I can really imagine my friends faces when this post gets shared automatically onto my Facebook. One Direction Jessica, are you serious? It will be followed by a mass of questions as to why I like the band - which I don't really (only the odd song) and then suddenly someone will declare their love too and think I'm some kind of die hard. When I walked into Superdrug yesterday, I was searching for a bright blusher and a new lipstick. At the moment, I'm on a tight budget so I headed over to the place I knew I could get high quality makeup for a very affordable price - MUA.
I've been looking around for the last two weeks for affordable, good quality blushers and I came across this. The What Makes You Beautiful cheek tint is highly pigmented, in the perfect shade of pink for my skin tone and was 2 for £5 when I bought the One Direction lipstick. The packaging is quite pretty, although it does like ever so 'teenageish' and I'm probably a little bit too old, but it makes a cute item for my makeup case. When I have a little bit more money, I'm very tempted to go and buy a few more products.
When I was looking for products to buy, the first one that really caught my attention was the Kiss You lipstick in the shade 'I Wish' designed by Zayn. Bright lipsticks have always been my thing, I'm a little bit too obsessed with wearing them and I also have a slight obsession with collecting lipsticks from MUA. Combining the two, I knew I had to buy this.
This lipstick is for the bubble gum pink, girly lovers out there. It is lovely to wear, has quite a nice fragrance and applies really well. In fact, I don't think it smudged whilst I was wearing it and it definitely lasted a good few hours.
The lipstick itself is beautiful embossed with a naughts and crosses style pattern and the container is embedded with Zayn's signature, very similar to when MAC bring out collections. The container may feel cheap ( but what do you expect for paying £3?) but the product itself rivals some of biggest contenders in the lipstick market. In fact, I like this more than one of my MAC pink lipsticks.
Have you tried any of the One Direction MUA collection?
I have one of the lipsticks (can't remember which, but a reddy one) and one of the cheek tints and I think they're both fantastic!
ReplyDeleteage is a state of mind ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have one of their lipsticks, the one by Liam I think it is but forget the name. I actually really like it :)

You know what else is good which I was really surprised by: Little Mix's Collection Range!! It's surprising that when I was younger celeb endorsed make up was usually cheap and nasty but now it's really good xx
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has the full collection of the 1D make up....She's a huge fan....lol
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the price it's so cheap but really good!! x
It seems celeb endorsed makeup is really picking up and quality is a lot better than it used to be. Lovely colors I wouldn't have thought to pick up 1D but now I just might. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've not tried any MUA products but I do keep hearing good things about them
ReplyDeleteThe blush looks great! I would´t mind wearing 1D as long as the quality is right. No one ever said "This lipsticks looks like 1D shade"
