MUA Nectar Shade 16 - Lipstick Review

So today I put this lipstick on, as I've had it a few weeks now but haven't really tried it out.
Today when I glided it on I realised what a gorgeous colour it is, especially for a £1 lipstick so decided it would be great to review it for all of you.

MUA is a bargain beauty brand from Superdrug and most products are priced at just £1, like this lipstick.
I am a fan of their products, although some are really representative of their £1 price tag, others are good in quality and stand up there with lines such as Barry M and Rimmel.

This lipstick is called Nectar and in bullet form it looks like a dark peach colour, however when swatched or put onto the lips it comes out as a sheer orange which feel moisturising and it easily buildable for a more pigmented finish.

Due to the sheerness it has a glossy finish which means you wouldn't need to put lip gloss or balm over the top of the lipstick, though I would ensure that your lips are well moisturised before application as many MUA lipsticks, whether matt or gloss finish tend to cling to any dry patches on your lips.

Overall I think this is a gorgeous summer colour and would look FAB with a tan, thumbs up to MUA for creating another gorgeous lipstick with a small price tag.

Sleek Pout Polish in Peach Perfection

Sleek is a recent new-found love of mine, especially the brow kit which I now swear by for my everyday as well as evening make up, it is just flawless!!
I recently purchased the pout polish as I had heard many things about it from youtube gurus and other blogs I read so thought I would go ahead and buy one myself.

The colour I went for is Peach Perfection 964 and the first thing that I love about this is the size, the wideness ensures that you can proper get your finger into the pot unlike little pots of lip balm such as Carmex or the Body Shop.

As with any lip balm type product, this has a gorgeous vanilla scent which makes me just want to eat it up it smells so good !
The packaging is also well-built as the lid fastens on beautifully with no chance of it coming undone in your make-up bag, which I loooove !

The consistency of the product is smooth and it glides onto the lips easily giving a sheer tint of colour, which is great for when you don't want your lips to look too overdone!
This product is great for conditioning the lips as well as making them look gorgeous!
At £4.95 I would highly recommend this product as it will last a long time due to the little amount you need to get coverage, if you're looking for a more pigmented product however this is not for you.
And I tend to get about 1-2 hours wear out of this before I need to reapply, especially in this cold weather when my lips are a little dryer than usual.

Revlon Pinch Me & More Rimmel Lipstick !

So today after an average day at uni me and my flatmate were bored so decided to take a trip which ended up in me buying more make up products I do not need!!

In addition to yesterday I bought some new lipsticks, Rimmel as usual, I just love the way they smell although I do also love a Barry M lipstick !!

I decided to be brave and buy Coral in Gold 210 which is a lipstick i've always had my eye on but have been nervous to try due to how orangey it looks, however I went for it and I also bought Signature Red 175 which is the perfect everyday red, muted compared to my favourite red of all time Red Hot 168 and i'm also in love with the gorgeous pillarbox red from the £1 Superdrug brand MUA which is gorgeous for a cheaper product.

Here are some swatches of the Rimmel colours! Beautiful aren't they !

I also purchased 3 shades of Revlon's Pinch Me, which is a sheer gel blush. I only tend to wear blusher to contour, apart from pale pinks which I sometimes wear on the apples of my cheeks, so for sheer colours I thought I'd give them a try.
I got them in Peach Afterglow 305, Plum Flushed 315 and Playful Pink 300.
I attempted to swatch them but the colour wouldn't show properly due to them being such a sheer product, but I reckon with a couple of thin layers you could really build up colour.
The only problem I found when I applied the Playful Pink to the apples of my cheeks was that the formula made my foundation run, so I reapplied my powder, and this gave me a lovely finish !!

Now i'm off to paint my toenails in Collection 2000 Hot Looks in Shamless 24, before putting off my uni work for another day, terrible student me !
