NEW BEAUTY LAUNCH ALERT! The latest drop from Sleek Makeup has landed in my lucky lap and I have spent the last few days getting to grips with my new fairground-themed friends.
The Whimsical Wonderland collection is a candy coloured range featuring a new eyeshadow palette, 3 new shades of Lip VIP (Sleek's semi matte lipstick, see the full review and range of Lip VIP swatches here)
I'm normally a neutrals, browns and blacks kinda gal but I do love a pop of colour on lips and cheeks. Sleek Makeup have got three new shades, basically a lilac purple, a juicy red and a coral orange. Coming in a cheek gel and a lipstick, perfect for those who like are matchy-matchy like me!

Need A Candy Coloured Burberry Dupe? The NEW Sleek Whimsical Wonderland Collection
So last week I went to the launch of the new Sleek LIP VIP Lipsticks with some blogger pals. I'm a big lipstick fan, and my 2016 resolution is to actually start wearing more of the lip colours I own instead of sticking to my usual, trusted three lipsticks. (sound familiar anyone?)

New Beauty Launch! Sleek Lip VIP Lipstick Review & Swatches
So, I'm having an affair..... I've only just treated myself to a Burberry Lip Cover and now there's already a new lipstick love in my life. Another one?! Already?!
Lipsticks are the best transformational tool when it comes to changing up your look up (this is the main justification I give myself everytime I buy ANOTHER one) and these days, it's not just about the colour. It's also about TEXTURE.
For example, a shiny red lipstick on me screams glamour, sex and confidence but a matte red lipstick says sophistication, poise and charm... (Not buying it? Nah, Mr FV didn't either. I got a big eyebrow raising thrown in my direction.)
Either way - I consider myself to be supremely weak when it comes to buying more beauty, sooo unsurprisingly I ended up treating myself to this Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet lipgloss/lipstick/amazingness.... HIYA NEW BEAUTY FRIEND!

So, I've never had a great history with matte finishes. Given that my lips are crispy preeetty much all year round, matte finishes tend to highlight dry patches and look a bit flaky on my lips.
(See my comparison of Matte vs Glossy Revlon lip finishes here.)
So imagine my excitement when I tried the Bourjois Velvet lip cream and it didn't highlight any dry bits at all! In fact, it looked really smooth!
