Urban Decay NAKED 2 Palette & How To Get It

I watched Paranormal Activity & wanted to watch Paranormal Activity 2....and 3 & now wishing for a 4 too. Man, that's good stuff! Same with Urban Decay NAKED, I had to see the sequel - NAKED 2.
It's a Valentine's Day (Week?) present from Mr.CZ. God bless him & this day of... love (please excuse). I wouldn't have gotten it this soon otherwise, oh-no.
Naked 2 comes with a dual-ended Good Karma Shadow/Crease Brush & 0.11 oz Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Naked (pinky neutral). Review & Swatches will be posted after I've used everything enough. Hope you enjoy the pics for now.
Eyeshadows: Foxy, Half Baked, Bootycall, Chopper, Tease, Snakebite, Suspect, Pistol, Verve, YDK (What is this? 'You Don't Know'?), Busted, Blackout.




So this is how I got it from amazon.com, which doesn't ship makeup to India:

Shopandship.com! It's basically a courier company. You shop from websites in UK, US & China (that don't ship to India), get your purchase delivered to shopandship, and then they will deliver it to your address. So nice, right? Please visit the website to find out how to register & things like that.

Cost of NAKED 2:
From sephora.com thru amazon.com -  Rs.2719 (US price: $50)

Shopandship shipping cost-  Rs.1000 (they usually take Rs.600 for 1/2 kg), but Sephora packed the palette in a rather large box. Still worked out cheaper than Ebay at the time.

Total Shipping Time: I got it in 2 weeks.

Please Note: Some online websites don't ship to shopandship & other courier companies.

Shopandship DOESN'T ship perfumes & other flammable stuff. I also ordered Katy Perry Purr From but sadly it's still stuck in America =[


I came to know about this method from my hubby, coz he gets video games and stuff. He learned about it from his brother. Closeted shopaholics they both are.

P.S. This is based on my personal experience & I am happy with my first experience with Shop And Ship. Please use this info at your own discretion. I'm only telling you about another method to get what aren't available here.
Anyways, Sephora will be available in India this year, so maybe you won't have to resort to such measures ;)

Happy Weekend!

  7. I like this palette! hahaha Oh I just watched Paranomal Activity 3 and I got freaked out for one night. :)

    anyways, I think i just may need to get my hands on this palette even though this is a more cooler toned palette but I think it will become a classic must-have in the beauty world. :)

    1. Yes, they do. But I think it's $45. It's a one time thing- you'll get to use it forever.Sometimes they have offers on registration fees, so you can wait for those too, if you want to save some monies :)

  11. Isn't the Naked Palette gorgeous? It's probably one of the smartest and best beauty products out there.

    I must admit that I thoroughly enjoyed all the Paranormal Activity series. Very scary.

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
