"The shade Sandstorm is actually nice for warm/deep skin — that’s the only good thing. But the product itself is so crumbly it’s basically dust inside the pan. Every time I dip my brush, powder flies everywhere — super messy and wasteful. It applies dry, doesn’t blend smoothly, and looks patchy. It feels like it’s already half broken. Disappointing for the price — won’t buy again."

Parabens are a synthetic chemical preservative - they help keep formulas free of bacteria of your fave makeup items. Did you know they can also be found in food items? Although they have got a bad rep in recent years due to a study on its
carcinogenic nature. This has been reviewed multiple times and has been deemed safe for use in cosmetics. They are actually really helpful to make sure your beauty items don't break down too quickly. We use them in mall amounts in our products, primarily two types of paraben: methylparaben and propylparaben.
A few of our items contain parabens - this actually under 10% of all of our products.
If you are actively trying to avoid parabens, the following MUA items that do contain parabens are as follows:
MUA EYE DEFINE MASCARA - WATERPROOF
MUA AMPLIFY MASCARA
MUA LOADED LASH MASCARA XL
MUA BROW DEFINE UNIVERSAL KIT
A sulphate is a chemical that can be found across many personal care items and is usually named Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Sodium Laureth Sulphate & Ammonium Lauryl Sulphate to name a few. They are usually derived from oils rich in lauric acid such as coconut and/or palm kernel oil. They are used in products to help bind ingredients such as oil and water together plus can create lather in things such as shampoo. Over the last couple of years, sulphates have gained a reputation for being potentially arcinogenic (cancer-causing) as a result of their manufacturing processes. As it stands, thereare no scientific studies to back this and it has been deemed safe to use under the EU regulations.
They have also be branded as being 'harsh' and 'stripping'- this usually happens as some poeple are sensitive to them in high amounts. We use them in very tiny amounts in only 5 of our products, which makes them very safe.
Currently only x5 of our items contain sulphates. If you are trying to avoid sulphates, the following items that do contain sulphates are as follows:
MUA CURL MASCARA
MUA VOLUME MASCARA
MUA EYE DEFINE LASH FIX
MUA INTENSE COLOUR MASCARA
MUA BROW DEFINE STYLING SOAP
Essentially Mica is the stuff that makes your highlighter sparkle. It is a mineral that when ground down creates the dazzling, shiny powder. There are some bad practices out there when it comes to sourcing mica, of which we as a brand do not align with. This is why we work with our suppliers to ensure that all of our mica is sourced ethically from certified responsible raw material suppliers.

Reviews
This product is fabulous and
"This product is fabulous and the best thing is the applicator. It's a stick so you only use whats needed. Also nothing left in the bottle as every bit can be used."
— Lorna S. (5/5)
Fantastic for sensitive skin!
"I use the lightest shade of this, I've gone through soooo many bottles. This is my favourite foundation of all time, looks nice on its own or mixed with other foundations or serums. I really hope this isn't being discontinued because it's getting harder and harder to find it. I can't use the Lumi version because the niacinimide flares up my sensitive eczema prone skin. PLEASE DON'T DISCONTINUE!"
— LT (5/5)

— Lorna (5/5)
Great matte foundation
"The best shade match I've found, and I have dry skin, and it doesn't make me look overly dry as long as I moisturise first. I also have very very sensitive skin and I have no reaction to this. The only thing I don't like is the applicator i wish it came with a pump instead of a spatula."
— Freya (4/5)
