Sleek Face Contour Kit : Review

Hello dolls! Today's post will be on a review. Now, who doesn't love a review on products especially makeups? *grins. Okay, I have had this product for quite some time and I have also used it for couple of times. The product that I'm going to review today is the Face Contour Kit by Sleek Makeup in Light 884. I have always wanted a face contour kit and when I saw this on Luxola, I knew I had to get it. I believe this kit is retailed at myr54 ish but I got it when it was on sale. :)

Sleek products are all so sleek looking. Quite a genius for using Sleek as their brand name aite? Just like their other palettes, this contour kit has nothing unusual design to it. It comes in all black case with Sleek Makeup printed on it. All black except for the ingredients of the product at the back of the case, those are in white fonts. I have nothing against the packaging, love love love it! Except that it gets stained easily but that doesn't matter, it doesn't bother me that much. This product weighs 14g and I'm not pretty sure whether that's a lot of product or what but to me, it is. Considering that I don't go around every day contouring my face, I believe this will last me a long time. :)

This kit has two parts to it. The contouring powder and the highlighting powder. I got myself the lightest kit of this product since I have fair skin. I was contemplating whether to get the Light or Medium kit but I ended up with the Light 884. This kit also comes with a mirror just like the usual compact powder! That's a bonus point for Sleek Makeup! Tho I hardly use the mirror but one can never tell when one needs a mirror, right? :) It doesn't come with any applicator but that's cool because I use my Real Techniques's Contouring brush to apply this!

Now, onto the main thing which is the product itself. The contouring powder has matte finish to it and yes I laaavvv it! I use this to contour my cheeks, nose and sometimes as the transition color when I do my eye makeup. The highlighting powder has shimmery finish to it. But then again, of course it does since that's what highlighting powder needs to do. I also use the highlighting powder to highlight the inner corner of my eyes and under my brow bones apart from the usual task which is to highlight your cheeks and the bridge of your nose! I have no complaints so far regarding this face contour kit!

With flash on!

Without flash!

Dolls, I would not say this is the best face contour kit in town but for an affordable product, it does great job so far! I believe you cannot get this in any drugstore or Sephora. You can get it from Luxola.com Any purchase above myr40 is free postage! Here are some photos on the product and swatches of it!

Until next post, stay tuned beauties!

Makeup Brushes : Real Techniques & Zoeva

Heyy dolls! How y'all doing? Wherever you are, I hope y'all are doing fabulously great! So today.. Errr I forgot what I wanted to say. Ahh yes. Makeup brushes! What is makeup without its essential tool? I mean, of course. When I first started with makeup, my fingers were the only tools or the applicators that came with the makeup haha. Now that I have moved a phase up which means I am no longer a beginner in the makeup world, I need a proper set of tools.

I would say I have a small size of makeup brushes collection. It is small if I were to compare it to other beauty bloggers out there. I have always been collecting single brushes even until now. Until recently, or to be precised last year, I started to go for a complete set of makeup brushes from a certain brand. For a start, I got myself the Core Collection from Real Techniques and I got this set from Luxola. This brand has been a rave among the beauty bloggers out there. Everyone was talking about it and I knew I had to get one set of it. Core Collection consists of four brushes and it comes in a pouch which is to me very convenient! You can even make 'em stand on its own which is uh uh super coolss. The four brushes are 2 foundation brushes, 1 concealer brush and 1 contouring brush. It has labels to it but you can always do whatever you want with the brush, right ladies? For example, the concealer brush. I don't use it for concealer. I think it's too small and it'd take a lot of time for me to conceal those flawwsss with a small brush. Instead, I use it for lipstick. So it is my lip brush now. Work with everything that you have ladies!

As for the Zoeva brushes, I got myself 3 brushes for eye makeups. I got them from Luxola and they were having sale at that time. The three brushes that I got are the 230 Luxe Pencil, 226 Smudger and 229 Eye Finish. My personal favourite has to be the 230 Luxe Pencil! And they all have their own personal pouch which is a bonus point for Zoeva! I am still very happy with the brushes that I got and I plan to get more from Zoeva line! Zoeva owns one of the finest makeup brushes and it is also considered as one of the most affordable makeup brushes line. I will try to do a separate blog posts on what I think of these two brands, okay dolls?

So dolls, y'all want my thoughts on these brushes? Let me know alright!

Until next post, stay tuned beauties!
