Hi Jen I'm from the UK and I love this brand and have every single one of these pallets in the plastic packaging. I have to say if you ever place another order please please please order the 15 pan palette in Blushing nudes trust me when I say it has the most BEAUTIFUL shimmers of them all especially 'Bubble Bath, and' Wine and Dine' they are so beautiful and I prefer them over every single one of my natasha denona shimmer shades! The foundation is also really lovely and long wearing, not a dupe for the Estee lauder double wear but an alternative to it! The cc concealers are amazing too. So anyone thinking of making a purchase you will not regret it especially the Blushing nudes Palette. Please anyone let me know if you purchase and what you think ❤xx
I added that one to my cart on your recommendation! (Blushing nudes) I've never tried mua before..I hope it's good 👍! Are the shimmers sparkly or just regular metallics?
@@daniellezadora7637 I hope you love it as much as I do!! Most of the shimmers are like a buttery metallic sparkle, on of the shades in that pallete has glitter in it but it's super smooth and not chunky at all just glides on as a shimmer it's stunning ❤️ xx
@@Randilynn66 hope you have an amazing time in London! Mua is exclusively sold in superdrug as far as I'm aware, they have the whole range in my local superdrug too so you shouldn't have a problem finding it 🤞 ❤️
As a Brit, I just wanna say thanks for highlighting MUA, they are such an underrated brand, even here. I think whoever designs the products has great colour intelligence, they always feel well chosen and a bit off the beaten path. The lqiuid blush in rouge noir especially.
As a UK gal I’m so so excited to watch this! I love MUA so much! Have you ever tried Collection Cosmetics, another UK brand so so affordable and they’ve recently launched a blush and highlight wand that’s BETTER than the ELF one! I tested them comparing them recently and I’m head over heels for them xx
I discovered MUA about 5 years ago when I moved to the UK from Canada. They are definitely one of the best and most affordable drugstore brands in my opinion! Their lip products are all nice and their blushes are amazing. People also seem to like their foundation and concealers but I haven't tried those yet!
Thanks Jen for featuring something I can buy in store here in the UK. I can see me heading to my local drugstore later on today! I have walked past this brand many times!!
As someone from the UK 🇬🇧, I have to admit I did sleep on this brand... until I tried those eyeshadow palettes!! I picked one up on a whim - i couldn't resist an ND mini 'dupe' for less than 4 quid!! But it blew me away with how gorgeous it was and I went back to pick up the others. 😍I can also highly recommend the lip liners. I'm so pleased someone is talking about this brand because I literally rave about these products to anyone who'll listen... including strangers in Superdrug. Thanks Jen. Great video as usual ❤
Sigma sits on my order over 12 days and I just cancel my order. Jen orders across the pond and gets her order in under 3 days! This is just crazy. Thanks Jen and Sue!
I ordered from Sigma on April 28 and they still haven't shipped it. (today is May 16th). I got the 'sorry for the inconvenience' which irritates me for its insincerity.
@Zizzie mine just got shipped today! Ordered the day they kicked off the 40% sale. Thought they forgot me. It is 2 day shipping if that eases your soul slightly lol 😆
So glad you’re sharing the MUA love! I’ve been a fan for a while and talked about several of their products on my channel too. I highly recommend their eyebrow pencil, it’s my holy grail!!
Same for when I order from Kiko Milano, they are based in Italy, it normally only takes 5 days, the last ulta order took 2 weeks and was missing a item (and we have a Ulta wear- house 40 mins from me)
The first thing I noticed when your video started was how much I loved your eyeshadow. I didn't realize at that moment that your video would be all about the MUA eyeshadows. I'll be sure to visit that website. I already order skincare internationally so I'm not intimidated.
Oh, I'm not finished watching, but had to say, I love Sue! She is an absolute doll! She was very supportive of me when I was unemployed, and we have been friends for years. She is definitely worth a follow!
The turquoise shade in the wilderness palette? HOLY SMOKES that is soooo pretty. That palette is autumn vibes, but the color story is really inspiring. Great mix that I can see being both dramatic or natural depending upon how you use it. Which is amazing for only five shades! They do their colors well!
