Eye Makeup Tutorial: Mystic Blue Night



What I used:
Sleek Storm Palette
Blue Heaven Kajal
Maybelline Colossal Mascara
Models Own Angled Brush
Models Own Blending Brush  



1. Using an angled brush, dip the end into a gold eyeshadow and line the top lash line.
2. Using the same bush, pick up some light blue eyeshadow and create a line above the gold.
3. Continue the previous step using a slightly darker blue.
4. Next take a black eyeshadow- I used the standard matte black that comes in the Sleek Palettes and again create another line above the previous one.
Note: The width of the lines depends on your eye shape, ideally the black should be place somewhat near the crease.
5. Wing out each of the shadows slightly, and line your water line and tight line. 
6. If you want a less drastic look, then blend out and harsh edges to create a more subtle look.
Apply mascara and finish of your face makeup.

And this is the finished look... 




Thanks for reading :)

Pink Rocker

Hi everyone :)

This is my attempt at a dramatic girly makeup look that I created a few months ago. It's extremely bold and not very wearable for a normal day. However I think it would be a beautiful, unique party look. So I hope you all like the look.




Start off by applying your foundation and concealer (I used my usual Revlon Colourstay foundation/concealer)

Apply a base/ or primer onto your eyelids, this will help the colours pop.

Use a flat eyeshadow brush and apply a bright pink matte eyeshadow onto your entire eye lid, extend it into the crease and take some onto your lower lash line. 




Using another flat eyeshadow brush, take Barry M's dazzle dust in 44 Bronze and pat it around the edge of the pink eyeshadow, Blend the two colours together ever so slightly




Using a blending brush, apply a black eyeshadow into the outer "v", again blend the black into the pink.




  Line your waterline and tight line with a black eyeliner, I used Blue Heaven Kajal. Go on to line your top lash line with a black liquid eyeliner (You can also use a felt tip or gel liner, basically anything that will create a solid black line), I used the Beauty UK liquid liner (I hate this product but I don't have the heart to throw it away without using it up). Finally for the eyes, put on your false lashes, I used the false lashes from Wilkinsons- they were only £1 :)




Next apply a pink toned blush onto the apples of your cheeks.

Finally, apply a pink toned lipstick, I used Barry M's lip paint in 145 Punky Pink 



And your done :)

I'm sure that this is not the way she achieves this look but with how my hair is and the equipment I have I find that this methods achieves the best results for me. I don't wear this look a lot since there is a lot of heat involved but that being said, I think it's perfect for those oh-so-special occasions when its o.k to use a bit of extra heat and time on your hair. :)

Sleek Tutorial #4: Natural eyes

This is my next look using the sleek storm pallet. I've done a lot of very dramatic looks and so I thought it was a time to do something a little more natural and wearable. Hope you like it :)


What did I used:
- Revlon colourstay foundation 
- Revlon colourstay concealer 
- Primer
- Helena Rubinstein pink blush 
- Revlon super lustrous lipstick in 105 Persian coral
- Sleek Storm Pallet
- 17 eyeliner pen in soft jet
- Blue Heaven Kajal in black
- Eyelash curler
- Maybelline colossal mascara 
- Eye Shadow brush
- Pencil brush
- Angled brush
- Blending brush
- Blush brush


First apply a foundation and concealer of your choice

Next prime your eyelids- I used a home made primer made for moisturiser and foundation.

Using a flat eye shadow brush, pat the gold eye shadow (1) onto your entire lid.


Using a pencil brush, apply the dark brown eye shadow (2) onto the outer V.


Next pick up some of the matte nude eye shadow (3) onto a blending brush and blend out any harsh edges, also use the same brush to blend the gold and brown into each other. 


With the same dark brown shade, line the outer half of the bottom lash line with an angled brush. 

Line you top lash line; winging it out at the end, and line you're water/tight line.


Curl your lashes and apply two coats of mascara.


Finally, sweep a soft pink blush over cheeks and apply a coral lipstick.
