Sleek Makeup Gloss Me Review and Swatches

I reviewed  Sleek Makeup Matte Me Lip Cream in Fandango Purple about a month ago, today’s another Sleek Makeup feature! Due to the success of the Sleek Makeup Gloss Me range, they have launched another six shades for the collection on 2nd July 2014. The shades are Angel Falls, Hawaii Honey, Maria Maria, Thai Orchid, Forbidden City and Phoenix Rising. I’d say that they aimed two create two contrasting sets with the lighter shades inspired by the far west and the darker shades inspired by the far east. 🙂 In today’s post, I’m reviewing three Gloss Me products from the range: Haiwaii…

China Trip: Sightseeing in Harbin Part 1/2

China Trip: Sightseeing in Harbin Part 1/2

As some of you know, I spent the first two weeks of July in China. It was a fairly relaxed trip with lots of shopping, a fair bit of sightseeing and a rather large amount of food consumption. The original plan was to spend the first week in Harbin (visiting family) and the second in Beijing (as tourists), but plans changed when both my boyfriend and I both got food poisoning (on the day of our flight to Beijing) from, presumably eating a badly cooked duck at the hotel we stayed at. So plans changed and we had to delay…
