Sleek Acid i Divine Palette Look #2

Firstly, I used Mac Painterly Paint Pot, all over my lids as a base.

I then applied the raspberry colour from the Sleek Acid i Divine Palette and mixed it with a little 'Sin' from the Urban Decay Naked Palette, to make it more iridescent. 

I then applied, the true purple colour from the Sleek Palette and used a Lauren Luke Pencil brush to apply it on the lower lash line.

Next, I chose the dark grey form the Sleek Palette and used a blending brush to apply it to the outer corner of the eye and into the crease.

I then lined my lids with Collection 2000 Extreme Felt Tip Liner in Black. I also applied Bourjois Volume Fast and Perfect Mascara in Black.

The finished look!

Hi Beautifuls!

Since I love the Sleek Acid i Divine Palette so much, I thought i would make use of all the colours and do a little Acid Series of makeup looks! So.. this is number two! I hope you like it :)

Hey Guys!

I recently bought a Sleek palette, i've been wanting one for ages, so I thought I would finally get one. I thought it would be wise to try out a neutral colour palette first, as it was my first Sleek Palette. But, I have loads of neutral colour palette, from high end like MAC or just random neutral eyeshadows. So, I thought I would be a bit daring and go for one of the most wild palettes they stock, the Acid i Divine Palette! 

When it arrived in the post I was very excited to see how pigmented the colours were, and i was very surprise, they are intensely pigmented!

I was watching a tutorial, from the youtuber JulieG713 and got inspired by her Intense Blue Shock makeup tutorial, and realised I had the same colours in my new Sleek Palette so I give it a go! It's not something I would often wear on my eyes daily, but I suppose it would be fun for a night out! Just experimenting shall we say!

Hope you like this Post, and I will definalty be checking out some of the other palettes because I am very impressed with this palette!

Lauren Luke 8 Brush Set...

A personally signed letter, signed by Miss Lauren Luke herself, which i think really shows her appreciation :)

Lauren's youtube channel - Panacea81 (Check it out, if you haven't already that is!)

In order from Left to Right...

Large Powder Brush, Foundation Brush, Flat Contour Brush, Blending Eyeshadow Brush, Tapered Blending Brush, Pencil Brush, Flat Eyeshadow Brush. Angled Eyeliner Brush.

My three favourites out of the bunch! The reasons why I love these are because... The Large Powder Brush is so big you could bronze all over you face with it, and it also has a slight flat edge to it, which is perfect for contouring the cheeks. The next favourite is the Tapered Blending Brush as it blends the eyeshadow into the crease so well and the bristles are so soft to the touch! Lastly, is the Pencil Brush, as again, it works the product so well into the crease and the outer corner to give some FABULOUS definition!

Hey Abbie's Beauty's!

I received my Lauren Luke Brushes this morning in the post. I was so excited to open them when they arrived, as I had been waiting over a week to receive them, which was explained when I placed my order, due to the busy christmas period.

Firstly, I think the quality of the brushes where amazing, the handle feels sturdy and strong. I love the rose gold connector of the brush, its good quality and so pretty too! The bristles of the brushes are synthetic, and they feel so soft on the skin and make application GREAT! 

I am overall very happy with my new brushes and the value for money is awsome. I can't wait to do some looks with them all!
