for a collection of 4-in- 1 lip products - there is eight different colour ways to collect
and that I shall considering they are only £3 each!
MUA Lip Boom's are duo ended lip products that have a matte lip shade at one end
and a really glittery highlighter come lip top coat at the other end.
They are packaged quite cleverly and are compact enough to travel with.
As with the standard MUA Lipsticks these also have a small pot of lipstick
at the bottom of the lipstick side of the duo.
The highlighter applicator is of your typical doe foot style,
I feel a brush would have worked better with the consistency of the highlighter.
Doin Good features a mid toned pink matte lipstick that is somewhat similar in colour
to Mac's Angel lipstick which is a personal favourite.
Doin Good also has a light almost candy toned pink glitter based lip highlighter.
The glitter top coat/highlighter is something I can't get on board with,
the glitter is too gritty and the base that it is immersed in is difficult to spread evenly.
You can utilize the Lip Boom's in four various ways:
1, The lipstick on it's own.
2, The highlighter on it's own.
3, The lipstick with just the highlighter on the middle of your lips.
4, The lipstick with the highlighter all over the lips.
As mentioned I really didn't enjoy the texture of the highlighter as it is really gritty
and doesn't spread evenly on to the lips.
The lipstick however is great, applies well and evenly with full opaque colour.
Although the lipstick is matte it is comfortable to wear and does not dry the lips.
nor did I find it to cling to any dry patches of the lips.
The lipstick alone wore for close to four hours but if using the highlighter with it,
it does shorten the wear time by as much as two hours.
On a side note both lip products in the duo have a strong vanilla scent
which may be a little overbearing for some but the good news is that it is hardly detectable once worn.
I will buy the rest of these simply for the lipsticks alone as they are really well formulated
and a great matte lip option!
Product Summary
Round Up - A 4-in-1 product that has a great selection of colour ways.
Best For - In my opinion the lipstick as I didn't really feel I benefited from the highlighter.
Pigmentation - (8/10) The lipstick is really pigmented.
Availability - These will launch from the 9th May and cost £3 each and will be available from
selected Superdrug stores and the MUA Webstore - link
Oh that lipstick is lovely! I'm with you not being sold on the highlighter but I'll definitely have to give matte lips a go - great colour too x
ReplyDeleteYeah the highlighter is not the best,it kinda reminds me of old school body glitter...sexy! I agree matte lips are fab and at £3 can't really beat it! x
Deletethe lipstick looks really nice but the highlighter looks like a lush sugar scrub! no bueno. ahh i do love it when you do lipstick reviews, saves a trip to superdrug :) x

It's a lovely colour, but I'm agreeing with the highlighter. Although together they look okay.

I love the lipstick part but I know if I bought this I would never use the highlighter part - it looks far too gritty! Is it uncomfortable to wear?x
ReplyDeleteThey are awasome!!I think I'm alergic to lipsticks :(
ReplyDeleteNice blog!
I really like this!! Pity i don't like Alexandra Burke haha

Oh, I like this color a lot more than the other one. It's clearly easily dupeable on its own but if you can stand the grit at least there's a somewhat unique factor to it?
