So Naked Dark is darker than Naked Deep Dark? If so, I definitely need to get Naked Deep Dark pronto!
You make a good point Pixie. When I got my Naked Deep Dark pigment a few months back, I skipped Naked Dark because I thought it was too light. Although I LOVE Deep Dark, if Naked Dark is darker, I need to pick it up. This was the blog post that helped me decide between the two:

Naked Dark is slightly darker than Deep Dark on me even though in jar DD is much darker.
Like Richelle said, ND swatches darker, and very yellow, even tho NDD is darker.
Do u have the regular naked?? Im not getting it but i did order naked deep dark
im glad to know its not lighter than naked dark because i think naked dark is light enough for me lol I cant even see naked on u lol. The difference between naked dark and naked is so drastic I believe naked dark is lighter that deep dark. So no naked dark?
why did you go for deep dark instead?
Naked is my exact skintone plus gold shimmer. I'm pasty-ass white, gurl! :blink:
Better than Vanilla? :agree: Got me feelin' all left out. I know. I just added them to my cart after this swatch-fest. I need to find someone who sells sample containers. I keep collecting nudes and probably don't need too many more.
Naked is a more natural highlight than vanilla, which is more dramatic. So not better than, just different than.
Now i want the pigments too!! Lol i wanna try that look Erine suggested with deep dark. What brush(es) work best with pigments?
I use the 239 for pigments on the lid. I don't use pigments in the crease. Too much shimmer for a crease. I use matte shadows in the crease.
ERINE - thank you thank you thank you for coming up with that suggestion for the 'Naked' look!!! I totally forgot that I had Naked from one of the Holiday sets, and tried it with Espresso in the crease today. The PRETTIEST natural look I've ever tried for sure! LOVE. :eyelove: I just got a few pesky sparkles over my undereye area. Do you use MM with pigments? Or what's the best way to prevent having powder/sparkles everywhere? For everyone wanting to buy samples - I've bought stuff from The Body Needs before and can recommend them.:nods:
You're welcome dear :winkiss: To avoid shimmer fallout, just do your eye makeup first. Or, if you prefer face first, take a bit of scotch tape and use it to sticky-up the fallout. Works with glitter too!
[COLOR=0000FF] Erine, I've been thinking-----I'd like to kidnap you and compel (I wouldn't water-board you or anything extreme if[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] you cooperate) you tell me everything that you know about makeup. You just [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]give the best tips ever. I put[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] makeup on today to go to the farmer's market just so I could use cream blush under my foundation again----the[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] outcome is just that amazing to me.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] [/COLOR]
Ok! I might resist, just a lil bit
:con: You just hit your 10000th post! Enjoy your complimentary freak-out!