I bought a few things for the first time last week from MUA, first I bought the darker eyeshadow large pallet along with the heroic lip shine that you have. I tried them & thought they were lovely, went back the next day & bought another large eyeshadow pallet & another lip shine. Bonus I got a free waterproof mascara for spending over £7😊 I then went back a couple of days later & bought the matching lip pencil & a micro eyebrow pencil, everything is fantastic. I found the lipliner really helped the lip shine stay on. The shadow also stayed on beautifully. Might have to try the bronzer & liquid blush now 😊😊😊 Thanks for highlighting this brilliant brand!!!!
Thank you Jen for introducing us to a new brand. These products remind me a lot of the Hard Candy line at Walmart in both price point and style. I’m going to have to try some out.
Thanks so much for reviewing!! These are in my local grocery store in europe and i was wondering which products are nof good quality. I love that you don't only review popular products ❤
I ordered the Illusionist palette based on a review by an UK influencer and it is phenomenal. I recommend it to everyone now. Mind you that I have mostly high-end eyeshadow in my collection and this is still great quality in my opinion.
I am currently in the UK and had just bought the Desert Bloom palette. I love it. At Boots they had one 5 pan that is a dead on dupe for Natasha Denona retro’s mini palette. I love the quality of the shadows. I got zero fall out.
Hey I love Mua too, it's Sue! I recommended mua to Jen, especially their eyeshadow palettes. They've really upped their game & the quality is outstanding imo, as good as palettes 10 times the price ❤❤
This brand is available in the EU as well! At least here in Finland, they are available in some stores. :) I recently bought the Desert Bloom palette and it's amazing! I kinda want to get other shades now too... Love your videos, Jen!
I've been using mua makeup academy for yearsss (Barry m too!) & their blushes are some of my hg! Papaya whip & atomic tangerine are my favs. So glad you did this! 🫶
Hi Jen! I always take your recommendations to heart. You haven’t steered me wrong! I wear the Doll 10 cream blushes almost daily and you’ve turned me into a Moira fan. I have two of their eyeshadow palettes and am ready to dig into the brand. Thank you Jen. I hope you had a great Mother’s Day! ❤
Thanks Jen for doing this video so quick! Didn't you just do the "short" yesterday?😄I love it when you find products that we forget about or don't know about, especially when they are great price and worth the purchase. I waited for your review before I purchased...you rock!💚
Yes I posted the short yesterday but I made it a few days ago. I've had these for a while and did all the swatches when I first got them so filming a video was easy after that! 🥰
I was waiting also. I started to place an order last night when I saw the short and then I stopped myself and decided to wait until you reviewed it. So thanks for doing that so quickly! Take care and big hugs, k
Thank you so much for your recommendation!❤ I have ordered eyeshadow palettes and blushes right after watching your video, and they are so good. I have never heard about this brand before your video, but I am so much impressed by the products especially for the eyeshadows. They are really dupe for Natasha Denona’s eyeshadows
Thanks for another unknown brand. Love brands I have never heard of before. And I have no issue with China or things coming from there. Also order from the uk a lot with clothes. No issues. ❤ great video Jen. And thanks for the swatches. Amazing. Gonna check them out.
jen I personally think a real strong blush looks loverly on the younger women but I'm 55 and feel more comfortable with the colour level you have on xx
Ugh my CVS used to carry MakeupAcademy, but it's been yrs since they have. Been intrigued since I saw your short yesterday.. definitely going to have to check them out!
Got my order finally longer than 3 days but worth it the makeup foundation is touch proof all day & the Shimmers are Mind blowing ... stays on ALL DAY ... Thank you Jen love ❤️ it all xo
I remember before the brand wasn't really that eye-catching at cvs either. It had that black inglot style packaging so you couldn't even really see what everything was. That could be part of what happened. I'll have to check them out again!
