Achieve those Sleek and chiseled cheekbones!

Don't lie ladies, we all want those celebrity chiseled cheekbones that have swamped the media over the past year. Apparently looking like we've been stuck in a wind tunnel has never seemed more appealing thanks to Kimmy Kardashian. But is it possible to get the high end look at an affordable price? YES YES YES, thanks to Sleek MakeUp! A god send for us unfortunates on a budget. 

 This Sleek face Contour Kit has managed to make it to my favourites, an exciting prospect considering I'm incredibly fussy when it comes to my makeup and skin. It's my sleek and secret tool, always at the ready in my handbag when those cheekbones need chiseling. 

I have to admit, I was incredibly excited when it got delivered the other day as I've never thought to use a contouring kit- mainly because my cheekbones aren't exactly existent so I didn't think using one would make a difference. But I guess magic can happen, because definition is now my best friend! 

It's also so affordable, so it made sense for me to try it; buying over priced products doesn't appeal to me, especially when I don't know if it will live up to the price. But this kit is worth every penny and probably my most genius buy in a long long time, and I have purchased some shockers in my time. 

The little kit of heaven contains a pressed powder and a highlighter, perfectly complimenting each other  to create subtle but noticeable definition. I am so obsessed with the highlighter I think I go a little over board with it, but you can never have enough right? It's so pigmented and girly so perfect for nights out or those days when less is more.
I decided to go for the lightest contouring kit, because I'm naturally quite pale and I didn't want the contouring to be too BAM in your face. I know I come from Essex, but the over the top orange look is definitely not my thing. Less is always more in my eyes- apart from nights out, then go crazy.

I like to apply the pressed powder on the apple of my cheeks and just underneath where my cheekbone should be. This creates a darker, defined look whilst applying the highlighter to the upper and lower area of the cheekbones emphasises the contouring, adding a beautiful shimmer. It's also so pigmented so lasts most of the day... who ever thought it could be so easy? However, due to my highlighting obsession I also like to apply it under the brow bone, tip of the nose and cupids bow. I find it creates a more natural, glowing look- although the first time I used it I looked like an explosion in a glitter factory… not the best look!

However, don't fall into the trap of getting too ambitious with your contouring- I think poor Linsey Lohan can show us the consequences of this. But of course, as always, Kim shows us how contouring should really look: chic, subtle and gorgeous! 

Thanks to Sleek, it doesn't matter if your cheekbones are kind of.. a tiny bit.. not there, because a little tweak with this contouring kit can go a long way! It's my favourite drug store product at the moment and an incredibly worthy REPURCHASE! Whether you've used it or not, let me know what you think!
