Feel Good Sleek and ELF Fun

Apologies as what you are about to see are some photos of a fabulous extreme bluey oceany look taken with a not so fabulous iPhone camera due to lack of another camera.

I got bored one day and thought hey, lets muck around with what I've got, so I whipped out my Sleek i-Divine Original palette and looked to see what colours were there which I may not normally use. This is mainly blues, as I have brown eyes so it doesn't always work well.

I decided to vamp it up with some dark eyeliner and false lashes as well as all out shimmer and glitter.




Here are the products I used, specifically the main 3 Sleek colours used:

















The deep blue outlined above went on first (after using my ELF primer of course) all over the lid and blended out at the crease. This was topped over with a Barry M Dazzle Dust number 65, a kind of blue/green iridescent colour. The sleek blue went on the lower lash line along with the purple and my ELF Studio liner/shadow stick. The Sleek green went just above my crease. I did winged eyeliner using ELF Studio cream eyeliner black and also L'Oreal Superliner Carbon Gloss. Finished off with Maybelline Falsies Mascara and a pair of Eylure lashes. Cheeks got a brush of ELF warm bronzer and a bright pink blush from the large ELF collection. I also used this blush to set my ELF Mineral Lipstick in Nicely Nude with ELF Hypershine Lipgloss in Fairy. Foundation was L'Oreal Matte Morphose set with ELF Mineral Booster and ELF Studio unereye highlighter and concealer set with Complexion Perfection.


Also sorry that I may have forgotten to smile!!! I was getting very fed up that I couldn't take a close up photo to show off all the shimmer and blueyness, ah well.

My boyfriend didn't like it, said the blue didn't suit me :o( ho hum, I liked it and although some may say this is not a wearable look.. well I so would again, I like extreme!!!!

Sleek from www.sleekmakeup.com, ELF from www.eyeslipsface.co.uk.

Both are very affordable brands of makeup, Sleek also in Superdrug, ELF online only.



NB. I am not affiliated with either company and all items* were bought with my own pennies. All opinions are my own.
(*except ELF Studio Cream Eyeliner sent for free to try out - see earlier blog, I'd have bought it anyway!!)

My first blog!


So here it is at last, my first blog! It's primarily a review of the Elf Studio Cream Eyeliner, and have compared it to my L'Oreal Superliner. Elf on the left, L'Oreal on the right.




The lovely folks at Elf sent me their brand new Cream Eyeliner to try out and I have to say I love it.

I got it in black, and applied it with the Elf Studio Small Smudge Brush. I am a big fan of winged eyeliner, my eyelids are trying to fly everyday with one colour or another (thanks to Studio Liner Sealer - fab product btw), so here is a comparison between Elf and my much beloved L'Oreal Superliner Carbon Gloss.



Bearing in mind this was done in wee hours, it was so easy to apply and work with, highly expect you'd be able to create more defined lines, but main difference is the difference in the depth of colour. I will most definitely be using the Elf in the daytime as it isn't as dark a black so gives a more subtle look, is super long-lasting without budging and is even fab to use on your lower lashline, dare I say...the waterline!!

The Studio Cream Eyeliner is available from http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~179.htm in four colours Black, Midnight, Coffee and Ivory. You get a lot of product at the bargain price of £3.50!!
