UD shadows do not have parabens, so UD.

It totally depends on the look you are going for, but i've been hunting for ud naked for like a year and just ordered it from ud.com, i would say naked because it has more colors with different finishes (and im a brown shadow girl) but i use this palette for the days i dont want to do my eyes up; you still have somethng on and they look good without having it be too much or when you are layin around the house...the colors of both are very flattering to all skin tones too.

I prefer this one over the UD naked. The UD pallet has a lot of colors I had in other pallets from UD and they were colors I didn't use. Most of the left side of the UD one was a bit dark for my tastes. I am very fair and blonde. The Too Facednaked colors are much nicer than they look online, they have a lot of depth and are not too much on the cool side. Satin sheets, unmentionables, and lap dance are my favorites

This is more cooler toned than the urban decay naked palette, however if you get the Too Faced Natural Eye Palette instead of the Too Faced Naked Eye, it is more warm toned like the UD palette. I honestly like the Too Faced palette better than the Urban Decay because TF seems to have a more buttery texture to me than the UD. Don't get me wrong, the Urban Decay is great too, but I just lean more towards Too Faced. But yeah, I think the Natural Eye palette would have some closer dupes than this one. If you want more cooler tones, though, go with this one over the natural eye.

I don't find the colors to be too cool at all. This product is a great purchase, I have to reccommend that you take the plunge. You won't regret it.

I believe the too faced palette will work for all skin tones! It's great.

Your problem is exactly why I bought Two Faced. I wished it had more colors too but I gave up and really think that they go well with my complexion. I'm fair and blond.

There are two colors that have some shimmer to them, but if you don't add alot of those colors then you won't have that shimmery look. There are these neat helper cards with the set, with pictures of where each color goes, and the shimmer is added as a highlight- not the main color. This is a good neutral-eye set.

i have always loved too faced cosmetics, they are highly pigmented , when you go to order, look for if the shadows are matte or shimmery, most sets have a mix of both

I, like many others, have been waiting to get a Urban Decay Naked Palette, but decided to pick up the Too Faced Naked Palette in the mean time. If you do not care too much for shimmer, then this palette is amazing. It is definitely cooler than the UD naked Palette, containing more grays and taupes than bronzes and browns, which I did not think would work for me since I have warm undertones. All in all, I love this palette, and I am not at all disappointed. It has some beautiful colors that have amazing payoff. I am still curious to try the UD palette, but am happy with this in the meantime.

I too love Urban Decay and I'm sure you will love this set. I found these colors to be very practical. You can wear them during the day and add a bit more of the darker shades at night. I've received many compliments since I've been wearing these colors.

I found the UD Naked Palette at an Ulta. Couldn't believe it, I've been waiting for Sephora to restock. I snatched it up! It's a great palette. Sorry I can't help with the Two Faced.

I own both and I think they are both very different palettes dispite both having "Naked" in them. This palette is fantastic and good value and what I like is that you can create a variety of looks for both day or night and there's a nice variety of colors. Its hard for me to decide between the two, but I would check this one out. But the two are not very similar.

A couple of the shades are shiny, some are a soft shimmer and the rest are matte, pretty much as described above. Unmentionables and Lap Dance are shiny.

This palette is definitely worth purchasing. Many other eyeshadows are around the $20 price range. Also the colors are very versatile and can be used to create many different looks.

YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS best palette i've ever owned!!!! diregard the cue cards however! I like to pair satin sheets with like a virgin, lap dance with unmentionables, and unmentionables with stiletto!

I think this product is worth it if you like neutrals and wear them often. The colours are very subtle but add a good 'day time' look. You can also mix and match different combinations so you have a lot of options with this collection. So I'd say for the 9 different complementary shades $35 isn't a bad price.

TOTALLY worth it!

You get nine beautiful, high-quality and versatile eyeshadows for $35. That's less than $4 an eyeshadow. Plus the kit comes with fun little cards that show you a la paint-by-numbers how to create three differnt looks with the palette's shadows. Absolutely worth it!

