My Face But Better: Sleek Contour Kit Light

I'm a bit of a make up novice, I love love love products and playing around with them but my knowledge of how to get the best from it is slightly limited. YouTube videos are my saviours for working out the best ways of applying and creating looks.

Contouring I'm sure is nothing new to most of you but if you're not sure what it is it's basically the "art of defining, highlighting and enhancing facial features", bronzing parts of your face with help to disguise certain area's and highlighter's will enhance. If like me you are not blessed with cheekbones then contouring really is a great method or trying to make it look as though you are. You can use a highlighter and bronzer to get the same kind of effect but I find these kits really useful to carry around. Sleek's Contour Kit in Light is nothing new but it's one that I've not been able to get my mitts on until now.

First of all, I don't understand why Sleek use the images they do on their packaging, I would love it so much more if this lady wasn't on it. Nothing against her mind, but I just find it all a bit 70's and slightly tacky. I absolutely love the logo on the palette and think this would make for a much sleeker outside box but hey ho.

One thing Sleek has done that fills me with joy is provide a little leaflet giving tips on how to use the kit to define your cheekbones and slim down your nose. They are so easy to follow and very handy if you don't 100% know what to do. A little YouTube search though is also very helpful.

The product itself is perfect for my skin tone right now (got a bit of a summer tan still looming from V fest) but I kinda feel that in the winter the bronzer will be maybe a bit too dark for my face. They could do with something perhaps a little bit lighter than the Light version. Having said that though I think both the bronzer and highlighter gel well together and really compliment each other, especially love that the bronzer is a matte finish with no glitter. The texture is smooth and very easy to work with, a little does go a long way though as it's highly pigmented!! The kit has finally given me cheekbones and housed all together in one little compact is definitely a bonus, I'm all for touching up on the go.
