Viva View: MUA Lipsticks Review

Since I only posted a tag before, I thought I'd add a little more, so here's a review for the MUA Lipsticks. MUA is a range at Superdrug, and all their products are just £1. They now have a new MUA Pro range which are a little more than £1, but the classic MUA products are still that price. So all these lipsticks were just £1 each!

This is a hot pink in shade 3. It's an incredibly vibrant colour and if you apply it, blot, then reapply, it lasts for hours!

This is in shade 4, and the lipstick is a bubblegum pink, but unfortunately it doesn't come out quite as boldly. It gives your lips more of a pale sheen, which was a little disappointing, but it does still colour your lips nicely.

This lipstick is in the shade 11, and is a beige-y brown colour. This is so beautiful for autumn/winter, and it is a really lovely colour. It can also be built up from a pale nude to a very deep brown, which means everyone can find their perfect shade!

Finally this is shade 12, and it is a coral-y pink with glitter. The texture of this lipstick is much rougher, and the lipstick itself is very hard and can be a little drying. It doesn't apply as nicely as the others, but it is a fairly nice, light shade of pink which, for £1, is worth it!


So, in conclusion what do I think? For me, I don't think these lipsticks are something to swear by, however I do like that you could try a very bold, maybe slightly scary, colour for a while, see how you like it and then upgrade to maybe a Rimmel or Barry M dupe. Also, I think that these lipsticks are a great starter if you don't have much money to spend on makeup.

Finally, the shade 3 hot pink is truly beautiful, so I think that these lipsticks have the potential to be wonderful, and maybe i just picked some rubbish shades. So, due to this I'm going to give them an overall rating of...

7/10 :D 


I hope you enjoyed this, if you've used MUA lipsticks tell me your opinions and favourite shades!

Stay beautiful girls,
