answer 1
I actually have both palettes, and my default everyday eye look is a combination of the two. (Virgin (UD) in the inner corner, Silk Teddy (TF) all over the lid, Naked (UD) on the whole outer half, Buck (UD) in the crease, Sexpresso (TF) on the outer corner.) You can achieve such a wide variety of looks and intensities when you have both palettes. There are, of course, a few similar colors (naked/velvet revolver, sin/silk teddy, smog/push up), but I still find it to be COMPLETELY worth it. If you definitely need to choose just one, the best palette would probably depend on your personal makeup style. The UD Naked palette offers a little bit more all-around variety than the TF Natural Eye, but the TF palette has more in terms of very simple daytime looks. BOTH palettes are fantastic, and if getting both is an option, I'd absolutely go for it.

i found that the too faced palette was less suitable for everyday wear, even the classic, day colors. it just gave off a oily shiny look. the UD gives a much better, smoother look for any occasion

UD Naked palette, hands down. Yes, it is more expensive, but you are getting more colors, excellent primer, and a brush. I don't have Too Faced Natural Eye, but I do own Too Faced Naked Eye, and I regret not taking it back. I'm really unimpressed with the quality of the Too Faced shadows, not to mention the ultra cheap cotton applicator it comes with. Please do yourself a favor and go for Urban Decay.

Personally I would choose this. Although you pay just a tad bit more you get more of a variety. With this palette you can create a very natural eye but this palette also contains enough colors to create a smokey eye as well.

It really depends on what look you desire. Urban Decay is toung in cheek with the title "naked"; even the description says the palette "won't leave you naked". Meaning: if you want the actual, more natural, almost no-eyeshadow, Bella Swan-type look, then you need matte shadows, which "naked" does not offer.
However if you want, a more neutral, yet glam look, then you will want a little more pizazz to your shadows, some shimmer. Althouth too-faced does offer some shimmer neutrals as well "naked', it does not have the same variety nor as many. Thus, this more va-voom version of neutral eye-makeup is more limited with the too faced shadows while the possibilties with 'naked" are more infinite (plus you get some great eyeliner and a deluxe sample of primer).
Bottom Line: If you actually want the true, naked look, the better value is too faced (remember you still get some glitzy neutrals for nighttime). However, if matte shadows do not appeal to you in any way, then spend the extra money on "naked" and you won't be disappointed.

I have both this and the Too Faced Natural Eye kit. While the Too Faced kit is very nice, it has NOTHING on the UD Naked Palette which has more shadows, a double ended liner pencil and a sample of the Primer Potion for only a small amount more than the Too Faced kit. If I could only have one, it would for sure be the UD Naked Palette. If it's not available where you are, though, then the Too Faced is a good alternative.

Two Faced Natural Eye is great for beginners when it comes to applying eyeshadow because it is totally brainless. They match the colours for you and include instructions. But UD Naked has more variety and product but you will have to be open to trying out different combinations but it is safe to say that all the shades in that palette go well with each other. It is smartly created. Both are good.

I plan on getting both. Actually I already own Too Faced's Natural Eye box and I've used it probably almost every single day and my sis and mom borrowed it too. The first three shadows in there are MATTE not sparkly. It seems like the UD ones are all shimmery or sparkly somehow which makes me think "not natural at all" but I havent seen it close up so I could be wrong. If you want something simple, Too Faced. If you want something that allows you to wear a ton of different shades, this one prolly. IDK how big it is IRL so I cant tell you anything about the size and travel friendly wise but the TF one travels pretty well IMHO.

I own both palettes and like them both. I love Urban Decay shadows (my usual favorite brand) and in the NAKED palette, anyone can wear these colors. Very neutral and versatile selection. It also has a double ended pencil and a sample primer potion. Sleek packaging too! The Natural Eye kit by Too Faced is GORGEOUS! It's less expensive-but not less quality. But, if I had to choose I'd go for the Too Faced Natural Eye but they are BOTH beautiful sets.

I actually ended up returning the Too Faced Natural Palette because I knew I wanted to buy the UD Naked Palette when it came out. You get more for your money in terms of product (full shadows, broad range of colors, primer potion, eyeliner.) The packaging is also better on the Urban Decay palette for travel. There were several times I wanted to take the Too Faced palette with me, but its a big thick square box - awkward! Urban Decay's palette is slim and wide, like a large wallet - much better! Overall, the shadows are more unique and gorgeous than TF.... Buy UD!

