I love the colour palette this summer, neutral & pastel colours are so pretty! So far the weather in Scotland hasn't been suitable for any new clothes so I've been embracing the new trends through my make up & jewellery. The first thing I got was a ring from New Look, it's shaped like a flower & it's a cute pink colour (it also comes in white). The next thing was earrings I got from Peacocks for £ 2.50 - what a bargain!! They are a similar shape to the ring but they are a creamy, white colour & I love them! I also picked up a bracelet in my local PDSA shop where I volunteer. It is made up of 3 sets of pearls which are held together with a diamonte clip & it's right up my street!

Sleek palette Storm 578: A Review
I bought this palette last week after seeing it recommended by Imogen on the FoxyLocksExtensions channel on YouTube. It was only £4.99 & has 12 colours. I had not previously heard of the Sleek brand & probably would have walked past the stand before however I thought I would check it out.
They had a couple of different palettes but I chose the Storm 578 one as I liked the look of the gold colours in the top row. I've used it a few times since I got it & was able to create some really nice looks (Click here to see the one I did for a St Patrick's Day contest on YouTube).
Some of the shades are shimmery & some are matte, I usually prefer eye shadows with a shimmer however some of these are just a bit too shimmery for me, for day to day wear at least! However they are very well pigmented & easy to blend.
I would defiantly recommend it if you care looking for a cheap, good quality product & will be checking the Sleek range in the future to see if there's anything else I fancy!
p.s. please excuse the crap picture haha!
Barry M Nail Paint - 293 Grey
So I um'd & aw'd about this colour for a while but finally decided to just go for it last week! The reason I was so undecided about it was the past couple of colours I've bought from Barry M have been a bit of a disappointment however I really like this one! Shame it's now Spring & I don't know how much wear I'm gonna get out of till next winter haha!
The Barry M nail paints are one of my favourite brands of nail varnish I really like the texture, easy application, fast drying & long lasting! I also really like how there is a very wide range of colours & often different shades to what you can get elsewhere. Some brands play it a bit safe with their colours but Barry M really goes all out to provide something different & is great for whatever the new colours of the season are.