Great review of a new product for me. That bronzer looked beautiful on you! The blushes were also pretty. I don’t like very intense blush colors any more… so these would be a good choice for me. Thank you for a detailed demonstration of these UK products. Have a great week🌸🌸
Thanks Jen for going through all of these products! I still have an MUA palette that I picked up a couple years ago on clearance at CVS. I’ll have to unearth it and try it again. Also, they have a pore filler that I like. Only thing is after about 6-8 hrs it can create oil on my combo skin during hotter months.
Yay! I saw the short and I'm here for the video! I think the wear down on this was impressive, because it wore down in a really pretty way. I'll take that!
The stands for this brand in most Superdrug’s here in the UK are so lacklustre, in smaller stores they have the tiniest of spaces or are on end of asile gondola you just bypass, the other brands get the better spaces and are pushed more.
I used to use MUA palettes and also the Sleek ones years ago when palettes first became a thing. They were pretty good then too. Must go into Superdrug over here in the UK and have a look at these newer ones. Emma x
Hi 👋 Jen. This brand looks so good and great value too. Your skin looks amazing, like you have just got back from a Vacay in Hawaii. You can notice them but they look like a skin finish. Beautiful. Even the Chanel bronzer is sheer and needs a bit of layering so the Mua one looks very similar to it. The lip balms were so pretty. Thanks for doing a review on these. Ive been hoping you would. Xxxx
I live in the UK and MUA is such an underrated brand here! I've got the palettes in the plastic casing and they are brilliant! I'm going to try a cream blush next Thanks for showcasing this brand!
Hey Jen just wanted to say how much I appreciate you being open minded about China as a mfr origin. As a chinese American I am very frustrated by the rampant unsubstantiated, unresearched anti-China and racist language that folks in this community use and it’s so nice to see someone not fall into that.
There are a lot of brands that manufacture in China that are wonderful and I think it unfortunately gets a bad reputation because of certain documentaries that have come out and because of the counterfeit industry, but I hope people realize that that's a small portion of makeup that's made there. :)
Just because someone expresses anti China sentiments doesn't mean they're racist. Perhaps they just don't want to support Communism and would rather strengthen their own country's economy by purchasing domestic products.
I completely agree! It drives me insane when people say something’s bad because it’s made in China. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll see a 1 star review and all it says is “made in China.” I’m like, ummm, okay…that was helpful 🤦♀️ I’d love for them to go through their home and make a “made in China” pile and a “made elsewhere” pile. I guarantee they’d be shocked to see how huge the “made in China” pile is compared to the “made elsewhere” pile. Like get out of here with that crap! Just because it’s made in China does NOT mean it’s bad or dangerous. There’s TONS of brands from drugstore to high end that manufacture in China and they’re amazing. People automatically think being made in China makes it cheap and use dangerous ingredients…like Jen said, because of documentaries (like Netflix Broken) but in those they were talking about counterfeits not real brands selling products. Counterfeits are dangerous no matter where they’re manufactured because they’re claiming to be that brand, like let’s say Huda, they’re claiming it’s a Huda palette so it has the packaging for that Huda’ palette, which means it has the ingredient list for that Huda palette, so there’s no way of knowing what’s actually in it. But real brands use their own packaging with their own ingredient list. Just drives me nuts! Sorry for the rant! 😅
@@onewhisper22005 Thats the problem nowadays, the lack of culture and interest to know anything . Watching Netflix to have an opinion is simply pathetic . And as I wrote many times before isnt only the products themselves made in China , where they think the plastic for packaging in any product (high end or low cost) comes from ...or the metal ? I'm so tired of people not having a clue about anything. Well , after covid nothing surprises me . The lack of sense and real pleasure for getting information is simply dead in the majority of the people. Just follow the crowds ........ and believe anything THEY want you to believe. No thanks, for me !
@@onewhisper22005they'd be raging to know how many products are produced in china. Even with the cruelty free concerns, I believe that law has changed so it's no longer mandatory. You just need to do some research before purchasing
I was looking forward to watching your review of palettes of eyeshadows from MUA, because I trust you. Yesterday, I bought the cream blush from MUA , named watermelon and I tried. It is stunning. Today, I have day off from my new job and I am happy to watch your new video. I totally buy the palette of eyeshadows from this company. Thanks a lot 😊😊. Have a nice day and love from Greece ❤️😊. Today, I will watch your another video. Fortunately, there are in Greece. You have a great vibe. Thanks for your company. I really appreciate your reviews and opinions of products makeup.