Most Definitely!!

it is COMPLETELY worth it! I am tempted to buy a back up, in case I can't find one when I run out!

I purchased it for $35. I think its a little pricey and wish it was cheaper. However, good makeup are costly. You get what you pay for.

Yep! I use all of the colors in the box!

Personally I believe yes. It allows you alot of experience to play and get to know waht you really like and have fun at the same time with the how to cards. It is also very useable, all the colors, so you are not left with waste. The darkest color can also be an eyeliner with the liquid transformer...So you can do your whole eye look minus Mascara for the cost..

Totally worth it very pretty colors.

Yes! It's so fun to play with all the colors and experiment with different combinations. Think about it - for the price, you are getting nine different shadows that can be made into endless combinations. And the tutorial cards are super helpful.

When it comes to eye colour, I always have an extremely hard time finding colours that work; but I can assure you that, be it grey, green, and or blue, this palette will work for you perfectly. (something weird in my genetics, my eyes change colour)
When it comes to hair colour, I always have an extremely hard time finding colours that work as well; but again, I can assure you, be it blonde, bright blond, dark blonde, red, brunette, auburn, dark brown, or even black, this palette will work wonders for you (another weird inherited trait, I don't have just 1 hair colour, I was born with all the natural colours in a big mess on my head -.- lol)

Not if you ike bold and bright. This is a naked palette. I suggest kat von d, who has much brighter palettes, or Urban Decay.

If you like bold, this might be a little too subtle for you. But, both my 17 yr old daughter and I love it. I have to keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't disappear.

hi
Im blonde with blue eyes as well and i love these colors. Im only tanned in the summer and i cant see why im not gonna use this eye shadows then. they are very easy to use since you have 9 different shadows you can play around with and its really worh the money.
I hope this was some help for you!

I think this set is a great value but if you aren't into blacks and greys, you aren't going to be pleased with stiletto (matte black) at all. Unmentionables and lap dance aren't exactly greys, but they do have greyish, taupe tones. It sounds like another palette would be more to your liking. Personally, I love this palette. I'm also pale but my eyes are green and my hair is red.

This kit looks great on anyone with a fair skin tone.i have brown hair, blue eyes and pale skin. The colors are soft enough not to overpower me, but can still look dramatic.

I bought this for myself but plan on using it on my friend who has blue eyes. This does contain a matte black but has some really pretty brown and pink shades that will probably compliment your eyes and make them pop. It also has a great shade for highlighting on the brow bone. I'm pretty tan and it didn't clash with me. I thought it was a good value, it's definitely going to become a stable for me because of the neutral. Read the reviews and look at some other products if you're not completely sold yet.

You are probably better off with the Too Faced Romantic Eye Classic collection. It's not that cheap just to let it sit in your makeup collection.

The colors are neutral yet still pigmented so you can play up something more dramatic or go for a more flirty look. I have light eyes and hair too and i really like this palette. I think you would like it.

Well if you hate blacks and grays, this does contain one of each of those. I love it, though. I have blue-green eyes, but with light brown hair and a lighter skin tone. I also have the natural eye palette, and love it as well. It's more neutral tones and browns. You may want to look at that one for blue eyes, especially if you don't want the blacks or grays!

Nope. You won't like this. It is all neutrals. If you want a good palette with some neutrals and some brights, try Urban Decay's Naked palette. They've also got some great brights you could try.

These colors are perfect for blue eyes. You can make them as light or as dark as you like.

I have a medium skintone and I have no big issues with the shades in the first row showing up, although looking maybe more neutral.

I've attached swatch photos to hopefully help.

I haven't used the natural palette, but I own the naked one and a medium skin tone. The top row of shadows is subtle but it totally works. In The Buff is light enough to stand out against my skin and Like A Virgin is dark enough to define the crease without looking overdone. Pillow Talk is super light though; I use it wet and it looks just like my skin color... only shimmery. Still gorgeous though. Hope this helps!

