Sleek i-Divine Palettes

After learning of this brand called Sleek some years ago, I have been trying to get my hands on their wonderful well pigmented, vivid colored and cheap eye palettes. Thanks to Luxola , I am able to enjoy products from Sleek without having to go through all the hassle of shipping it from UK. I first started out my collection with the Au Naturel palette, after which I went on to buy the Oh So Special from some blog sale. Just within a year, my Sleek eye palette collection grew and so I would like to share some swatches and thoughts of the palettes.

Currently to celebrate the shop's opening, there is a storewide 30% discount. Yes, you read me correctly. It's STOREWIDE! With such fabulous discount, of course I had to get something :) So here's my mini loot: Mini haul First up we have the cotton wool (Org price. S$6.90) which I bought just to top the total bill up to $40 in order to get two free face mask. Cotton Wool Next we have a cherry lip gel patch (Org Price. S$4.90). It's a lip-shaped mask for the lips. So cute isn't it? I just had to try it out. Cherry Lip Gel Patch Lip-shaped Up next is a wash off yogurt mask pack called I Need You, Yogurt (Org Price. S$6.90). It has 4 flavours in a set, Strawberry, Kiwi, Apple and Peach, meant for 4 times usage. From past experience of the similar mask pack in Honey, each pack contains enough product for two uses.

Brand new look at Watsons IMM

Watsons at IMM has undergone a facelift to give you a cleaner looking and brighter shop! Although I welcome the new look, I have a feel that the shop has shrunk in size. Is it just a feel or a real shrinking? Nevertheless, along with the new look, we welcome new brands and products as well! First in line is a new essence booth: In season is the Fruity theme, with fruity nail polishes, creme blusher, eye shadows and lip balm. Had gotten the lip balm in peach flavour prior to this, as I thought the lip balm color looked way too cute, but the toilet freshener scent totally puts me off. >< (Remind me again why did I buy it??) Up next is the CLIO Art Collection : Image of their famous baked eyeshadows and blushes Been reading CLIO Art Collection for quite some time, but it's the first time I have came across the Art Collection apart from the normal collection. The eyeshadows swatched smoothly and beautifully. Pink trio, I have my eyes on you! Apart from the eyes
