Sleek Primer Palette

Top colours: No sleek primer underneath
Bottom colours: With sleek primer colours underneath sleek eyshadows

Hi darlings! i bought the sleek primer palette last week, this has been out for a while now, so i know i'm a lil late with this lol! i picked out the nicest colours out of the palette and used it to swatch along side with the original sleek palette. 

i love sleek eyeshadows! i was a bit of a snob towards it many years ago but i have converted lol!  
they are really nice and pigmented and very nice to use together or on their own, fantastic value for the money!
However the only down side to the shadows are that they are not that longlasting so you would need a
 brilliant primer underneath to get the most out of the colours.

i would defo recommend you lovelies to go out and buy it, its only £6.99 from superdrug!

Top tip for soft, kissable lips!

I'm sure nearly every one suffers from dry lips in the winter... so a here's a top tip for keeping lips soft, kissable and sexy:

1)Get ur favorite lip balm, (u can also alternatively use simple vaseline for this too.)
My fave lip balm is definately carmex mint

Put a pea size amount into ur palm

2)Get just under half a teaspoon of sugar, this can be ordinary granulated sugar that u put in ur tea, coffee etc and put into the pea size amount of carmex in ur palm.

3) Now give the carmex and sugar a good mix, with ur finger or the spoon.... and there u have it... home made lip exfoliant!!

4) So now what u would do is simply apply on the the lips with finger and really give a good massage. The sugar will exfoliate all the nasty dry skin whilst the carmex will moisturise the lips as u are doing so. 

                          Sweet minty lips..... Have a try guys and let me know what you think

Classic smoky




I'm wanting to do freelancing work in makeup so I recently did a photoshoot for my work and this was one of the looks i did, ( along with gold/purple smoky and dirty green and blacked out in my earlier posts). These looks will be used for advertising on my leaflets/business cards... hope u like it! (this look was done on my sister in law btw)

P.s this was done using the elf pallete that was given as a freebie during christmas when a £10 shopping was done
