Right now i love coloured hair. Brights, pastels, and grungy mixtures of unusual colours.

A Little Review of 17 Photo Flawless Primer...
I have always been hit and miss with primers, but i'm always interested in giving them a go. This one is from Boots priced at £4.99.
The primer is silicone based, so glides on the skin effortlessly and leaves a silky soft finish- which is neither greasy or unatural feeling like i find with the elf one. I do feel and see a noticeable improvment in the finish of my foundation with this underneath. The foundation seems to sit better, and look more natural.
I also like using this product alone on my skin without foundation. Although it gives a matte finish i do like to use powder also. I must say of all the primers i've tried this is certainly a favourite (although nowhere near RMK which is amazing!)
The only real moan is that there is only 15ml of product in the small tube, which i can't see lasting long. Although only a small amount is needed each time.
Very impressed. 4/5

A Little Review of Sleeks Sugar May Pout Polish
In my opinion Sleeks Pout Polish range is pretty much the same as Macs range of lip conditioners except a lot cheaper. I particularly love Sleeks Electro Peach (miles more than Mac's Gentle Coral).
The shade Sugar May is from the Spring Avec La Peche Collection and has a pretty floral print on the packaging. In the pot it looks like a beautiful soft peachy colour, but actually goes on sheer which was a disappointment for me, as Sleek are usually on top form with pigmentation.
My other moan is that it both smells and tastes really strongly of plastic, which isn't nice!
Overall i'm not a fan of this one.

More new things...
A few more new bits i've got lately. Some accessories from ASOS, including a leather cuff from the mens section (the mens jewellery is way better), and a pretty Oasis rose headband.
A headband from Boots interesting (but stupidly overpriced) new jewellery collection, and the 17 crackle topcoat.
George at Asda have revamped their makeup so i bought a couple if things out of curiousity- a tinted moisturiser- Hint of Tint (£4), and cheek stain- Cheeky Tint! (£2.50)
In Superdrugs i stocked up on more lip products (as if i need any more...) the New Sleek Pout Polish Sugar May, Revlon's new Just Bitten in Gothic, Gosh's new lip marker in berry, and a Gosh lipstick in shocking coral.
