I agree! Naked 1 is more value for the price you pay and the shades are awesome. while I love NARS eyeshadows, if you are looking for a right off the bat highly pigmented shadows, you might not find NARS all that appealing. While the quality of the NARS shadows are excellent, the shades esp the lighter to medium ones have a muted quality to it. So someone used to UD or MAC eyeshadows may feel differently about it. But if you are planning to get the NARS palette, NArsissist would be my choice too! HTH
