Not a bad effort

So the other day I did a post on the new MUA eyeshadows I bought from Superdrug for £1. The swatches were lovely, such vibrant colours, but I hadn't actually tried them out on eyes. So with that in mind I wore the green eyeshadow to work to see how it lasted. This is what the eyeshadow looked like when it was first applied. (I also applied a purple eye liner from Gosh on the upper lash line and black mascara on the lashes)




The eyeshadow itself applied well and is well pigmented which I love! However, lets see how the £1 eyeshadow lasted. This picture was taken at the end of the day....


Hmmm, as you can see the shadow did not last all day (I did apply a primer under the shadow) which is a shame, but since I only paid £1 for the product I wasn't expecting the same lasting power as some of the more expensive brands. Overall I really like the shadow, towards the end of the day the product did gather in my crease but it I found it actually lasted well up until then.
What do you think? Have you ever tried MUA before?

  3. Oh my goodness! That really sucks! What kind of primer? I find that UDPP works pretty well for most shadows. At least they were cheap! :)
