First sight Saturday - MUA luxe velvet lip lacquers



Today I am reviewing the MUA matte lip glosses. I have seen these around for a while and I have a couple of the sleek ones but found them very drying so wasn't super eager to run out and buy these. My local super drug has an MUA stand but never restocksmso I couldn't buy them even if I wanted to!

Now,hands up who likes a bargain? You'd be crazy not to and so when i looked online and saw they were on 3 for 2 on the official website as well as the fact they have new colours, plus the fact I used the money in my paypal account meaning technically no money came out my bank, I felt like the best human ever. Win or what!?



From left to right: halcyon, tranquility, serene,a flush, atomic, reckless. 
Halcyon is a dusky pink/peach nude. It is noticeable when on the lips but still nothing too vibrant.
Tranquility is a nude shade, similar to my natural lip colour but it makes it even and matte.
Serene is a beautiful blue toned baby pink. I love this colour but feel I will struggle pulling it off.
A flush is your 'barbie pink' shade and the last of the new shades that I purchased.
Atomic is an orange red and will make a great bold lip for date nights or when you want a bold colour to last.
Reckless is probably my favourite of the lot and is quite a dark red which will look great for autumn.

As I first impression, I am very impressed with these lip glosses. For £3 you are on trend, they are really long lasting on the lips. This one I have tried hasn't been drying at all but did take a long time to dry matte (was sticky like norml lip gloss before that). The colour range is quite vast and you really don't feel like you are breaking the bank at all! I feel that these were a very worthy purchase.
