Summer has finally decided to show itself in the UK, and I am enjoying it immensely! (I'm currently writing this as I sit outside in the sun with an ice lolly, and my summer playlist blasting in my ears-this is the life!)
Although i've been away for two weeks abroad, you wouldn't really guess, as I hardly tan! Before I left for Menorca, I purchased the "Sleek Face Form Palette" in Light, and it's honestly become a summer makeup staple for me! Read on to find out why..

I was in Superdrug, and I was mainly in for the Eyebrow Stylist, but I also wanted to pick up another of the "Face Contour" Kits, as I had one last year, and I loved it. However, they didn't have them in stock, so I settled for this, as i'd heard great things about it. I didn't know what to expect, but I sure wasn't disappointed!
The packaging, as usual, is beautiful, I love the (excuse the pun) sleek feeling of it, and although the black packaging gets dirty fingerprints n it quite easily, I love the simplicity of it. I've raved enough about the sleek packaging on my blog many a time before, so I won't bore you.
The bronzer is really lovely, it applies really smoothly, and is super easy to blend out, and create a natural contour, or just an all round glow, depending on what look you want. It's also really easily build able, so if you want it more dramatic, then it's really easy t do. There's absolutely no shimmer in it, which in my opinion is my favourite kind of bronzer, as it's versatile for both contouring, and just an overall glow. I find that bronzer doesn't last to long on me, but this lasted a good few hours, so  I was quite pleased.
The highlighter is nice too. I'm not a huge highlighting person, but I do put it on the top of my cheekbones. This did the job in creating a natural highlight, but it is really shimmery, so in this case, I literally only use the tiniest bit, otherwise you could end up looking like a disco ball!
However, it was the blusher that I was most surprised about. If you've been reading my blog for a while now, you may or may not know that I don't wear blusher.. ever. As I have quite a red face, I feel that blusher emphasizes it. The blush in this I believe is the very raved about 'rose gold' blush, so I was excited to try it, and I was so happy with it. It's such a natural shade, and it just gives the right amount of glow, helping me to look naturally flushed, and it doesn't bring out my red face. I can't explain it, but i'm sure you can see from the swatch above how pretty the colour was. One downside was that it didn't last really long on my face, so that's something to think about when purchasing this.

Overall, I was really pleased with this, and I would recommend it to you all, because it's really easy to slip in your makeup bag, and it's all together, rather than having a separate blush, bronzer and highlight (I love compact things!!) I would probably give this 4.5 stars! And at £9.99, it isn't exactly breaking the bank, and i'ma ll for beauty on a budget!
