Finally NAKED

Finally, finally, finally!!!!!! An unplanned trip to Sephora this Saturday led me to a BIG surprise!!!!
I was so shocked to see that there is ONE NAKED palette sitting on the shelf!!!! And I immediately grabbed the palette and ran to the cashier without any hesitation. =) OMG, I just have been waiting for it for so long!!! I know for most of the places in the US the palette is re-stocked, but unfortunately in Canada it is still not the case.

I was also surprised to learn from the sales associate that there were a lot of returns for this palette. She said that people just did not try out the colours and was not pleased with the fact that they are not matte colours. This is such a waste because even if they have only swatched one colour, they will have to throw away the entire palette. I personally am not a big fan of matte shadows and actually prefer shadows that have a sheen on them. But I guess because the NAKED palette was so hyped up, people just did not think twice before purchasing. Also, she told me that Urban Decay will be coming out with a 2nd edition of the NAKED palette with more cool tone colours. =)

I am really excited to use this palette and I think it is just wonderful for travelling. However, I am not too sure about the brush that comes with it. The idea is great but I just don't really like this kind of brushes for apply eyeshadows. I preferred a more fluffy brush or just those cotton tips applicators. I am also excited to try out the primer potion because I have only tried the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. The Too Faced one works pretty well on me so I think I might actually give the Urban Decay primer potion to my mum for her to try. =)
