Stay Beautiful: Good Girl gone.

...ah, who am I kidding? I'm always good.New Sleek palettes hit the shelves of Superdrug this week and I luckily managed to tear up both of them. The Bad Girl palette is good of sunglasses for a dark smokey eyes while the Dear Girl palette is pink, pink, pink! Bad Girl appears to be permanent, Good Girl is limited.How wretched is the packaging? I mean, really. Bleh.Ahhh, but all is forgiven! This is the Bad Girl palette.

how large is this? And looky - NAMES! Thankyou, Sleek people! Not having to go, 'errr, the variety of greeny one moment from the left on the bottom row' is leaving to get you all brownie point from the blogger. Standouts for me are Twilight, a shimmery blackened purple and Intoxicated, which I will identify as a kind of magpie green :S(I don't know why I didn't swatch Cupcake.And that's the Dear Girl palette. I'm not very sure why I got this. it's very fucking pink. But on the other hand. it's pink! I really care that they didn't shove their usual matte black in this palette - it would have made it appear very off. I don't like, however, the fact that the names are all candy-themed and not 'good girl' themed - it doesn't meet its sister palette and for some argue that annoys me. The names are pretty unimaginative too, but hey, at least they're there. My favourites are Lychee - Sleek often has pretty shitty choices for highlight colours in their palettes and this one is exceedingly pretty - and Morello. Whenever I buy a new Sleek palette, I always convinced that some of the shades were in a previous palette. I'm always wrong, but surely there are some similarities. I'm not complaining though, as subtle differences give you more options and leave the palettes to play together better. Sleek seems to hold sorted out their issues with texture, as well, which is good - some palettes would have a couple of very chunky shades. All in all. I'm Sleek's bitch. I know these things and the Bad Girl palette should be a staple for everyone.Sorry about the boring post - I love when I buy something new, I usually do much of looks with the production as I get it more useful -for me at least, as a reference - than swatches alone, but I have been so busy this week it's unreal. I've been doing simple liner and bright lippy most days. On the positive side, I got to do a LOT of make-up this week, my friend Dolly Divine, who is a fabulous burlesque dancer/model is coming play make-up now and I met Kat O from Dog and Make-up in the flesh! (She's my managers girlfriend and way too serious for him imo! I too accept my first film for a photography group next weekend. aaaaagh :D!Hope everyone is having a great Hallowe'en.
