MUA Pretty Pastels Palette!

Second review of today! Let's do it! So I'm going to review the MUA Pretty Pastels Palette.

 
I like this palette, it has a nice selection of colours and is very affordable. I got mine on eBay as MUA is a UK brand. The colours are reasonably pigmented for the price and you can subtly wear colour in a fun way. I usually just use these as either a all over the lid colour or as inner corner highlight. My favourite colour is probably the pink second from the left at the top. It's going to look really nice for spring and really brightens your eyes.
So overall, a nice, affordable palette that's great for spring/summer. I think I'll try out some other MUA palettes as I know they have a nice neutrals one

Essence vs Maybelline:Cream Eyeshadows

Hello all! Today's review is going to be on the comparison between the Essence cream eyeshadows and the Maybelline Colour Tattoos. Let's jump in!
To start off, I'd like to tell you which colours I own. The Essence one is a Ballerina Backstage eye souffle in Pas Des Copper which with my fantastic French skills (lol jokes google translate) means not copper. I have no idea why they called it that, maybe because it's actually brown haha..
Anyway, the Maybelline 24hr Colour Tattoo I own is in Bold Gold, a pretty self explanatory name.

The Essence one is very squishy and smooth, whereas the Maybelline one is harder and isn't as creamy. I like the consistency of the Essence one better just because it's easier to apply, but I think the Maybelline one lasts longer on your eyelid but also lasts longer in the pot as your not using it as fast.
The Maybelline one is also a lot more vivid and has more shimmer.
 
I prefer the Maybelline one, because even though it's more expensive, there are more colours to choose from and you get more product out of it. The Essence one is worth checking out though, that's if they are still selling it!
 
Au Revoir!
