Beauty Blog: Autumn Trends

I love my favourite Urban Decay Naked eye shadow palette but didn’t fancy shelling out for the Naked 2, despite loving the colour range. 

Luckily, my saviours at MUA have come up with a sneaky dupe called the ‘Undress Me Too‘ palette. Obviously the quality of the eye shadows isn’t comparable to Urban Decay. At £4 however, and with a good ratio of matte to shimmery (good, cheap matte shades are hard to come by) you can hardly complain. 

The packaging is also sleek and compact, though I wouldn’t travel with this palette as the eye shadows would almost certainly crack. This is a great palette for students on a budget. There are plenty of different looks you can achieve, day and night. 

I’ve created a simple, sleek and easy evening look for a date or drinks with the girls using the palette.

For Kate I used: Devotion on the lids, Corrupt to line, and Lavish to define.

No7 Beautifully Matte Foundation
