Sleek Face Form Palette & Blush by 3 Palette
January 15, 2013
Hello everyone, I hope you all having a nice day what with all this lovely weather we are having.. oh I joke, it couldn't be any colder if it tried. I received a couple of Newlook gift cards for christmas and I had such a hard time trying to find things to purchase, Newlook has kind of gone down in my books recently but that aside I noticed on the website that they had a beauty section and seeing that they stocked a small range of Sleek products instantly brightened my mood. So I ordered the Face Form Contour and Blush Palette and the Blush by 3 Palette and I thought i'd share my thoughts with you guys so far!
L-R: Contour, Highlight, Blush Face Form Palette 'Light' - Sleek Makeup (£10) |
L-R: Crochet, Guipure, Chantilly. Blush by 3 Palette 'Lace' - Sleek Makeup (£10) |
♥ Face Form Contour and Blush Palette: This palette is three in one palette, which contains a contour powder which is a light brown shade perfect for adding definition to the contour areas of your face, a highlighting shimmer powder which is an off white/pink shimmery shade which adds a light shimmer to your skin and attracts the light to your skin and a blush shimmer powder which is a rose pink shimmer shade, different from your ordinary matte blush but again adds a little shimmer to the skin. I love this palette and I cannot speak highly enough of it, it is perfect for adding definition to my face and brings out my cheek bones really well. Also as it contains three products in this one palette it is certainly better value for your money than buying three different powders.
♥ Blush by 3 Palette: This palette again is a three in one palette containing three different blush shades (which unfortunately didn't capture very well in the pictures) the first shade (L-R) in a pigmented orange which would work well for a sun kissed look, the second shade in a shimmer rose pink shade which is very similar to the blush in the contour palette which adds some really nice shimmer to the face and the third shade is a very pigmented pink blush which brightens up the skin and adds a nice amount of pink to the apples of your cheeks. This palette is also another great palette as it contains three different blush shades which I tend to mix together by using them all together which looks really nice and adds some colour to my face.
If you're looking for an affordable option to purchasing several different blushes and face powders I would definitely recommend these two palettes as they are available in different shades for different skin tones and are so affordable you wouldn't regret it.
I hope you all liked my little reviews on these two products and I will see you guys in my next post :)

I've recently bought the blush by three in Pink Sprint - I am really enjoying the orange-y shades though, think they may be next on the hit list!
