Sleek Contour Kits

Yep, another blog about Sleek products..... can you tell how much I LOOOOOVE Sleek yet??? lol

A quick Blog on the Sleek Contour Kits pictured below.

Contour Kit - Medium 885 & Dark 886

I only bought the above 2 kits as  my skin tone is more of a Honey/Tan colour and so the other contour kit  in the colour  'Light' would not have suited me at all. For those of use with a lighter complexion I think the Light or Medium kit would be good for you.

Right, so the contour kits..... what do I think..... another must have lol. I dont think you need 2 of the 3 contour kits they have, but I bought mine to add to my Makeup Kit :)  Its not always about high end brands like M.A.C, Bobbi Brown etc you can find alot of dupes in the market and at a very cheaper price.

Medium 885 - I prefer this kit out of the 2 for my skin tone. If used correctly you can contour your face to look natural and defined. You can also achieve that Summer bronzed look by adding another layer of the brown and then the highlight colour on the top of you cheek bone. The highlight colour is a little similar to the M.A.C Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle (one of my faves)

Dark 886 - This Contour Kit would be great for someone with a darker complexion, maybe a M.A.C NW43 or a BB Golden or Warm Almond. I can still use this colour on my self but just not as heavy as I would with the Medium. The brown here is more darker and doesn't look as natural on my skin tone... and as for the highlighter, I prefer to use it as an eye shadow as the colour is too prominent on my face. Again, on a darker skin tone the highlighter would look amazing!!

The kits cost £6.50 here in the UK, and again is worth every penny. Sturdy and compact, which I love about Sleek, not a lot of the high street makeup brands put effort into the packaging and forget that, that too makes an impact on the over all product.  

Just to note, I have nothing to do with this company, all products that I have & will review, are bought with my own hard earned cash!! :)

Sleek eau la la Liner

I bought the Sleek 'eau la la' Liners just to give them a go and see how smudge proof and water proof they really are. They are priced at £4.00 here in the UK, I got mine, 2 for £6 at the stand they put up for a short while at the Westfield shopping centre in Stratford. These pencils can be used on the Eyes, Lips, Brows and wherever else.....so I gave them a go and can say that they do stay in place for a very loooooong time. I wore them on the water line all day long and as a lip liner and it did not smudge! I've used the liners on some bridal clients and they have proved to be water proof ;) They are, as usual, rich in colour, really creamy and glide on smoothly. Easy to apply and work with.

Here's a list of the colours I've bought:

White Noise 318 - All in the name, your basic White

Tonic 292 - A gorgeous Emerald Green

Bullion 290 - A beautiful Gold

Blue Moon 323 - A must have Electric Blue

& Venom 295 - A Plum colour which I fell in love with and looks rich on the lips!

These pencils are quite similar to the NYX Jumbo eye pencils except that the eau la la liners are waterproof. Just like the NYX pencils, layer on top some powder product in the similar shade and the colour will really come through!

Another great buy from Sleek. There are a lot of other colours to chose from and I think these will be great fun to play around with. Great for some creative minds too. :)

Sleek Blush By 3 Palettes

Pink Sprint & Pumpkin

So I have been dying for these Blusher palettes by Sleek and have had my eye on them for weeks!! It was soooo hard to choose out of the 5 palettes they have but in the end I chose the above. With the palettes priced at £10 each I couldn't stretch to £50 for all 5 :(

The first thing I noticed about these palettes is the obvious fact that you get 3 blushers in 1. An individual blush by Sleek cost you £4.30, where as these palettes of 3 cost you £10. You get 20 grams of product in the whole palette, working out to be about 6.6grams of products in each blush pan. :)

Please have a look on the sleek website for a more in detail description of the above 2 sleek palettes. Read on to see a small description from myself..... 

Pink Spirit 366 (all Matt) - A lovely selection of Pink/Purple blushers... the first in the palette called 'Pink Parfait' is a beautiful dark pink blush, great to define the cheeks. Next in the palette we have 'Pink Ice' a lovely sherbet pink perfect Summer and lastly we have 'Pinktini' in the palette. Quite a cool name too...and another lovely colour to wear all year round. 

Pumpkin 363 - A must have out of all the palettes..... the first in the palette is called Lantern, a shimmery Coral colour which is a beautiful bridal colour in my eyes.... Next in the palette we have 'Squash' which looks similar to the Pink Ice in Pink Spirit but its actually a lighter version, more baby pink and again great for summer and lastly we have 'P Pie' a lovely bright Orange which might look a little scary to try but trust me if applied little by little it will look great and not Orange at all, unless you've piled on the colour :/

Again another great purchase from Sleek and would highly recommend to you all. Its my mission to purchase the rest of the palettes as they are great sets to add to a makeup artist kit or just add to your personal collection :)
