MUA Undressed Palette.

_DSC0021

 There is absolutely nothing i can say about this amazing palette that no other blogger has said.
Its amazing. It is a complete dupe for the Urban Decay Naked Palette, and a fraction of the price.
I'm not sure if MUA did this intentionally as the order of the shadows are in the same way, and even the name is similar. You can purchase this palette from Here or any superdrug store that stocks the MUA pro line for £4.

However, this is the perfect palette to have in your collection. I'm not very brave when it comes to putting bright colours on my eyes, other than Purple. If i do I'm feeling confident that day, so tend to stick to the neutral tones.

You get 12 shades with a mixture of shimmer, pearl and matte finish. They are all amazingly pigmented, apart from the 2 matte brown shades. I have the immaculate collection and Heaven and Earth palette and the matte colours from their aren't the most pigmented. If you buy the singles from MUA on the other hand those matte ones are very pigmented.

I have been know to use shade 1 as a highlight on my cheeks and shade 11 as an eyeliner applied with and angled eyeliner brush.

What i really also like about this palette, and others from MUA is that they have a simple tutorial on the back of the packaging. This helps you to create a nice look if you are a beginner.

As always the eye shadows are soft and creamy and apply like a dream. I have oily eyelids and with out a primer (i have recently run out) they do stay on for hours. With a primer, if I'm feeling very lazy, my eyeshadow will still be there the next morning looking just as good.

Mac Eyeshadow - Moonflower



I am in love with Ebay at the moment. My most recent purchase is this beautiful Mac Eyeshadow in the shade Moonflower. Now, im no expert on Mac, but i do know that you have to be very carful when ordering products online as i have come across a few fakes. However, i have googled the death out of this item and have found its a discontunued shade. Am i right? The seller added in the description that it is 100% genuine, and she is only seeling it cheap because she wants rid as she is having a huge clearout. She also had over 2000 possitive feedback results and most of her other selling items were high end products. 
Iv taken a good look at the pagkaging after watching and reading blogs about how to spot Mac fakes, and this one looks pretty geniune to me. What do you guys think?
The colour is a dark grey - blue with slight silver shimmer to it. 
Perfect for adding a little something to a smokey eye. 

I tried so many times to get a shot of the name, but my camera refused me tonight. This is the best i could get. Sorry guys. 


Please ignore my amazing jammies :) 
This is the eyeshadow swatched. The first is it swatched straight from pot to finger to arm. The second is it blended out slightly. 
When swatched it is a little lighter than it is in the pan, but it is still such a pretty colour.
Even if it isnt a real mac eyeshadow,(im pretty certain its real) im still in love with it.
