MUA Undressed Eyeshadow Palette Review and Swatches

Today I decided to review an eyeshadow palette from MUA (Makeup Academy). The palette which i choose for review is MUA's best selling Undressed eyeshadow palette. The reason why this palette is so famous because it is very affordable, it has beautiful range of shimmery to matte neutral colours and the biggest reason is that it's a dupe for high end brand Urban Decay Naked Palette. I don't have Urban Decay Naked palette so i can't compare them to show the exact difference.

MUA's Undressed eyeshadow palette comes in a flimsy plastic packaging but very light in weight and due to its sleek packaging its easy to carry. It comes with a dual sided sponge applicator and has 12 round eyeshadows. The overall quality of this palette is amazing. The shadows are all named as Shade 1, Shade 2….etc which is a MUA trait.

The quality of shimmery shadows are really nice, they are creamy with a buttery texture that applies and blends easily. However, the matte shadows are a bit chalky, their color pigmentation is not good and they are also a little difficult to blend. I found Shade 3 and 5 which are matte colors very difficult to swatch, even after applying several times to my wrist, there was still hardly any color on my skin. They do have some bad fall outs.

The shimmery shadows are highly pigmented and they show well even without an eye primer though definitely you compromise a little on lasting power then. They stay all day on my eyes with primer, only fading a tiny bit at the end. MUA has also launched an eyeshadow palette called Undress Me Too, which also contains 12 neutral shades and that's a dupe for Urban Decay Naked Palette 2.

Undressed Eyeshadow Palette is priced at just £4 and is available at MUA's website. In Pakistan you can also get it online from just4girls.pk .
