MOTD: Copper eyes, red lips.

Hello! I have a makeup of the day post for you all... enjoy!


So, as you can see I wore a copper and brown smokey kind of eye today with these deep red lips. For the eyes, I used my Sleek Oh So Special palette which has a range of great colours for the perfect smokey eye. I also used Miss Sporty's Fabulous Lash mascara on the lashes. I used a Revlon brow powder for the eyebrows. 



For the face, I used Rimmel's Wake Me Up Foundation. I then used Collection's Lasting Perfection concealer and contoured and highlighted with my Sleek Face Form palette. For the blush I used Collection's Shimmer Shades quad blush palette.




On to the lips, I primed them as always with a lip balm and then firstly applied my Soap and Glory Cheek Mate lip and cheek stain. After putting around 2 coats of this on, I went over with my limited edition Barry M red lip gloss.



And that's the look complete! Thank you very much for reading, leave any comments down below!

Review: Sleek Face Form Palette!

Hey! Today I am going to review for you all today Sleek's Face Form palette. Enjoy!

I have had this product for quite a while now, I got it back in July and have been using it ever since more or less daily. I got my palette in the shade Light and it contains 3 products in one handy palette. It has a contour powder, a highlight powder and a blusher.


All of these minus the contour powder are shimmery in their finish and they are super pretty. You get a really impressive amount of product in this palette as well, which I love. It comes with a handy mirror within the palette as well which is another added bonus to Sleek palettes!


The contour powder is smooth and is a mid brown colour that when applied to the skin looks extremely natural. This can also double up as a bronzer!

The highlight powder has a shimmery finish and is a creamy white/beige shade. This can be used a face highlight for along the cheekbones and length of the nose as well as for a brow bone highlight.

The blusher is this really nice, shimmery peach shade and it looks so pretty on the skin! 

All of the powder have a very smooth, soft finish and they all blend considerably well. For the cheap price and with what you get, this is definitely a palette worth investing in!

You can get the Sleek Face Form palette from your local Superdrug or the Sleek website, here. It is £9.99 which I think is very reasonable!

Thank you for reading this post, I hope you enjoyed it. Have you guys tried this palette yet? What did you think?!

MOTD: 10/10/13.

Hello! Today I have a makeup of the day post for you all. I went for a neautral eye and a bold lip today. This look uses pink tones with the blush and the lip products used, enjoy!


SO, as always I applied a light moisturiser to my face and primed my lips with a little bit of lip balm. I then applied my foundation and concealer. I used my Maybelling Dream Fresh BB cream instead of actual foundation because I wanted to go for a really light, fresh look. I concealed with my Rimmel Stay Matte concealer stick. 

Moving on to the eyebrows and eyes.. I lightly filled in my brows with a mid brown eyeshadow. I then primed my eyelids with my Elf primer and then applied a very light, shimmery champagne eyeshadow to the the whole lid. In the crease I applied a light, shimmery brown and blended it out, deepening the colour of the outer corner and working inwards just a little bit. I highlighted my brow bone with a light white shadow and I lined my lower lid with a mid eyeshadow and blended this out. I then applied my favourite mascara and the eyes are complete!

Back onto the face, I used my Sleek Face Form kit to first contour my cheekbones. I then highlighted the top and length of my nose and along the top of my cheeks with the shimmery highlight colour in the kit. For my blush, I used my MUA blush in the shade 'Marshmallow'. 

For the lips I applied my Collection 2000 Cream Puff lip cream in the shade 'Cotton Candy'.

I topped everything off with a little bit of my Rimmel Stay Matte powder to eliminate shine and shimmer in places I didn't want it!

And that is the look COMPLETE! Tah-dah!

I really hope you liked this look, I think it's really simple and very pretty for everyday wear. Let me know what you think of it! Please, leave any comments and suggestions you might have as I love to hear from you all, thank you for reading this post!