There really is no way to wear sidecar without getting glitter everywhere. However, there are things to do to have less glitter fallout from this beautiful color.
1) Use a tissue under your eye while applying the color.
2) Use a primer, such as the mini sized bottle of Urban Decay's Primer Potion that comes with this palette.
3) Apply this color before concealer/ foundation and use makeup remover below your eye to get rid of the glitter fallout. This can be helpful when using any eyeshadow.

You've had some good advice here. Two other "tricks" - take a post it note and cut a small curve in the sticky side (leave enough sticky that you can "stick" this under your eye) so it will sort of conform to the shape of your "under-eye" curve. Stick the post it note to the underside of your eye and then apply your shadow. The fall out will fall onto the post it note, which can be removed easily because the adhesive is not very sticky, just enough to hold it in place. There are shields sold for this purpose but they're pricey and post it notes work just as well. You can also use Scotch Magic tape, folded into a loop, sticky side out, to "pick up" all the glitter fallout AFTER you've finished applying the shadow. It won't disturb your concealer or foundation very much at all but will pick up the bits of glitter. I hope this helps. Sidecar is such a beautiful colour that I love using but I think we all battle the glitter in that one. Oh, I've heard that using a damp brush also can help but I haven't yet tried that.

to minimize fallout it helps to foil the eyeshadow (apply it wet) that way the color really sticks to your lids and doesnt transfer to your cheeks throughout the day everytime you blink.
apply it with a wet brush and use a patting motion. you can wet the brush first and then load up the brush eyeshadow or pack the shadow onto the brush first and then spray with water. *instead of water i prefer using mac fix+ or evian facial spray. ive also heard of people using mufe eye seal or even eye drops.

Are you using the primer potion that came with this? It might help to keep the fall out to a minimum. If you're still having problems, you can do one of two things:
1. Do your eye makeup first, that way you can clean up any fallout/mistakes without worrying about messing up the rest of your face makeup.
2. If you've already done your foundation;etc, put an unfolded tissue underneath your eye as you apply your makeup. This should catch most of the fallout.

It winds up costing about 3.67 for each shadow in this palette. I am not factoring in the brush or sample primer, I prefer others. That is about the same cost as drug store, for far far better quality. I do not care what anyone says, you get what you pay for when it comes to makeup.

The greatness of this palette comes in part from the fact that essentially all the colors could work well together when blended (Simply pick a light shade for lid and darker one for your crease for a basic two step look- i.e. Half Baked on the lid and Smog for creasing)
However my favorite look (I wear it sometimes day as well, but it is mostly a look for night):
1.) Sweep Sin on the entire lid
2.) On your outer "v' , blend Darkhorse (going slightly up into the crease)
3.) Blend Hustle into the crease
4.) Line your upper lash line with Darkhorse, then line with the 24/7 black liner
5.) Line your lower lash line with Hustle, then line with 24/7 Black
6.) Finish by sweeping Virgin mixed with Naked (this tones it down a little) as your highlight under your brows
Be sure that when you line with the pencil not to go so thick that it covers the eyeshadow-liner. You could easily skip the pencil liner, but I like the extra drama!

1.) Sweep Sin on the entire lid
2.) On your outer "v' , blend Darkhorse (going slightly up into the crease)
3.) Blend Hustle into the crease
4.) Line your upper lash line with Darkhorse, then line with the 24/7 black liner
5.) Line your lower lash line with Hustle, then line with 24/7 Black
6.) Finish by sweeping Virgin mixed with Naked (this tones it down a little) as your highlight under your brows

For my everyday work look I use naked on my lid and buck on my crease and any of the lighter shimmer ones for my brow bone. Gives you a soft smokey look. For going out, I use some of the golden and shimmery browns... depends what you wear. For night looks I smoke it out with the darker colors. Check out some youtube tutorials they can inspire you... that's what I did.

For every day use, I put sin all over my lid and then hustle in my crease. You can use any color really and it will look amazing because these colors blend in so well with each other. I absolutely love using the gold color in my crease too. I love the color it gives in the crease. Just have fun messing around with the colors. I'm sure you will find a combo that you will fall in love with!

I would definitely recommend using Sin and Virgin as your go-to shades - they look good on all skin tones and provide a flattering shimmer.
I would say the best way to find out how to wear the shadows is to experiment! Play around with all the shades one weekend and see what works. Don't be afraid to mix and match the colors - blending two or more of the colors together is a great way to create a unique look.
Usually the best way to apply shadows is to apply the lighter color on the inside of the eye and the darker color towards the outer edge of the lid - this look is universally flattering and makes your eyes look bigger.
Good luck!

