Sleek is a make up brand I have been lusting at for some time now. I'm always seeing it on other bloggers pages and in magazines. As it is not available in Ireland (apart from online) I had been become a green eyed monster looking at all the lovely products I couldn't get my hands on! As my parents live in the U.K. my Mam said she would bring some back for me. This will be the first of a few Sleek posts/ reviews. Starting with a look at Sleek's 'Acid i-Divine Palette'. (€8.50)
The Sleek 'Acid i-Divine Palette' is a palette that certainly stands out. It contains a mixture of vibrant neon bright colours and some more muted colours for those who are not feeling brave enough for the neon! There are 12 colours in this palette a mixture of both matte and shimmer eyeshadows. They are highly pigmented apart from a few of the neon colours but most neon eye shadows are like this.
Swatches on hand |
My favourite colours in the palette is the blues, the grey and black. I have so many eye shadow palettes, but I don't have any grey colours so I'm loving the grey in this palette! The blues are also gorgeous and work well with the grey colour.
Some of the colours are very 'out there' and I don't think I would be brave enough to wear them on a normal day to day basis. If only I had this as a teenager I would have LOVED it! (I was like a rainbow back then with colour). There are some shades that are perfect for certain times of year however! I know I will be turning to this palette come St. Patrick's day! The Green, White and Orange will be perfect for creating a St. Patrick's Day look!
Perfect for St. Patrick's Day! |
Overall I'm really impressed with the pigmentation of this eye palette. I also love the packaging. I really like the black case because it's sturdy and closes firmly. I also love that there is a mirror inside. It's also a perfect size for sticking in your bag. (unlike some of my Urban Decay Palettes! I would nearly need a suitcase they are so big!)
I'm hoping Sleek come to Ireland soon as there are more products I'm dying to try out. Keep an eye out on my blog as I will have more Sleek reviews soon!
