Review! Make Up Academy Eye shadow Trio in Passion

Hey everybody!!

Today I will be bringing you a review on one of my favourite eye shadow trios, MUA Eye Shadow Trio in Passion!


This pretty purple offering from MUA has got me through some busy mornings where I only had five minutes left before I had to leave to catch the bus and wanted some colour on my eyes!

It's a trio of three colours, a pearly white shade, a lilac shade and a darker purple shade, perfect for base, lid colour and crease respectively! It is just so insanely easy to use, but it does have a mini diagram on the back showing you!! I pop the white colour all over, making sure I get under my brows as a highlight, then the lilac all over the lid and finishing with the darker purple colour in the crease!



This lovely little palette of happiness helps me in the mornings create a pretty and feminine look in no time flat and is portable enough to slip in to your hand bag! It does come with the little sponge applicators, which I like to use, but you can easily use your fingers or a brush.

The pigmentation, as you can see on my arm above, is darn good for a little product that only costs £2.50 and I think I may have to buy the entire collection as they are just so useful!! The colours blend well and have a shimmer to them, which is perfect for me as I love shimmery glittery shades!

Excuse the bad photo >_<
I think next I will buy the bronze one as now it is Autumn here and bronze shades are needed!! 

Have you tried any MUA products? Did you like them?

STAY BEAUTIFUL

FOTD ~ A bit of October Gold



Hey guys!! In case you hadn't seen, I dip dyed my hair! Here is a quick pic, for some reason one side of my hair came out wavier than the other!! Grrrrr! But you can see the pink so it's all good (^_^)/

Just a quick face of the day post, cause I put full make up on today rather than just mascara, eye shadow/liner and lip stuff!

Close up of my face
Not sure what colour my actual eyes look here...sea blue haha!
Went for a shimmer gold/bronze type look today!
Messy lipstick, opps (>_<)
Products I used:
S Color Pink Concealer under my eye area
LUSH Jackie Oates Colour Supplement all over
S Color Translucent loose mineral powder
S Color Highlighter
VIVO Baked Blush in Peaches and Cream
S Color Blonde Brow Pencil
Urban Decay eyeshadow in Virgin (base) and Smog (crease)
MUA eyeshadow in Shade 29 - Pearl (all over)
Avon Super Full mascara
MUA eye pencil in Snow White in corners of eyes
Fabulous Kohl Eye Pencil by Barry M
Rimmel London Colour Show Off Lipstick in Love Me

I will do a FOTD tomorrow and you will see how much I normal put on, which is a lot less than this haha! This is more of a night out list, but I was bored this morning and had time to kill (~_~)

How much make up do you usually wear?

STAY BEAUTIFUL

Mini Haul! MUA Post!

Hey guys! Just a quick mini haul, as the postman delivered my MUA goodies today :D


I took advantage of the offer that MUA were doing where you could buy two of their Eyeshadow Trios for £4 (RRP £2.50) and you get a nail crackle free! I went for the Broken Arrow nail crackle and Eden and Blue Babe for the Trios, as I already have Passion and I am always super impressed with it!

Eden
Eden is a lovely greeny set, with a golden sheen to it

Blue Babe
Blue Babe has some really popping blues on it and the white colour has a gold sheen, where as the blues are more silvery

Broken Arrow
Broken Arrow is a rich purple with a slight shimmer too it, can't wait to try this!

Swatches and reviews will come soon!!

Have you tried any of these?

STAY BEAUTIFUL

Superdrugs Haul! MUA make up!


Hey guys, here is a mini haul post, from when I ordered some goodies off Superdrugs! I fancied a bit of new make up from MUA so I thought I would order some! Now, I have a love of bright colours, so I needed to order the Poptastic palette ;D I also wanted to try their new Lip Booms just to see what they were like! I also ordered a MUA Felt tip liner, to see what they were like for the ole cat flick!

Here is the box, exciting stuff!
 I kinda opened the box before I took a photo, over eagerness haha!

Hello Alexandra!
 I'm not sure if the Simple face wash is a freebie or a mishap...but I kinda forgot to email Superdrugs! I only ever use LUSH facial wash so I am not sure what to do with it...
All my stuff!



A few examples of what the lip booms look like and also some experimenting with the pen! Its very easy to use and produces a lovely line! The lip booms look interesting too, reviews to come!

Have you bought any lovely make up recently? Let me know!

OOTD + FOTD 2/7/12

Just a quick little Outfit and Face of the Day post!

I went out with my friends for a couple of hours down town so I put on something that wasn't totally awful and shimmied on down to town!

Looking at other outfit posts and things like this, I see people put a lot of photos of one outfit up. I, as of yet, can not do this, for reasons unknown to me....ANY WAYS, I DID manage to find a spot in my house that isn't my mirror where I can set up my camera to take pics ;D



I am not too sure where every thing was from D: I think the cardy was from Republic and the shoes and tights are from Primarni! That's all I vaguely remember, sorry!