I've had this palette a few months now and haven't even put a dent in it. UD colors last a long time, though and are very highly pigmented. Each time I buy one if the eyeshadow individuals, they last me about 1.5- 2 years! And I wear them everyday!

Dark Brown eyes are the one color that really can wear anything! you lucky duck! But, blues and greens are going to be the colors that will make your eyes pop the most! Since this palette doesn't have any of those colors, you can incorporate a blue or green liner into your lower waterline. Blue would make the whites of your eyes appear whiter, because it counteracts redness. If you don't want to do that, a black or brown is fine also. I've attached a look that I've put together for you! I hope this helps!

I have dark brown eyes too. I put either half backed or smog on the crease , virging on the inner cornerof your eye, and Put dark horse on the outer corner. Simple yet not too dramatic. That is almost my daily makeup routine.

I also have brown eyes and you can literally wear any one of these shades && look fab! But my favorite combo is - Half Baked from the lash line to the crease, Smog in the outer V of the eye, Darkhorse along the crease, blend blend blend!, then I like to use Sin to blend above Darkhorse just a bit, and to finish use Virgin under the brow, and you're dazzling! Hope you LOVE this as much as I do!

You should experiment a little when you have time, it's kinda fun and let's you know what to put on and what not to put on. A good combination for you depends on how much eyeshadow you would like on, your skin tone, and a bunch of other little things to consider, but in my opinion (I don't put much eyeshadow) it might look nice with a little of the gunmetal and then more of the neutral tones, using the gunmetal as a kind of accent.
I tried this on two of my friend with dark brown eyes, and it looks nice, but they have very tanned skin tones, so I don't know how this will look on someone else.

I think it might depend on your skin type. I have a darker olive complexion and dark brown eyes, and here's a combo that I think is really nice on me. A little Sin on the browbone, Toasted on the lid, and Hustle in the crease and outer corner. This is a good daytime look, and you can make it more dramatic for night by adding one of the darker colors, Creep or Darkhorse, to the crease

UD makes better shadows in my opinion. Better pigmentation. Easier to work with. They make the best shadows at the rice point. There are better, but they are far more expensive (and not worth it when there are UD shadows in my opinion).

Urban Decay, hands down! I'd just purchased this set when someone gifted the Stila set to me as well. The quality of the UD eyeshadow is far superior to that of Stila. I have a very oily face and I HAVE to use a primer. With primer, my eyeshadow is perfect for most of the day but even WITH a primer (UD, Kat Von D, Nars, M-U-F...) the Stila still shifts. I HATE that.
If you don't have that creasing problem, the colors are pretty but I would definitely opt for UD in any case. It's a superior product. :)

No compromise...the pigmenting on the UD is AMAZING. Stila is good too, but I went with UD because of the reviews. Use a primer and it lasts all day and no creasing. If anything, the pigmenting it too much. Haha I expected the golds to be kind of sheer, but they are almost true to their color in the palette, which is awesome! They're all wearable, but the greys in the UD are sort of blue...downside.

I saw the Stila palette too and it seemed to be something they put out too late to compare with Urban Decay. Most Stila colors with the exception of Kitten have really disappointed me. Urban Decay's colors and pigmentations are very rich and true. I would spend the extra on the Naked palette, once you get it home, you won't regret it!

the pigmentation is excellent. I apply the shadows with my finger, and hardly have to use any to get great color. both the matte and shimmer/glitter shadows are well pigmented. waaaay better than the tarte mega-palette they sell at christmas (not sure if that palette uses standard tarte shadows?).

i definitely agree. i also have both and the UD palette is much richer, i find myself constantly impressed at how vibrant the colors are and how well they blend. the natural palette not so much- the colors aren't as rich, not as pigmented, i find them flaking, moving throughout the day. i'd definitely go with the naked palette!

It's a decent brush for packing color onto the lid, but that is all I end up using it for. I always end up using a separate blending brush and a separate eyeliner brush. That is at the very least.

Yes that is true. Not a fan of the brush. If you are new to makeup, you might like it though. I would try it out to see if you can work with it first. If you are used to those makeup swabs, you might really like it. I personally would go to sephora or a m@c counter and ask what they would recommend. Eye shapes are different. That means what works great for my eye as far as patting on color, might not be the same for you. A great blending brush is always a good option, which translates regardless of eye shape. Look for something fairly dense with a decent amount of give (but not floppy bristles). A lot of companies make good brushes. I would try for synthetic if you are not used to brushes. They stay clean a little longer, and are easier to clean. Translate well with both powder and cream products.
