Make Up Academy Professional Trio Eyeshadow Blue Babe

I like this eyeshadow trio as it means that you have a complete eye look on one compact.
The first colour you have is the pale blue, (top of the picture) which all over  lid colour.
Next you have the middle colour on the picture above which is a pale shimmery champaign colour, which is ideal for brow bone highlight and inner corner.
Finally You have the navy blue colour, which is also shimmery, which would work well as your crease colour, or lash line.

All three shades are shimmery, and all have nice pigmentation and texture to them.  Overall I do like these shadows, these shades are not the most wearable on me, so I may try the other colours that are available in the future.

                                      Make Up Academy Lipgloss Shade 4
I really like this lip gloss, as it is a nice thickness, as it is not to thick, also I really like the colour, which is a dark pink colour with gold undertones, which also is a nice colour over a nude lipstick as well it is very pigmented and looks lovely on different skin tones.
Finally I think it is a great product for the price as well, as it has very good staying power as well.

Review: MUA Nail Quake nail polish

Hi
Today I am going to be reviewing the MUA Nail Quake Nail polish, which is a crackle nail polish, in Broken Arrow, which is a dark purple colour.
                                      Make Up Academy Prof Nail Quake Nail Polish Broken Arrow
I really like this crackle polish, as it is a colour that Barry M or W7, has not yet brought out in crackle form.  Also I really Like the brush as it is thinner than the Barry M and W7 polishes that I have tried meaning that you can get to the edge of you nail easily, and less of the polish goes onto you finger- Less to tidy up!
This Polish costs £2.99 and is available from selected Superdrug stores that stock MUA, and online:
http://www.superdrug.com/make-up-academy/make-up-academy-prof-nail-quake-nail-polish-broken-arrow/invt/276760/&bklist=
I have this polish over No7's Beanie
, which is my previous nail of the day which you can see here on its own:
With the Crackle 

Overall I really like this polish, and think it leaves a nice effect over the darker polish, which is less noticeable, but it is also nice over lighter nail varnishes and leaves a more dramatic effect.
