Fashionista Customised Eyeshadow Palette Review

When MUA released on their Facebook Page  that they were going to be selling Fashionista products on their website I was so excited. For the longest time I had wanted to create a Fashionista Customised Palette for a long time. As far as I am aware this is the closest that you can get to a MAC Fill Your Own Palette on the highstreet/drugstore. I am sure you are all aware of the MAC concept in which you buy a empty palette and you can fill it with whatever eyeshadows/blushes/bronzers you choose. This is the exact same concept but for a fraction of the price.

A little while ago I reviewed my Fashionista Customised Blush Palette which I absolutely love. Today I thought I would share with you my eyeshadow one. I love the concept behind these palettes as you can create them specifically for your needs. I think they are perfect for travelling as you can have all your powder products in one place which leaves space in your bag for more lipsticks.

There are 4 palettes to choose from. This  black one with Fashionista written all over it, a red one which has Fashionista written in the corner or a silver leopard print one. These 3 are all 4 pan palettes and can hold 4 eyeshadows/blushes/ bronzers or a combination. There is one 6 pan palette which is plain white. The palettes themselves are really sturdy and come with a good sized mirror.

I really like how you can still see the shade names once they are in the palette. When you put an eyeshadow into a MAC palette the only way to see the shade name is to take the pan out of the palette or memorise the name of it which can be hard when you have a massive collection of eyeshadows. The eyeshadow pans are really easy to put into the palette and are easy to take out as well so you can switch up your palette depending on the season or your current favourite shades.

The eyeshadow shades that I chose were (from left to right)  Frozen, Nude Glimmer, Gold Rush and Radiant
Frozen is a gorgeous silver shade which I use to highlight the inner corner of my eyes. It looks beautiful and it helps to brighten up my eye area. Nude Glimmer is my most used eyeshadow from this palette as it is a gorgeous light shimmery brown. This is great for adding just a wash of colour to your lids and I often wear it to school. Gold Rush is a gorgeous brown shade with gold shimmer running through it. I love this shade and it looks beautiful on top of my Maybelline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze. The last eyeshadow is Radiant which is a gorgeous brown colour with a hint of gold in it. I love these eyeshadows they are all really pigmented and glide onto my lids. They are easy to blend and they last all day. The only one that I have noticed fall out from is Gold Rush but I don'r mind too much as it is a gorgeous colour.

This year I really want to try more things from Fashionista whilst the products are still on the MUA website. I'm sure I will be creating another palette as I love them so much. For the price the quality is amazing.
he 4 pan palettes cost £2 each and the 6 pan palette costs £3. Each individual blush, eyeshadow and bronzer are £1.65. However MUA over a deal so you can fill a 4 pan palette for £7 (saving you £1.40) and a 6 pan palette for £10 (saving you £2.90). 
If you want to purchase a palette or an individual shade then you can 
here. I recommend that you look up the shades online as the little pictures on the website can be a little misleading. 

Have you made one of these palettes? Do you have any Fashionista recommendations?

Fashionista Customised Blush Palette Review

I have had this palette for such a long time and it has taken me far too long to write this review. When MUA released on their Facebook Page  that they were going to be selling Fashionista products on their website I was so excited. For the longest time I had wanted to create a Fashionista Customised Palette for a long time. As far as I am aware this is the closest that you can get to a MAC Fill Your Own Palette on the highstreet/drugstore. I am sure you are all aware of the MAC concept in which you buy a empty palette and you can fill it with whatever eyeshadows/blushes/bronzers you choose. This is the exact same concept but for a fraction of the price.

There are 4 palettes to choose from. A black one with Fashionista written all over it, this red one which has Fashionista written in the corner or a silver leopard print one. These 3 are all 4 pan palettes and can hold 4 eyeshadows/blushes/ bronzers or a combination. There is one 6 pan palette which is plain white. I chose to fill my palette with blushes and I also got one just for eyeshadows. In the future I plan to make more as I love the way that you can customise them and I think they would come in handy when travelling as you could create one that had some eyeshadows, blushes and bronzers in so you wouldn't have to carry so many products with you as they would be all in one palette. The palettes themselves are really sturdy and come with a good sized mirror.

Each eyeshadow/blush/bronzer comes in a plastic case which you can keep them in your pop the pans out to put in your palette. The pans pop out very easily and I love that when you put them in the palette you can still see the shade name from the bottom.

The four shades I chose were (from left to right) Rose Shine, Flush, Glowing and Milan. Fashionista has a wide range of colours to choose from so the combinations you can make are endless. As you can see the majority of the blushes I chose are pink as this is the shade that I most often wear. The quality of these blushes are fantastic; they are pigmented and easy to work with. I have been blown away by how good they are considering the cheap prices. I have included some swatches below so you can see how amazing the pigmentation is.

As you can see these blushes are an amazing quality and unlike brands like MAC these are super affordable. The 4 pan palettes cost £2 each and the 6 pan palette costs £3. Each individual blush, eyeshadow and bronzer are £1.65. However MUA over a deal so you can fill a 4 pan palette for £7 (saving you £1.40) and a 6 pan palette for £10 
(saving you £2.90). 

I am totally in love with this palette and I will definitely be getting another one I also have an eyeshadow one which I will be talking about soon. 

If you want to purchase a palette or an individual shade then you can here. (This weekend they have free shipping if you use this code MUAOCT20). I recommend that you look up the shades online as the little pictures on the website can be a little misleading. 

Have you tried these palettes?

MUA Haul


When I found out that MUA were going to be selling Fashionista products I knew I'd be making an order. I have been wanting a Fashionista palette for ages and this was a great opportunity for me to try them. You can fill a palette for £7 which is fantastic value. 

I decided to get 2 palettes one for blush and one for eyeshadow. In my blush palette I got the shades Rose Shine, Flush, Glowing and Milan. My eyeshadow palette contains Frozen, Nude Glimmer, Radiant and Gold Rush. I love the fact that you can customize your own palette.I also got a bronzer in the shade Barcelona.  I picked up another brush as I love the MUA brushes, I got the E2- Eyeshadow Contouring brush. I also picked 2 of MUA''s new blushes in Marshmallow and Candyfloss. That's all I bought and you can expect to see reviews of the products shortly.

What have you bought recently?
