So I am sure that most of you by now have heard of the Love Hearts collection that MUA have recently brought out. If not, it is a range of nail polishes and tinted lip balms that come in a selection of pastel and bright colours, perfect for summer. I am a bit late on the bandwagon to purchase some of the products as they don't stock the collection in the Superdrugs in my home town, so I had to wait until I went to Liverpool today, where I picked up the entire range of nail polishes. There are six different shades to choose from, so I thought I would make this post to give those of you who are still pondering over what to buy an idea of what the colours are actually like on the nails. I stood outside to take the pictures to try and get an accurate picture of the colours as I am sick of the lighting in my house not doing my nail polishes justice in my NOTD posts haha! I have also stated underneath each picture how many coats it took me to achieve opacity.
Left to Right: U R FAB, LOVE U 24/7, U ROK, I <3 U, U & I, I WANT U
"U R FAB"
One coat for opacity.
"LOVE U 24/7"
Two coats for opacity.
"U ROK"
Two coats for opacity.
"I <3 U"
Four coats for opacity.
"U & I"
One coat for opacity.
"I WANT U"
Three coats for opacity.
Although I can't really comment on the longevity of these polishes yet, I have read in many reviews that they are just like an average polish, lasting around three days before they start to chip. I found that some of these were easier to apply than others, the purple/blue colours and the yellow applied quite smoothly, however I found that the nude and the orange streaked quite a lot, which is why it took a lot of coats to build them up. These polishes are quite fast drying, which, if you are impatient like I am, is always a good thing. My favourite colours have got to be LOVE U 24/7 and I <3 U. I have been looking for a lilac and a nude that suit my skin tone for ages and these are both perfect, I just wish the nude colour didn't take so many coats :(
At £2 each, I don't think you can complain about these polishes, and I would definitely recommend you try them, along with most of the MUA range. These can be bought at selected Superdrug stores and also on the MUA website.
I hope you found this post helpful!
