Sleek 'Rose Gold' Blush


Sleek are one of my favourite high street make up brands, their products are so pigmented and are really good value for money! I think that most people who have bought this blush, bought it because it's supposed to be an excellent dupe for NARS 'Orgasm'. However, I have never tried a NARS blush because they're so god damn expensive but I have swatched one in Selfridges and although they are very much the same colour, 'Rose Gold' has a colour that is much stronger and has more of a golden shimmer rather than gold speckles of glitter. Which could transfer around your face after you have been wearing it for a couple of hours, which you don't want.
I am not really a blush fan, I wouldn't go out having seen one on a blog/vlog thinking 'I need this now!' like I would with a lipstick or a nail varnish, but your make up really does look out of place without one. So if you're like me who isn't really bothered about having loads of blushers knocking about I would pick this one, or a Sleek one at least. Sleek blushes come in loads of different colours and are conveniently handbag size with a little mirror, plus most of them you can get for under £5!
I have had this blush since about April I would say (which is when I took these photos of it looking all clean and beautiful) - it now looks like an animal has bashed its foot straight through the middle, it's loved nonetheless. It has lasted me well throughout these months and I will either be repurchasing or checking out a few other Sleek blushes!
Todays Listening: Daughter - Human
I haven't done one of these in ages! I keep forgetting at the end of my posts like a wolly. Anyway, I have been absolutely loving Daughter recently. Their album, in my opinion is one of the best from 2013 and is so chilled out and calm. It's a good one to sit on the bus to and stare longingly out of the window pretending you're somewhere else. The album is called 'If You Leave' and 'Human' is one of my favourites on there, as well as 'Still' and 'Youth' which is there most recent single. I've been playing this so much recently on my radio show, I'm sure the people of Salford are getting sick of it already.

  1. I'm not a huge fan but this looks really pretty :) I think Rose Gold is the 'in' thing now, isn't it?

    1. Yes, I would say it is but if it's the 'in' thing it must be doing something right! I think for the price it is brilliant! x

  4. Its a shame we don't have Sleek here. I am so much in need of a blush (and a lot of makeup things in general) but i am stuck with assignments deadlines and all. Hopefully will go out and purchase some after i am done.

    Thank you for the music recommendation. Have given it a listen and it sounds good. Will be checking the album soonish. :) xx
