Hello!
Recently I made a cheeky purchase on the MUA website. I picked up the 'Pretty Edgy' palette from the Luxe collection and one of the velvet lip laquers in 'Reckless'.
The laquer is incredibly pigmented but one thing I will say is that it takes ages to get off! I was scrubbing away at my lips trying to get it off, nothing was happening! If you want a long lasting lip product - this is for you!
The actual colour is beautiful and I think i'm in love.
As soon as the palette arrived in the post I couldn't wait to start playing with it! The shadows themselves are very pigmented, as usual for MUA, for the price (the palette was £8) and the packaging makes it feel so much more luxurious. The packaging floats my boat immensely - the gold studs are sophisticated and beautiful and the black means it's easy to keep clean. Lovely!
As I was so excited, I decided to go and create a look straight away!
This is what I came up with:
I fancied something dramatic, with a red lip. I'm not normally one for bright red lips, so a dark vampy one suits me perfectly. I had recently treatd myself to a new rimmel lipstick too - might as well put it to use!
As for the actual look, heres what I used!
♥ Rimmel 'Wake me up' Foundation
♥ Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
♥ MUA brow kit
♥ Maybelline Color Tattoo in 'Metallic Pomegranate' as a base
♥ 'Lace' all over the lid
♥ 'Wrath' in the crease
♥ 'Envy' in the outer V
♥ Loreal Super Liner
♥ Benefit 'they're real' mascara
♥ Rimmel Stay Matte Powder
♥ Sleek Contour Kit
♥ Benefit Rockateur Blush
♥ Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in '128 Starry Eyed'
There you have it! I cannot rave about this palette enough. Even though it is expensive for MUA, it is totally worth it. The actual shadows are huge so they wont run out quickly and the packaging is so much nicer than the regular MUA palettes.
Thanks for reading!♥
