August Newbies!

Hey guys!

Thought I would do a blog update on all my latest purchases and what you can anticipate from future blogs! I have been able to sample some different brands lately and here is a sneak peak of some of my faves.

The famous Smashbox photo finish primer. Have used this a handful of times now and have loved the long lasting effect it gives my make up. Cannot wait to try it out with different foundations.


Estée Lauder double wear. I'm sure you may have heard about this amazing foundation but just in case you haven't I will be writing a full review on this soon. The coverage is flawless and it is extremely long lasting! An amazing find!


The new MAC electric cool shadows have recently caught my eye. I finally took the plunge and purchased 'in orbit'. I honestly cannot wait to try this out as the texture and finish looks and feels amazing!




Hope you are having a lovely day and keep your eyes peeled on my Instagram for updates!

Core Collection - Sleek Brow Kit

Hello!

Again I'm very sorry for the delay in blogs, been super busy lately! Fortunately I have been shopping for new products to test out and have found some new staple items for my make up bag. Check out my Instagram if you want a sneak peak of whats to come!

Today I am reviewing Sleek's eyebrow kit, a product I have been using for a while as a dupe of the famous 'brow zings' by Benefit. These kits are designed for people who prefer a more structured and defined brow, as the brushes create neat sleek lines. 



The Sleek kit includes a brow wax, powder, an angled brush, a curved brush and a set of tweezers (which alone are AMAZING). I find the angled brush ideal for applying the wax first, as its easy to create the outline of your brow and then drag the product through the rest of the brow to create the shape and then apply the powder to fill them in. For a more natural looking brow I team this product with Benefits 'gimme brow', which allowes me to comb the product through to reduce definition and evenly distribute the powder. 

I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking to invest in an eyebrow kit, as it's easy to use and creates a fantastic defined eyebrow. The tweezers included are amazing, and the compact packaging means you can use it on the go! The price of the product compared to similar kits is great, and so far I have hardly made a dent in the product after everyday use! I will be placing this prouct into my everyday make up bag.
