MUA Cosmetics Haul - Part 2

Well hello there my loves!!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  Here is Part 2 of my MUA Cosmetics Haul...FINALLY!!!  I know, it has been awhile since my MUA Haul Part 1, but between the extended internationally shipping and the fact that I haven't had the time to do a detailed, photo heavy review, I fell behind a little bit, and I apologize.  So lets jump into my MUA Cosmetics Haul - Part 2!  ENJOY!!!

MUA Pretty Pastel Palette



Top Row from the Left

Bottom Row from the Right

As I mentioned in my first review, I really enjoy the MUA palettes.  They are very pigmented and have a wonderful quality, especially for the price.  I thought the twelve pastel colored shades in this palette are super pretty, but I think in the end, I prefer matte pastels.  I don't wear pastel colors much at all, but I think that when I do, I would have to say I prefer matte.  It certainly does not take away from the palette, it is just my preference.  I do not regret buying this palette, and think that it is perfect for the Springtime. PRICE: £4.00

RATING: 4/5

MUA Dusk til Dawn Palette



Top Row from the Left

Bottom Row from the Right

This palette is definitely more up my alley. This product contains 12 gorgeous, highly pigmented, shimmery shades that are much more strong and packs a punch!  I am into smokier looks, and the possibilities with this palette are endless.  I just love how versatile it is, as I can create dramatic looks and more natural looks.  Plus, that teal and dark blue shades are to die for! PRICE: £4.00
RATING: 5/5
I'm sorry, but I don't think I am so crazy about this lip liner.  The color is really pretty, but I am not into lip liners that have a shimmer. I didn't find that it applied as smoothly as I would have liked, and sort of made my lips feel dry.  I thought that the built in sharpener was going to be fantastic and convenient, but it is actually quite messy.  Once I sharpened it, all of the left over shavings got onto the pencil and made the product smudge under the cap. PRICE: £1.00
RATING: 1/5 (sorry...I hate being so negative!)
MUA Lipsticks in Nectar (Shade 16) & Shade 2

Left: Nectar (Shade 16) / Right: Shade 2

 Top: Nectar (Shade 16) / Bottom: Shade 2
I mentioned in my first review that I love the MUA lipsticks, and my opinion hasn't changed.  Again, these lipsticks are extremely creamy, long lasting, and the colors are absolutely gorgeous!  I can't really say much about them, except that I love them and I'm a huge fan! PRICE: £1.00
RATING: 5/5
 
MUA Lip Gloss in Pin Up Pink & Nude

Left: Pin Up Pink / Right: Nude

Top: Pin Up Pink / Bottom: Nude
 
I couldn't resist, I had to buy a few more MUA lip glosses.  I stated in Part 1, that I didn't feel it was long lasting, but I just love the colors and the sweet cake scent!  It certainly makes my lips feel extremely moisturized and I just think they rock!  The nude shade that I got, has to be one of the best nude glosses I have ever bought!  PRICE: £1.00
RATING: 4.5/5
Ohh and how I <3 u too!!!  This collection of nail polishes is simply adorable!  There are 6 beautiful, bright, pastel colored shades that are perfect for Spring!  Does that stop me from wearing it in the Winter?  It most certainly does not.  This shade that I got is absolutely gorgeous!  Its a pinky nude shade that is so feminine and perfect for when I want to tone my nails down a little bit.  I have nothing but good things to say about MUA nail polishes, as I believe they apply beautifully and are long lasting. PRICE: £2.00
RATING: 5/5
I have been having a difficult time finding a black nail polish that applies dark and does not streak.  This polish is really great, but I still do not think it packs the true black punch that I am looking for.  For £1.00, I am certainly not complaining, but it was a tad streaky (could have been my base coat) and it didn't go on as smooth as my last polish.  I am a big fan of these nail polishes because think that the quality is great for the price. I think I am just really picky with finding the perfect black nail polish! I do not regret getting this polish, as I believe you can never have too many fab black nail polishes!  PRICE: £1.00
RATING: 3.5/5
There you have it!  I think I was a bit more excited about my first haul, but I think that is because it was all new to me.  This time around, I just got more of the products that I enjoyed, but in different colors.  I am still a huge MUA Cosmetics fan, and I applaud their reasonable, fantastic quality products, and wonderful customer service!  I am forever a fan!

  12. Oh la la The dusk till dawn palette looks amazing, very nice array of colours and the black nail polish, I mean it's really black and shiny!!!
    If you really like matte pastels the Lime Crime Palette D’Antoinette has 4 out of 5 shadows that are matte and super pigmented or there's the Milani Impressionist palette but I don't remember if that one was a limited edition. Great haul hun, hope you enjoy all your goodies ^^ xx