I don't own the natural palette so I cannot say how it compares. However, the first row does NOT work for me (olive tone). It shows a bit but looks really funny with my tone. Most of the colors on my skin are natural and subtle.

I find in both collections the top row is lighter and i use it less--they would be when I really want light and natural no make up look. I use the middle row mostly on both. great work day looks. Enough to know you are wearing it, but pretty and natural. The bottom, for more of natural look with darker liner. I find natural collection is warm with golden undertones, while naked is cooler and slightly more pink. Hope this helps.

the colors are different enough that you could use both kits. I prefer the top row myself because it is less shimmer and very natural looking. Guess it depends on what you are looking for in an eyeshadow palette.

I think they are different enough to warrant buying both. I have both. The other one is more browns - this is more greys - they both come with the lighter shades - but I think you cant have enough lighter shades. Also, try a primer for the lighter shades - they come out bolder and brighter - I couldnt wear without eye primer.

You might not like this one the colors are similar to the first set of rows on the natural eye kit. If you are looking for something to be more bold then this is not the eye shadow for you.

I've got light-fair skin with brown eyes and hair and it takes a heavy application to get more than just a bit of color that enhances. If you're looking for something that really adds some pigment, only two or three of the available nine colors will work for you. I'd skip this one if the other palette isn't strong enough for you.

I have very fair skin and I had the same problem with the Natural Eye palette (I actually use "Heaven" as an under-eye concealer), but I am loving the Naked Eye natural trio. It is very light, but it's more taupe than flesh coloured so I find it shows up a lot more on my skin.

To answer your second question, I definitely find them different enough to be worth it. I use the Natural Eye palette when I'm matching to more of a gold oriented look (I always match makeup to jewellery etc.) and the Naked Eye to silver. I had the same concern but was able to try it on at a Sephora before buying and was pleasantly surprised.

The first row of shadows are very light and will probably not show up on a complexion darker than fair.

I have a light-medium skin tone as well. The top row is supposed to be a "day time look" so it's supposed to be a really light, natural color. It doesn't show up very well on me either, but I add the last color (Like A Virgin) into my crease and it deepens it out/brightens the inner corner. Hope I helped :)

I have both the Naked & Neutral palettes and I like and dislike certain shadows out of each one - but I find that it's just a matter of personal preference on which one is "better". In general, I find the Naked palette to be more subtle, less shimmery, more cool-toned, and overall more sophisticated than the Neutral palette, which seems to make more of an impact, is more shimmery/sparkly, warm-toned, and seems a bit more youthful than the Naked palette. I personally like the Naked palette better, as the colors compliment my skin better and I tend to avoid very shimmery shadows, but I still use a few of the shadows out of the Neutral palette.

I think the neutral is more usable overall - much more basic and goes with everything - Soft and Sexy is a little dressier, for going out, clubs, etc., but both are beautiful.

I love the Naked palette - the colors are perfect for everyday use! They are soft and muted, apply and blend easily, and look very natural (not made up). I am very fair and this palette is great for me, but may be too light for darker complexions.

I personally love the Naked one, although you couldn't go wrong with any of this series.

I have both. Naked is more subtle, Neutral you'll see a bit more.

I like the naked because it gives you the option to have a "naked" look or an extreme dark "fashion" look.

I would choose the Naked palette just because the Neutral includes pretty basic shades of brown you can get anywhere. This has beautiful shimmery shades and also shades that can be used as a dramatic liner.

They're both pretty and can be neutral, However, Neutral is very shimmery. Lots of sparkle. That was the deciding factor for me and the reason I went with Naked.

Naked is a nice mix of colors. Looks great with my blue/green eyes. I think they would complement brown eyes as well.

Neutral

if you want more shine and bold colors, go for natural, if you want a pretty everyday look, go naked

The look you're talking about is in fact the Day look.

I've attached a pic of the Day look card and of the palette up close.

it is the classic eye. I use it all the time. It would look fabulous.

