Sleek "Storm" palette Face of the Day...

Hi everyone,
Today I decided to do a Look using my beloved "Storm" palette from Sleekmakeup (I bought mine on eBay because I am not from UK). I have been using it almost everyday, this palette is perfect it has all the color you need for a nice day look but also some darkest shades for the sexiest smokey eyes....I went for Natural today.

Face: Revlon colorstay foundation in Sand Beige 180, MAC select Moisturecover concealer in NC15
Eyes: 3 colors from the Storm palette for the eyeshadows, Urban Decay eyeliner in Perversion, L'oreal Voluminous mascara
Cheeks: MAC Msf in Gold deposit.
Lips: Chanel lipstick in Maldives
Top: h&m


The Sleek makeup palette in "Storm"

I love the packaging, and love the huge mirror inside.

Close-up on the eyes....(I know my lashes look a bit crazy on this picture, I will blame lash growth products lol)

For this look I used the second and the last two eyeshadows from the top row...
The texture is very smooth and the pigmentation is amazing, see swatches...



While we are talking about eyeshadows we all know that using a good base or primer is necessary to achieve a nice look, I love my primer potion from Urban Decay but when I saw a $1 eyeshadow primer on eyeslipsface.com I didn't hesitate and gave it a try. I am glad I did! It works AMAZING to me it does the job perfectly. (I don't have very oily lids so I don't guarantee this will work for everyone, but it does for me )

The texture is a bit thinner than the UD primer potion...

Hope everyone has a nice (and short) week.
Love,
Chloe.

"My new Camera is finally here" post of the day...

Hello Everyone,
I am so happy, I finally got my Canon 1000D in the mail Friday (yeah). I bought a bridge back in January (Lumix FZ38) but wasn't very happy with the results and the picture quality I needed something better, that's why right after selling my Lumix on eBay I bought a new DSLR on Amazon...

Canon 1000D + kit lens EF-S 18-55 IS

I already love it...

I am learning how to use this camera and I am not proud of the 2 following pics. Bad.


Fews days ago I also received my Purple Macbook Pro case (eBay) I love it...

...It came with a nice purple/pink Keyboard cover...

I will end this very random post, showing you my new favorite Fragrance, L'impératrice by D&G it smells so good fruity and fresh but very unique. I can't stop smelling myself...

I hope everyone has a nice Sunday.
Chloé.

Look of the Day wearing kkcenterhk Lashes...

Hi ladies ,
Hope everyone is doing good. I was contacted by Maggie from KKcenterHk to review their lashes. If I accepted (I don't accept everything just because it's free!) it's because, the lashes were super cheap, the variety was huge and finding inexpensive lashes in France is close to impossible...

I picked 4 styles ( 2 styles were sold out so I had to pick 2 others)

Lashes # A013 10 pairs for $2,80. I find these lashes a bit too thick and not very confortable. They look very nice on though.

Wearing the A013 Lashes, They do not look that shiny in real life.

Lashes # A222 10 pairs for $8,21. I love them they are super thin and very natura looking.

Lashes # A218 10 pairs for $10,94. My favorites, because they are not too natutals not too dramatic I really like them.

If you are looking for inexpensive lashes don't hesitate their price is great the quality is good (some are better than others though) and shipping was fast. I am pretty sure that I'll get my false eyelashes from them in the future.

Face: Revlon Colorstay fondation for dry skin in Sand beige 180.
Eyes: e.l.f Brightening Eye Color palette in Drama - Es A013 false lashes - Nyx jumbo eye pencil in Black bean - e.l.f eyebrow kit in dark
Cheeks: MAC msf in Gold deposit
Lips: MAC Myth lipstick - Victoria's secret lipgloss in Wet
Nails: (first I apologize for my nails looking that bad lol) e.l.f nail polish in Metal madness (love this stuff).


Friday my worst nightmare happened; My beloved Dell died. I wanted to cry. Since my laptop was contaminated with 345,657 viruses I decided to go get a MAC. I bought the Macbook Pro and I am already loving it. Say Hi to my New Baby.

Bisous,
Chloé.
