I don`t have the first one either, but after seeing swatches I still think the first 1 is a better option. The reason for not buying is that I have 2 full palettes of mac neutrals ( brown based) plus a few light pinks and 1 full palette of highlighteres and I cand dupe most of them. The hype still gets me sometimes, so far I stiil want some nars eyeshadows more than the naked (all neutrals go figure) but If I would have money sitting around ( lol) I would buy both_ that`s the make-up fanatic in me speaking

I REALLY like the first Naked palette. And it seems the better of the 2 based on initial reviews and swatches. But I like the packaging of Naked2. Definitely not necessary to have both. The benefit of these palettes for me is convenience when traveling. If I didn't travel so much, I would just stick with my MAC palettes as well. Don't fall victim of just the hype girl! At the end of the day, I have to keep telling myself that they're JUST eyeshadows... And, as you said, easily dupe-able! HeeHee

LOL! I think the release of this palette was a surprise for everybody. Rumor had it that it was going to be released in the beginning of next year. I guess UD wanted to rake in on that holiday money lol

Holy COW!!! My package arrived TODAY! THAT was FAST! Opening it now. Kinda fitting that I did my eyeshadow today with my first Naked Palette. My sister's been hinting around that she'd like one, so now I have to decide if I should get her 1 or 2?

WOW! SUPER impressed with the new packaging! Not only is it more solid with the metal outer casing, it snaps shut VERY solidly, AND all the shadows are secured into the palette in solid secure plastic casing... NOT cardboard surrounding the shadows like the first Naked Palette. One of my complaints with the first Naked is that some of my shadows seem to be lifting out of the case. Like I could pop them out very easily. In this new Naked2, they are very secure in hard plastic. The improvement on the mirror is also worth mentioning... the first Naked's mirror was pretty much worthless, the Naked2 mirror is HUGE, and I can see myself actually using it!
Haven't tried the shadows yet, but they look nice... lots of reviews popping up for them anyways, so I just wanted to state some things I noticed upon first glance that I haven't really heard anywhere yet. I'm definitely happy I purchased this, despite people reviewing that if you had Naked 1 you probably didn't need Naked2. For me, as a constant traveler, it comes down to better and more useful packaging... and the double ended brush is one I will actually use! Not like a lot of crappy useless palette brushes.
BTW... also got a free sample of Eldorado 24/7 pencil with my order from Urban Decay. Very nice. And, as I mentioned before, I ordered 2 full sized Primer Potions in Greed and Sin at only $10 each! That's a great deal on the older style bottle! So, if you order from Urban Decay's website when they re-stock, make sure you browse the SALE tab for some great items (like the older bottle Primer Potions)!

I'm deciding if I should wait next month for the Naked 2 Palette to be released at Sephora or get it online next week. I cannot decide at this moment lol

Just a little tidbit ladies... If you go to the UD website and click on that link for emails about upcoming stuff and info on availability of the Naked2 Palette, you will get an email that gives you a 10% off code! The code is good on your entire purchase, including the Naked Palettes! Plus with free shipping! So, if you aren't that concerned about your Sephora points... You could save a little cash! Hope you like it, it's really nice!

this is exactly what I did! I didn't even know they gave you a code for a discount when I first signed up, but I happily took that few dollars off my new naked palette. Thanks Urban Decay!!

Does Naked 2 have more warmer colors than Naked 1. I find that cooler browns tend to gray out on me, and that just looks like mud. Warmer browns tend to work best for me, unless I am doing a smoky eye. anyway. Are these colors more warm than the last palette?
