Welcome to our website !
This is just a super quick post to say that on the MUA (Make Up Academy) blog today they announced that you can now buy FashionistA make up on the MUA website and there's currently up to 60% off! As soon as I saw this I ordered a few bits because I'd been interested in buying some FashionistA products for a while, but I'd not got round to it so I thought the best time to try products is when they're on offer!

The blushes are currently on offer for £1.65! I mean, who can say no to that?! They're still extremely affordable at their full price of £4 but £1.65 is a bargain!



Back in February I blogged about the products I bought from the MUA Undress Your Skin collection and overall I am very impressed with the range. I have been using the Undress Your Skin Flawless Skin Primer every single day since I bought it, so I thought it was about time I made a review post about it.





The packaging is plain and simple, but I quite like it, it means I'm not wasting money on unnecessary fancy packaging (although sometimes it is nice!), I like that it has a pump too because it means I can just use one pump for my whole face which means I waste less product.

You get 15ml of product for £5 which is a bargain price since this is a very good primer. However, this may not be a favourite for everyone, since it is a silicone based primer, but for me I have no problems with it, but keep that in mind if you're looking to pick it up. I've been applying this under my MUA Undress Your Skin Illuminating Foundation (which I have reviewed here), and it definitely makes the application of the foundation a lot smoother because my base is smooth, and increases the longevity of it.

I am really loving the new MUA products that have been released recently and I'm sure I'll be re-purchasing this when I've finished it, since I prefer it to my Rimmel Fix and Perfect Primer which was a previous favourite.

What's your favourite primer?




Last week I blogged about the new MUA products I bought. I'm always trying out new foundations since I've not found one that is perfect for me, just yet. However I do absolutely love the new Undress Your Skin Illuminating Foundation, I got mine in the lightest shade which is Porcelain. I was honestly so surprised when this arrived that it's actually pale enough for me to wear, I was risking it slightly by buying a foundation online since I am so pale but this is perfect. It's also only £5 which is an absolute bargain and a lot cheaper than most drugstore foundations.













Before I apply this, I use my MUA Undress Your Skin Flawless Skin Primer so I have a smooth base. To apply this  foundation I use my Real Techniques Buffing Brush from the Core Collection. It's so easy to blend in which I love and it gives me a medium coverage. I have worn this foundation without powder afterwards and with powder, I personally prefer to apply powder afterwards simply because my skin can get a bit oily, but even without the powder it still looked good on my skin. I do agree with the claim that it illuminates your skin, but not over the top it just gives a subtle glow.

I am so impressed with this foundation, I hadn't read any reviews before I bought it but since it was on offer when I purchased it I thought I'd try it out. I'm sure I'll re-purchase this when I finish this tube. That's another thing I was slightly concerned about before it arrived, the fact it's in a tube. I'm so used to having foundations with pumps, but I don't find it being in a tube an issue for me, I almost feel safer with a tube so I know I'm not carrying a glass bottle around in my make up bag that could smash (I can be quite clumsy oops).

All of the products I have tried from the new Undress Your Skin range are wonderful and I'll be doing reviews on the rest of the products in the next few weeks! I think MUA have done really well recently with the new products they've released and they've still kept the products at such affordable prices.

What's your favourite MUA product?

MUA (Make Up Academy) is probably the cheapest brand of make up that I know of, and the products are excellent quality too. There's quite a few products that I really want to buy, but can't afford it right now so I've made a wishlist instead.



Everyone has been raving about BB Cream's for a long time now, but I haven't got round to buying one, mainly because I'm worried it won't give me enough coverage and I have quite bad skin. I didn't want to waste money on one that wouldn't work for me, so I thought the MUA BB Cream would be a good place to start as it's very reasonably priced at £4.


If you've read my recent post about my ELF Eyebrow Kit you will know that I have hit pan and will soon need to buy a new eyebrow kit. I haven't seen many reviews on this, but I'm willing to give it a try and for only £3.50 it isn't a huge investment. 

I put this on my 'wishlist' mainly because it looks pretty, and the previous bronzers MUA have brought out have all been too dark for me. So because this has different shades I'm hoping it'll suit my skin tone more! Once again, extremely cheap at only £3.

I don't have many cream blushes in my collection, I'm sometimes worried that I'll apply too much and look ridiculous, but this blusher isn't quite as bright as my others, so hopefully I'll be able to make it work.
Only £2 as well.

Finally I'm interested in trying out these Nail Constellations in Gemini. I've always wanted to try out this look on my nails, but I've never really got round to doing it, so I think now this is available in the drug store, I'll give it a go once I have money. For only £3 you can't really go wrong either.
