Sleek Makeup - Pout Paint - Peachy Keen

This is a light orange lip colour that claims to be highly pigmented.

This was patchy, poorly pigmented, streaky, too thin, and all round unacceptable.

I had to wipe it off and apply a different lipstick.

Does this sound like the actions of someone who had all the pigment they needed?

Price: 4/5 ($11.95 for 8mL)

Scent: 3/5 (faintly candy orange)

Sleek - Eye Dust - Spellbound

Initially I was quite worried by this, it looked too big to be eye powder.

But I wet my brush and tried anyway.

I was right to be worried. This is messy, unwieldy, applies unevenly, and doesn't look that great on.

Avoid this junk.

Sleek MakeUP - Power Plump - Lip Crayon - Berry Burst

A lip colour from the April Glossybox!

This is a really nice medium brown-pink colour! 
It's not too warm or too dark for me.

It also applies really smoothly and is pretty opaque, you can wear it without a lip liner.

Unfortunately it is in a plastic pencil, which is going to be a pain to sharpen to get more product.

Also, bigger issue, the 'plumping' aspect literally makes it feel like it is burning!
You can put a sticky lip gloss underneath as a barrier, but it sucks hard.

The first time I used it I thought I was possibly giving me a chemical burn.

I have used lip plumping lip colours and glosses before and none have hurt like this one!

Why is this nice shade ruined by this awful burning sensation?!

And it is basically because of the irritating components that I can't recommend this.

Price: 3/5 ($11.20 AUD for 3.6g)
Scent: 1/5 (a faint mix of metal and marshmallow... metal is not a pleasant smell)
Effectiveness: 1/5

L'Oreal Paris - Revitalift - Day Cream

Apparently anti-wrinkle and extra firming, my face didn't change much with regular use (but I didn't expect it to either).

Let's go from the outside in. 

Solid glass container with some serious weight to it... you could bludgeon someone with it!

NO WITNESSES!

The lid is plastic, but a nice metallic red. The printing on both lid and jar is sleek and simple.

The cream is a good thickness for daywear and smells like sunscreen... which makes sense because it has sunscreen in it.
Funnily enough, I can't find an SPF rating. So I'm going to say it is SPF 1 elephant.

You can't prove otherwise!

It feels moisturising immediately and I quite enjoyed using it.

It contains Pro-Retinol A, vitamin e, and Par-Elastyl (no idea what this last one is).

Close enough.

QVS - Clever Concealer Brush

This came in a Bellabox and I love it for on-the-go make-up (Read: most of the make up I apply is while I am on a train).

The bristles are soft and don't fall out. It picks up and applies powder well. The brush cover (which is great when you keep it in a handbag) is long enough to actually stay on and can be attached to the other end as a handle (extension).

The silver design is sleek and durable.

I really like this brush and highly recommend it for a travel kit.

Price: 5/5 ($6.99)
User friendly?: 5/5

QVS - 2 in 1 Retactable Eye Brush

I got this double-ended brush in a Bellabox and I have to say, it is great!

Both ends come with a cap, to keep your purse clean, and they are retractable, so the bristles don't get all jacked up when you re-cap.
The brushes pick up product well and do not loose bristles everywhere.

Just a really great eyeshadow brush.
