Sleek Blush By 3

Blush...my current weakness. Yes i've moved on from lipsticks and back to blush!! And just in time actually. Sleek just launched they're new line of blush palettes. These blush by 3 palettes like the name suggest, come with 3 highly pigmented shades that are ideal for travel. 

I only picked up one palette in Lace and am in love!!!! There's no doubt about it that we all have heard about how highly pigmented Sleek blushes can be and these are no exception. Three gorgeous variations of pinky corally shades that definitely will suit any skin tone. You really need a light hand with these blushers, a little goes a long way.
Too bad the Southern hemisphere is going into winter now, but hey looks like there will be a couple of sunshiny days ahead and i'm not putting these gorgeous babies away, just yet.



Chantilly, Guipure and Crochet

Have you tried these new blush palettes?

Sleek True Colour Lipsticks Swatches

I thinks i have become addicted to lipsticks. I thought I had a problem with blush but no, definitely need a lipstick ban in place now. So I was watching a lot of British youtubers rave about the Sleek True Colour lippys and I thought heck i need some in my life, rite?Common i'm trying to justify these purchases. I made an order on the Sleek website and voila after 2 weeks, received them. These are the three shades I picked up. 


Papaya Punch is a matte lippy that to be honest i don't like. Gorgeous colour but it tugs when your applying it. Definitely not a smooth application and if your lips are even a tiny bit flaky, this will just accentuate it. Such a pity because it's such a gorgeous colour!


Peaches and Cream , a sheen finish is a gorgeous peachy nude, perfect for a dramatic eye. I quite like this, it definitely did not make me look dead as many nudes would. I find it hard to find a good nude lipstick for my skintone and this topped with a nude gloss might just do the trick.


Finally Coral Reef,  also a sheen finish. Even from the picture you can see it has a glossy finish. This colour is bright and i mean BRIGHT in your face! But i think its perfect to jazz up a simple outfit day or night. Put this baby on and BAM lips in your face!

Have you tried Sleek True Colour Lipsticks? yay or nay?

Post Exam Goodies!

There's nothing like a little after exam haulin' to make u feel better. After a stressfull 2 weeks I was greeted by 3 packages that I had purchased during my exam period. Oh the joy of opening them up and swatching away! 

My Cherry Culture haul that I purchased during one of their 20% off sales arrived with the new Nyx Matte lippys and some round lip-glosses .  The next day I received my Sleek order and the following day I received my eBay order with all the Wet n Wild stuff. It was like Christmas in August!





And the lovely boyfriend bought me the Lush Coco Lotion as a "please stop stressing so much, you will do fine in your exams" present. So sweet :)

I will be doing swatches of the lippys over the next few weeks so stay tuned.
