MUA Power Pout Colour Intense Tint & Balms

I first saw these products on the MUA blog and I instantly knew I had to try them because they are the sort of lip product I am interested in. Bold colours but suitable if you are afraid of colour because they are not as powerful as your standard lipstick, so right up my street.

The packaging is like most chubby lip crayons. It has a chubby plastic barrel and the colour of each barrel reflects what the shade is. It has the silver band around the base of the barrel and the plastic lid, which is also the same colour as the barrel. For application you twist the silver band and the product will push up through the barrel. The tip of the crayon is pointy and slightly skinny and the formula is light and glossy. I’m not sure exactly how much product you get, but if you twist it up completely you can see 3.5cm of the product and there could be more hidden in the barrel, which may require the use of a lip brush to get it out.

There are currently six shades available which include, Broken Hearted, Crazy In Love, Irreplaceable, Justify, Rendezvous and Runway. The shades range from subtle to intense and there is a colour for everyone.

After swatching all the shades I decided to pick up Irreplaceable, which is a hot raspberry pink and Justify, which is a soft pink coral.

This chubby lip crayon should give your lips intense colour and be easy to build from a soft sheer look to intensity. It should be easy to use and dispense, be moisturising for your lips as well as treating them if they are dry or cracked. Most of all, your lips should look “good enough to kiss” – MUAstore.co.uk.

I really like this product. The packaging is lovely and it is very easy to use and dispense. It has a slight minty scent and is quite moisturising on the lips. You can easily build the colour from a soft sheer shade by blending it with your finger and then for intense colour pay off, just apply it straight from the barrel. The brighter the colour you choose, the more intense the overall colour payoff is. The colour can last up to two hours on your lips if you do not eat or drink anything and then after you can see the slight tint/stain that is left behind. I’m not sure whether it would really treat your lips though. I prefer a regular lip balm for treatment because if you apply a bright colour over dry or cracked lips it would be very obvious and I’m guessing your lips would look even more ghastly. The only real problem I have with this product is that the lid is not very secure. If you leave it rolling around in your handbag, you are likely to find it lidless and the colour smushed all around the interior of your handbag!

Overall your lips do look good enough to kiss and I would definitely consider purchasing more shades and I hope MUA bring out more Summer time shades.

BECCA X Barbie Ferreira Prismatica Light Essentials Kit

I bought this set because the highlighters are mini and the packaging is purple. I have previously tried Champagne Pop (limited edition bronze glitter packaging) and I decluttered it last year. I remember not really getting the hype around it. I wanted to try the formula again in different shades and what is more perfect than minis for trying something out? The whole BECCA Prismatica Collection is in collaboration with Barbie Ferreira, who I believe is an American Actress/Model. I had never heard of her before and only looked her up for the purpose of this post. There was a Face Palette, Essentials Kit and Cheek Lip Duo Set. I believe the collection has now sold out, but the highlighters are still available as singles in the regular BECCA packaging. ABOUT THE PRODUCT The packaging is sleek, round and compact. The colour of the packaging for this collection is described as prismatic lilac. There is also a mini mirror inside the compact. This set originally retailed for £30.00 and it has...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...

KALEIDOS Futurism VI: Lunar Lavender Palette

This is my second KALEIDOS palette and I bought it from the same Depop seller as last time. I also purchased the Futurism I: Sci-Fi Green and Futurism VII: Sashimi City Palettes, reviews on those will be coming soon. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a long thin rectangle shape and the concept reminds me of a wardrobe. There is a purple, pink and rose gold coral (the reef kind) and cloud theme all over the packaging. It has a magnetic closing and you open up the left side first and then the right side to reveal the circular eyeshadow pans and long thin mirror inside. The outside theme continues to the inside, but the colours are lilac, pink, peach and orange with rose gold. The eyeshadow names come printed on a plastic sheet. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 1.33g eyeshadows/pressed pigments in Matte (M), Duo-Chrome (DC) and Shimmer (S) finishes. · Rich and Velvety Texture · Smo...
