SLEEK HIGHLIGHTING PALETTE IN SOLSTICE REVIEW

Today Im reviewing Sleek's highlighting palette in Solstice. Firstly, I apologise for not posting for a few weeks I have just been so busy with school but I have finished now until September (Which is my last year) so Im hoping to be posting AT LEAST twice a week.

Anyway, I have been wanting to buy this palette for so long but Boots\Superdrug only ever has the palette in the shade 'Precious Metals' which consists of mainly, if not all, cream's; which I don't particularly like because I feel that cream's remove my foundation underneath.

 

This palette consists of two baked powders: A pinkey shade and a rose gold shade, one cream formula, a beige shade and one powder which is a cream shade. I think I originally liked this palette because of the pinkey shade which is quite unusual to find for a high street highlighter. The quality of the powders I think are very comparable to the BECCA highlighters and for £9.99 that's very impressive. I find the highlighters last on my skin for quite long, so I basically cannot find anything wrong with this palette and it is definitely worth the money!

 

Here are a swatches of the four highlighters,

Hope you enjoyed this post and it helps you into whether you want to buy this palette or not, Thankyou for reading!

 

SKINCARE ROUTINE!

Today I'm going through my morning and evening skincare routines. I always watch skincare routines but a lot of skincare only works for specific skin types, also people want different things from their products. I would say I have dry to normal  sensitive skin. I don't suffer with acne, just the occasional breakout. Generally I choose products to help with uneven skin tone. 

My morning and evening skincare routine is very similar but I will state If I do anything different.

In the morning I begin with washing my face to remove any oil from the night before and to cleanse my face. To do this I use my Simple Kind To Skin vital vitamin Foaming Cleanser £4.49, I stopped using this for a few months and tried the Neutrogena Visibly Clear Grapefruit facial wash but while I used it I had break outs, I had not been using any different products so I know this was causing it, when I went back to  the Simple Cleanser my skin improved.

  After that I will use toner,  I have only just started using toner but I think It has already made a difference. I am using the Simple soothing toner £3.29,

After I cleanse and tone I will moisturise. To do this I use my Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion £8.99, I have probably gone through about 2 or 3 of these, If ever I don't use this my skin goes very dry and tight. It is a very thin moisturiser so If you like a thicker moisturiser in the morning this may not suit you.

 So that's all I will do in the morning before I begin to put my makeup on.

In the evening I repeat the same process but first I take my makeup off using two products. Firstly I use my Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser to remove my face makeup I do this twice and take it off using cotton pads. To remove my eye makeup I use the Clinique Take the day off balm which I have been using for years, I must have gone through up to six tubs! I find it doesn't irritate my eyes and it lasts for ages. Sometimes some of my makeup is still not completely off, so if it isn't I will go in with a cotton bud and the Simple eye makeup remover which usually removes any last trace of mascara.

I strongly advice you to try out at least a few of these products as I think they're all amazing. As well as this, once a week I exfoliate my face, I use the Clinique exfoliating scrub, it is advised to only be used once a week. . Also if I want to use a face mask I will use the No7 Beautiful Skin Energising Mask.
