Fashionista from MUA Custom PPQ Palette

I am in such a good mood right now, thought I would do another post. 

As a hobby, spare time kinda thing, I fill out online surveys, and get paid for it, just got £30 amazon voucher plus £15 yesterday, so I have just gone and spent it all, so excited, I love getting post, even better when I didn't spend any money!

So back to the post, when MUA announced they were selling Fashionista products, I had to check it out, I didn't know the brand previously but I was intrigued by the custom palettes. You pick a palette of 4 or 6 and fill it with eyeshadows, blushers and bronzers of your choice.

I think I am too pale for bronzers but I wanted to try one so I picked one which hopefully wont stand out too much.

I chose the PPQ Limited Edition A/W12 palette because it looks like animal print, and I just love animal print. This might be a geeky thing too, but I absolutely love the look of 3 of my choices, they remind me of planets.

I got Blusher - New York, Bronzer - Rome, Eyeshadow - Icey, Eyeshadow - Trendsetter. I have been wearing the blusher and trendsetter eyeshadow since it arrived, I am not confident enough to do a full picture though, I hate taking my own photo! The blusher is just the right shade for me I think.

 Swatches of them, in the order they are on the palette. It's not as good as seeing them on I know, the last eyeshadow looks more purple on, its a purple/grey with more than just a shimmer, little pieces of glitter, I tried to get a close up of it:

It highlights the pieces of glitter, as best as I could.

The custom palette at the moment is 4 shades for £7 or 6 shades for £10. They are a great size, the lid of the palette is also a mirror, a proper sized one too, when I have more money I will definitely invest in more, especially if they bring out any more limited edition packaging.

The palette on its own is £2! and each individual shade is £1.65, so you can replace them once they run out or fancy a change. 

I am converted, and really pleased with this, I think I am definitely going to get more of the mosaic eyeshadow, I just love how they look.

Have you made a custom palette? Link me and I will check it out :D

Fashionista from MUA Nail Polish: Mystical Dragon

 Been a while since I wrote a post, not sure why, just been a bit busy I guess.

I made an order for the new Fashionista products on the MUA website last week, a nail polish and a custom palette, which I shall review another day.

This nail polish just stood out for me. Even on the tiny little display imagine. It reminds me of something Disney.

 Mystical Dragon is so blue! It is one coat layered over Barry M Gelly in Guava, because it was a bit thin so might not be as bright on it own, but I just cant get over how amazing it looks. Its so glittery! Without the pain of having to remove a glitter nail polish. Its lasting really well too, almost a week and its only chipped a little bit at the edge, and I am always busy.

You can get the new Fashionista range online at the MUA Store, the nail polishes cost £3 each.

Next post will be a review of the custom palette I ordered, very impressed!

Have you tried any of the new range yet?
