MUA Makeup Academy Single Eyeshadows-Review,Swatches

Before I start the review let me share the exciting news that MUA cosmetics has recently launched their cosmetics in Pakistan,You can order their cosmetics only from  www.just4girls.pk

I got the eyeshadows almost 8 months back when a dear friend was visiting UK,I only got myself 4 eyeshadows mainly because I have super sensitive eyes...my eyes easily get irritated,watery, itchy.so when it comes to eye makeup I can't take risk and thats one of the reason I dont wear and buy alot of eye makeup:( so I bought 4 eyeshadows just to see if it works fine..and it did:)  to my surprise non of the four single eyeshadows irritated my eyes.

The four single eyeshadow I got are shade No.3,9,7 and 12 and all of these are pearl finish, MUA also have matte finish eye shadows in singles.All of these colors are very smooth,easy to blend,super pigmented.they are not as frosty and metallic as they look in the swatches but they are shimmery,each eyeshadow contain 2 grams of product which is alot for just 1 pound (Rs.200),I dont use an eye primer with them because they don't  crease and are very pigmented. 


MUA  Eyeshadow 9 (pearl) This one is the most loved and most worn out of all four colors...its a gorgeous bright purple with magenta hues,very smooth and pigmented.


MUA Eyeshadow 12 (pearl) Most people describe it as a dupe of Mac's club...Mac's club is more brownish and taupe ish (duo chrome). MUA shade 12 is a very deep brown with taupish and reddish background.


MUA Eyeshadow 7 (pearl): Its a frosty smokey deep green and it has gold shimmer in it.


MUA Eyeshadow 3 (pearl) A very deep gun metal silver and it has silver shimmer.


Availability: From Superdrug UK and www.just4girls.pk (for Pakistan)

I am planning an international giveaway and also a special giveaway for Pakistani fans...if you want it to be a MUA giveaway please let me know in the comments below:) 


Much love.

Top 3 Picks Of The Spring/Summer Trends

This spring was full of trends... neon,ice cream or bright pastels, bold patterns,floral prints,nature prints,color blocking, metallic,shimmery glossy fabric,deep V neck,off shoulder dresses,all white,graphic prints and what not!! I took notice of the trends that I'd like to take to the streets!


Pastels

Many designers have declared pastels as the go to spring look.Ice cream,minty and even "bright" pastels...It could be a pastel floral dress or a pastel handbag with a blue jeans and white top.

Neon

Neons are the spring/summer hottest look and one of my favourite...if you are afraid you can't pull off neon like jennifer lopez ...well...dont restrict yourself,neon accessories leave just as much impact and look very trendy.

Color Blocking

Color blocking was a huge trend last year and this year it is back with a bang.throw a splash of color with neon color blocking or keep it sober with pastel color blocking.Color blocking is a bold and brave trend.....its about keeping the colors in the same family,contrast colors and if you are not sure you can simply add some color block accessories.
