MUA Heaven & Earth Palette Review, Swatches
I spend hours together sometimes looking for the right makeup product. This process is seasonal.. Seasonal?? Yeah, I suddenly look for only foundations and I read many blogs, reviews & buy foundations. This phase lingers for about a month. Next starts the eye shadow fever and then something else will crop up for sure.. Is this normal? Who knows but I am happy at the end of the day.
Today I bring to you a very affordable eyeshadow palette with lovely neutral shades – MUA Heaven & Earth Eyeshadow Palette. The name of the palette is so unique and the colors range from pale highlighters to dark brown. As you might have read it here, I got this palette as a gift from my brother from London..

MUA Heaven & Earth Packaging:
When I read about the MUA Heaven & Earth in other blogs , I had a completely different picture about it. It looked quite big but in person it looks very sleek, small & travel friendly. The product comes in a plastic black casing with a transparent lid where the colors are clearly visible and it is extremely light-weight. It contains a two-sided sponge tip applicator which looks very flimsy & will not be of any use to us.

| MUA Heaven & Earth Palette - Swatches |
The palette has 12 neutral shades that are buttery smooth in texture and are pearl or shimmery finish. There is not a single matte color in the palette. The shades do not have a name , so I am referring to them by numbers from the top left corner of the palette.
Color No 1 : A pearl finish cream color which can be used as a highlight color for browbone & tear duct area.
Color No 2: A peachy bronze shade which I think would look great on my Indian skintone. It can be worn as a single color for daily office wear or even for a party.
Color No 3: A pretty antique gold shade which slightly looks like olive green but is actually an antique gold when applied.
Color No 4: A beige shade with peach undertones. The pigmentation of this shade is very poor and can be a good highlight color.
Color No 5: A pretty jewel toned dark brown shade and I am in love with this shade. Such a pretty brown that can work as a crease color.
Color No 6: A perfect Indian gold shade that can work wonders as a single all over lid shade or in combination with browns.
Color No 7: A coppery brown shade but the pigmentation has let down this shade.
Color No 8: A taupe shade that can work as a good transition color in the crease and the texture of this shade is very soft.
Color No 9: An excellently pigmented beige shade with cool undertones which makes it more or less a silver shade.
Color No 10: A cool toned light brown shade which might suit pink undertone skin.
Color No 11: A pretty chocolate brown shade that can be used as a single color.
Color No 12: A dark brown shade with a lot of glitter particles which can be used for a glamorous eye makeup , but the pigmentation is poor.
MUA Heaven & Earth Price and Staying Power:

| MUA Heaven & Earth Palette Under Natural Light |
The MUA Heaven & Earth palette can be purchased in the following links :For those in the UK - Priced at 4 pounds
For those in India - Priced at INR 799
The price of the product is so affordable when compared to other palettes available in India with lesser number of colors. For beginners it is such a good palette with all neutral colors.
The staying power of the shadows is quite good even without a primer. It stayed without smudging for about 4 hours for me. With a primer underneath, the colors are more prominent & the staying power increases. The fallout is minimal.
