**Malta Fashion Awards**

Hey everyone and welcome back to my new blog post which is all about the

Malta Fashion Awards!!

Last night, I was backstage at the MFA, as I was assisting another make up artist, her name is Sandra De Gaetano. If you haven't heard of her...you MUST check out her make up page!! She is fantastic and extremely talented. I feel so lucky that she asked me to be her assistant. I was so excited as this was my first time attending the awards. 


Being backstage was a great experience and I feel I learnt so much from it. Was great meeting new people and watching other make up artists and hair stylists. I love working with Sandra and we always have a great laugh with one another. We have some exciting projects coming up and I can't wait to show all you guys. So stay in tuned for our make up journey! 




In the photo above, this is Sandra working on one of the nominees.








Those are just a few photos I took when I was backstage and here is one of me! I didn't manage to take photos of myself as we were both so rushed and I was just super excited. 




I did a real quick make up look and it actually came really good. Barely shows in the photo, but I'll write another post with how to create a fast and easy make up look when in a bit of a rush. 

I feel so grateful that I had the opportunity to be backstage with other amazing make up artists. This is definitely a passion of mine and it was an amazing experience! Well done to all the winners last night and to everyone who was involved in the whole making of the show. 

Here is my Facebook page if you would like to see some make up looks that I like posting;

New Sleek "Matte Me" Lipsticks | Kylie Jenner Lip Kit Dupes | Lipstick Crazy

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog!


Today's blog post is going to be about the NEW Sleek "Matte Me" lipstick in the shade - Shabby Chic and about their new shades!! They just brought out 6 new shades and I swatched them all yesterday. You can purchase these lipsticks from Melita Health and Beauty....and you know what the best part is .......

THEY ARE ONLY 8 .99 euros!!

Yes, you read correctly....8.99. So worth it! They are such beautiful liquid lipsticks and they dry completely matte and they are super long lasting. If you haven't tried these lipsticks, I highly suggest that you do. All the shades are so beautiful and there is a great variety of colours. From nudes to red to dark shades - just amazing. Here is a photo of the 6 new shades; 



Whilst looking at these shades, I can already notice some dupes from Kylie Jenner's Lip Kit - Kourt K, Posie K, Candy K and 22. You can purchase Kylie's lip kit for nearly 45 euros including delivery and you can purchase these Sleek lipsticks for just 10 euros!! The difference is absolutely crazy....and to top it off, Sleek also have lip liners that match the shades for only 4 euros. So the most that you would spend for both is only 14 euros. Such a bargain! 

Out of the 6 shades shown above, I purchased the shade - Shabby Chic along with the matching lip liner, which is a roll up. Here it is below;





It is exactly the same as Posie K from Kylie's Lip Kit. Look at this below;




Exactly the same! So anyone who can't afford Kylie's lip kits - I really do suggest that you check out the collection of Sleek. They are great lipsticks and I just love them. I can't wait to buy some more colours, I am starting my small Sleek collection, till now I own 2 of their "Matte Me" lipsticks. 

  1. Shabby Chic
  2. Rioja Red (which is a dupe of "22") - a perfect red shade!

APRIL faves!

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog! 

So as you can tell from the title, this blog post is going to be about my April favourites. I have 9 beautiful items to show you guys and they are all so amazing. I know that you will love them! I mention a lot of these items on my Facebook page, so if you want to check out my page, here is the link - https://www.facebook.com/Suzannes-Eye-on-Make-Up-974851869227611/?fref=ts

So here they are:

  1. The Stefania D'Alessandro eye shadow in "Pearl"
  2. L'Oreal Faux Cils Superstar mascara
  3. Sleek "Matte Me" liquid lipstick in the colour red
  4. The Maybelline Instant Anti-Age concealer
  5. Gerard Cosmetics hydra-matte liquid lipstick in "Cher"
  6. NYX Matte Bronzer 
  7. Make Up Revolution "Pro Illuminate" highlighter
  8. Becca "Champagne Pop" highlighter
  9. The Make Up Revolution "Naked Underneath" palette
Let's talk about them now!


In the photo shown above, these are the first 5 items mentioned in the list. For those who follow me on my Facebook page, would know how much I love the Stefania D'Alessandro eye shadow. It's so beautiful and pigmented! There are different shades and you can purchase them from Melita Health and Beauty Pharmacy. Also, I mention Gerard Cosmetics a lot! This brand must be one of my favs, their hydra-matte lipsticks are just stunning and they dry completely matte and they are super long lasting. You can either purchase them from here;


Then there is the Sleek lipstick which is also stunning - purchased from Melita also! The last two are the concealer and mascara. I have tiny lashes, and honestly that mascara is a life saver. Has two ends because you first apply a white layer and then over top of that the black. 




Moving on! The NYX bronzer and 2 amazing highlighters which I am totally in love with! 
The bronzer is such a perfect shade and when applied, it really warms up the face perfectly. Of course it's matte and I just love matte. If you're looking for a bronzer - definitely suggest this one. The highlighters are definitely my fav - both so pigmented and you'll be glowing like the gods. I purchased the Make Up Revolution highlighter for only 4 pounds and from this site; 

And the Becca highlighter from here; http://www.spacenk.com/uk/en_GB/brands/l/laura-mercier/




Lastly, the Make Up Revolution "Naked Underneath" palette which of course could be purchased from their official site. I love this palette, amazing shades, pigmented and has shimmer and matte shades. If you want to see this palette swatched and a whole review - here is my blog post all about it.

I really hope that this post was helpful and that you enjoyed reading it! If you have any concerns or difficulties, feel free to leave a comment. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend and will see you in my next post! 

Which was your fav item out of all of them?


Lots of Love,