The picture on the outside doesn't really match the cards on the inside, but if I had to guess I'd say it's Classic

When I got this case and saw the little cards I ask myself the same question as you! While tacking a good look at it and doing all the looks on my eyes I figured out that the eye on the cover isnt any of the cards! To me the cover is just another example they give you but with out instructions. The eye on the cover is very very easy to do. Once you will buy this case you will proboply understand how to do it since I guess you will practice diffrent looks with it.
The three cards they give you are juste simple ideas but trust me you can do so many diffrent looks with the palet without the cards.

If you want to know how to do the eye on the cover follow theese steps:

1. Apply In The Buff on your brow bone and on the iner corner on your eyes.
2. Sweep on Satin Sheets on your eye lids
3. Brush on Like A Virgin on you outer lid in a V kind of way, blending it would make a much more natural and soft look
4. Take Like A Virgine again and swipe it down your lower lash line
5. YOUR DONNE!

Based on the cards in the naked set, I believe it is the day look. The actual set looks icy blue green eye vs blue eye (FYI).
I have natural set (warm golden under tones) vs naked (cool pink undertones) Both are flattering in all three combos. Natural/naked but slightly different. Both look good on everyone I've given it too.
Now I like the Romanic set. But I call it more natural fun. All three looks are completely different color palettes. Day is natural browns, classic is pink and flattering lilac with a deep purple liner, fashion is glittery very light army green for center of lid and brown with copper flecks for liner lid. All three looks have looked nice on me, but not as everyday natural/naked ease. I use romanic when I want a bit of natural fun that day. Hope this helps

Day. and yes I think it would look good on you.

i am pretty sure that one is fashion. i have never worn eye shadow cause i never knew ho to do it. but ever since i got this kit i cant live without it. and i get sooo many compliments on how good it looks. even by complete stramgers. get it!!!!

The cover is the "Day" look. I use it every day for work. The colors are soft enough for anyone and you can build it up if you want too. I like the other looks too but the "Day " look is my favorite. Hope this helps.

I have the same eyes, skin, and hair color. Love it with my complexion.

I think it is Fashion, but I also think that it is more of combo between fashion and classic. You can mix all of the colors together and it looks great. I have brown eyes that sometimes look hazel/green. Light skin and brown hair. It is fantastic.

There is no ice blue in this kit. Its only grays, browns and pinks.

Try the natural palette by too faced.

I think you could wear it, but you would have to work with it. I am cool undertones, and I can wear warm colors. I just have to play with them more.

I don't know how it will look on you, but I do think this palette has more cool tones than the natural palette.

Is this a good palette? Yes. BUT, it is not the *best* for your skin tone. This palette works best on fair-skinned women with cooler undertones.

I would NOT recommend this palette if you are looking for nudes:
-The nude colors (birthday suit, pink cheeks, pillow talk, like a virgin) will look ashy on you, and won't be as flattering as warmer-toned nudes. That being said, all the colors in this palette are gorgeous and well-pigmented.
-Instead, go for Urban Decay's Naked palette (I heard rumors that Naked2 has cooler tones, but I may be wrong).

I would recommend this palette if you want a good smokey eye palette, or need some good-quality basic shadows:
-Unmentionables and Lapdance are great smokey colors--they're not too heavy, and can be worn during the day
-Stiletto is a REALLY well-pigmented black shadow--I don't have any others that are this good. You could wear it as a liner!
-In the Buff is a great browbone highlighter--it's matte and not too obvious, great for everyday wear. Most browbone highlighters are too shimmery or too white--this is the best I have.
-Satin Sheets is a to-die for color! Beautiful on any skin tone.

I have light-medium skin with golden/yellow undertones. I ALSO have the Urban Decay Naked palette, but I always keep coming back to this palette for those great staple colors. The browbone highlighter in UD's palette is too shimmery, and the darkest color isn't pitch-black like this one. For my daily look, I use both palettes.

BOTTOM LINE: need great staple colors? look here. need nudes? get UD's Naked.

I have very cool-pale coloring & this kit is perfect for me - I did not choose the one you have because it seemed like the colors were much warmer with more yellow-undertones. Personally, I would stick with what you have - most of these are neutrals but some are definitely on the cool side.

