DRUGSTORE/AFFORDABLE LOOK | PINK GLAM EYES & SOFT PINK OMBRE LIPS

Les Yeux -
Using NYX eye pencil in white I covered the whole lid to work as a base for the shadow.
I then used Maybelline 24hr Colour Tattoo in Pink Gold on the outer half of the lid.
Using ELF's mineral eyeshadow in Sweet, I packed that ontop of where I placed the Colour Tattoo base.
Using ELF's mineral eyeshadow in Angelic, I packed that on the inner half of the lid, ontop of the white base.
Using my Sleek iDivine palette in 'Oh So Special' I ran 'The Mail' through the crease as a transition colour for the darker colours we will be using.
From the same palette I placed 'Celebrate' on the outer third, then 'Noir' on the outermost part of the lid to gradiate into 'Celebrate'
I once again ran 'The Mail' through the crease to transition and blend the colours together.
I used the same sequence and techniques for the bottom lid and highlighted the brow bone with ELF's mineral eyeshadow in 'Angelic.'
I also created a strong cat eye using Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Liner, to create a precise and sharp line I used the old tape trick, works every time!

LIPS -
For the lips I wanted a soft pink ombre lip to tie in with the pink tones on the lid.
I used ELF's prime & plump, but just the primer side to erase the pigment in my lips.
I then over-lined my lips with ELF's retractable lip liner in Natural - as the name suggests it's a natural tone which doesn't match the choice of lip colour however as I'm over-lining this creates a realistic shadow, making your lips much more believable haha.
I used MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer in Serene as a base, then placed NYX Black Label lipstick in India in the center of my lid, then Lime Crime's Opaque lipstick in Geradium around the edges/corners of my lips.
To blend the two colours together I used dabbing motions, rubbing your lips together usually does the trick however I found this didn't work as much with a matte lip.
To neaten the edges I used Dainty Doll Concealer with an angled brush.

REVIEW: SLEEK i-DIVINE PALETTE - OH SO SPECIAL

FINALLY I got myself a Sleek Palette, I saw A LOT of people raving about these palettes so I just had to get one for myself.
The colours in the 'Oh So Special' palette really caught my eye - that obviously had nothing to do with the shimmery pinks and rose gold tones haha
But seriously the colours are so pretty in this palette, the colours are very feminine and range from soft pinks, to deep plums which I love. You can really create a load of different looks with these colours. 

First of all the packaging is great in my opinion I like the matte vs. glossy text its very simple and chic.

The palette comes with an acetone sheet with the names of all the shades. I would have preferred if thehad imprinted the names of the shades underneath the shadow itself because having a loose sheet can be a pain to remember to keep with the palette - but this is a niggly complaint and I'm not all that bothered really considering the cost (it cost me £7.99 for 12 shades, you can't go wrong!)

Also considering the price I think the eyeshadows are so pigmented and the shades are beautiful! 
From left to right we have the shades: Bow, Pamper, Ribbon, Organza, Gateau & Gift Basket.
You can't even see Bow haha, its a pale nude shade & is probably the least pigmented out of the bunch, it certainly isn't my favourite in comparision to how gorgeous the shades Organza, Gateau and Gift Basket are, JUST LOOK AT THEM they're so pretty! 

From left to right we have the shades: Glitz, Noir, Boxed, Wrapped Up, Celebrate & The Mail.
These shades are extremely rich and pigmented, great for Autumn/Winter & night time looks. I love that Sleek seem to have created a shimmery version of each matte shade, i.e Noir > Glitz, Wrapped Up > Celebrate, etc. 
My least favourite out of this bunch is The Mail only because I feel its too warm for my pale skin but that is certainly no fault of sleeks, I could probably make it work somehow. I love the pigmentation of the black shades Noir and Glitz, Glitz is slightly more gunmental which I love as it makes the shimmer stand out more, I think its tough to find a really great black shade that is a 'true' black and this is it :)
I'm also dying over celebrate its just a perfect shimmery plum I JUST LOVE IT OKAY

Overall I'm extremely please with my purchase, the shades are very pigmented and have great creamy textures that are long wearing, it's really worth checking out!