Love, love the make-up look. MUA sounds so goooood & affordable. I didn’t see Canada on their list of countries to ship to. 🤷♀️ (Also, your backdrop is beautiful and inviting.) 💕 Thx Jen.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stop telling America about the UK's best kept drugstore secret!! 😂 Seriously though- I've always wondered what the fuss about Revolution was when MUA has always been way better. UK people- remember those old school £1 single eyeshadows? I recently found a few lurking in my old singles palettes. And they STILL work beautifully. MUA always had the best stuff at the best prices (they were kinda our equivalent of the old school ELF, with similar 1-2 dollar/pound price points).
I remember during my mid 2010 introduction to Zoe sugg and that gang MUA popped up quite a bit, forgot about them tbh but this is quite nice and nostalgic in a way
Read your comments about this brand so I looked up their website. CVS carried it quite a while ago. Their prices (USD) are really low. It's nice to have another low-cost alternative.
I still have a super tiny eyeshadow palette by MUA that I got from CVS years ago. And actually the formula is really good, which is why I’ve held on to it so long.
Yes I love that one! I mentioned it in several videos last Spring/summer but I can't remember which ones now. It's a really great formula and one of my favorites!
Hi. Im in the UK and I have always bought everything but MUA. I decided to try the butterscotch bronzer. OMG my skin looks amazing! I was disappointed with the light lustre shimmer spray. It squirts rather than mists so it's not good for the face. Thanks for the heads up Jen, im sold! 💗
we have this brand in EU in supermarkets and I tried it several times Lots of their products are low quality - eyeshadows and powder products especially. Chalky and drying Maybe more suited for teenagers. You are pretty Will try the bronzer. thank you!
I have a cart full of stuff and I was hoping you’d review your new treasures. Those palettes look incredible. These are even more affordable than Profusion!
As always Jen is great company while enjoying my tea 🫖 I haven't heard of MUA before now. Unfortunately, the postage cost for mailing to Canada isn't that affordable anymore :( I was ordering my mineral makeup from the States for years until the company raised the postage costs even though the order was mailed from Spain 😏 I have my tea and other treats from the UK that I enjoy 🥰 Take care everyone 🌹
Thank you Jen I just placed my order. Can't wait to play with some new makeup. I placed a pretty decent order with yours and another comments recommendations. 💗💗
Are the shimmers similar to the BH Cosmetics shimmers in the square pan travel palettes Love in London etc. ? Those are some of the best shimmers ever in my opinion etc. thank you for the video Jen. !! I loved it as usual ♥️♥️♥️

As a Brit, I just wanna say thanks for highlighting MUA, they are such an underrated brand, even here.
I think whoever designs the products has great colour intelligence, they always feel well chosen and a bit off the beaten path.
The lqiuid blush in rouge noir especially.
The shade groupings are what I noticed first. They really do seem to know something about color theory, and how to pair.
MUA is extremely popular in Greece right now, they're all over greek tiktok and for good reason.
MUA Makeup Academy was carried in CVS stores less than 10 years ago.
Yes! I wasn't a fan of the brand back then but they've come a long way!
@@JenPhelpsme neither!
@@JenPhelps You are so right! I especially remember their lipsticks were the worst in the drugstore.
Christine, Jen just said that.....
I remember that! I had an eyeshadow brush from the brand that I really loved.
As a UK gal I’m so so excited to watch this! I love MUA so much! Have you ever tried Collection Cosmetics, another UK brand so so affordable and they’ve recently launched a blush and highlight wand that’s BETTER than the ELF one! I tested them comparing them recently and I’m head over heels for them xx
Ooh that sounds awesome! I haven't tried them yet!
