During last week's Urban Decay Naked3 pre-release hysteria, I decided to bust out Naked2. I held off on buying Naked2 for a loooooooong time because I was so happy with the original Naked palette and used it on a near daily basis. I'd been curious about Naked2, but didn't feel the need to add it to my collection until I swatched it at ULTA and swooned over 2 shades: YDK, a cool bronze, and Pistol, a light brownish-gray taupe. Buying just those two individual shades would have cost $36, so I decided to spend the extra money and get the whole palette which included 12 shadows, a double-ended brush, and a lip gloss.
Since I brought it home, I've been pretty devoted to YDK and most of the other shadows have gone unloved. I figured it was high time that I played the proverbial shadow field! Last week I challenged myself to use only Naked2 every morning to create different eye looks. Here's what I came up with!

My favorite look was Tuesday. I love Pistol!
When I first saw pictures of Naked3, I was really excited because pink-toned shades work best with my skin tone! I signed up (using 2 different email addresses just to be SURE) at Urban Decay's site to be notified when Naked3 was available. I woke up Thursday morning and checked my Instagram feed and there was a comment from Sarah at OneStarryNight alerting me that Naked3 was up on the UD site! I may or may not have run to the computer. :) I was able to purchase Naked3 before it went out of stock and it's set to arrive tomorrow! Sarah, THANK YOU! Because of your awesomeness, I was able to get it! Had I waited to receive the notification email from UD, it would have already been sold out!
What's your favorite shadow combo plate from Naked2? Did you pick up Naked3 before it went out of stock? Are you planning to get it when it's available again?
