Sleek Kiss










I have been absolutely loving Sleek 
make up ever since I got my first Sleek Lipstick,
their products are so lovely and well made
and are not too harsh on your bank either!

And lately I've really been on the hunt for 
a good day time summery (even though summer is nearly over?)
blusher and a good eyebrow kit of some sort.
So I thought why not check out Sleek first?

So this is what I came back with!





So first is the eyebrow "pencil".
This is more of a waxy crayon than a pencil
and I know waxy is't the word you really wanna hear when it 
comes to eyebrows. If you go overboard by scratching it on like it's a Biro
then yes it may well look like you've gelled your brows.
But I only use a minimal amount just to get some shape into my brows.
However on a good side to it's waxy texture is you
can easily blend it out.
Especially when using the opposite end that comes with 
a blending bristle.


It's very easy to apply with its angled tip enabling 
you to create different thickness's.
This was from Superdrug and was £5.99.

Next is the Blusher.



I'm so glad I picked this up!
It's a beautiful matte Blush that is very easy to blend
and they have some lovely colours!
Also it is very compact so it's great to carry in your bag.



This is colour "sahara 934" and it is a lovely coral,
peachy colour that is a great pick me up for my 
dull skin.
This was also from Superdrug for £4.49.


And lastly this isn't a Sleek product but I 
thought I'd throw it instead of doing a separate review.




This primer is from a collection called 'Kiss'
from Wilkinsons.
This primer has been really good so far,
it glides on the skin nicely and leaves it feeling
ridiculously soft while keeping my make up in place for longer.
I did notice it helped my foundation and blusher to stop sliding off
when it was really hot so fingers crossed
it won't let me down on holiday!
This was a brilliant buy for only £4!





Have you tried any of these?
Any other good eyebrow kits I should try?

Mini Primark & Wilkinsons Haul








I don't know about you, but I think 
there is not one girl alive who could walk into Primark
and not purchase something. 
There's something about it that just makes you believe
you need whatever it is you've been bombarded with.

Like me; I had a pair of shorts I had to return
and I actually had to mentally prepare myself
to not buy anything!
But yet the minute I march through them beautiful doors 
I find myself grabbing a bag
and heading straight for the dresses!

Even when I got to the till, they had packs
of mini toothbrush holders, did I need them? No.
Did I even have a mini toothbrush?Nope. 
Was I going to buy it? Yes.
Why?? My brain justifies this with "it's cute".
And before I knew it I left wondering why that 
just happened and now have to go 
change my pennies up at Tesco to buy a drink...


But anyway despite the desperate woman
in me I did put back some of the clothes.
(I'll come back for them another time ;))
So here's a few things I picked up
for our Holiday!


So first things first are these trousers.
Now these are actually pyjamas but I thought
they'd look nice as light baggy trousers?
Maybe it's just me but either way they'll be super comfy.
These were £6.




These shorts are so adorable and for only £3 you can't go wrong!


These shoes are super comfy, they have a spongy 
base and are elasticated for wide feet 
so these will be great for days with a lot of walking.
£6.


Now I thought these were sooo cute.
Primark have some great hair bits at the moment
with lots of floral headbands and hair bands etc.
I thought these bands would look lovely in a bun
or plait.
These were just £2!


And finally I was looking for a cheap face Primer
for holiday to stop my make up sliding off
and I found this in Wilkinsons so I thought
I'd give it a go.



The brand is "Kiss" and this was just £4
but they have lots of products to offer.
I'll definitely be purchasing more if this is a hit.





That's it folks!
Let me know if you've tried this primer 
and what did you think?
