Makeup Academy - Glamour Days Eye Shadow Palette

MUA (Makeup Academy) is one of those pocket-friendly UK based cosmetic brands you don't think twice before purchasing because it also promises good quality products. I have used MUA eye shadow palette before as well but never really got around to reviewing any, silly me. I was sent this gorgeous MUA Glamour Days Palette by Just4girls.pk to review and I thought, "Ok, here is my chance!"

The BRAND Claims:
"Glamour Days palette contains a collection of 12 highly pigmented eye shadows in shimmer and matte to suit different skin tones to create a glamorous day look." (Not much to claim, really)

My EXPERIENCE:

The palette comes in a handy size with 12 shades, mix of matte and mostly shimmer eye shades. The packaging is very basic and similar to a few other UK brands, but who cares ( I don't actually).

The clear top lid makes it easier to see the shades you have. Other than the eye shadows it includes a dual ended sponge applicator (who uses these nowadays though?).

- Amazingly pigmented eye shadows with minimum fall out (do try to keep a tissue paper under your eyes to prevent raccoon eyes, just in case)

- Smells like talc

- Velvety finish

- A great mix of nudes and brights that can be paired for a day glam look or even a fresh evening time look

- Stay power is low unless you use a good eye primer

- Easily blend-able

- Shades have no names ( let's just make them up)
