Alcohol is the answer...

...to the broken Sleek Bohemian Palette that I bought and received last week. I shall not rant about how I still haven't received a replacement from Sleek after being told that I would get one sent out very quickly. Or about how I had to post a comment on their Facebook page to get an answer about returning my broken palette or how I had to email again to find out where my palette was. No no no no no! I shall not rant!

So when my palette arrived it looked like this...

Yeah sucks huh? And just for the record I do like the white case but when it arrives like this and leaves this much of a mess is hella horrible to clean up. Anyhoo I have cleaned it up as best as I could and voila!

Yes this eyeshadow will be the odd one out but I'll love her just the same. Once dried, if I can find a coin to fit exactly I'll press it and then I might be able to get with using this stunning palette.

Side note: I am currently not feeling MUFE HD Powder. Here's the reason why:-

White cast much? I used the smallest bit y'all. Smallest. Hmmm Me no likey. I'ma have to try this some more. Could be the primer I underneath because that already gave me a white cast. (More on that later) We shall see.

Oh! and Sigma make-up brushes? Some are good. And some are ridiculously useless. There is *some* truth to the hype. But not all of it is true. Review coming after Easter.

Barry M pressed pigment palette

I've been collecting Barry M pigments for ages now. I think out of the whole range I only have 3 left to get and I do not like the Glitter dusts....have no clue how to make them work. So one day after I'd been reading up on pressing pigments I decided I would press my Barry M ones. That would mean I would

1. use them all
2. avoid spilling anything
3. see the colours a bit more clearly
4. save on space in my kit when taking it out to clients.

Brilliant! So I bought an empty palette and EZ-press medium from Coastal Scents and proceeded through trial and error to make the palette.

oh.my.days.

trial and error my friends. i think i started off putting in too much of the stuff so the shadows were extra greasy BUT i used a paper towel to press them firstly and that removed a lot of the excess oil. and they seemed to have pressed fine! I'll use the palette today and see how it goes. I am chuffed to bits!!!
