MUA Love Hearts Polish: U R FAB

Hello!

Next up in the Love Hearts series is.... U R FAB

*All photos taken in natural daylight*
 
 



 
 
 
 
U R FAB is a dusty raspberry-purple rose creme. This was opaque with 1 coat on some nails, 2 on others. I found this polish was less streaky than the previous colour, I WANT U
And I think it's because it had a slightly better brush.
 
I think this may be my favourite from the collection. And although I get a kind of summery vibe from the collection, this polish definitely screams Autumn!
 
 
Size:
6.8mL for £2 (S$4)
 
 
Availability:
Superdrug and MUA official website, here
 
 
 

Thanks for reading!

MUA Love Hearts Polish: I WANT U....to be less streaky!

Hello!

So the first polish that I am going to be talking about is I WANT U.

*All photos taken in natural daylight*








I WANT U is a bright, tangelo creme. This was 3 coats on some nails, 4 on others. I actually love orange polishes and this one is no exception.

Except the one MAJOR downfall! The brushes on all of these polishes are terrible. They are short and have plastic fibres which drag the polish making it streaky no matter what I try.

The formula is nice, with a better brush I would probably only have needed 2-3 coats for it to become opaque. The polish dried pretty quickly.

I've decided to just empty an old nail polish and just use that brush whenever I want to use these polishes because this brush is seriously unmanageable! Maybe that's just my particular ones but then again, ALL of the other brushes are the same. But I mean, it only cost £2 (S$4), so I didn't except it to have a perfect manufactured brush!

Size:
6.8mL for £2 (S$4)

Availability:
I ordered mine from Superdrug. (Sent to my nan's house, my dad was in England for work so he picked it up hehe!) You can find them on the MUA website also.

Thanks for reading!


*If you have these polishes, have you experienced the same problem with the brushes? Let me know down below :D*

Love Hearts Weekend!

Hello!

Over this weekend I am going to be posting my reviews of the MUA Love Hearts nail polishes. I have 5 of the 6 polishes in the collection, since one was out of stock when I ordered from Superdrug. (I don't have U & I, the pastel yellow polish).

Love Hearts are a sweet in the UK, well I don't know if they sell them anywhere else in the world but they don't sell them here in Singapore. Let me know if they sell them in your country!

Anyway yeah, they are a hard circular sweet with a heart and a phrase etched into it. You don't know what phrase you're gonna get on each sweet so that's half the fun of eating love hearts! They also taste kind of fizzy.

Each of the MUA polishes are named after a different phrase. On the MUA website, the description of this collection says it is limited edition, but I only ordered them mid August and they are still available now, so I'm sure you can still find them.

The polishes retail for £2 (S$4) for 6.8mL.

There are also tinted lip balms in the range but I didn't bother getting them.
