Sleek Makeup Review #2 ♥

Hey guys!

Merry Belated Christmas ;D
Today, I got my Sleek Makeup package as a Christmas gift! I ordered the Oh So Special Palette, Sleek Blush in Pixie Pink, and Sleek Makeup Pout Polish in Pink Cadillac.

The first item is the Oh So Special Palette. It has a lot of really pretty colours, and I'm sure I will enjoy using this in the future. I feel that you can make two different looks with the palette, both dark and natural!


The next item is the Sleek Makeup Blush in Pixie Pink. It looks very cute and girly, not the most natural blush colour obviously, but I love it. It is soft, and matte and looks pretty on skin.


The last item is Sleek Makeup's Pout Polish in Pink Cadillac. I think this is a pretty good product considering that it's a tinted lip colour, and a lip moisturizing product with SPF 15 as well. It has a pretty natural pink colour, and is a little buildable. It's also pretty glossy, I'm not a big fan of glossy, but it's not that bad. 


SWATCHES:


OVERALL:
Sleek Makeup is affordable, with great quality. It is long lasting, and the package came in really quickly!

Turn Dry Nail Polish into Brand New again!

Hey everyone!

Have you ever bought a bunch of really great nail polish, only to see that a couple of weeks later it has turned dry? I don't know about you, but I absolutely hate dry nail polish, especially when I wanna use it some more! Well, here is a super easy trick that will turn any dry nail polish into brand new again! Not only will it save you some money, it will also save your favourite nail polish!

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:
  1. Any dried up Nail Polish you own.
  2. Nail Polish Remover (100% Pure Acetone)


STEPS:
  1. Take your dried nail polish and set the brush aside. 
  2. Take your nail polish remover and pour an estimated amount inside the nail polish. Make sure not to put too much. Only put a little bit.
  3. Close the nail polish tight, and shake. 
Now it's brand new and ready to use again! You will be amazed at how fast, easy and effective this is! It will literally make dry nail polish wet and new again. 





My Daily Body Skin Routine ♥

Hey girlies!

Winter is just around the corner, and for some of us it has already come. Winter is a cold season, and one of the many reasons that leads to dry cracked skin. Now, I think for us ladies, we'd like to keep the skin of our legs, arms, or just our whole body in general smooth, glowy, and soft looking. This routine is not only good for one season, it is great to use all the time, for all seasons. Especially in the Summer, this routine will get your skin to glow in the sun.



This is my personal body skin routine, and I have been doing this for over a year, and my skin looks great. Do not expect instant results in the moisturizing part, but do expect quick results for the glowy part! Now let's begin this routine:

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:

  1. Vaseline (Original)
  2. Baby Oil (Preferably Johnson's. The Aloe Vera type)
  3. Moisturizing Body Lotion 


STEPS:
  1. After taking a shower, do not dry your body. While your body is still wet, take some Vaseline on your finger tips and rub it on your skin as you would do with lotion. The wetness of your body will make it easier for the Vaseline to spread. So make sure your body is wet while doing this.
  2. Dry up, but pat instead of rub. Rubbing your skin dry will just wipe off the Vaseline you have just applied. 
  3. Take some Baby Oil onto your hands and rub it like you would with lotion. If you have stretch marks, rub it on those areas especially, and on dry spots. The baby oil will instantly make your skin literally glow, and look healthy.
  4. Apply any lotion of your choice normally as you would.
Now you are finished! Your skin will instantly glow, and look and feel softer. Literally! This is great for all body types. Do not have any concerns on this making your skin oily! The Baby Oil is gentle on your skin as it is made specially for babies. The Vaseline is also originally a great moisturizing tool!



Give this body skin routine a try, and let me know what you think about it, and what it has done for you! 

Feel free to also request anything!

Love,

Show Off Saturday: Victoria's Secret Bombshell ♥

Hey guys!

I haven't posted in a while, sorry! I am starting out this new session called, "Show Off Saturday" Basically what this is, is just me showing you guys a random product I have lying around my bedroom that I either think is cute, or a product that I just love. It can be a new product, or an old product. So to start of this new session, I will be showing you off this miniature size Victoria's Secret Bombshell perfume! Super old product, it's been lying around my bedroom for a while and I have never used it.






It's just a small perfume, smaller than the size of my palm. Just a random product I thought I should share to you guys! Basic moral of this post is, look around your room! You'll never know what you'll find!! I didn't even know I had this. And that concludes the end of this super duper short post!

Oh, and a little update. I will be doing a new poll every saturday, so you can check that out and vote on the side! Thanks.

MAC & Sheer Cover Haul ♥

Hey girliesss!

This is my very first haul, with of course many more hauls to come!! This one is on a bunch of MAC and only one Sheer Cover product. I got some as a gift, but others I bought.


The first product is a MAC Eye Shadow called FLIP.


It's a gorgeous shimmery gold eye shadow, and if you don't know I LOVE gold eye shadows! It's not super high pigmented which isn't much of a problem for me, but it is definitely buildable.



The second product is another MAC Eye Shadow called Haunting.


Now normally, I wouldn't purchase a blue eye shadow by itself because it's not like I would ever wear it on a daily basis. But thinking of all the fun makeup looks you can create with this, I just thought I had to give it a try. It was something new! Besides, Halloween is just around the corner and I feel like I know just the perfect look this can help me create.


It's a gorgeous blue, and it's matte. Very lovely colour!


The third product is MAC Hyper Real/Pressed (Highlighter) in Warm Rose FX.


 Such a beautiful, beautiful highlighter! It looks like fairy dust, and I love it! It has a tad bit of shimmer, just the right amount for that beautiful glow. In the pictures it looks a little pink-ish, and looks a little peach pink in real life, but when put onto your skin it's just a pretty white shimmer.


 It's also very pigmented; you may notice so when you rub your fingers on, you will get a lot on your finger. Like most highlighters, it's buildable on the skin.


It also comes with a little powder patter? Hahah! I have no idea what you call them, but I guess their those brushes you can use to apply the highlighter with, which I don't recommend you use.


The fourth product is the one and only (in the Haul) Sheer Cover Face Palette in Sophisticate. 




The colours are absolutely gorgeous!! I'm telling you, it's like the dream palette (almost). The first colour on the top left is actually a blush (I think). In the picture it looks a little dead, but in real life it's actually a pretty soft pink colour. The second one right beside it is a gorgeous brown and tan colour. The first one on the bottom left (very sorry that you're not very able to see it!!) is a pretty pink and another gorgeous shimmery gold eyeshadow!! And the last one beside it is a matte black with a dead matte pink colour.


Tell me these colours aren't so pretty! I'm way too scared to even touch them yet, so I'm very sorry again about not being able to see the bottom one properly!



As you can see, this palette also comes with another one of these "Powder Patters"! Again, I don't quite recommend you use one of these to apply your makeup. Also the palette comes with a sponge brush and a little eye shadow brush (which again you cannot see!).


I know what you're thinking.."You left out one product!" No I didn't, I just couldn't take any good pictures of it plus I don't think it needs much explanation other than it's a foundation sponge. I actually got this for free in Sephora so...yeah! I don't think I'll use this much..or never at all.

Anyways, we've finally reached the end of this loooong and picture heavy post! Hope you enjoyed this haul, and let me know what you think about these products and if I should do more hauls! I'd love love to hear what you guys have to say.

See you on the next post!
