My Experience with www.sleekmakeup.com


So what is sleek? For those who don't know it is a makeup brand based in London. Sleek is a drugstore brand, very affordable and high quality from what I've seen on youtube. You can buy sleek cosmetics from London which means that we obviously can't get it in Australia.

And so begins my journey with www.sleekmakeup.com. In order to make a purchase online you'll need to make an account with them. This takes a few seconds, not a big deal. 

14th of August at about 9.30pm Australian time which is about 12.30pm London time:
I placed my order.The process was very simple, just follow the steps (you're reading this post so you'll be fine). They don't allow you to pay through paypal  so you'll need a mastercard, visa, visa debit card etc. 

I received an email stating that my order has been accepted (at this point the package hasn't been shipped yet). I double checked and made a minor error with my address (AAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH). 

15th of August: 
I sent them an email with the correct address apologising for the mistake. 

Morning 16th of August:
I received an email back (fast right...) asking for my web code (you'll get this after your order is completed). So I sent an email to the worker assigned to me then a few seconds later received an automated email stating that he wouldn't be back at work until the 30th of August. REALLY...REALLY... 

I kept reading and noticed that there were 2 email addresses (for urgent queries): one for IT assistance and the other for sales and distribution (PERFECT). Well... So I forwarded the email with all the details. 

9.04pm, 16th of August:
FINALLY...I've gotten the confirmation email that the package has been dispatched with the correct address and now all that was left to do was wait... 

So just in case your confused:
(1) you receive an email saying that your order has been ACCEPTED
(2) you receive a 2nd email saying that they have dispatched/sent out your order (when your card is charged)

23rd of August:

SURPRISINGLY GOT A PACKAGE IN THE MAIL...YAY!!! SO EXCITED.


They get a thumbs up for fast delivery and good customer service so I'd highly recommend checking them out. It took 6 business days, exactly one week including the weekend. Which was ridiculously fast.  


They've changed the packaging of the eye shadows which I found weird. But who really cares I can't wait to use these products.

Haul: Mecca

Honestly you're probably sick of seeing hauls on my blog right? But I just love hauls.  First...story time. I seriously can't remember where I first saw it but when I did, I knew I had to have it.  The colours were so beautiful, the packaging was so chic and the value for money was just too good. Plus with Mecca now trying to compete with Sephora (coming soon to Australia) I knew the Australian price would be somewhat reasonable.  It is...wait for it...the Nars Virtual Domination Cheek palette.  First I tried buying it off spacenk which is an England based company (if I'm not mistaken) but sadly they don't ship Nars products to Australia (what a bummer). Then I was looking up reviews to determine if this was something I really really really wanted. And so the obsession began. I sussed out when it was coming to Australia then stalked the Mecca page for about 4-5 days (not even gonna lie), it finally popped up and I added it straight to my ...

Review: Optiva Aqua-Capture Serum and Nourishing Night Cream

So firstly my skin type is dry/normal. I'm prone to hormonal breakouts. Every time I get a pimple it scars whether or not I've popped it (gross I know). So my main issue are my scars. But like I mentioned I do have somewhat dry skin and I really do feel like these have helped with my dry patches and preventing my skin from flaking.  1. Optiva Aqua-Capture Serum  30ml $24 " This super concentrated skin hydrating serum has a light formulation, which is easy to apply and works deep into the skin. The serum strengthens the skin barrier in just two weeks improving its tolerance for the long term. Specially formulated to offer an immediate comforting and calming effect. Apply after cleansing and before moisturising both morning and night. Clinically proven to reveal healthier skin in just two weeks. " Overall I think this is a really nice serum, but honestly I'm not really a serum girl and this product hasn't converted me. I feel like it's an un...

Dressale Wishlist WARNING

So sorry my followers and readers I've deleted my post because I don't want to be associated with this company.

I hope you all forgive me and from now on I will trust my instincts and if the company seems dodgy I'll let you all know.  http://www.bloglovin.com/frame?post=2506729123&group=0&frame_type=a&blog=3328770&link=aHR0cDovL2NyZWF0aXZlLWQtemluZS5ibG9nc3BvdC5jb20vMjAxNC8wMy9kcmVzc2FsZS13aXNoLWxpc3Qtbm90LWxlZ2l0Lmh0bWw&frame=1&click=0&user=0
