Urban Decay Naked Palette Swatches on Brown Skin

I finally gotten "Naked." I know that I am late to jump on the Urban Decay Naked Palette bandwagon but hey, I am finally on it. Before I bought the palette, I searched the Internet looking for swatches of the 12 eyeshadows on brown skin. I really couldn't find any. Now that I have the palette, I decided to take a few photos so that if anyone else looking for swatches before buying the palette.

hidradenitis (do I owe you some money or something?)

If you ever missed a bill payment, you know what is like when bill collectors call. You come home from work and there some strange number popping up several times in one day on your caller ID.
Call me crazy but I never dodge bill collector unless they are calling for someone else. I actually want to know if I forgot to pay a bill. I am trying to keep half way decent credit, but I've been known to forget a bill especially if I misplaced it.
Anyway, what does this have to do with hidradenitis suppurativa? Well just like a bill collector who calls your house with an messed up attitude as if you personally owe him some money, HS just won't let up. HS just keeps "calling." Popping up out of nowhere.
In case you didn't know, I refer to the lesions as "aliens." Hey, it gets me through the day. Well just as I get some relief (just for one day mind you) from a few huge ones (we'll call them Visa and MasterCard) then here comes some more (Macy's, Sears and Loew's charge cards) rearing their ugly heads.
THIS IS SO FREAKING FRUSTRATION AND PAINFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I go to the dermatologist tomorrow. I am off my Remicade until after my gastric bypass and that is a few months away. So I will definitely need some intervention here.
