mascara, however I don't think it's anything super special and isn't really worth the price. Another Mascara is the ColourTrend Plump Out Mascara! No one seems to have come across the ColourTrend brand, but my friend bought me this a while ago and I really did like it, but it was discontinued. ♥

My final emptie is a Ted Baker Eyeshadow Pigment! I have legit no idea where this is from as it was a gift, but me and my mum both absolutely love this pigment! It's such a gorgeous champagne coloured loose Eyeshadow and its just seriously so beautiful! Id love to repurchase this! ♥

Thank you all for reading and I will definitely do these as often as I have new empties! ♥
