More MUA Products Haul

I went a little bit MUA crazy just before Christmas. Here are my spoils...

I originally went on for a bit of a browse and to see if I could get an eyebrow pencil...i didn't get an eyebrow pencil but I did get this super pretty eye shadow in shade 24 pearl. It isn't quite as buttery as I had hoped as I heard lots of good reviews about there single shadows but for £1 who can grumble!

I then went for this gel eyeliner...not sure why because I hardly every wear anything other than kohl but I really like this. It has a brush with it which is handy for travel but I use my benefit get bent liner brush. This stuff lasts all day and then some! This is in the shade underground and is a snip at £3.

I got these because who doesn't love glitter! I would only wear these on a night out but I think they are great addition to my make up collection. Top is Starry Night, bottom is Silver Sparkle and they are both £1.

Next I decided to bulk up my lippie collection as I have recently thrown lots of old lipsticks out.

I went for (L-R) Shade 15 Juicy, Shade 5, Shade 7, Shade 9. These are £1 each...bargain!

I couldn't resist trying one of these Intense Kissed which is like a highly pigmented lipgloss/lipstick. It is amazingly pigmented and I think I may buy more! This is shade Kiss and Tell for £2.

Without flash (L-R) Shade 15 Juicy, Shade 5, Shade 7, Shade 9, Kiss and Tell.

muastore.co.uk are running an offer at the minute of 50% off everything and free shipping so I am going to be placing another order tonight I think as these are such good quality for next to nothing!

Anyone recommend anything?

MUA Rave!

When all the hype started about MUA it kind of all past me by. One because I have tried budget makeup brands before and hated them and two because there wasn't a Superdrug that stocked MUA in my area.

After reading a review about MUA's mosaic blush being a dupe for Benefits Hervana, then I became a little more interested. 

I saw on twitter MUA had an offer on that if you bought one of their Lip Booms then you got the Immaculate Collection eye shadow pallet free, what a perfect time to make an online purchase!

As I put in a previous post that I went for the Lip Boom in Cheeky, Mosaic Blush and got the Immaculate Collection pallet free.

Well...This pallet is the bomb! (Yes I did just say 'the bomb!)

Why did I shy away from these shadows for so long! They are so pigmented, blend-able and cheap!

My favorite eye shadow formula is Urban Decays, MAC being a close second but these are up there as a contender. 

Some colours are better than others but on a whole, GOOD JOB MUA!

For £8 I think this is a must for those who are just starting out with make up and for make up pro's!

MUA Imacculate Collection can be bought here.

Naughty Naughty!

I have been trying to save money recently but I haven't been able to curb my makeup addiction! However I have tried to be somewhat savvy about my purchases! 

The Mac buys were from blog sales and I got them at bargain prices and they have hardly been used! The MUA stuff was off their website where they had an offer if you bought a Lip Boom for £3.00 and you got an Ultimate collection for free! I also popped the Mosaic Blush in my basket too as I had seen on someone s blog it was a dupe for Benefits Hervana! 

Mac Quad - Caviar Dreams - £15 (Blog sale)

Mac MSF - Porcelain Pink - £13 (Blog sale)

MUA Mosaic Blush - English Rose - £2.50

MUA Ultimate Collection - £8.00 (but I got it free)

MUA Lip Boom - Cheeky - £3.00

I am actually really impressed with the MUA products. I have never used any of them before but will be purchasing some more in the future! They appear to be well pigmented for the price. I haven't had much use out of them at the moment but can't see me having many issues with them!

The only thing I am not too keen on is that the Lip Boom was sealed my with some awful stickers which left icky sticky stuff on the tube which looks awful and no doubt will pick any fluff or whatever up in the bottom of a bag! 

Ugh. 

I hate sticky stuff! That and the gloss has quite a lot of glitter in it. I will probably wear it on a night out but think I will leave it out for the day time!

Even though these were quite cheap I think I should keep my purse in my bag for a while...I HAVE ENOUGH! I DO NOT NEED IT!

(...maybe :P)
