So question, am I the last person around to find out about this palette?? It seems like I’m seeing this palette popping up all over different blogs lately. Anyways… before I get too excited and start right into my favorite find of the year so far, I have to give credit where credit is due. I learned about this palette from an excellent review that Laura from Laurasallmadeupbeauty did about a month ago. Having wanted a Naked palette for forever but not wanting to spend $50, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read her review and ordered it right away! So this find is all thanks to the other blogging “Laura” 🙂 I chose to still do my own review since we have followers she doesn’t and vice versa….  OH MY WORD! I can’t say enough how much I love this palette! With the exception of a fewminor differences, it’s a perfect dupe in my opinion! AND, the colors are lined up in the exact order as Naked, so this is a plus plus in my book! – PRICE!! The MUA palette is €4. MUA is a Europe based company so you have to order it online. With the palette being €4, worldwide shipping was €7, my complete total out the door was 18 US dollars! I received my order 11 days later with no problems! – The MUA palette doesn’t come with names for the shades, instead it has them numbered on the back of the palette. It’s not a huge deal to me, however I can see it being a little frustrating doing a tutorial and trying to explain what color you are using.  – Also, Naked comes with a true shadow brush while MUA comes with a two sided shadow sponge applicator. If you already have an eyeshadow brush (I’m assuming you all do), then this is no problem.  There are some very slight differences in coloring with a few of the shades. For instance, MUA #2 is much more pigmented than Naked’s Sin. While Naked’s Hustle is more pigmented than MUA’s #10. All in all, it’s just about as close as you can get without being the Naked palette!  mua1 #3/Naked were swatched on the arm but didn’t show up on my skin tone. mua2-1 I’ve listed the MUA #s according to the bottom of the palette and also their Naked dupe name. mua3 A soft smokey eye Steph created on me using #1,#2 and #12!