My make up was a simple affair, as I am lazy with my make up to be fair. I don't do anything fancy. Base, eye shadow, eyeliner, lipstick, done!




Products I used (which is a bit easier to remember ;D ) :
Benefit The Porefessional
Collection 2000 Cover Up Stick
LUSH Jackie Oats Colour Supplement
Rimmel London Pure White Eye Liner
Benefit Eye Bright
MUA Blusher Shade 1
MUA Poptastic Palette
Urban Decay Eyeliner in Zero
MUA Lip Boom Doin' Good

The first 6 things are what I always put on, the rest underneath often vary (but at the moment, not much!)

So that was my outfit and face for yesterday! Todays will come tomorrow, because my life is out of sync, like my brain :P

Evening Look ~ Make Up Class

Hey guys! Some of you might know that I currently am on a course at college doing Beauty Therapy Sciences Level 3, first year! In this course we learn all sorts of salon treatments; manicures, pedicures, massage, eye treatments, waxing and make up! On Fridays, we are doing make up at the moment and this Friday, we practised an evening look. Now, we take turns every lesson, so some lessons I am the model and others, I am the MUA!

This Friday I was the MUA and my lovely friend Alison was my model! I decided to go with a slightly bronze look, building up browns of varying shades and a touch of black in the corners. It's not too out there, but its stand out enough to be evening make up!! On her lips I mixed a coral shade with a sheer pink over the top and a touch of highlighter on her cupids bow.


We have to practise coverage and techniques, so we apply concealer, foundation, shader and highlighter, blusher/bronzer, eye shadow, eye liner (which I used a touch of on the outer corners), mascara, eye brow pencil and lipstick. Applying make up on some one else is harder than it looks, but I think I did well with this look and its fun doing it!! Next week some one else is working on me, so you will get a photo of my face and what ever she does to it, haha ;)

The kit we uses is a college kit; S Colour Salon System

What do you guys think of my make up look and have you ever applied make up to any one else? How did you find it?

*Late* Halloween Post!

Happy late Halloween every one!! On the 30th I attended a Halloween pub quiz and decided to do a bit of creepy make up!! I went as a creepy living doll!

Creepy smile bwuahahaha
I had so much fun with this and I think I will be doing more make up looks for holidays in the future :D I took this one from a tutorial my friend did and add my own kick too it!!
Dead pan
I loved staring at my cousin at the quiz like this, it freaked her out and she threatened violence on me :D
Crawling out from under your bed like this
I freaked out a few of my friends too on facebook, which was funny :D I need to pop these photos on my KittyBonkers facebook pages!! All of them will be on there after this post :D

Free head accessory
If you are lucky like me, sometimes people drop things at my work and they never come back for them! At the end of the day, they are up for grabs (if they are something like this or the Hello Kitty rubbers I got too) and I managed to bagsie this, perfect for this look!

I also bought a hat scarf Sunday too, as my friend had one and I immediately fell in love! It is going to be perfect for when the weather starts getting cold (at the moment its only like 16 degrees out, not even hat weather!)


This was also the first time I wore false eyelashes and it was a weird experience!! I got used to it after a couple of hours, but pulling them off again was weird too!! Here are some funny half half and bare faced looks haha, the aftermath!

What a mess, haha!! So ladies, what did you get up to over the Halloween weekend and did you dress up as anything? Do you enjoy Halloween?

On the Cheap: Make Up Academy

Hello my lovelies! How are you all? Sorry its a day late, but here is this weeks 'On the Cheap' blog post!!

Today I will be talking about cheap make up, and my favourite brand of drug store make up, MUA!! You might remember I did a blog about their lipsticks a couple of weeks ago.

Now, when you are short of money, you still want to look beautiful, right? Here is where MUA step in! Each one of these lipsticks only cost £1 EACH!! They have two ranges, a £1 range with a lovely range of items, and a Pro range, where they are priced higher, but everything is cheaper than £5!!

From the £1 range you can pick up:
Eye dusts
Liquid Eye Liner
Face Powder
Blusher
Nail Polish
Mascara
Glitter Eye Liner

Eye shadow

Lipgloss
Lipgloss Tube
And of course the lipsticks!!
All of the above products are only £1 each!! And they all come with a great range of colours and shades, as you can tell by the lipsticks! MUA is brilliant if you want lovely cheap make up, and can be bought on the superdrugs website!

There are other cheap make up brands too that you can check out, like ELF, which I haven't tried personally, but I have heard great reviews about!!

So remember, check your drug stores for that cheap make up brand and give it a try, you just might be very impressed!!
