Sleek Med 1 Look - Purple, Pink, Blue and Green

Hiya everyone, so i did this eye make-up tutorial on youtube not so long ago, and i thought i might as well write one as a post as well with pictures. This eye make-up look is really easy to do and all you need is either the sleek Med palette or any purple, pink, blue and green eyeshadows. I used sigma brushes to apply the eyeshadows but you can use any brushes because they all do the same thing. All you need are the eyeshadows, brushes, primer and a mirror to complete this look.



Ok, so the first thing you need to do is too prime your eyelids. This will keep the eyeshadow on your eyelids all day and will make the colours pop. I used the Urban Decay primer potion in orginal. Then i took the sigma short shader brush and applied the purple all over my lids. The purple is called Lotus Flower.


After i applied Lotus flower. I then took a small brush (Unbranded) and took the Mid toned blue from the palette and applied it from the middle to the outer corner of my eyelids. The blue colour is called Humming Bird. Take any blending brush. I used the revlon contour brush and blended out any harsh lines between the purple and the blue colours.


Then take a Hot pink colour and apply this to the outer v and to the crease. Be sure not to go up to far from the outer v. I applied this Hot pink with the sigma E25 but you can use any blending brush you have. The hot pink is called Magenta Madness (Love the names of these eyeshadows).


Take another blending brush but it has to be a clean one. I took the Sigma E35 and applied a green colour into the crease next to the pink. The green is called Kiwi Zest. Take the same blending brush you used to blend the blue and the purple and blend the pink and green together. Then go over the whole eye to make sure their is no harsh lines.

Then take a white/cream colour eyeshadow and apply this under the brow bone. I used my fingers but you can use a brush if you wanted to.

Apply eyeliner and mascara to complete the eye make-up. Then i took the sigma F10 to apply the blush. I used a really hot pink blush from sleek called santorini and applied it to my cheeks. Then to complete the whole look, i used the pout polish by sleek called Monte Carlo which is also another hot pink colour.

 It is pretty simple to do and you can use any type of eyeshadows, blush etc to complete your look. I hope i explained it alright, if not then i will leave a link on the video i did for this look on my youtube channel. I hope you found this useful and there will be plenty of more posts coming your way very soon.

Waiting for Sigma Brushes!!

Hiya everyone, so as you can see by the title of this post, that i am waiting for a set of sigma brushes to arrive at my house. Sigma is apparently very good for their brushes, so i ordered a set of them. However i did not buy them, i got them for free!

Well sort of free. There is this website called Luuux. Basically luuux is a like a blog website. But when you post a blog on the website you gain luuuxs. You get 7 luuux per post but you can get more luuux by ratng, commenting etc. When you gained enough points you can spend them in their shop. They have ipads, new ipod touchs and new ipod nanos. They have a mixture of items for both women and men.

In their shop they have two sets of sigma brushes. One is called Sigma Premium Professional Kit with Brush Roll. The other one is called sigma complete kit or something like that . The premium one costs 7,440 luuuxs and the other one costs like 5,000 luuuxs. I had enough to get the premium one. I ordered it about two weeks and the first week it said that the payment was received. After a week the order status said that it was processing. Meaning that the people are looking at how i got those points, then it said completed which means that everything is fine and it is being shipped out to the UK.

It has been a week after that now, i really really want them because i have got some make-up looks i am wanting to try out but i do not want to use my old crap brushes. These looks are going to be on my youtube channel in the future. I am really impatient and want them now.
This picture is the brushes i will hopefully will be getting very soon :)

And luuux is free to sign up and i am getting the sigma brushes for free, so i do recommend anyone who wants free sigma brushes to go onto luuux. However it does take a long time to get the points up. Took me 3 months to get them points but it will be worth it.
