MUA Top Tips!:

My Views on MUA Lipsticks  ( shades 6,7,10,13 and 16 )  :

Some shades are well pigmented,some shades are sheer..But for one pound i cant complain as most of the shades are very well pigmented.

The staying power is max 2 hours..but lip liner underneath helps you !!  the shades like 13 are well pigmented and leaves a stain behind !! 

Shade 13 a matte red colour

Shade 7 and 6 almost look similar on my lips..shade 6 is more sheer

Shade 16 Nectar is a neon shade

Review & swatch : MUA Lipboom Bring it !!

hello beautiful ladies...how r u all? love is in the air..i feel ..do you?????????

Any ways as there is valentines day around i want to introduce you all a beautiful matte red lippie...perfect for dinner with your beloved !!Its none other than from our budget brand MakeUpAcademy (MUA)

Here are the four ways of applying lip boom 

 Lipstick and highlighting gloss that creates fuller curvaceous lips or a dramatic illusion of volume. There are 4 amazing ways to transform your lips and give them some Boom!

1. Lipstick alone for a matte look.
2. Lipstick with highlighter applied just to the centre of your lips to create a full volume illusion. 
3. Lipstick with highlighter all over for a super-glossy look. 
4. Highlighter alone for a sheer pearl finish.

There are 8 amazing shades in the range

Price : £3.00

 Packaging : 

i like the packaging...its something interesting than regular lippies..i love that !!

My experience :

I like to wear bright shades for evening..this is matte red lipstick with absolutely no shimmer in that.and the gloss with fine gold shimmers.

i apply lip balm before apply any lipstick as i have extremely dry lips.it stays for one-two hours on me after that it fades leaving a tint...and it transfers easily..:(
