MUA Haul

If there is one brand that is affordable and good quality it's MUA. They have a nice little range of things so I went to Superdrug the other day and picked up a few of their things. I got 3 lipsticks,1 of which is matte, 1 blush and a nail polish.


These are the lipsticks that I got, I had never actually tried MUA lipsticks before today. They're very soft and easy to glide onto the lips, although you have to work a bit harder with the matte one. They're very pigmented as soon as they're on the lips, can't go wrong for £1 each?! Juicy & Peachy Keen are both coral colours which are both gorgeous while Tulip is more pink. My favourite is Juicy.


I then got a blush which was also just £1 which is an amazing price for a blush. It is a pretty pink blush with just a little bit of sparkle. I haven't actually tried this yet but I am so excited to. This blush is in the shade Bubblegum, I have heard raving reviews on this blush especially!


I then thought I'll get a nail polish, if I am totally honest, I was not expecting much from their nail polishes. I am totally a Barry M girl when it comes to polishes but when I saw the colour I just had to get it. This was also just £1! I picked a gorgeous coral colour in the shade Sweet Peach, again, I haven't tried this yet but it looks like a beautiful summer colour so will be using it very soon!

November Favourites

Hello everyone! So it's currently the 6th of December and I'm only just doing my November favourites, sorry! Here are my favourites below in the photo :)



So my first favourite is the L'oreal True Match foundation, mine is in the shade rose ivory which i believe is the palest shade? Anyways, this is such a great foundation! So many people have raved about this foundation on blogs and youtube so I thought I'd pick it up and give it a go. I'm really impressed with this, it's a medium coverage so you can build it up for a full coverage or go lighter for a more natural coverage, it's a bit runny though which makes it great so it's easy to blend! It retails for £9.99, obviously you can get cheaper drugstore foundations but I definitely think it's worth the price of it. They have SO many different shades so I think there would be a shade for every skin colour/type! Overall, I've really loved this foundation and when I run out, I plan to get another one. :)

Next is my MUA eyebrow pencil in the shade blonde, this was only £1! As if!? For that much I had to buy it and I've been loving it! It's the perfect shade for me and matches my hair so well. It's really soft for a pencil so it doesn't give harsh lines and I hardly have to press down for the product to work. I think MUA is a very underrated brand and I'd definitely buy this pencil again.

Okay next is LUSH! I just want to say how much I love Lush it's honestly one of my fave things ever. So when I saw that this limited edition lip scrub was out I had to get it! I haven't been let down! It smells and tastes like cola bottles which is amazing because who doesn't like cola bottles? This product always leaves my lips feeling super soft, I use it everyday mainly before I go to bed. It is a cute tiny pot but it lasts for ages because you only need to use the smallest bit! I'm so sad that this is limited edition just for Christmas time though!

My Bourjois blush has always been my absolutely fave but this month I really have genuinely loved it. During Autumn/Winter I don't like to go overboard with blush and contouring but I think this colour is perfect for this time of year. It's in the shade Rose Ambre which to me is a more coral shade than pink which I personally prefer. It gives such a pretty glow and colour to the cheeks. It's also really small which is great for travelling. 

My last favourites are 3 Barry M Gelly Nail Polishes in the shades from left to right(in the photo), Plum, Watermelon and Blackberry. I think these shades are great for this time of the year. I actually won these from Barry M in a competition. The Gelly ones are my fave because the give such a nice shine to your nails because sometimes I feel like dark colours look awful on my nails but the more shine it has the better it looks.

I hope that you enjoyed this post :)
