Thank God the Easter holidays are finally here! Last week was absolute madness with 2 assignments due in on the same day plus another presentation to prep for, but now that its all over and done with, I can finally begin to relax a little.
For today I thought i'd share with you all the much anticipated MUA Undress Me Too shadow palette, a supposed dupe for the Naked 2 palette.
Whether a dupe or not, its a beautiful palette consisting of cool neutrals in matte and shimmer textures.
This time, MUA have actually named their shadows, which is a nice touch and personally I prefer colours to have names as it makes them seem almost better than if they weren't named!
Top 3: Naked, Devotion, Shy. Bottom 3: Tranquil, Exposed, Reveal.
Top 3: Fiery, Lavish, Dreamy. Bottom 3: Wink, Obsessed, Corrupt.
The swatches were done without any primer underneath and the shimmer shades were easier to apply than the mattes, which were slightly chalky and took a couple of layers to stand out. However, since there's only 3 mattes in the whole palette, you're not losing too much!
The black, while a little difficult to get opaque, is surprisingly long wearing. After swatching, I took a shower and even after a whole lot of scrubbing the black still remained on my arm after every other colour had washed off! Not sure whether that's a good or bad thing...
The shimmer shades though, are packed full of pigment and glide on like butter. They blend easily and look gorgeous.
Overall this palette is absolutely stunning and its neutral shades with cool undertones make them perfect for easy, everyday wear. I can create endless looks with this palette and its quickly become one of my everyday essentials.
If you aren't sure about splashing out on the Naked 2 as your not sure if you'l even like the colours much, try this one out first. Maybe even get this as a travel substitute for the Naked 2, as its lightweight, compact and perfect for carrying around.
Have you tried this palette out yet? What do you think of it?

I have two of the other MUA neutral palettes so I won't be buying this until I've finished with at least one of the others. I think this is a great buy though and I really like the look of the shades :-)
Hey!! Firstly, I hope you have a lovely Easter break :) and have chance to unwind :)
I have this but not used it yet, my next post will have this in. I'm glad to hear you like it and you think it's worthy of buying...I have the Naked palette and love it, but not the 2nd. I'm sure there's no massive difference in the 2.
Thanks for showing us!
Happy Easter!!!

Woah, this looks so much like the Naked2 palette. If this palette was in the States, I wonder if I would have even bought Naked2. I love shades like these! :)
@Laura: Lol I have too many neutral palettes but somehow still "needed" this one! Good on you for waiting to finish up the others first! =) If you do get round to buying this one day, let me know what you think of it!!
@All things wonderful: Aw thank you darling, Happy Easter to you too!! =)
Ooh awesome, looking forward to that post! I'd love to know what you make of it!
I don't own either of the Nakeds, they do look absolutely amazing though. Have you done a post on your one yet?
Enjoy your Easter! =)

@Something polished: I know that you can buy MUA online, and they ship internationally too, so check out their site sometime! I love pretty much all of their things as they'r not only inexpensive, but amazing quality too =]
Shades like these are my favorite too, so easy to wear anytime of the day!
I bought this the other day and have fallen in love with it. I was using my Heaven and Earth palette but it was looking a bit srry for itself so got this instead - totally worth it!
Didn't pick up this one but it has lovely shades.
@Helly: Its beautiful isn't it? Aw I never tried the H&E palette, but this one is makes me feel like I don't have to! =]
@Beautyshades: If you ever do, please share! =D
