MUA Pretty Pastels Palette eye shadows | eyes | make up academy | MUA | mua pro | palette | pastels | pretty | pretty pastels | rave | review | superdrug | whenflowersfall

Not long ago I purchased another of the MUA eye shadow palettes, this time the Pretty Pastels palette.

As you guys know, eventually I want to own all of the palettes from MUA as I think they are such a brilliant quality for the price you pay.

This is probably going to be a short review, because I cannot praise MUA enough. 

The palette itself is £4, (only 33p per shadow) and is available online or from any Superdrug which carries the MUA PRO range. As with all of the other palettes available, the packaging is neat, sturdy and houses the product well. Although, unlike some of the other palettes from MUA, this one doesn't include a mini tutorial on the back.

The shadows themselves have great pigmentation, especially for pastel shades. The formula isn't too powdery and sits on your eyelids nicely.

I like to use this product on more casual days, or when I'm feeling like something more flirty and girly.

Like I said before, I really can't praise MUA enough, yet again this is an all round fabulous palette, filled with great product for an amazing price.

MUA Pro - Undressed Palette dupe | make up academy | MUA | mua pro | naked palette | palette | pro | review | superdrug | undressed | undressed palette | urban decay | whenflowersfall

I don't think I have ever been in love with a palette as much as I am with this one.

Like a lot of poor, twenty somethings I have been drooling and wishing to one day own the Urban Decay Naked palette. At the high price that it is, I don't think I could have ever let myself buy it, but thanks to MUA, I now don't have to.This palette is the most perfect dupe to all of those well known shadows. 

From the soft shimmery nude colours to the beautiful deep and dark shades, this palette has everything you need to create a hundred different looks.

The palette contains 12 fab shades, of which 8 I have swatched above. As you can see, the pigmentation of them is unreal. The shadows are soft and creamy, very easy to work with and have great staying power. 

I honestly don't know what else I can say to praise MUA on creating such a fabulous palette. 

For only £4 you are really getting your moneys worth! I mean, come on, FOUR POUNDS!!

You can purchase this at their online store, or at any Superdrug branches which stock the Pro line. 

I love MUA so much that it is my goal to own all of the palettes. I currently have 4, so I have a few more to get yet.

MUA Pro Brush on concealer - Radiance brush on concealer | make up academy | MUA | mua pro | radiance | review | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall | yellow tone

I was in dire of a new concealer last week, so I popped down to my local Superdrug and headed to the trusty MUA stand.
This brush on concealer sells for only £2 and gives good coverage. Just as the name 'Radiance' suggests the concealer brightens up your under eye wonderfully. Also the yellow tones cancel out any red in your skin. This is perfect for me because I always wake up in the morning with nice blotchy red eye bags.
The only con I can find to this product is the scent. It has rather a strong floral smell and I'd maybe go as far as describing it as 'old lady-ish'? This could be a problem for anyone who has sensitive skin, or even people who dislike strong scents. Even after I apply the rest of my make-up I can still smell it on my own skin.
Fortunately, neither my skin or nose is bothered by this little issue and I actually really like the product. It blends out really nicely and lasts a good length of time throughout the day.
For £2 I'm yet again impressed with a product from MUA, they never fail to surprise me and I will most definitely be buying this again. 

MUA Pro - English Rose Mosaic Blush blush | cosmetics | cute | english rose | make up | make up academy | mosaic blush | MUA | mua pro | pretty | professional | review | rose | shimmer | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Hi Lovelies!

I bought this blush in my little MUA haul a couple of weeks back. I hadn't reviewed it before now because I wanted to get a good try of the product, purely because I've heard some many different opinions of it. 

The packaging is simple and clean with a good view of the product inside. Even though this is an MUA Professional product it still only retails for £2.50 which is amazingly cheap.

The blush itself is a mixture of the most beautiful, soft pinks and lilacs. In pan you can that it would make a perfect highlighter if it was too light for your skin tone. 

When swatched the colour is very soft and when used on the cheek it's very sheer. Personally I like a little more colour but this is the perfect blush for when you just want a nice shimmer. I think it's going to make the perfect addition to my collection and will definitely get a ton of use in the summer!!
