MUA Cosmetics Spring Break Palette Review

Finally I have my hands on the newest MUA Palette; Spring Break. I love MUA Palettes because they are so affordable at £4, contain 12 super-impressive shades and in general look amazing. I've been hunting for this since it was released and none of the Superdrug stores in my local area had this in stock until now so naturally, I grabbed it as fast as I could.

 'Leap into Spring with this wearable, combination colour palette. The mix of stunning shimmers in neutrals, pinks and soft green hues encapsulates the revitalised colours of the new year and are perfect for creating a fresh, enhancing look'. - MUA Cosmetics.

Once again, this palette has been designed in their classic black palette and contains the most gorgeous 12 shades, perfect for Spring. There are a lot of neutral colours with splashes of brighter colours like that pretty purple in the bottom right corner and that amazingly beautiful minty-teal shade on the bottom row.

The consistencies of these colours, and of the newer MUA palettes have been developed so much nicer than the original MUA palettes and I feel like they have nicer colour payoff.

 

On the top row from left to right the shades are:

Refine, Cherub, Amber, Spearmint, Posy and Sorrel

On the bottom row from left to right the shades are:

Aurora, Bronze Blush, Catacomb, Sea Foam, Gold Khaki and Damson

Refine – A pink toned, matte neutral

Cherub – A soft, pearl pastel pink

Amber – A beautiful, pigment packed rose gold shimmer

Spearmint – A silver toned, pearl neutral with a hint of mint

Posy – A floral pink pearl shadow

Sorrel – A deep mauve shimmer

Aurora – A beautiful off-white pearl, perfect for highlighting

Bronze Blush – A rose toned bronze shimmer

Catacomb – A soft gold toned pearl shade

Sea Foam – A pearl pastel turquoise trend shade

Gold Khaki – Exactly what it says on the tin

Damson – A pigment packed pearl finish plum

As you can see by the swatches, the colours are absolutely gorgeous, packed full of shimmer and have excellent pigmentation. Some of the neutral shades will suit every skin tone and there is an optional colour splash to compliment your own eye colour, for example Gold Khaki for brown eyes, Damson for green eyes and Sea Foam or Posy for blue eyes. The formula of the shadows are so buttery and creamy and aren't blotchy at all.

 

 Application was really easy and they definitely stand out and blend really easily. The palette also comes with the dual-ended sponge applicator which is pretty much useless for application and I never use these anyway from any palette.

 

Overall, this is definitely going to be an essential Spring palette for me, I love it so much, especially the shades Damson, Sea Foam and Posy.

 

Have you tried this palette? What are your favourite shades?
