Holy Grail Beautyy . . .

I have been using this eyebrow pencil by Rimmel for so long I actually don't know how long!
I use Hazel 002 as I am fair with blonde hair and my eyebrows are naturally platinum blonde.  This is the perfect color for blondes, redheads and light brunettes.  This is a holy grail product for me.

Its the perfect consistency not too hard where it drags the skin, and not too soft that its messy.
One thing I learned was that it applies far better when the skin is dry of any moisture.  I have to do my eyebrows first and then apply moisturiser, primer, sunscreen and any powder afterwards as it will not apply with moisturiser etc on your eyebrow.

• Very cheap
• Perfect consistency
• Easy to use
• Need to sharpen
• Three colors to choose from Black/Brown, Hazel, Dark Brown

 I found Sleek MakeUP at one of the local Target stores in Perth.  There was a little display containing a variety of their products but not the entire range.  A lot of the products had been purchased which is a good sign! Most of the eyeshadow palettes in more nude colors were gone but I liked Vintage Romance so I picked this to buy.  Above is a photo from the Sleek MakeUP website showing the colors in the palette.

Here is a swatch shot of the colors on my arm that follows the shades in their sequence starting with the top left shade.  Unfortunately I lost the plastic insert which tells you the name of the colors.  So starting off with the silver shade here is the swatches.



 The colors look pretty good I would say on my skin.  I applied them on my eye to see how they translated on the eye with no primer.  Straight off I can say that the light colors are far more pigmented than the others.  They are very bright and iridescent and buildable.  They look good in the corner of the eye and as a highlight on the eye under the brow.
The purple/pink shades are not equal to the iridescent shades.  They are a little bit sheer when applied on top of an ivory shade which I used as a base.  Maybe this is because two out of the three pink/purples are iridescent.

• Applies very easily
• Inexpensive
• Good for beginners
• Can be used wet
• No smell
• Suitable for vegans and vegetarians

 My favourite shade that I remembered from the plastic cover is Propose in Prague, which is a terracotta matte shade. 

Overall I think this is a great palette to experiment with colors and mix with the nudes, browns etc that we already own.  The best shades in terms of pigment are the iridescent, metallic shades.  The terracotta shade is also great.  I would definitely recommend to buy and play with.

I wish I had not bought this lipstick for two reasons.  I loved the colour when I swatched it at the shop but when on my lips which are quite pigmented I guess, the colour must be at least one to two shades lighter than my lips because the colour was visible but in a too light way.  Just ever so lightly chalky.  The appearance is matte but this lipstick does not wear like a true matte lipstick purely by definition.  It came off very quickly when talking, eating and drinking.

What is good is the following:

• Smooth application and does not dry lips whatsoever
• Contains Vitamin E and Shea Butter 
• Lots of lovely shades!
• Good everyday lipstick in this colour

It is too expensive for what it is, in Australia this cost $28.  If this was a matte lipstick in look and wear and a slightly different colour mauve then I would love it! And ignore the price.  This does not put me off the brand whatsoever as I love other items in their range.  Such as the Eyeshadow Trios which I must write a review on as I love them.
