I'm strictly a MAC girl BUT I did get the UD NAKED palette and now I use it every day. There is a new one coming out soon.

I wouldn't say I switched though. I just really love this particular palette.

I use everything BUT MAC. I keep meaning to try their shadows, but I'm almost afraid to. My fear is I'll fall in love with them and it will only feed my "illness." Chat Icon

I'm about 80% MAC but I do have a few random things from other companies like Laura Mercier, Makeup Forever, Temptu and Bobbi Brown. I had never been fond of Urban Decay until the Naked Palettes (love them).

The NAKED2 was released already but sold out ridiculously fast.

Re: MAC vs Urban Decay

I use them both; I would say that I have more brand loyalty to UD but that's only because I find them to be a little more fun than MAC.

Both of them are animal-friendly (cruelty free) so they both get my business. Chat Icon

I love all makeup equally.. but I have to say I have MUCH more Urban Decay than MAC..the only thing I do not like about Urban Decay is how glittery some of the shadows are

ditto...I keep going to the website to buy the naked palate, and chicken out.
I do like the colors on the first one, then the 2.

I agree that UD is more fun, however I use MAC more though, b/c I think they last longer on my oily eyelids. (I use UD primer). I had one individual shadow that last long, but the ones in the naked palette don't seem to.

I also like the MAC finishes better--UD has a lot of sparkle & some matte, but MAC has satin which is kind of in between.

also- I like that you can buy MAC shadows as palette refills.

I'd say they are pretty comparable. The UD shadows are very smooth and silky. Me likeyChat Icon
