Sleek Au Naturel...


For those that love their nudes your in for a treat. Sleek make up will seen be releasing their Nude collection, which consist of an array of nude delights. The nude palette contains a mixture of mattes and shimmer based shadows, ranging from earthy browns to natural tan.

I am probably not the best person to swatch this palette as most of the colours blend into my beige skin : /, but I hope you can get the jest.

Up first the  pout polish in Bare Minimum (£4.29) this pout polish definitely has to be my favourite yet. It wouldn't show up  in a swatch so I didn't bother to include one. To some it up in one, it gives a lovely wash of nude colour to the lips.

Up next is the blush in Suede (£4.29) which is swatched above. A perfect tone for contouring or adding a pop of colour to your natural make up.

Lastly the palette in Au-Naturel (£6.49) I personally cant wait to create a smokey eye with this. I'm loving the deep earth tones included in this palette, as well as the matte browns for a subtle but sultry day time look.

The Nude collection launches on the 31ST of August and will be available in superdrug stores and online at Sleek Make up.

Oh So Special


Lovers of Sleek MakeUp Palettes I introduce "Oh So Special"  the latest addition to the i-Divine family...
 Oh So Special is the perfect palette for the everyday girl, comprising of everyday beige shades through to sultry smokey eye night time greys. The colours are very pigmented, although you may be wondering why there is a gap in the bottom row of my swatches.... errrrm I'm just weird colour and the eyeshadow (The Mail) is exactly the same colour as me : /

My fave colour in the Palette is 'GATEAU' not only is it slightly reminiscent to the famous Rose Gold blush, but I think as well as an eyeshadow, it could possibly double up as a really nice highlight. (I shall test this theory)

The palette is available in Superdrug stores in July as well as online usual price of £6.49

Will you be adding this to your wish list?

Candy Cane...

(left to right: Coral Reef, Barely there, Heartbreaker and Candy Cane)

Ok, im sure you all know that Sleek have recently bought out a load of new true colour lippies so I will skip that boring part.....

After seeing Candy Cane on Kaushals blog I had to have it. As soon as I got home I whacked it on and instantly fell in love, its so purrrdy....

Its mega hard to photograph though, it keeps bloody coming up pink!! The swatch of it (above) is a lot truer to its colour.

As the lippies are currently on deal in Superdrugs at 2 for £6, of course I picked up 4! its only standard for us make up junkies. They are all very lovely on and most of the colours in the range will suit everyone.

I have included swatches above of the other colours I picked up with the names under the pic. Coral Reef is another one that is annoyingly hard to photograph, GAHHH!! but its one you definitely need to check out.

I'm actually in love with all the lippies I picked up, now I just need to buck up the confidence to walk outside with them on -_-

You can pick up the sleek lippies at Superdrug and on their online store HERE

3 For 2

Superdrug are currently holding 3 for 2 mix 'n' match across all cosmetics, and there's no rush getting down there either as this marvelous deal ends in January.

I picked up the 2 Sleek blushes I was lusting after: Sunrise (L) and Rose Gold. At first I couldn't find them, and I felt a slight tantrum building up inside of me when the S.A told me they didn't stock them anymore "SAY WHAAAT" but just before I was ready to roll my eyes and start moaning to my friend, she told me she may have a couple stashed away in the draw, and she did woohoo!!

I also randomly discovered this beauty by Sue Moxley. It was said to be a bronzer so of course I was like "This isn't a bronzer!!" *swatch* and it definitely isn't. But it is one of the prettiest things I have ever seen.

It looks a lot like something that could have come from mac, its dome shaped, finely milled and the powder itself is super soft. The packaging is really nice and it has a massive mirror in the lid, as well as a brush to apply, which is a bit 'meh' to be honest.

I have been applying this with my duo fibre brush to set my foundation, and its lovely. It gives a beautiful soft focus sheen to the skin without making you look white and dusty.

Swatches above from Left to Right: Sleek Sunrise, Sue Moxley-Miami and Sleek Rose Gold

I love all of these and would happily buy them again, especially Rose Gold, its so gorgeous.

Sleek Blushes - £3.99
Sue Moxley Miami - £6

Have any of you taken advantage of the 3 or 2? I think I want to try the Loreal Voluminous Mascara so I will definitely be going back......

4 Step Smokey Eye

Right ladies,Put your brushes to one side because all you need here is your fingers.Some of you may have seen this lovely look I created by luck....


I was asked to let you all know how I did it,so here goes...

1.pick a colour,any colour,as my look was created with only one

2.Rub whatever finger you are going to use in your colour of choice

3.apply the colour all over your lid,starting in the middle of your lid,as close to the lashline as possible

4.Blend outwards(cat like),as you do this the colour will naturally fade due to lack of product on your finger

Thats it,I told you it was really easy,and to prove my lazy way still works,ive just created these...

(storm palette)

wow my camera is really rubbish,I assure you im neither yellow or pink lol....

(graphite palette)

All colours are from the sleek palettes

Hope this has helped you all