Oooh thanks for the recommendation! I'll defo pick those up next time I'm in Boots / Superdrug 😍
The Collection concealer became a really cult product here in the UK. Emma x

That turquoise shade in the Wilderness palette is to die for. Stunning! What a beautiful palette for autumn this would be!
The shimmers in those palettes are insane, they feel almost wet to the touch. I don't have anything similar formula wise.

Thanks Jen , you read my mind I saw it on shorts and wished someone would do a full review , loved the look ! So pretty ❤
So glad you’re sharing the MUA love! I’ve been a fan for a while and talked about several of their products on my channel too. I highly recommend their eyebrow pencil, it’s my holy grail!!
Oooh I need to try that! Thanks for the recommendation 😍
It’s crazy shipping from UK to US is quicker than getting something shipped from one state to another 🤣
Probably because they know she's a beauty influencer and a beauty TH-camr. They wanted to make sure that she got them on time. Lol. 🌞
@@AMDG_-nk2dp Don't know about Jen, but some other youtubers always order to a different name and address just to be sure that wouldn't happen.

I also saw the Makeup by Mario last palette which many thought it wasn’t pigmented enough: they’re selling for 300+ $ 😮. Sheer is where it’s at 🎉
This brand is available in the EU as well! At least here in Finland, they are available in some stores. :) I recently bought the Desert Bloom palette and it's amazing! I kinda want to get other shades now too... Love your videos, Jen!

I know you weren’t thrilled with the skin tint but when you first applied it, your skin looked amazing! It would be worth the touch up to me!
It looked great initially but also looked a little dry. I'll have to see if I can maybe use a hydrating primer to help it a bit. 🥰

I have never heard about this brand before your video, but I am so much impressed by the products especially for the eyeshadows. They are really dupe for Natasha Denona’s eyeshadows
Totally agree! As good as nd & pmg❤
These cooler toned palettes look a LOT like the Huda Beauty Rose Quartz! You should do a comparison and see if they're dupes!
Thanks for doing a review on this brand. The colors are really super pretty.

Great review of a new product for me. That bronzer looked beautiful on you! The blushes were also pretty. I don’t like very intense blush colors any more… so these would be a good choice for me.

Hallo Jen, so pretty. I love seeing demo's and reviewing stuff from new brands to me. Really loved the eye look. Thank you 💙
Gonna try the palettes & foundation
The stands for this brand in most Superdrug’s here in the UK are so lacklustre, in smaller stores they have the tiniest of spaces or are on end of asile gondola you just bypass, the other brands get the better spaces and are pushed more.
This is true, you have to order online for the best range. My Superdrug has a really good selection but it is one of those MASSIVE stores
Oh yeah they'll always be on the naff spinning counters 😅
I used to use MUA palettes and also the Sleek ones years ago when palettes first became a thing. They were pretty good then too. Must go into Superdrug over here in the UK and have a look at these newer ones. Emma x
I’ve been waiting on this one!!! I really want to try this brand out!
ME TOO!
jen I live in the uk and some brands based here can take up to 2wks on times not always but the time limit you received these is brilliant xx
I love how it looks on you. The glow on the cheeks looks very natural. Great prices❤
Hi 👋 Jen. This brand looks so good and great value too. Your skin looks amazing, like you have just got back from a Vacay in Hawaii. You can notice them but they look like a skin finish. Beautiful. Even the Chanel bronzer is sheer and needs a bit of layering so the Mua one looks very similar to it. The lip balms were so pretty. Thanks for doing a review on these. Ive been hoping you would. Xxxx
I live in the UK and MUA is such an underrated brand here! I've got the palettes in the plastic casing and they are brilliant! I'm going to try a cream blush next
Thanks for showcasing this brand!
The liquid blush are fab as are their lip pencils and Stylo Satin Sheen Lipsticks - Heroic shade is my fave 🎉
Good afternoon, Jen! Thank you for this video! I had seen your short, which was amazing 😊❤
Hi Christa! I got so many requests after that short I figured I better make a full video, haha! 🥰🥰
@@JenPhelps I'm so glad you did a full video. I have my cart already lined up! Lol
I'm excited to get my new MUA products! Thank u so much girl!!!
