Review | MUA Haul - Lipstick, Foundation, Nail Polish + More!

My little haul!


Hello!


So as you probably know, I've recently discovered MUA (Make Up Academy) Cosmetics. I bought three of their items on the 3 for 2 offer last week and i really liked how good quality they were and low price! So i got a little bit carried away when I had money on my bank card... and got quite a big haul from their website. I bought 12 items! I just got really overexcited and i needed new makeup anyway, so now my makeup bag is 95% MUA, and i love it! 








So i decided to purchase some blushers, i bought a blusher with the 3 items i got last week, and i really loved it! But, just my luck, they brought out loads more shades in a different packaging the next day! It didn't have too big of an impact on me, because of their £1 price tag! So i bought 2 of their new blushers, in the shades of Marshmallow and Lolly.

New design packaging!





















I really really really loved them both, i thought they would suit my skin tone and they really do! Marshmallow is a very bright pink and it goes on very bright, but it is easy to tone it down, you just brush a bit off until you get to the right shade of brightness! Lolly is my favourite though, i just feel so nice wearing it. Its like a orange-y coral colour and i really love it! The only problem is it doesn't stay on very long. But in its little pocket size container, it's easy to take around with you! It is one of my new favourites 

I also purchased 2 more lipsticks, to add to my already purchased Shade 2. I decided to get shades 3 and 4, because i really really like pink shades for summer. I think they're really cute and go well with my Lolly Blusher!! (I had NO IDEA you could twist off the end of it and its like a little bit of the lipstick - how cool!) I did a blog post on this lipstick HERE. I really really love Shade 3, it's so bright pink! Shade 4 is used for a day where I'm not feeling the bright colours, it's more of a light pink that doesn't show up as well as the other shades, which is good because sometimes i need a neutral day!

I purchased 3 Nail Polishes; Clear, Bright Coral and Plum Noir. I loved my choices! I've tested them all out and they go on really thick and nice and they dry super fast. For a £1 that is amazinggggg. The Bright Coral one is particularly lovely, it's just so summery and cute! 

Matte Foundation
I decided to buy a foundation, as i always buy really expensive foundations and they're never really any good. So i decided to test this one out. Matte Foundation in Shade 1 - Soft Sand. I really like it because of its creamy thick texture that blends in with your face covering blemishes and giving you a really nice complexion! Really good buy for just £2! 

Fur effect nails
I also purchased the fluffy bobbin fur effect nail fluff. I've had my eye on this for a while, i posted a picture of it on Instagram saying i needed it! I got it! I was very excited about it because it looks so so so cool, i couldn't wait to try it out! But i think i did it wrong, as it didn't really go on too well. But it did still work it was just messy. I don't think i have the patience for it, but I'm going to try again at some point!! :D 
Couldn't do them perfectly!!!


To go alongside my foundation, i bought Shade 1 Powder. Which is a lovely powder which makes you seem like you have a perfect complexion when you don't. It works with the foundation really well and i love wearing it. It was only £1! What an amazing deal! I use it with my £1 poundland brushes, it works amazingly, such a great bargain buy.

Last thing i purchased, was the 3 in 1 contour eyeliner pen. It is brilliant. It works really well and you can do all different angles with it to create all different looks. I LOVE it.

So those are ALL the purchases i made from MUA. I spent £14.45 in total, on the 3 for 2 offer with P&P. Which is amazing, considering i used to buy a foundation and mascara and it went well over that already, and this makeup will last me so long! It's great! Thank you MUA for producing such good quality makeup at such reasonable, budget prices. It really is brilliant.
