Hey guys! Today I have a little review on the Make Up Academy Bold Blue nail polish (wow two posts about nail polishes in a row). MUA have become very well known in the past few months for their great low-cost products, especially for their dupes of the Urban Decay Naked 1 & 2 palettes! I have seen people getting a little bit annoyed after MUA repackaged their £1 nail polishes to look pretty much identical to Essie nail polish bottles. Personally I think that they look far better than they used to, however it's a bit naughty that they made them so similar to Essie bottles!
When I was in Superdrug last week I decided to pick up one in the shade Bold Blue. I had planned on getting more shades, however they were sold out of all of the ones I would have liked, apart from this particular one. Bold Blue is such a lovely bright blue colour and would be great for Spring or Summer. Anyway on with the review!
When I first applied this to my nails I was a bit put off to say the least. It was drying very fast, which is normally good, however this was so fast that when I went onto paint another strip of my nail, the first bit would already be drying, meaning it would look really uneven and not very nice! After a few seconds I noticed that somehow the unevenness was actually disappearing, making it go completely smooth and professional looking.
One of the things I didn't like about this was that the polish is quite a thin liquid, so it takes about 4 or 5 coats to make it opaque, but I suppose for £1 what do I really expect. Once I had finished, I used my Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat (one of my new firm favourites!) just to make sure everything was dried properly.
The lasting power is really good, it lasted about 4 days without a single chip! When it did eventually chip I couldn't help but peel it off, to which I discovered it peels off quite easily. This fact isn't exactly very good encouragement for me to say the least, so I wasn't keen about that.
In the end I was so impressed with the finish and overall factors of the MUA polishes. I will without a doubt be buying more shades once they come back into stock, and would definitely recommend them as they are just as good, if not better, than some more expensive nail polishes that I have tried, plus for £1 who can really argue?!
Have you tried any MUA nail polishes and what did you think of them? Also I would love to see any of your blog posts about them!
I can't wait to get my hands on some of the Mua polishes but as I'm on my spending ban I have to wait til July D: Bold blue looks amazing, will definitely have to pick that up when I can :)

However, the possibilities of getting all the payouts are zero except the largest one. If the payout is 코인카지노 4,000 times the enter quantity, and it occurs each 4,000 times on average, the return to player is exactly 100%, but the game could be uninteresting to play. Also, most individuals wouldn't win something, and having entries on the paytable that have a return of zero could be deceptive. As these individual possibilities are carefully guarded secrets, it's possible that the advertised machines with excessive return to player merely improve the possibilities of these jackpots. The casino could legally place machines of an analogous type payout and promote that some machines have 100% return to player.