Hey Jen just wanted to say how much I appreciate you being open minded about China as a mfr origin. As a chinese American I am very frustrated by the rampant unsubstantiated, unresearched anti-China and racist language that folks in this community use and it’s so nice to see someone not fall into that.
There are a lot of brands that manufacture in China that are wonderful and I think it unfortunately gets a bad reputation because of certain documentaries that have come out and because of the counterfeit industry, but I hope people realize that that's a small portion of makeup that's made there. :)
Just because someone expresses anti China sentiments doesn't mean they're racist. Perhaps they just don't want to support Communism and would rather strengthen their own country's economy by purchasing domestic products.
I completely agree! It drives me insane when people say something’s bad because it’s made in China. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll see a 1 star review and all it says is “made in China.” I’m like, ummm, okay…that was helpful 🤦♀️ I’d love for them to go through their home and make a “made in China” pile and a “made elsewhere” pile. I guarantee they’d be shocked to see how huge the “made in China” pile is compared to the “made elsewhere” pile. Like get out of here with that crap! Just because it’s made in China does NOT mean it’s bad or dangerous. There’s TONS of brands from drugstore to high end that manufacture in China and they’re amazing. People automatically think being made in China makes it cheap and use dangerous ingredients…like Jen said, because of documentaries (like Netflix Broken) but in those they were talking about counterfeits not real brands selling products. Counterfeits are dangerous no matter where they’re manufactured because they’re claiming to be that brand, like let’s say Huda, they’re claiming it’s a Huda palette so it has the packaging for that Huda’ palette, which means it has the ingredient list for that Huda palette, so there’s no way of knowing what’s actually in it. But real brands use their own packaging with their own ingredient list. Just drives me nuts! Sorry for the rant! 😅

Thats the problem nowadays, the lack of culture and interest to know anything . Watching Netflix to have an opinion is simply pathetic . And as I wrote many times before isnt only the products themselves made in China , where they think the plastic for packaging in any product (high end or low cost) comes from ...or the metal ? I'm so tired of people not having a clue about anything. Well , after covid nothing surprises me . The lack of sense and real pleasure for getting information is simply dead in the majority of the people. Just follow the crowds ........ and believe anything THEY want you to believe. No thanks, for me !
@@onewhisper22005they'd be raging to know how many products are produced in china. Even with the cruelty free concerns, I believe that law has changed so it's no longer mandatory. You just need to do some research before purchasing
I saw this on your shorts, so excited for the video!
I was looking forward to watching your review of palettes of eyeshadows from MUA, because I trust you. Yesterday, I bought the cream blush from MUA , named watermelon and I tried. It is stunning. Today, I have day off from my new job and I am happy to watch your new video. I totally buy the palette of eyeshadows from this company. Thanks a lot 😊😊. Have a nice day and love from Greece ❤️😊. Today, I will watch your another video. Fortunately, there are in Greece. You have a great vibe. Thanks for your company. I really appreciate your reviews and opinions of products makeup.
Thank you so much! And I'm so glad you were able to find them where you live!
Love, love the make-up look. MUA sounds so goooood & affordable. I didn’t see Canada on their list of countries to ship to. 🤷♀️ (Also, your backdrop is beautiful and inviting.) 💕 Thx Jen.
Cool tones look so pretty on you!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stop telling America about the UK's best kept drugstore secret!! 😂
Seriously though- I've always wondered what the fuss about Revolution was when MUA has always been way better.
UK people- remember those old school £1 single eyeshadows? I recently found a few lurking in my old singles palettes. And they STILL work beautifully. MUA always had the best stuff at the best prices (they were kinda our equivalent of the old school ELF, with similar 1-2 dollar/pound price points).
I remember during my mid 2010 introduction to Zoe sugg and that gang MUA popped up quite a bit, forgot about them tbh but this is quite nice and nostalgic in a way
Thanks for this! Now I’m off to buy a bunch of more super pretty make up I don’t need! Love your content Keep up the good work.
