Sleek Palette in Storm - Review, Swatches and Makeup Look

Hello girls!! Back in march I won a Facebook contest hosted by Sleek Cosmetics and I received a palette for free!!! YAY!!!!! I'm going to review it for you guys.
The palette is the STORM one.
I really like this palette. I'm not saying that because I got it for free, I do think that.

Pluside:
- The price: this palette retails for 4.99 pounds and it is a great price for what you get.

- The colors: 12 colors (9 shimmer and 3 matte). This color are extremely pigmented with a great color payoff. You can do Smokey eyes, Everyday eyes...every look that you come up with because in this particular palette there are all the basics colors you need.
- The packaging: So cute!!! It has a giant mirror and a very good sponge brush.
Downside:

- The shimmer: For my taste some of the eyeshadows are too shimmery, but it's not a big deal if you use a matte color along with the shimmery ones.

Here's are the swatches I made with natural light:





This is a look I did with this palette so you can see how the eyeshadows look :-)

I used the pink eyeshadow all over the lid, the burgundy color in the crease and the black matte color on the outer corner of my eye. Then I used the cream color (second one from the left in the top row) on my browbone. On the lower lashline I used the burgundy color.

Hope you like it!!!

A special thanks to Sleek Cosmetics.
See you Soon!

Review - E.l.f Studio Line Mineral Infused Mascara

Hello everyone!!! So...I tried the E.l.f Studio Line new things and I'm going to review them for you guys. Today I want to talk about the Mineral Infused Mascara.
This Mascara really impressed me. It's cheap and great, it lasts all day and it gives you a natural looking lashes and a reasonable amount of lenght and volume. It has a silicone brush that is clumps free.

The only downside is that the formula is a little wet and tends to smudge when you apply the mascara, like it happened to me in these photos, but If you're careful you should have no problem:


In these photos I have no makeup on and I haven't curl my lashes.

Here's the link where you can buy it: Europe and USA

I hope that was helpful...

See you soon
