Palette Appreciation- Sleek "Lagoon"

Yes, I figured it was time to give another palette some attention. The "Lagoon" palette from Sleek was another gift I received from Ash from The Beauty Collection as part of a Blogger Kris Kringle. This was one of the palettes I had been lusting after from the UK online store. Great products, affordable prices!


Look at those gorgeous shades, all swatched on bare skin using my finger.

I must say that the shimmery shades swatch beautifully. The mattes are not chalky. I found the eye shadows are good to use, easy to apply and blend well. Let's check out some looks that I created using this beautiful palette.
The first shade I wanted to try on my lids was the shimmery neutral colour. I added a purple crease for a little fun.


I used the pale pink in the inner lid, then the coral matte in the centre. It turned out more pink than coral. 






More of a softer look here with the lilac and then I used that matte purple to line.

Isn't that aqua so pretty!


This is one of my favourite eye looks. The silver and charcoal makes for such a glam eotd.


Of course my palette appreciation post wouldn't be complete without a colourful look!

Just like the other Sleek palettes I have, "Lagoon" certainly didn't disappoint. The hardest part was deciding what colours to use!

Do you have any Sleek products in your collection?

    I love Sleek too. I've got Garden of Eden, Vintage Romance & Oh So Special. I love your silver look. Metallic is so in at the moment. Your coloured look is great too. Yellow (or pale pink) are my go-tos for the inner lid. You've got a lot of looks to still try with this palette.
    Love it!

    I have those palettes as well. They're so great for the price, aren't they! You're right, I can still do so many more eye looks with this palette :)

    Sleek palettes are so pretty! I really should get more use out of the one palette I have by them.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
