New MUA Blushers

Hullo Ladies!

MUA have released a few new blushes,  have re-designed the packaging and have also given them names instead of numbers. Like they did with the cream blushers they brought out not too long ago. 


These new blushes are slimmer and open differently. They're easier to open and make a satisfying sound when they are closed so you know that it's fixed tight. 

Even though they are slimmer they still hold the same amount of product as the original blushes. 


They have a mixture of different finishes, some are matte and some are shimmery. 

They're bright, colourful and are very soft to the touch. 

Lie the original blushers they are intensely pigmented and have great lasting power. 


The shades I choose are : Lolly a peachy coral colour, Bon Bon a stunning muted pink and Bubble Gun a bright pop of pink. 


From Left to Right : Lolly, Bon Bon and Bubble Gum.

I'm in love with these, they're very pretty, are great quality and I prefer the colour range of the new line to the old one. 

These blushes are £1 each and are included in Superdrugs 3 for 2 sale at the moment. I picked up these three for just £2 :-) 

I'd definitely suggest picking them up, I'll be buying the rest of them soon! 


Have you tried these new MUA blushers?

Which is your favourite?

REVIEW - Dainty Doll Blusher - Money Talks


Hullo Ladies!

I hauled some Dainty Doll products a few days ago and I've been trying them out for you so I can write up some new reviews :-) 



Dainty Doll Is a brand that was created by Nicola Roberts.....in other words the pale one from Girls Aloud!

I grew up watching these girls become the band they are today and in the beginning I always thought Nicola was the prettiest, I loved her hair and how pale she was...then something horrific happened. Someone important didn't agree with having such a pale girl in the band and Nicola was told to wear fake tan.

I think the photos above show just how important it can mean to embrace your natural skin colour. 

I never really understood the reason why so many girls go to, sometimes, extreme measures to change the colour of their skin. 

It doesn't help that make up brands have been neglecting certain skin tones for years, those of us that are very pale and those that are very dark. For some reason they apparently believe we should all just be some colour in between. 

Like many of us, Nicola Robert's disagreed with this idea and brought out a brand of make up that suited her and a whole lot of neglected faces! 



Money Talks is a subtle bronze/taupe colour that gives me a gorgeous glow. 

It's very pigmented so I make sure to be light handed with my brush.

I've never worn a Bronzer that I haven't immediately wiped of my face so I was pleasantly surprised with this product.

One thing I noticed very quickly about this powder was how soft and finely milled it was. It's very high quality and worth the £13.50. Although you can get them much cheaper from some places. I know that Boot's sometimes have the brand on sale. 

I'm having a lot of fun trying out the Dainty Doll products I've bought and will be reviewing the others soon! 

Have you tired this brand before?
