MUA Hide & Conceal Cover Up Stick Medium

Friday, 10 February 2012


   
Every time I go into Superdrug the MUA concealer is ALWAYS sold out in Medium and I have been wanting it for ages. Now I don't have crazy bad skin but I do get the odd blemish so I am a sucker for a concealer. This MUA one retails at £1 and probably is the BEST I have ever used. As you know I am a sucker for MUA products and it is the price that seems to draw me in but this product is amazing that I have taken you before and after shots of my chin so you can see the results. 


I seem to have just festered up a cluster of spots on my chin, and the rest of my face is in pretty good condition for some reason. So I thought considering this is probably an area of my skin at it's worst will it cover them up and also will it last. Wednesday I tried it out, as I was working a 9hour shift and no time to top up my make-up. After four hours, they were slightly more visible then they were when i put on my make up but not as bad and then I topped up on my lunch break and they were fine until the end of my night. 


Here's the results:

What do you think ladies?? I think it is worth £1 right? 

MUA Haul

Wednesday, 4 January 2012


So considering xmas is over and I am pretty skint, but still wanted some new make up bits (despite the masses that I got as xmas presents.) Though at £1 a pop, it isn’t exactly bank breaking for such good quality items from the brand MUA which is sold in the Uk at Superdrug and online. (I’m not sure if there are any other stockists though). I product 4 products they were – Lipstick in shade 8, Blusher shade in shade 4, Mascara in shade 5 & Intense Glitter Eyeliner in Malt Chocolate.





















My favourite item which is the lipstick made me receive many compliments at work today, it looks as though it is a deep red but in fact it comes out a more natural shade which looks great on my complexion and it has little specs of glitter in it which is different to a lot of the lipsticks on the market as they tend to be matte or block colour finish. It also last as well as they next lipstick on the high street – I topped up a couple of times today.




























My least favourite item of the collection is the mascara for the simple fact that I need mascara that lengthens and gives volume to my lashes and this one just darkens my blonde lashes. It gives them a good dark and very natural look but just isn’t for me. If you have great lashes and you just want to give them some definition this is the perfect mascara for you. Or if you want to look as though you aren’t wearing any make up.
























The eyeliner is not very glittery like the name would imply however it is a nice shade. I pick up brown as I have tons of black but I think I just prefer black eyeliner on me than brown. The thing that impressed me the most on this was that fact that the lid is a built in sharpener as I am either forever hunting for a sharpener or scratching myself with a blunt pencil. I think I am going to get the black one next time I am in. 





 The next top buy is the blusher; I have been searching high and low for a colour that I adore. I have always been a bronzer girl, but I love the blusher look especially in the winter when your skin is paler than usual. This is well worth the money; the colour is rich and dense. It goes onto the skin smoothly (I put it on with my Lancome contour brush) It stays all day too and you don’t need to put much on the brush to get the full effect from it. Bonus!
