2true

So my local Superdrug has a reduced stand for damaged and nearly out of date stock and today I found the above. A 2true eyeshadow set with one shade broken so when I opened them both up and found they made a set I was very happy lol. Its shade 13 I love golds, browns, coppers and this kinda hits on all of them so for 40p I got £3.90 worth of products :D Yet another fantastic bargain.

Mua Nail varnish and Eyeliner

So I thought I would try somemore MUA products as my store finally got somemore in stock sadly none of the Shades 7 or 12 eyeshadows though they seem so popular.

I got the black eyeliner shade 5 as I swatched it on my hand a few weeks back and actually again today and it takes about 7 hours and many many handwashes to rub off! I have it on my hand right now and its been on since 2.30pm Ive washed my hands about 12 times (I have to at work) and Ive been in the shower and washed my hair and theres still some on my hand so cant wait to try it on my eyes lol.

I also got a nail varnish in shade 10 which is a nice pearly shell colour think mother of pearl. Now I love the shade but I had read on someones blog or seen on youtube I cant remember which that this nail varnish is hard to use! They werent wrong! If you are like me and like to go over and over your varnish til its smooth, dont try it with MUA is seems to congeal! I have tried it on one nail today and its so lumpy Im sure theres a trick to getting it on in one smooth coat but I cant seem do it! As im typing over put on more coat on and its smooth! Im wondering if the heat were having at the moment has something to do with how it dried before? I have now done every nail and Ive decided it was the heat as it seems smooth now! This heat has placed such a problem with my make up these last few weeks lol.

Batiste V's Superdrug!!!

So Superdrug have realeased they're own line of dry shampoo's (Well theres 2 in in the range lol).The names of the scents are rather odd! I decided to try Away with the Fairies! As it seems quite fitting for me :D I have looked online for the other fragrance's name but it's not online yet. Must be a very new product. I thought I would try one out as Batiste is £2.09 in my Superdrug and theyre own is only £1.49 every penny counts remember! its a 60p saving.

Comaprison time!
The Fragance of Away withe the Fairies is floral its actually nicer than Blush by Batiste it's more like a body spray fragrance. Which I find really pleasant. So Ive used Batiste for awhile so Im used to the fact it comes out of the can dry, which is hanndy for a dry shampoo, oddly the Superdrug on comes out wet? Now for a dry shampoo I find that a little odd. In time the alcohol does however evaporate and the talc (its actually rice starch) is left behind.But I have a problem! I use dry shampoo after ive straightened my hair and I am worried if I use it like that the wetness of the spray will take my straight hair back to its natural wave! I havent had a chance to use it like this yet and I did actually have some Batiste in my hair when I tried it initially for this review so it wasnt the best trial. I will however use it again soon especially on my straight hair and let you know the outcome.

Magazine Make up

So the magazines are lousy with freebies this month so I decided to get Glamour magaine for the Benefit It Stick as that was my only choice at my local Tesco their are the 3 available products:
Eye Bright usually £14 (a pinky white eyeliner pencil which instantly brightens eyes), Bad Gal usually £14 (black eye liner pencil) and It stick usually £17 (a concealer pencil for fine lines).
Im now on the hunt for the other two products to try as the it stick is fantastic. Next was More magazine which has a voucher inside for a free Barry M Dazzle Dust worth £4.50 so off to my local Superdrug and got 98 Petrol Black which I love and have wanted for ages! So that was £21.50 worth of make up for 50p because I used £3 of Tesco vouchers so it was a good day for me.
See the swatches below:

More MUA

Here are my new MUA @ Superdrug eyeshadows. Shades 9, 11, 14 and 15 .
9 is a duochrome purple with blues a lovely shade.
11 is a bronze colour would work really well as a holiday colour on tanned skin.
14 is a dark green fades out to a brown.
15 is a black but its almost like a dark silver when its on thick.
I cant stop ranting about these eyeshadows they are fantastic. I was however dissapointed my local store had run out of shade 12 :( as I have heard such good things about it and its even been comapred to a MAC shade that no one else does.

MUA = Make up addiction!

Bought 5 more MUA @ Superdrug products today 4 Eyeshadows and a lipstick. Swatches and colour mixing hopefully going on this weekend. Please leave a message if you visit this blog even just a hello would be nice.
Ta ta for now!

MUA just a taster

So everyone is ranting about the MUA Superdrug make up just like they were with (and I suppose still are) with ELF! I have only bought 2 items from the range as they only had about 6 differnt items in stock when I went. Honestly the stand was only one of the end aisle ones, far too small for something they know is going to sell well! I bought Shade 13 Pearl an iridescent black/purple (left) and Shade 3 pearl a super shiny silver (right) They are sooooo pigmented it is amazing I do plan on buying all the shades apart from the pales and the funny lightish green and purple theyre just not really me. I may make an order online if I get a free delivery code since my nearest stockist is a fair distance from where I live. Check it out:

By the way the swatches do not do the items justice!

PS Not all stores are carrying the range so check this before you head out to buy some:
