Review: Sleek Pout Paint - Pin Up

Hey beautiful people!!

As the name suggests, Red Lips are my thing in a big way! I love how effortlessly glam they are and how they can brighten your complexion, make you look younger yet more sophisticated and give you a boost in confidence! 

So when my Amazon order arrived on the 2nd, I was delighted to get my greedy little mitts on the Sleek Make Up Pout Paint in the glorious shade "Pin Up" a very retro red which I feel has a nice bluey-pink undertone.

Pout Paint, as the name suggests are very highly pigmented and easy to work with. The smallest little dab is all you need to make your lips look like they were plucked straight off a classic 50's poster. Absolutely effortless and very chic! It's no harder to carry a tube of Pout Paint and a lip brush than it is to carry a lipstick and a liner. 

I found it lasted well though eating was off the cards drinking did not alter the appearance of my lippie at all. It stood up to reapplication over the top of what was already there and was moisturising and glossy. Not one fault with the formula!

My one issue with it was I felt it bled outside of my lip line which is easily fixed with a swipe of a liner such as Essence Pinky Red or Isa Dora transparent Lip Fix. Certainly not fault enough for me to poo-poo the many positive attributes it has. 

At €5 a pop off Amazon, I will most certainly be getting more of these gorgeous babies in my life - and so should you!!

Review - Wet N Wild Comfort Zone Palette

Normally I don't open my reviews with "You need this in your life...", but you absolutely need the following palette in your life!!

The palette in question is the Wet N Wild Petal Pusher palette. 2 columns of 4 complementary shades of buttery soft, blendable and seriously pigmented shadows. Oh dear lord above, this is any budget beauty lovers dream, if you ask me!

For 6.99 in every Dunnes Stores in the country, you can have this beauty. Quality-wise, it's up there with Urban Decay and Inglot, easily. I reckon Wet N Wild have the likes of Sleek and Essence quaking in their shoes.

The best thing about these palettes is, if like myself you can be a bit simple-minded in the mornings and don't work on 100% of your mental capacity 'til after that third latte, the shades have their intended place of usage embedded into their pan. Life made very easy indeed!

This palette is absolutely perfect not only for day to day wear but also is equally suitable for a night time look. You won't be needing the Naked 3 with this little beauty!!

Trust me when I say this: You need this in your life. Fair warning though, it took me 5 trips to 4 different Dunnes to lay hands on one. You may be in for a bit of a search until the lust dies down.
