MUA LIPBOOM (created with Alexandra Burke)

Let me start this review by saying that whenever I went into superdrugs I never really gave this brand a look in ( what, i guess its just the snob in me errhmm) I always used to think why is it so darn cheap?! until that is I heard they had a sexy hot ( and yes I'm saying hot like Austin Powers!! yeah baby yeah!)  celebrity on board who goes by the name of Alexandra Burke ( hmmm the power of the celebrity)  so naturally I went on a mad, crazy hunt, for these products....

This is a 4in1 product..meaning you can wear the lipstick alone, wear the gloss with the lipstick in the centre of the mouth, wear the gloss on top of the lipstick all over, or wear the gloss alone.

"At the time I was hunting for these, superdrugs had their 3for2 on all makeup, so yes, I, was more crazier then usual!"

 This is how the product is packaged

 This is what it looks like! fancy huh!

 Matte lipstick & Glitter Gloss

OK, so as you can see from the pictures above, the product is double sided, so one end you have the matte lipstick and the other you have the Lipgloss...the picture directly above, the colours are, from top to bottom, Cheeky,Vibe, It's A Situation..

 "It's A Situation"

Cheeky- is a baby pink, with blue undertones

Vibe- is a (hmmm how to explain this) peachy nude

It's A Situation- is a beautiful purple 

My Verdict

I really like the fact that the product comes double ended, the lipstick side is very creamy, and highly pigmented, that alone is very impressive for such a cheap product, but, I did find myself re-applying a lot, but in saying that, it didn't dry out my lips like some other major brand matte lipsticks. The gloss side of it, I did like the look of it on, but i didn't like the feel of it on, as I am a huge fan of glitter glosses, but I do not like to feel the glitter on my lips, and sadly the glitter bits in this gloss I found way, way, to harsh..so I can't wear this on my whole lip, just the centre..For £3, they are OK, would I buy them again, no...

MUA is a British brand and can be found in most superdrugs, or on line at www.muastore.co.uk there products are very affordable, a few of their products are only £1, right now they are giving away a free nail lacquer with every order...
