So today i wanted to bring you another review on the MUA (Makeup Academy) line. This time i have decided to review the 3 palettes of theirs that i own. I want to just start off by saying how much i love MUA as a brand so these palettes came as no surprise to me. MUA, for those of you who don't know, are a super affordable brand that's based in the UK. Many of their item's are only £1 (I own a heck of a lot of their £1 lipstick's so let me know if you'd like to see a review on them.) Anyway, they ship internationally so i will leave their link at the end of the blog. I'd highly recommend you check them out because honestly, i use their brand over a lot of my high end brands such as Two Faced and Anastasia!
Anyway, onto the review
The three palettes i own are
.Undress me two- Super nude palette, great for every day. Mix of mattes and shimmers.
.Dusk Till Dawn-Super good for a smokey eye look. Mix of matte's and shimmers.
.Silent Disco- Super fun bright colour's with a mix of matte's and shimmers.
These palettes retail for £4 and they're exclusive to Superdrug i believe. You get 12 shadows in each palettes which makes the shadows 33p. How crazy is that?!?!? it's 9.6g which means you get a pretty decent amount of product in each palette. The packaging is plastic and feels good quality for it's price. On the back it tell's you the ingredients to every shade which i think is great. It also tell's what shade has what finish which is great.
My first palette is the Undress Me Two palette. As you can see this palette is so well loved. It has 4 matte's and 8 shimmers. I have used this palette to death. I've has it for around 2 year's so i should probably get a new one. My fav shade is Lavish and i'm so sad i'm almost out of it. The palette is such a great one for travel as it's really great for getting a whole natural look and they're super light weight. They're all quite creamy in formula. The black is a little chalky and has quite a bit of fallout but it's super pigmented so you can't really complain. Over all i love this palette so much and i'd defiantly recommend it!
The next palette i have is in the shade Dawn Till Dusk. This is a super smokey palette. I was given this for my 18th birthday back in 2015. I have not used it much because i tend to stick to a natural eye but i do really love it. You get 0 matte shades which is kind of a bummer but the shades it does have go really well together. I really like the shade Thym as an inner corner highlight. They're all super buttery, creamy and pigmented. There's not much fallout either which is a bonus.
The final palette i have is in the shade Silent Disco. This is a super fun bright palette. The reason i picked this up was because i was looking for a single red eyeshadow for the christmas period but i couldn't find one anywhere. When i went into superdrug and found this is was so happy! Not only had i found the red i was looking for, it was also by one of my favourite brands and it has so many other beautiful shades with it! This is my favourite palette of the three. The formulation is just so creamy and the pigmentation is insane! My favourite shade is Electro. It's a gorgeous galaxy type purple. Glam and Psychedelic are awesome too. I used this quite a bit over christmas and no doubt will get a lot of use out of it for the summer. This is one of their newer palettes i believe and the feel of the shadows seem's even more incredible than the last. I'm so impressed!
Overall i think these palettes are insanely good and i want every single one they do! £4 is an absolute bargain and they're worth so much more than that! You get a great amount of shadows and a great choice of colour's and they're super super creamy. If you can get your hands on them then i would highly recommend you do. They're the most used palettes in my collection and i definitely wont be getting rid of them in a hurry!