Read your comments about this brand so I looked up their website. CVS carried it quite a while ago. Their prices (USD) are really low. It's nice to have another low-cost alternative.
Yes, back in 2014 they launched in the US but they weren't great back then and it didn't seem to take off.
yes, I remember this brand at my local CVS a while ago. but it only had a small end cap in the beauty section and was picked over.
I still have a super tiny eyeshadow palette by MUA that I got from CVS years ago. And actually the formula is really good, which is why I’ve held on to it so long.
Ok. I can’t wait to try this brand now! Thank you so much Jen!! Those metallic shadows 😍✨
I have difficulty finding deeper cool-toned shadows but theirs may work for me!
WooHoo!!! Didn’t know u would be doing the review this fast! Thanks Jen. I will be buying some of these items! Also, ur eye look turned out fantastic!
Hi Jen, Thank you for the detailed review! ❤
Didn't even finish the order before dropping 3 digits on the site! Can't wait to try everything out!!
Thank you for reviewing so quickly and thoroughly! You are so helpful and I trust your opinions. 😊
Amazing Jen! So exciting to find a new gem brand for affordable prices! You look lovely 🥰
I got a darker bronzer and hope it shoes up a lil better but I'm so excited!
You look pretty in pink. And, as always, love the look you created. Have you tried the Caliray tubing mascara? Curious how it stacks up for you.
Yes I love that one! I mentioned it in several videos last Spring/summer but I can't remember which ones now. It's a really great formula and one of my favorites!
For those who live in Germany they are sold at Douglas and Notino😊. I never seen anybody speak about this brand❤
Gut zu wissen, danke :D
I have never heard or seen this brand before. Thank you Jen. You look beautiful in this video. 😊❤
Hi. Im in the UK and I have always bought everything but MUA. I decided to try the butterscotch bronzer. OMG my skin looks amazing! I was disappointed with the light lustre shimmer spray. It squirts rather than mists so it's not good for the face. Thanks for the heads up Jen, im sold! 💗
Thank you Jen for the review! I will be placing an order for sure! 💗
Thank you! I just placed an order. Had my cart waiting for your review 😂
*update I’m very surprised that I have not yet received my order! I placed it two weeks ago…
You've introduced me to different brands. For example, this one, moira, doll 10, etc. Thank you.
Yeah that Caliray definitely has some really good looking coverage.....(looks more than light coverage) and those eyeshadows are so gorgeous 🥰🥰
I remember suggesting this! I love the palettes so much!!! ❤
we have this brand in EU in supermarkets and I tried it several times Lots of their products are low quality - eyeshadows and powder products especially. Chalky and drying
Maybe more suited for teenagers. You are pretty Will try the bronzer. thank you!
I have a cart full of stuff and I was hoping you’d review your new treasures. Those palettes look incredible. These are even more affordable than Profusion!
As always Jen is great company while enjoying my tea 🫖 I haven't heard of MUA before now. Unfortunately, the postage cost for mailing to Canada isn't that affordable anymore :( I was ordering my mineral makeup from the States for years until the company raised the postage costs even though the order was mailed from Spain 😏 I have my tea and other treats from the UK that I enjoy 🥰 Take care everyone 🌹
Beautiful! Fun products. 💛🌻
Awesome video, Jen, thank you so much!
Thank you Jen I just placed my order. Can't wait to play with some new makeup. I placed a pretty decent order with yours and another comments recommendations. 💗💗
You'll love the products! It's Sue from the UK ❤
Hi jen, great video, I live in UK and haven't tried MUA products. I will now! Thank you jen .
I agree, mua shadows in cardboard packaging are very very poor next to those in plastic.
Oh Jen what are you doing to me? Alter Ego 2 beautiful pallets and now MUA all beautiful. Thank you and love you❤❤❤
Are the shimmers similar to the BH Cosmetics shimmers in the square pan travel palettes Love in London etc. ? Those are some of the best shimmers ever in my opinion etc. thank you for the video Jen. !! I loved it as usual ♥️♥️♥️
Beautiful job on the eyeshadow!
