Dabbling in Curacoa
After waiting weeks for my Sleek palettes and having them sit around for about a week, I delved into them knocking out looks for a few days. This look was initially supposed to be a video but I was out of frame for a lot of it, so here we are. I used the Curacoa palette.Labels: sleek cosmetics curacoa palette
Princess Tiana
I've not done a lot of Halloween looks this year but of the few I really wanted to get this done and loved the outcome. Tiana from Disney's The Princess and the Frog was charming and a lovely character, so doing a look from her was a given for me.

Urban Decay NAKED Palette
I finally got my hands on the ever illusive NAKED palette. Sephora happened to receive a shipment with extra palettes and instead of returning them, they stocked them onto the shelves. Thank You! So my cousin grabbed it and said we're sharing it, lol! Yes, sharing! That palette cost $48! Man that's a lot of money! (wilsontech1 voice)
So far it's a great palette that is ideal for neutral looks. I myself, am not one for neutral eyes but when I do wear them, I want something that is not going to come off ashy, which typically happens with light colors on my skin. This palette does the trick beautifully. The palette has awesome color payoff and a nice array of neutral tones.
This palette costs a pretty penny in my opinion. Will you get use out of it? Yes. This can easily be an everyday palette. On the other hand, if the money can go towards something else, definitely take into consideration that there are alternatives for neutral palettes that are far less expensive. NYX, Wet n Wild, and BH Cosmetics offer neutral palettes that are great.
