£20 Makeup Challenge!

I seen loads of videos on youtube of beauty guru's doing the £20 Makeup Challenge. And after reading Sharna's ( link ) post on the £20 Makeup Challenge, I thought It would be real fun to do it myself. Mixing it up abit from the regular reviews, hauls, favourites ect.ect.

So these are the products I choose...

Total = £19.18

MUA Pro BB Cream, Light £4 - It covers up imperfections really well, and leaves a dewy, sheer, finish. It lasts all day, the formula is quite thick. But looks fine once blended into the skin.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer, Fair £4.19 - Easily the best concealer I've ever tried! The formula is also thick, but its really easy to blend. And leaves medium to full coverage. It lasts longer then the 16 hour promise, and doesn't crease.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Powder, Fair £2.99 - Sets liquid makeup really well, and doesn't make you look too powdery leaving a natural, Matt finish. It doesn't really last 16 hours, I would say more 4-5 hours.

MUA Pro Eye Primer, £2.50 - I've reviewed this in the past due to its amazing quality! It keeps eyeshadow and eyeliner in place all day, and the eye makeup doesn't fade away or crease either. For the price its a shocker, which i will continue to repurchase!

MUA Mascara, Shade 5 £1 - Lengthens, separates and adds a black coat of mascara to your lashes. As well as adding minimum volume perfect for the everyday look. Does flake slightly, but for the price its perfect!

MUA Pro 3 in 1 Contour Eye Pen, Sage £1.50 - As some of you may know, I'm a sucker for bright eye shades like green, blue and purple. This eye pen is a bright green shade, it lasts all day over eye shadow primer. It doesn't crease or fade away and you get a fair amount for the price.

MUA Intense Colour Eye Pencil, Snow White £1 - I cannot live without this eyeliner! I use it everyday on my waterline, it glides on creamy and pigmented. It lasts all day, and doesn't smudge, fade or crease.

MUA Love Heart's Range Lip Balm, Great Lips £2 - Whenever I go for bright eyes, I tend to add a hint of lip balm. Usually a nude colour. This is my go to lip balm! Its a nude/peachy colour, which is extremely moisturising and lasts about 2 hours. Its smells divine! Like a sweet, vanilla sent which I love!

NOTW: Bow Nails with Rhinestones

Hey Guys, my aim this week is to do a different post each day of the week as I don't really blog frequently enough in my opinion.

Anyways I just finished doing my nails about 30 minutes ago and thought I'd show you guys what I did.

This week, I decided to do Bow nails after getting inspired by a picture on google. Except I decided to add rhinestones into the centre of my bows just to jazz things up a bit. I used all MUA nail polishes for this design, except from my base coat and topcoat.

Products I used....

• Sally Hansen Double Duty Base coat & Topcoat
• Sally Hansen Insta-dri Anti Chip Topcoat
• MUA Love Hearts Range I <3 U
• MUA Love Heart Range U R FAB 
• MUA Shade 12

 I really liked how this design turned out, MUA polishes are great for working with, they dry super fast and are opaque within a few coats. They are also really inexpensive so you can afford to by loads!

Review: MUA Love Hearts Range Lip Balm's

Since I haven't posted much , and for me its now the Easter school holidays. I'm going to try and post every single day , maybe one or more posts so hit the "Follow" Button for more reviews , tutorials, hauls and more! :)

Today I'm going to be reviewing the lip balms , from the MUA love hearts range.MUA and Love heart sweets collaborated and created the "Love Hearts Range" Obviously based around the love hearts sweets. The range consists of 6 Nail Polishes and 5 lip balms.  Each item in the range is £2 each  and available from Supedrug , but you can buy them online on MUA's website. Today I will be reviewing 4 of the lip balms, so lets get on with the review......

The packaging on these is adorable, I just love it!

Great lips - nude , natural , beige colour
Sugar lips- a bright pink
Kiss me- a REALLY bright bold red
Sweet Kiss - a light baby pink 

Left to Right : Kiss Me , Sweet Kiss , Sugar Lips, Great Lips

These amazing lip balms could only be described as Little Gems! There is absolutely nothing bad to say about these lip balms. They are extremely moisturising , they make the perfect base for dry lipstick or even just a base in general. You could even wear them on there own! The colours show up great on the lips, i usually apply these lip balms with a lip brush and the show up really well. Especially "Kiss Me". For £2 your getting a fantastic quality product , adorable packaging and a more then fair amount of product! This product would probably last you ages.

Overall , these lip balms are beyond expectations! I would definitely buy any of these again if i ran out , my personal favourite is probably "Sweet Kiss". I just love the colour of it and how it shows up on my lips. I would definitely recommend these lip balms to anyone who wants a moisturising lip balm with great pigmentation and adorable packaging. The only bad thing is the range is limited edition , but is out through the summer months , i think.

NOTW~ Valentines Day "Love Heart Sweets" Nails

Well this week i tried doing "Love Heart Sweet" nails, simply cause of two reasons.

1. I was entering a nail art contest.
2. I thought it would tag along nice with the recent launch of the new MUA Love Hearts Range.

I used my 4 new polishes i got yesterday , from the love hearts range. And another shade from MUA's £1 range, Yes only one pound :) I also used my Sally Hansen nail strenghner which i also got yesterday, I'll be reviewing it in a few weeks when I've had time to see if it works.
So heres a picture of what it all turned out like.

Thought I'd jazz up the picture with a packet of love hearts ;)

Not my most favourite design ever but It'll do till next Sunday. Any ideas of what i could do on my nails next week ? Or any ideas what i can blog about next?

Thanks for Reading

SuperDrug Haul - INCLUDING New MUA Love Heart Range!!!

As some of you may or may not no MUA have recently collaborated with Love Hearts, to create a limited edition Love Hearts range including 6 polishes and 5 lip balms. For only £2 each! Well today in my local superdrug i was lucky to find the full range so i picked up 4 lip balms and 4 polishes:

Arnt they just so cute?

The lip balms are 10g each! I just couldn't get over it , 10g for £2 they come in a great range of colours and they smell great too! They smell really sweet , but not too sweet that its overwhelming. You cant tell on this photo but the shade "kiss me" is a really bold bright red.

These are the four polishes i got , the shades from left to right are : I want u , U r fab , U Rok , U & I
These actually look like real dupes for the models own polishes.

I also picked up a Barry M lipstick, i won one once in a competition last year it was shade 146 i think , it was a real bright illuminate pink. I love it , but its not really something you could wear everyday. So today i picked up a much less bright pink.

I really love the packaging on these, the only bad thing is if you had more then one you couldn't really tell what shade it is by just looking at it.

I picked up shade 155 , Pretty Pink. Its one of the newest shades according to the website :)

Its like the perfect colour for me.

It shows up real well on the lips and is quite moisturising. Its a slighty lighter pink on the lips.

The next thing i didn't buy in Superdrug. I bought it at this stand that sells reduced makeup , they actually sell quite a variety of brands , max factor , rimmel , wet'n'wild , Saffron ect.ect. They also sell reduced Sally Hansen nail care products , the average price being around £1.99 so not bad at all.

I got this , it claims to stop your nails braking and prevent them from peeling and splitting. Basically its a nail strengthener. I usally would watch reviews before buying Sally Hansen , as lets be honest, its not at all that cheap. But for £1.99 you cant go wrong.

I'll probably be reviewing these products sometime next week , along with swatches of the lip balms and polishes.

Till then , I'll see you later, Thanks for reading :)
