SOAP et le MUA Haul


MUA recently held a very short promotion in celebration of reaching 35,000 likes on their facebook page. The promotion was 35% off everything (for about 6 hours!) on their website plus free shipping. I've wanted to buy their Heaven and Earth eyeshadow palette for ages so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to pick it up! The minimum spend was £10, so I filled my basket with products that cost exactly £10 altogether and spent a total of £6.50!
PS - excuse the crap quality of the photos, I had to use my iPhone camera.





The first 2 things I chose were 2 lipsticks in shade 10 (left) and shade 13 (right). Shade 10 is a nice dark, browny red with very subtle shimmer in it. I thought it was going to be more of a plum colour but nonetheless I really like the colour. It's also quite sheer which makes it easy to wear during the day time.
Shade 13, on the other hand, is a very creamy bright red lipstick. I wouldn't have bought this lipstick if it wasn't for the sale and I probably won't wear it until it starts getting warmer again but I'm glad I bought it. I wore it round the house when it arrived today and really like how it looks on me!


I also bought a lipliner in brooding plum. I love plum lip products at the moment, my favourite one being the Kate Moss Rimmel Matte Lipstick in 107, and I thought this lipliner would go perfectly with it. The lipliner is really creamy and I'm really looking forward to trying it out.


I also bought this gold glitter liquid eyeliner. I'm really excited to use this over Christmas! Its gold glitter in a clear eyeliner gel. It's packed full of glitter so it shouldn't be too patchy on the eye lid. I am a sucker for a sparkly party eye!


The one product which I might be disappointed in is this concealer. My concealer finished and I haven't bothered to buy a new one, so I decided to try one of the MUA ones. The colour is 'Radiance'. I'm not too sure what to think of it yet, I haven't tried it on my face. When I tried it on my arm it came out really thick and the colour was a bit wrong against my skin tone. Not going to say too much else as I haven't properly tried it yet!


Finally, the Heaven and Earth eyeshadow palette. I haven't swatched it as everyone and their dog has swatched this on the internet. The colours are gorgeous and I can't wait to try them all!


Did you buy anything in the MUA 35% off promotion?
