Almost
every color is a match except for "Half Baked, Smog and Toasted." Quo's
version of half baked and Smog is far too copper toned to be a match.
While their version of Toasted is close, I also find it to be a bit too
red/copper toned to be an exact match. Other then that the colors are
dead on. The quality of the shadows in the Quo palette are
"pretty good" but I find them to be slightly chalky in textured compared
to the Naked palettes creamy shadows. In the Naked palette you get 1.3g
per shadow (12 shadows) In the Back to Basics palette you get 1g per
shadow (12 shadows) So you are getting slightly less product in the
Basics palette vs. the Naked palette BUT the naked palette retails for
$62.00 (Canadian) while the Back to Basics Palette retails for $25.00.
(Canadian) Over all the Back to Basics palette is a great buy, you can
use the palette to recreate any look done with the Naked 1. In
conclusion I would say Quo's back to Basics palette is a dupe for the
first Naked palette if you are looking for a lesser quality product that
"gets the job done." But if you're looking for a luxury product, the
original Naked palette would be your option.
