Hello lovelies :)

I've recently purchased four eyeshadows from The BodyNeeds Blackened collection and since they are so beautiful I've decided to share this joy :) Each pot costs $1.99 and it's 5 gram jar. Available is also 10g jar.

I got Blackened Teal, Blackened Violet, Blackened Emerald and Blackened Bronze. The eyeshadow is very fine and the pigmentation is good. I would recommend to apply it over dark grey or black base as it will intensify the colour. I wore combination of Blackened Teal, Violet and Emerald on New Year's Eve over dark grey Benefit creme eyeshadows in Strut. They didn't crease whole night and looked very good. The only downsize is (as with most colours of this type) that if you blend it too much you can lose some of the coloured particles.

You should definitely check out Jangsara's swatches, she did awesome ones on her eyes and since I wouldn't do better, I will just recommend hers :)

 

Hi girls,

After I saw swatches of MUA eyeshadows on Carlotta's Beauty Spot, I had to have some! Especially when they are £1 and you can get extra 25% discount when filling a feedback form at Superdrug website! I bought some polishes too :)

So here are the shades I bought:

• Shade 20 (matte black)
• Shade 17 (matte beige)
• Shade 19 (matte dark brown)
• Shade 8 (pearl turquoise blue)
• Shade 1 (pearl champagne)

I was pleasantly surprised with the pigmentation which is very good. They blend nicely too, I've used them so far in one makeup look and I'm happy with them. For £1 you get a great value for your money. They don't make huge range of shades right now but there are basic shades like matte black, shimmery champagne, forest green, very similar colour to MAC Blue Brown pigment (!) etc.

MUA products are available in Superdrug.
