I have the Undressed and Heaven and Earth palletts, a primer and a blusher, and they're all fab. And cost me under a tenner for the lot. My very expensive Estee Lauder make-up habit has been broken. Except that I will always buy Lancome mascara and Estee Lauder foundation. But still - what bargains!

Ooohhhh, really?! I may have to investigate, especially as DS1 has posted all my make up out of the window!

Glad you're impressed too :) I was thinking yesterday, apart from my Mac foundation and Clinique or Soap & Glory mascara, I'd be quite happy to stick to MUA for everything else from now on :)

How did you find the primer? I've been debating whether or not to try it.

I was thinking this morning about starting a thread saying the same!

I got the Undressed palette and it is amazing, great everyday colours and the pigmentation is comparable to any high end brand.

I'm planning to pick up some blushes next time Smile

I got the cream blusher last week and already someone has complimented me on it

Watching with interest- are they as good as expensive make up then?

Yes, I am super pleased.

I've never used primer before, so I have no other brand to compare to, but I like it. I only use it underneath my eyeshadow though. I was recommended the Urban Decay one, which I could like to try, but for £2.50, I can't complain about the MUA one.

Much better than my Chanel eye shadows. They are better to apply and much more pigmented. The shimmer shadows are soft too, not too glittery but nice and sheeny.

Also 4 Chanel eye shadows £30 and a bit Hmm versus palette of 12 MUA much better shadows £4 plus a free lip gloss, which was also lovely!

Peachypips- Yes, from superdrug. I popped in earlier and picked up a few bits. Yet to try them. Its obviously a popular range, they didn't have much stock!

I bought the natural eyeshadow palette on recommendation from on here. Total bargain!

Does anyone have the blushes? I would like a powder so would be interested to hear what people have liked. Am pale-ish, brown hair.

Oooh, free online delivery for anyone wanting to try it but not near a store. Until 24th. Great, I thought I couldn't order it online because the post would be more than the products!

After the recommendation on here I popped in to my local Superdrug last week. I bought a nail caviar (little beads that stick to your nails), powder blusher, creme eyeliner in black and ended up getting 3 free lipglosses (handy stocking fillers for my young nieces!). All for about £6.

Only tried the blush so far, and I am impressed. I'm in work so cant remember the colour but it is a lovely dolly pinky peach. Lasted all day and for a £1 it's a no brainer.

So thank you to the Mnetter who recommended as I probably would have walked on by without the recommendation!
