A lot of you have been commenting that you'd like to see more drugstore/cheaper brands on my blog, and what better way to show you some cheap polishes than with MUA or Make Up Academy. MUA originally came about as an exclusive brand in Superdrug stores in the UK, with their products ranging from £1-£4. They have recently launched their own website which hosts all of their products and also offers international shipping too. Their mainline polishes retail for just £1 with their crackle & glitter crackle polishes retailing for £2.99.
Today I have for you Shade 19 in their collection which is a gorgeous nude beige creme with a slight hint of purple undertones. The application is pretty standard, this is two thick coats, my only problem with MUA polishes are that the brush is so small and can sometimes be a bit temperamental and hard to grip. But for £1, you can't really complain too much right?
Have you ever tried any MUA products? Be it their make up or nail polish range? I have a lot of their make up line and I have to say, for £1 it is pretty incredible.

Nail Trends: Autumn 2011 - Below Deck & Devotion
Today we have two by China Glaze - Below Deck and Devotion.
Below Deck comes from the Anchors Away collection and is a lovely creme polish. One of those ever-popular purple/grey shades. Apparently, this was supposed to be a replica of Channelesque, and although only seeing photos, they do look pretty similar! It's high gloss and very pigmented! Can wear with just one coat.
What are your opinions of this? Let me know!
