MUA meets Fashionista!


Hello Beautiful!

If you've read any of my previous posts, you'll know I am a big fan of the brand MUA. They're affordable products always seize to amaze me!

Since their launch, the brand has grown - creating more quality products at unbelievable prices (which is enough to make any blogger's heart melt!). It seems like the brand just gets better with age!

Last week, I discovered that the brand had teamed up with make up brand Fashionista to create a new range of products.

I was desperate to try them, and decided to treat myself to a palette, items to fill the palette and an eyebrow kit as I have unfortunately lost my last MUA eyebrow palette.

My Palette!
The my palette consists of two blushers, a bronzer and 3 eye shadows. All of the items are very pigmented and come in a very decent size! With the palette costing me £10, I think it is a very decent deal and would recommend anyone who likes to top up their eye shadows or make up throughout the day. I don't wear eye shadows that much in the day, which explains my dark, bold colour choices and I know that I will wear them a lot on nights out!

I really like this kit; and think in ways is very similar to the MUA kit. However, today I have noticed that the Fashionista palette lasts a lot longer than the Pro-brow and, it may be a more personal choice, looks more natural.  At the moment, the kit is £3.50 instead of £7 which is a very good deal!

So far, I'm really liking the quality of these items and will keep you up to date with any more feedback I have on the items.

What are your thoughts on MUA?

Quick review - MUA power pout

Hello my beauties!

I'm going to do a quick review on the new lip tint/balm pen by the amazing and affordable brand MUA.

The new power pout lip tints are very similar to the Revlon Just Bitten and the Jelly Pong Pong pens , but half of the price.



 
The pens
 
I love these pens, and to top it off - some of them are named after Beyonce singles! Which I find pretty cute.
 
They smell alot like mints, which I weidly like about these products because it 'could' make your lips smell minty fresh.
 
However, the stain is not long lasting - which unfortunatly is the downside to these pens. But when there this cheap, you can't complain!
 
The colour are very weareble, with nudes, oranges and pinks; which are luckily colours that suit my skin tone.
 
The pens can be purchased online or directly at your local Superdrug.
 
What are your favourite lip pens?

Make Up Review: MUA Undress Me Too! Palette

Hello my Beauties!


Everyone who is interested in make up will have heard of the Urban Decay Naked palettes - a mixture of neutral eyeshadow's consisting of matte & shimmer shades. Anyone who has ever attempted to try & buy the palette will know how expensive it is (worth the price, may be so).



However, the make up team at MUA have given them a run for their money - by creating two dupe palettes at a fraction of the price! The Undressed & Undress Me too (Naked & Naked 2)



Today's review is on the newest palette - Undress Me Too - which sold 1,000 copies in the first day (yes, they're THAT good!)


Here's some swatches:




As you can see, they are quite shimmery but the pigment of the colours are incredible for saying that the palette is only £4 from their website. Now, to compare to the actual Urban Decay Palette:




Pretty good duplication if you ask me!


In my opinion, although I do like Urban Decays palettes - not everyone can afford them & MUA have made an exceptional duplication of the product which is extremely purse friendly. Keep up the work MUA!

Brand Review: MUA

Hello again my Darlings!

I just couldn't resist doing another entry! :) and today I am going to review (well, express really!) a brand that I have known for quite a while now.

MUA (standing for make up academy) is a affordable cosmetics company which is based in the UK. The brand delivers quality make up for a fraction of the expected price! for example:- a lipstick may be £1, nail polish - £1 and single eye shadows for £1! Total bargains in the economy we have at the moment!

But, It doesn't stop there! the brand also has a professional line, containing foundations, eyebrow kits, mascaras! everyone of their products are under a tenner! including the pro range :)

What makes them unique compared to the rest of the beauty companies out there is there interaction with their customers. MUA have both a Facebook and Twitter feed which helps them keep in touch with their customers; asking them what products they want, showing how to use the products & their offers when they reach a certain amount of likes/followers. For example, at the moment they have 50% of their products a free international shipping! and you thought that they were cheap enough!

I really do adore the brand; quick shipping, new products every month! Seriously, check them out online or in your nearest superdrug!
