FOTD: New To Town

Hello Dolls! For the first time in what seems like a month I decided to do my makeup all out. It's my first full day in Connecticut and since I'm going out with some friends tonight I decided to do something a little dark so I ended up with a "sandwich" smokey eye meaning one color on the inner and outer lid and another in the centre.  I used all Glamour Doll Eyes for this eye look.

FOTD: Vegas Glitter

Hey dolls! Long time no see. I've been a bit MIA this past week, I know. I've been getting ready for a big move, and life is just catching up to me. I finally had time to do something with my face today, and decided to go all out. I received my first order of Lit Cosmetics Glitter in the mail yesterday and thought I'd take it out for a test run today. I did this look today, inspired by the dying leaves on the trees. Suprisingly that's happening in Texas, you know because it's the first day of December and it's still 72 degrees Fahrenheit. -_-

Sleek Haul and Tell

Hello Dolls! 
For almost a year now I have been trying to get my hands on some Sleek makeup. Sleek is a British cosmetics line that carries eyeshadow palettes, blushes, lip paints, etc. etc. I was actually introduced to this brand by the Pixiwoo sisters on YouTube.  I have found it difficult to get my hands on their products without resorting to Ebay, and a couple of weeks ago I found out that they finally launched international shipping to their site! There are palettes on their site that are not available for US and Canada shoppers due to FDA regulations. (Honestly, if they're good for their eyes why not ours? Anyways..) 
These are the Acid, Ultra Matte V1, Ultra Matte V2, Glory and Snapshot palettes. (Of course, the palettes I wanted.
You may think that shipping was an arm and a leg but I only paid around $5 for shipping and my purchase came out to less than $50 all together! 
I will be linking the Sleek site down below, and I hope you guys enjoy!!


Sunset Palette
The Sunset Palette is a very tropical colored palette. At $10 you get 12 amazingly pigmented eyeshadows at 1.1 of product each.  It comes in Sleeks popular black, sleek (hehe) packaging.  All twelve shadows, except the matte black that comes in every Sleek palette, are very shimmery and slightly frosted. They are all incredibly velvety soft, and incredibly pigmented even the lightest of colors. These colors are very blendable, and easy to work with. The only downfall in this palette is that there is not enough variation between matte and shimmery colors.
