I have been making googly eyes at Urban Decay's Naked and Naked 2 palette for quite some time now, but unfortunately I can't justify spending $50 on eye shadow. After reading through a few blogs, I found some pretty good dupes!

There is this brand called Sleek Makeup, they make a pretty nice palette in i-Divine Au Naturale that is comparable to Urban Decay's Naked and i-Divine Storm is comparable to the Naked 2 palette.

Here is direct comparison of the latter:

    BH Cosmetics is my fave for large palettes, plus they have great sales. I got 2 of the 144 palettes for under $30.00.

    I wish they had them at the one in my town. Their undies are many sizes too big. I'm not a small person, but I'm most definitely not a XXL. lol

    I used to buy cheap make up, but I just can't do it anymore, especially when it comes to the basics - foundation, concealer, mascara and lipstick. I tend to stick with Clinique and MAC for those things.

    I tend to splurge on makeup. I am obsessed with Sephora. But I also have picked up a lot of great cheap makeup at CVS. If on a budget I'd say the best time to go to the drugstore like CVS to buy make up is around the holidays. There are a lot of gift sets. I got and eye shaddow set with 10 different shimmery colors, and it came with 2 lip glosses all for $5. I also got a nail polish set for $5. The holiday sets are the best.

    I'm a makeup artist and having tried lots of different product brands I find you get better quality with more expensive products. But I do love Revlon! And I have the UD Naked Palette and its beautiful! :)
