New Product Alert - Sleek Solstice Highlighting Palette

If you are subscribed to my Youtube channel, then you would know I am a sucker for highlighters and this palette is right up my street.

Sleek launched a highlighter palette late last year, which went down a storm. Now they have created a brand new palette with new shades ready for the Christmas period. This palette comes in a nice, pretty rose gold packaging, which is the 'in thing' at the moment. I think making the  packaging a rose gold colour makes the palette extra special and makes it look more higher end than it is.
Within the palette itself, it comes with a mirror that covers one side and a brush to apply the product with. I usually don’t bother with the brushes that come with the palettes due to the brush being a bit crap and worthless. But if you are travelling, then it is an ok make-up tool to have. The palette comes with four highlighters that are all different colours that can be used in different areas of the face and body. Two of the four highlighters are baked powders, one is a shimmer powder and the last one is a cream formula. So you do get a good variety of textures and colours in this palette. The top two highlighters are Ecliptic which is a champagne cream and Hemisphere which is a pink/purple baked highlighter. The bottom two are subsolar which is a yellow shimmer powder and Equinox is a bronze baked powder. Apparently Equinox is a dupe for the Becca highlighter in champagne pop, but is a lot affordable and easy to get in the UK.
I do like how there are different colours of highlighter, with different formulas to suit everyone's needs. Sleek claims this palette to enhance the complexion with a radiant glow with a metallic finish that gives a sheen to the skin. They also say these highlighters can be used on all skin tones and can be used for the skin and body.


This is definitely on my make-up wishlist as I love Sleek products and I love highlighters, so I need a trip to Superdrug to find it.


If you want to buy the Sleek Solstice Highlighting palette, it is out now and available from Sleek website, Superdrug and Boots. The palette is a part of the permanent line and costs £9.99.

Upcoming Make-up Products For The Next Few Months

So i did one of these type of posts a long time ago and i thought i might as well do another one. These will be the upcoming make-up products that which be launching in the UK in the next couple of months. Some will be high brand and some wont be. These are the products that will be coming out very soon -

Topshop will be launching another glitter nail polishes in their make-up range. They do have a collection of glitter nail polishes (only 3) but they have never done a purple glitter nail polishes before. This is all going to change on the 21st March 2012 when they are going to be releasing a new colour called razzmatazz and razzmatazz will be a purple glitter top coat which can be used over other nail polishes.

Benefit has been releasing a lot of brand new products lately and they still keep on coming. The next product coming out is a liquid bronze highlighter. This is a first for benefit and it will join the liquid highlighter collection they have already which is highbeam and moonbeam. Sunbeam will be launched in June which will be ready for the summer and will compliments all skin tones. This can be mixed with moisturiser or foundation to make it less pigmented and can be used as an all over warm glow ready for the summer.

Collection 2000 are bringing out a new mascara called Multiplier mascara( Love the name). The multiplier has been developed to bring 14 times more volume to the lashes to create a wide-eyed look. The mascara is priced at £4.99 and is available at superdrug and boots stores nationwide on March 17 2012.

Last up is a limited edition collection by Boots No7 for the summer. The collection has been created by lisa eldridge and is called the Summer of dreams collection. I also love this name, it gives a nice feel to the collection and already interests me. The collection includes a bronzer (£13), glitter top coats in gold and silver (£8 each) a set of four eye crayons in Metallic Bronze, Hazy, Green, Cornflour Blue and Metallic Grey(£13) and lastly a Nourishing Lip shine glosses in Pink and Peach (£10.50 each). All these products sounds interesting and i might have to buy the bronzer and the glitter top coats.
