MUA Sweet Sheen Lip Balms


Hey guys.. today I thought I would share with you my opinions of the MUA Sweet Sheen Lip Balms aka tinted lip balm that I got from my MUA order the other week.

As you may have seen from my post about the whipped velvet lips I was left slightly disappointed. However these I am definitely happy with. There is currently six shades to pick from all retailing at £2 each. I picked up three in the shades Pink Lilly (very light tinted pink), Peach Dream (peachy pink) and French Violet (purple shade). But there is also Coral Reef, Rouge Rumba and Cherry Bomb.  

Reasons I like:
Firstly, the price. For £2 you can't really go wrong especially if you've never tried a tinted lip balm before so unsure whether you like them. 
The packaging of these are nice enough. Simple plastic, the lid is stable enough so can go straight in your bag (mine are anyway). 
The product is really nice to apply and has a nice sweet scent. They actually give you a nice tint with a sheen that you can see on your lips, especially French Violet. 

Reasons to dislike:
The tint doesn't last ages but nothing a touch up can't sort out!

Overall, I am really happy with these and think I will wear them quite a lot during spring. They will be nice to wear when I don't want to wear a lipstick but do want some colour on my lips. What do you guys think? Would you buy these?

see you soon, han x

MUA Whipped Velvet Lips

I am such a fan of MUA products so I was super excited to pick up the Whipped Velvet Lips. I don't really know how to describe these as they aren't a lip gloss as they don't give a glossy finish but coverage is similar to a gloss (in my opinion) maybe like a semi finish velvet lip lacquer.

MUA HAUL


MUA/Make up Academy has been a brand that I keep browsing at lately. I've previously talked about a few of their lipsticks and my love for the shade tulip (here). So I thought it was about time I picked up a few more items from the brand.

I first picked up 3 of their new sweet sheer lip balms as I don't really own any tinted lip balms and thought these would be great to start to my future lip tint lip balm collection. I picked up pink lilly, peach dream and french violet. These were all £2 each and you can get these from either Superdrug or MUA.

I next bought their new (well i think they are new) luxe whipped velvet lips in the shades rococo (nude pink), chichi (coral/orange) and hedonic (baby pink). These are £3 pound each and again can be bought in either Superdrug or MUA.

Last but not least I picked up one of their new whipped velvet blushers in the shade spry which costs £3 and currently stocked in both Superdrug and MUA online. 

First impressions of these I'm really happy I bought them all. I bought them off Superdrug as you get free delivery over £10 and they came within 3 days. I really want to do some reviews on these, let me know if you like the sound of that..

see you soon, han x

MUA Lipsticks: Lilac Belle, Pouty Pink & Tulip




who doesn't love a £1 lipstick?? 
A few weeks ago now I bought these 3 lipsticks from MUA including 2 matte shades from Superdrug.  They are £1 each if you hadn't of guessed and I got them on 3 for 2. I had been wanting to get a lilac shade so I couldn't resist picking up two more when I was in store.
