MUA £1 Eyeshadows Review & Swatch

It's budget beauty week 2 :) So today I'm going to show you my mini collection of MUA Eyeshadows which cost only £1, give my opinion & swatch.
First off I have three Eyeshadows from the pearl collection and two from the matte. I'll start with the pearl collection.
~ Shade 1, this is a lovely creamy pearl colour. It applies nice and neatly can be made more shimmery when added to water and would be great if used for a base!
~ Shade 30, this is a gorgeous shimmery copper colour. Again the texture and consistency of these pearl shadows are great. I love to use this colour on the outer corners of my eyes it really makes them pop.
~ Shade 2, this is a great white/creamy shimmer colour. Would be great to use when highlighting dramatic eyes, but looks quite scary when used by itself as it is so light.
On to the matte colours
~ Shade 19, a basic matte brown. Would be a great base for a brown smokey eye. I would prefer if these colours were a bit more pigmented as they are quite dull.
~ Shade 20, a basic matte black. Perfect for a smokey eye look but again too much to be worn alone.
I would love to pick up more of these Eyeshadows for the price they really are great products I like them most out of the MUA Collection. For £1 at your local Superdrug you can't go wrong!! xx

£1.99 2true Eyeshadow Duo's

My next review & swatch is for 2True Cosmetics Eyeshadow Duo's. 2True is a cosmetics line available at Superdrug in the UK all their products are £1.99 and 3 for £5! BARGAIN! I absolutely love these eyeshadow duo's I currently have two one in shade 15 and the other in shade 13 - this one is my favourite they have super nice colours and in particular shade 13 is super pigmented it reminds me of using mac pigments! If your ever on a drugstore/bargain beauty spree I seriously suggest picking Shade 13 up and having a look at the range. 2true also do a great dupe for Benetint!
Comment & let me know your hit & miss 2true products :)

e.l.f Brightening Eye Colors Swatch & Review

For my first budget makeup review & swatch I have chosen the e.l.f Brightening eye Colors. I bought two of these one in #Drama - Smokey eye & the other in #Nouveau Neutrals - Olive and pink neutral eye. These eyeshadow quads are great little handy kits small enough to
keep in your clutch bag, included is a mirror and applicator sponge brush. The colours are nice some with good levels of pigment others not so much. There is a little bit of fallout from the eyeshadows so beware of that. Check out the product photo's and swatches below! Let me know what you thought? Or if you liked any of the other colours!
C'ya later beauts xx
