Hello!
I got my limited edition Sleek Circus palette today, and it's super pretty!
So, first the palette, then makeup.
First of all, palette's cardboard box is SWEET:
Palette itself is red (usually palettes are black, except Bohemian was white):
And here's how it looks like from inside:
Closer look on the colors:
Swatches:
First row:
Second row:
Opinion of the colors:
First row:
Red is pink based red, matte, and really pigmented.
Purple is AWESOME. It's super pretty purple (I'm a purple addict), it looks just like MAC Parfait Amour SHOULD look.
Light pink is again matte and pigmented.
White isn't. This is definately the weakest link in this palette. It's supposed to be matte true white, but getting ANYTHING out of it is pain.
Yellow is matte, pigmented. In the swatch pic the true color is the lower part of the swatch, so it's quite clean yellow.
Magenta this is actually a bit shimmy, not much, but it's not matte. Really pretty color and very pigmented.
Second row:
Black is really matte and really dark black. I basicly love Sleek's black shadows, they are BLACK, not dark gray or darl blue or anything.
Lilac isn't that pigmented as some of the others, but definately not as bad as the white one. really pretty pastel color.
Super shiny light green, really pigmented.
Light blue, matte. Pigmented.
Shiny navy blue, super shine as the light green one, and as pigmented too.
Orange, matte, super pigmented, super bright color.
Overall opinion:
Considering that the palette costs under $11 (8,5e), I think it's really good deal.
Even though the white one isn't good, you can still put it on your highlight, and that way you'll have every shadow you need in one palette: Base color, darker color, black, and highlight color.
Here's my today's look done with Sleek Circus (purple, lilac, magenta, black and white):
And my yesterday's look with Fyrinnae Still Breathing::
That's all this time!
I hope mailman brings me LOTS of goodies this week, I'm expecting Fyrinnae, Sugarpill, MUFE, Illamasqua, Toofaced, MAC, NYX.... :3
I know all of them are not gonna ariive this week, but maybe atleast some of them..? :3

Goldilux - keeps you going.
Hi everyone!
I did a real cut crease look today! :D
I know almost half of my looks are someway counted as cut crease, but this one has SHARP cutting :D
I used Sugarpill's Goldilux and Sleek black. And MAC Cloudbound in highlight:
Later in the evening I decided to transform my look into MUG's soda inspired look, and I chose Battery energy drink as my inspiration:
And here's how it turned out:
( I'm sorry about the dark pics, I have a huge headache, so I'm really not in the mood to photoshop them more)

Hello!
My today's makeup was done again with Sugarpill. I almost feel bad for all my other makeup, since I use only Sugarpill :D
But maybe ever tomorrow would be "no Sugarpill" -day?
Anyway, this was made by using Magpie and Burning Heart palette. I know it's really bold, maybe even bolder than my usual looks, but sometimes you gotta go bold (but not bald haha), right?
Paired with Gosh Darling on lips. I tried to keep everything else minimal, since eyes were that dark:
Then I was truly inspired by the new blog I found: http://matthewlx.blogspot.com/ and especially this post.
I've always loved drag makeup, and I think I would give my left kidney to be as artistic in makeup that some of the drag artist are.
Anyway, I did my own (quite horrible and QUICK) drag look:
I used Sleek Safari palette, and NYX Glitterati Glitter palette, which unfortunately made my shadows to crease big time in the end.
But anyway:
And by the way, I'm now officially part of the MakeupGeek team! I'm the Creative Director, and for now on I'll be answering the makeup advice emails :)
I'm really having a hard time to believe, that year ago I was literally nobody in the makeup world (and in internet too). Now I have over thousand readers in my blog, I'm designing shadows for MSCHIC, and I'm working in MakeupGeek, place where all this started :D
Just how lucky I am? :D

(I'm quite amazed, I didn't cover my brows, the brow is quite excatly where it belongs to :D I guess I really do have big lids!)
(But I did overline my lips. BIG time.)