This will work just fine

A little colour never hurt anyone. I would say that there is a good chance that this collection will look amazing on you! You never want to just blend in with your skin tone; make sure some part of you face is dominant, be it lips or shadow. You can always blend the colour in if it is too much for you.

I have warm undertones as well, so I was not sure if the cool colors in the Too Faced Naked Palette would really work on me, but it does not disappoint! You have to play around with the colors and figure out how to blend so that they do not end up looking to grey-ish, but overall, this definitely works on warmer skin tones.

Mostly cool tones.

Buy it! These shades are neutral and will look great on warm skin. I also have warm undertones, and I love the naked palette!

I thinkt his kit is more suited for pinker-toned ladies. Two of the looks you can create have grayish tones, and the third contains all taupes but they definitely have a "cool" look to them.

No, it will look good for your skin tone, since it is more so as neutral colors, it will give you a soft and subtle look. some of the colors that it includes looks great on all skin tones for example "Like a Virgin" is a taupe and looks good on all skin tones.

USA but it has parabens. i would rather a paraben free product made elsewhere.

mine says "Bulk made in USA, Assembled in Dominican Republic"

Made in the USA :)

US

It is "bulk" made in the USA, but assembled in the Dominican Republic.

"Bulk Made in the USA, assembled in Dominican Republic" From the sticker on the back of the box

The majority of the product is made in the US but it is assembled in the Dominican Republic. It's staed on the back of the package. :]

Both Nake and natural say made in USA. Romanic collection says bulk made in USA, assembled in Dominican republic

on the back it states bulk made in USA, assembled in Dominican Republic

The box says it is made in the USA

Made in USA!

Absolutely! I have green eyes and wear apple green framed glasses. The colors are very neutral and flattering, and can easily be accented with more intense colors for evening.

I don't think these shades would make green eyes pop. They are very very light-almost translucent. Literally gives a Naked Eye look.

This color palette works great for green eyes. Mine are green-brown hazel and these neutrals are good for bringing out the green without making me look sickly like some neutrals tend to.

the colors in this kit are great for hzl/grn eyes......the key to get green eys to pop is a good color lipstick, a nice redish brown.

I meant to say in yesterdays answer that your best bet is to go try them at the store....the girls enjoy *making you over* and that way you'll see how it looks.I have the Neutral....more day time colors....and it looks really nice.One of them is too dark for me unless I went out to a club in the evening which I don't do.For day time the Naked/Neutral works great.I'm into looking *natural* and wearing almost black or blue etc. isn't for me...especially not during the day.I just kind of want to *glow*/look pretty without being super obvious why I look good,haha.Hope you understand what I mean :)

I personally think that this kit would work for all eye colors.

My eyes are blue/green depending on what I'm wearing etc. I've gotten lots of compliments since I've been wearing this eye shadow.I think it works great but that's just MY opinion. As I said in another review I like for my make up to look natural like I'm not wearing any and this eye shadow does that for me.It just makes your eyes *pop* :)

YES.

It's a subtle pop, but the colors are so gorgeous and if you use Stiletto as a liner (I use it dry for some extra definition) it will help a lot, too.

absolutely, and just as lovely on my daughters Brown eyes

Absolutely! Makes the eyes stand out.

no, it comes with 3 rows of different looks. and the pull out drawer is only for the brushes. :) its totally worth buying.

Just one color pallet is there, but underneath it there is a brush compartment.

Just one palette and one dual tipped applicator.

Just one palate, but it will last you for a long time. These are high-quality shadows so you don't need to use a lot to achieve the look you want.

one, the lowwer pullout is for the included brush

One palette is included. Considering that the shadows are highly pigmented, for the price it's a good deal.

It's actually three... there are three base colors and three sets of two deeper colors. There are three cute little face cards with instructions for application.

it's just one palatte, but you can create 3 different looks with it, or make your own.

There's only one palette, which is the one on the picture .

This is one collection consisting of 9 eyeshadows.
