(Sorry for the awful/dirty picture, I just couldn't hold myself back from using it!)
The Undressed palette is MUA's answer to Urban Decay's Naked palette and, I assure you, it doesn't disappoint. At just £4 (less than €5, holy moly!!) this palette is a steal! Available here.
It includes 12 neutral shades, from a pale shimmer, through golden tones, to an intense black. (C'mon girls, we all know how difficult it is to find a highly pigmented black shadow!) It has two matte shadows, and the rest are packed with a gorgeous satin shimmer that sticks really well to the lids (without sliding halfway down you face, leaving you looking like a disco ball). The pigmentation and colour payoff of each shade is impressive, needing just a quick swipe to give intense coverage. As for the texture of the shadows, they're very creamy and smooth, not chalky at all.

Downsides? There's little to nothing I dislike about this palette. The packaging isn't exactly pretty; it's quite plastic-y and flimsy, and I don't think anyone like those sponge applicators. But those are just minor details, and for that cheap-as-chips price tag, I can easily overlook them.
Overall: I would recommend this palette right down to the ground! It's a perfect addition to any make-up kit, and has quickly become a favourite of mine. This quality for that price? You can't go wrong.
Rating: 9/10
