MUA Love Hearts Collection- Nail polishes

Along with some lip balms, MUA have also released a selection of nail polishes in their 'Love Hearts collection'. There are 6 polishes in the range and they are all priced at £2 each.


'U & I' is a pastel lemon which I think is very similar to Models Own-Lemon Meringue. I think that it would be very hard to find a pastel yellow that isn't streaky, so I don't think that this is fault of this specific polish. I think it's the same with very pale pinks, no matter what brand or price they are I always find them very streaky. The photo above was 2 coats.

I apologize for not being able to take a swatch photo of 'LOVE U 24/7', but this happened with the brush as soon as I opened it :


It's such a shame because MUA products are so affordable and amazing quality, but I think that they need to go through further quality control tests for packaging etc because I have had a few faulty products from them now. I suppose you get what you pay for huh!? I did try using a random nail art brush to paint it on, but it just wasn't happening at all!

I like the look of 'U ROK', which is a gorgeous cornflower blue/purple. I might have to pick that one up!

Have you ever been annoyed when some shoddy packaging has not allowed you to use the product?

These are available in selected Superdrug stores and online here . *

Lots of love

  3. I had that problem with the raspberry colour polish! I tried painting a nail but it went everywhere, and I couldn't fix the brush either :( x

  4. I love the yellow but I wish it wasn't so streaky! I do love all the colours, I've got the U R Fab raspberry shade but I don't find it lasts too well which is a shame as the colour is gorgeous (like a smoothie)!

  5. Such a shame about the faulty brush, I must say that the brush on my U ROK is very uneven and difficult to use, but worth it for the beautiful colour (:

  7. Aww, such a shame about the faulty one! I've had my eye on a couple of the Lovehearts polishes since I first saw swatches, so I'll definitely be trying to nab some when I see them in store! xx
