Sleek MakeUP Circus Palette Tutorial

I promised i'd do a look using the Sleek MakeUP Circus Palette. I thought it was going to be a bit of a challenge to create a wearable look as it's packed with so many bright colours. I had a search through some blog posts to see if I could find some inspiration or a look to re-create. 

I stumbled upon a look on Danielle's blog which I decided to re-create. It is actually really simple and easy to do and is something I would happily wear in public. Danielle's look is a lot neater than mine but I was really pleased with how it turned out and I think it's a really nice summery look. It's quite tropical and reminds me of Hawaii!

I would have made this a FOTD but I was having a bad hair day! The shadows were really pigmented and weren't chalky. I found that I only needed a tiny bit of each colour to get a good payoff especially for the pink in my crease. I also used the white as a highlight under my brow.

Here are the colours I used:

    I've always been put of the circus palette purely because i didn't think i'd be able to come up with any wearable looks, but I'd definately wear this x
