Sleek oh so special eyeshadow palette




Hey guys

So today I thought I'd show you one of my favourite drugstore eyeshadow palettes!
So this is the Sleek oh so special palette it is about €10 in my boots but if your unfortunate enough to not have a sleek in your superdrug or boots you can get it off the sleek website or eBay.

This palette has 12 eyeshadows with a mix of mattes and shimmers ,the palette has a wide range of lights pink to beige to dark plums is so perfect for everyday natural looks as well as dark smokey eyes for a party which is great because you get two types of looks for the price of one! 
The black 'sleek'- no pun intended ,packiging is great for traveling since it's so compacked it can fit nicely in my makeup bag! It also comes with a massive mirror which is brilliant for makeup on the go since I'm always running late and doing my makeup in a car or a bus!

Bow,organza,ribbon,gift basket,glitz and celebrate

My favourite shades from the top row are organza and gift basket because I love light pinks and beiges like this! Bow and ribbon are a bit chalky and powdery but I still use bow as a inner eye highlight , ribbon is a nice pop of coral in this palette , I say it would be lovely in the summer with a tan ! For the other two glitz and celebrate are extremely pigmented and very daring for me but I say someone with a much darker skin tone than me could totally rock these shade.
Pamper,gateau,the mail,wrapped up,boxed and noir

My favourite shades from the bottom row have to be gateau which is a beautiful frosty pink with golden shimmer and when you apply it to your lid it almost looks holographic or rose gold! Which I'm a massive fan of. I also like boxed since it is a great crease colour since it is a cool matte shade it's really buildable but sometimes I find that it falls off my brush ,
while I blending the crease and it ends up on my cheeks.
I don't really dip into the mail much just because it doesn't really show up on your lid as much as I'd hoped along with noir - don't get me wrong IT SHOWS UP even a bit too much , I find black quite useless colour for me because I'm too nervous to use a black but for others they could really make this work or they just have a light hand.



Over all I find this palette really amazing for a beginner to makeup since it's not to wild or expensive and it has a wide range of quite natural girly colours. I think that the matte shades colour payoff isn't as good as the shimmers as you could probably tell by the swatches. I find that glitz is very similar to the urban decay naked palette  gunmail also bow is very like virgin from the same palette!

Hope you guys enjoyed this blog post and let me know what sleek palettes you have because I really want to try some more! Follow me on my Twitter and this blog your reading right now!

Pressure.

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a long while between sailing training and school I haven't had time for anything. This week I wanted to talk about pressure , because I've had a lot of pressure put on me this past month and I'm not talking about peer pressure which is what everybody seems to think teenagers means when they say they are under pressure , no not like that really. I'm talking about the pressure from your sports club to do great in every race you do and win everything you participate in or pressure from the internet and social media to have to perfect body with amazing skin and your hair and makeup to always look nice and to always me ready for a photo because you know that's what teenage girls have to do for somebody to like them and that's not fair! Sometimes I just want to where unmatching tracksuit and have frizzy hair and still go out even for a walk with my dog but no people laugh and shout your name from across the street. I have

My shower time favs !

Hey guys, Sorry I've been gone for so long! I promise I do have a reason....s , to start off my wifi has been broken! Also I have been focusing a lot of my time on my school work and sailing which has really been improving. So today I would show you what I've recently been loving for the shower! Enjoy!   Firstly I'm obsessed with the 'soap & glory' I don't know if it's there extremely pink and girly packaging or the amazing scents but I've been obsessed with their products recently from makeup to body care to their skincare , I love it all. The Scrub Of Your Life  is without a doubt one of the best body scrubs I have ever tried! I find that there is a perfect ratio of beads to gel and it really does what it's says on the package which is 'super-smoothing body buffer'. After I've used this my dry patchy tan is completely gone along with my dry skin and it's leaves a soft smooth feel to my skin. Sugar Crush body

Nails of the day....s

Hello everybody, So since it's now officially "summer" ... Or spring as I'm calling it! I'm not wearing the dark plums and wine nail polishes anymore and I've sprung into the spring feeling -no pun intended. So today I thought I'd show you my top 4 nail polishes for spring that I've been loving , minus a pastel yellow because I haven't been able to find the perfect shade yet so if you guys have any recommendations please leave them below.                            Astor fashion studio  in 134 ,sorry please don't mind the German link but I got mine in boots if your wondering. This nail polish is such a lovely pastel purple shade which just screams SPRING! I find that the nail polish just glides onto my nails so smoothly and it drys quite quickly as well which means less chance of smudging but even if you do mange to smudge your nail it doesn't look really obvious.
