Swatchfest: Urban Decay Eyeshadows

I received an email from Urban Decay saying there was a Friends & Family Sale, I didn't order anything but I looked around the website and found myself looking at the Naked and Naked 2 palettes. And I realised that I didn't really want or need them in my eyeshadow collection, and I decided to look over my urban decay shadows which I love, I think they are some of
