Sleek Makeup: Blush By 3.

Hello Beauties! A few months ago I finally ordered a couple of the Blush By 3 palettes from Sleek Makeup (UK based cosmetic line) and so far I really like them. The Sleek blushes I already own are some of my favorites, they are really pigmented, easy to apply, and last a while on my cheeks. You can see pics and swatches of some previously purchased blushes here.

There are 5 available on the Sleek website and of the 5 I picked up Flame and Lace.

Of the two Lace is my favorite but they are both really pretty! These are perfect for travel and a great way to test out their blushes if you haven't tried any. These are $12.49 which I think is a really great price for these.

Also I believe Sleek has changed their shipping prices, instead of a flat rate of $10 they charge by the amount of money you're spending. Which can be good, or bad LOL.

Thanks for reading and please leave your thoughts or questions in the comments below!

Favorites: Orange Blushes.

Hello Beauties! As promised in my favorite pink blushes post, here are my favorite orange blushes. I really love this shade of blush, especially during the warmer months. Out of all of these the one I usually reach for in the Fall/Winter is Taj Mahal.

Like my pink blushes some of these have some coral/red undertones but when I look at them they still lean more towards orange to me.
