the MUA 12 shade undressed palette vs the Urban Decay Naked eyeshadow palette (original).
$62
$6
verdict.
the MUA palette is a great and almost exact dupe for the UD Naked palette. at a fraction of the cost, it gets the job done to a very similar standard.
​
you save.
$56 (aud)

the similarities.
both palettes contain 10 metallic shades and two matte shades. almost every MUA shade matches up to a Urban Decay one.
​
the differences.
all the MUA shades are slightly more powdery than the UD ones, but if you layer and/or use a primer the metallic ones especially can build up to an intense pigment similar to UD. the UD brush is from their cruelty free range while the MUA brush is tacky and useless.
