'Undress Me Too' With MUA (Mini Makeup Haul)

I was in Superdrug recently and saw they had a 3 for 2 offer across all MUA products! I love 3 for 2 offers and this brand is so purse friendly that I figured it would be rude not to avail of this fab offer!!! 
Here's what I picked up:
 
 
Mosaic Bronzer / MUA / €3.50
I picked this bronzer up in the colour 'Natural Glow' (shade 1). This was the cheapest of the three products so, with the 3 for 2 offer, I practically got it for free! I love it, the colour isn't overpowering and it has a lovely rosy tint to it which looks great worn both above and below the cheekbones! However, it's definitely not the best bronzer I've used but I would reccomend it for a cheap, cheerful and natural everyday bronzer. 
Pro-Base Fixing Mist / MUA / €6.00
I have never tried anything like this product before, honestly, due to the fact that I find them quite gimmicky! All you have to do is spray it over your finished makeup and it's meant to seal in your look all day long! I have used it but I can't say I noticed any dramatic difference to the longevity of my makeup.
I like the idea of it, but, does it work... The jury is still out on this one!
 
 
'Undress Me Too' Eyeshadow Palette / MUA / €5.00 
The colours in this palette are so beautiful. It is essentially a nude palette, but the gorgeous bronze shimmers can take you from daytime to nighttime in one easy swoop! To my surprise the quality of the individual eyeshadows are fantastic, they apply easily and stay on all day/night!
  
Here I created a simple daytime nude look by placing the lighter glitter bronze at the tear duct and worked outwards using a gradient of darker colours. A sweep of black liner and you're ready for a night on the town!

My favourite product is definitely the 'Undress Me Too' eyeshadow palette, and it's only a fiver!

Have you used these products? 
I'd love to hear your feedback!
Thanks for reading,

New MAC Lippies

Hello lovelies! Hope your all having a fab weekend?!


I'm home a week from my fantastic holiday to Orlando, Florida! Sad to be back but I'm having loads of fun experimenting different looks using all of the cosmetics I bought while I was there!


I wanted to share with you three MAC lipsticks I purchased in America that I absolutely adore! I literally had to drag myself away from the MAC store because they were such a bargain compared to buying them in Ireland / the UK I was afraid I'd buy the lot!


 
 

Left to right: Up The Amp / Crème d'Nude / Girl About Town


My favourite out of the three has to be "Up The Amp" it immediately caught my eye from the lipstick stand, the colour is so unusual and unlike any lip colour I own already.
"Girl About Town" is fabulous, I know a lot of people who wear it and swear by it, so I decided to pick it up for myself.
My least favourite to my surprise is "Crème d'Nude", the only reason being that is it's far to close to my natural skin colour and when I have it on it looks as if I have no lips!!! However in saying that it does look lovely with heavy lip liner outlining the lips or with a lipgloss overlay but unfortunatly I wouldn't wear it on its own. 


Hope you enjoyed my little lippie post,
If you have any questions don't hesitate to comment below,
Have a great day,


Love Laura
